You're suppose to say it's a great atty
My brain was going faster than my fingers... I have one in my rotation, and it can't top the pancake dripper, but it defiantly a contender..

If you are a lung hitter you will like it

I really thought it a great design for bottom feeding. It's like an oversized airflow Omerta. Its side airflow yet top feed without the concern of leaking. Angled cutouts for swirly™ air action. Replace that copper screw with a drilled SS one.

Then along comes the dream crusher...

My ChiNarDA is awesome. Zero leak issues. Did a spaced single, Clapton(28x2,32), Z coil,2.5mm, 4 wrap in honor of sloth. It's performing excellently...

Don't know when or why I stopped doing spaced....less gunking with spaced I feel...

Just a little shout out to Corey for the silver screws and the silver tipped +contact pins for my Reo's... :headbang::toast::vapor:

I have 1 converted so far, (haven't ran #'s yet), been vaping it for an hour or so and there is a definite difference so far. I should first say the battery I had in my Grand was @ 3.5v when I finished the install and I must say I felt no need to put in a fresh battery right away. An hour later it was @ 3v so I changed it... Holy :censored:!! The next coils in this will be in the mid 3Ω range for sure...

I'm running the O-16 on top w/ dual 24g A1 2.5mm .26Ω / RxW inside. It is definitely hitting harder than my other Grand w/ same atty but with dual 26g Ni80 2.5mm .29Ω / RxW inside and the battery in it was @ 3.8v...

A couple observations so far... I will get back in a day or so with voltage drop #'s...

Not an instantaneous firing as beckdg mentioned he gets with his conversion, but not as delayed as the standard contacts...

Button push is much heavier, comparable to the HD Reo contacts...

I will be starting to build somewhere in the mid 3Ω range to start with from now on as .26Ω is a scorcher to say the least @4.2v...

For anyone wanting to do this also, I will advise you that it wasn't cheap to do firstly and you better know a thing or two about Ω's law, battery, and device safety... Proceed with caution...

Tools needed for conversion was...
Dremel w/ a grinding stone and a standard cordless drill
8-32 tap and #29 Jobber Drill - 1ea
#8 F/W - 1ea
#8 Neoprene F/W - 2ea

Pics to follow....

ETA... Forgot to give a shout out to @beckdg for the idea to convert my Reo's...:headbang: Thanks... btw, I found something better than brass for the negative contact!!! Pricey, but much better...

You can dry burn. Treat it no differently than kanthal. It's been advised to not excessively dry burn, as in like let it glow red hot for long, just gentle pulses - but in all honesty that was always good advice for kanthal as well. So yeah. Treat it like kanthal and enjoy the killerness ;)
