The Avocado is manufactured by Geekvape. The Geekvape company is entering the market with three high quality atomizers. " Griffin , Aeolus and Avocado".
The Avocado rta from Geekvape is a Genesis tank with Velocity style dual post design deck. This full 22mm sized deck is perfect for easily building fancy coil setups . It is the easiest to rebuild rta deck . It has a 3ml tank section on the bottom. four 4,5 mm sized holes for your wicks. A dome shaped top cap is used to increase the flavor. It has airflow control with multi settings.
It has 22mm diameter and 33mm height (excluding the drip tip and thread) which makes it very short for a tank. This compact sized RTA is no bigger than a normal sized RDA.
It has a ceramic baffle part with an airhole in it. This baffle reduces the chamber size in single coil configurations which increases the flavor. It also directs the air coming from the opposite side of the coil right onto the coil. The baffle has two plugs built on it , which are used for plugging the unused fill holes during single coil use.
In a dual coil configuration , you use all the four holes for wicking. This leaves no extra hole for filling. But after a few tries mastering the technique , it is not difficult to use one of the occupied wick holes for refilling. You have to squeeze the wick a little to make some room for the eliquid to flow. Then fluff the wick with a needle again.
I used the Geekvape 521 tab for taking these pictures and rebuilding the Avocado RTA. It is good sized for supporting your atomizer while rebuilding your coils and has enough weight to be stable. Works with a single 18650 battery. Can measure resistance between 0,01 ohms – 9,9 ohms. Has a fire function so you can dryburn or remove hotspots while the atomizer is threaded on it. Can fire down to 0,1 ohm coils. Also it has very good looks.
For Clapton single coil setup , I used the 28ga*2+32ga Clapton wire from Geekvape. This wire has two 28ga Kanthal A1 ‘s side by side and 32ga Kanthal A1 wire is wrapped over them. This gives it an oval shape rather than a circular shape which increases the contact surface to the wick.
Prepared a 7 wraps clapton coil with 3mm inner diameter. Because of this being a genesis tank , you leave the ends of your wicks longer so you can stuff it in the wick holes down to the bottom of your tank.
With a single Clapton coil setup , the flavor is very good between 30-35 watts.
Also tested it with 0,32 mm Kanthal coil 2,5 mm inner diameter 9 wraps at 15-17,5 watts. With the airflow setting way down to test for mouth inhale type vaping. Avocado RTA is also suitable for mouth inhale type vaping with very good flavor inspite of the low wattage. Video of it;
I also tested it with a dual Clapton coil , 7 wraps with 3mm inner diameter. Can be vaped at 70-75 watts without dry hits and it has the best flavor I have experienced so far.
You can see Avocado deck side by side with a Velocity RDA deck in the video. Refilling with dual coil setups also can be seen in the video. After a few tries you can master the filling method.
The Avocado RTA has very good looks and it is very tiny for a tank. Has a full RDA sized build deck which makes building fancy coils very easy. It may be the easiest RTA deck to build on. With 4,5 mm wick holes it has very good liquid feeding , so less chance of dry hits. 3ml of liquid capacity is not much and this results in frequent refills.
The flavor it produces is very good and in a dual Clapton coil setup , it has exceptionally good flavor production .
In a dual coil setup , you have to use one of the occupied wick holes for refilling , this is not hard but a dedicated fill hole would be better.
It comes with ; extra glass tank , extra ceramic baffle , extra o-rings and hardware .
