Looking for recommendations on my first RDA / RDTA setup.

[Plan-B]

Hello all,

I'm looking to get my first RDA or RDTA set up and I was wondering if I could get your recommendations on what would be best for my situation. I am mainly a MTL vaper but can direct lung as well if I'm in the mood. I prefer flavor over clouds, but would love to have the best of both worlds if possible. I prefer smooth over a big throat hit and I prefer a cooler vape as I find a lot of heat makes for a harsher hit, especially when going direct lung. I am currently using two Joyetech AIOs and a Joyetech eVic VTwo with the Cubis Pro tank and I use 0.6 ohm MTL coils in all of them. I'm currently making my own liquid, usually 50/50 at 6 to 9 ml nicotine.

I think a RDTA would be a better choice for me over RDA, as I'll be using this on the go at times. As long as whatever device I get is fairly simple and easy to use, I should be good. I have no experience building coils but would like to eventually get into that aspect. For that reason, I'd like a device that I can also purchase pre-built coils for. Recommendations on coils and wicking material would be appreciated as well. I'm thinking a variable wattage mod would be the way to go, but I'd like thoughts on it as I'm unsure. Regardless, I would like the mod to have a cylinder form factor.

Cheers,
Chris

Chris i would go RTA over either RDA or RDTA.

The reason is that both RDAs and RDTA atties are notorious for leaking when laid on the side.

Best RTAs i have used

Silverplay Nano
Goblin Mini
Compact Kayfun*
Orchid V3
Kayfun Monster Mini
Regular Kayfun*

* denotes MTL.

Heard wonderful things about nage, siren, and Serpent Mini ( had one, but couldn't build it for my messed up left hsnd), Merlin Mini.

These attys have good reputstions but have not used them

And just to make things even more complicated, I'd suggest an RDA as I find rta's more prone to leaking. Just drip, vape and then set down. No leaks because there is nothing to leak.

You forgot people over drip SP there IS Juice to leak

People can also overfill tanks, not build them correctly, and not wick them correctly. I don't have any leaking issues as I don't over drip.

I use the limitless plus but the newer classic version has the option of the imc pre built coil. Plenty of prewrapped coils available nowadays but obviously cheaper to buy wire on a spool and a coil jig to wrap your own.

Hi Chris,

Joyetech Tron /Ego mega (V1 or V2) and kanthal 1Ω CL-R coils.

Have fun
I

Does anyone know whether the iJoy Exo or Wotofo Serpent would work for MTL? I'm just starting to build. I have a Kayfun Lite Plus v2 clone (EHPro), but I find the draw is too restricted for me. I also have an authentic Kayfun v5 en route, but I'm wondering what other options there might be.

My favorite vapes:

1. Kayfun 5 (RTA)
2. Kayfin 4 (RTA)
3. Avocado 24 (RDTA)
4. Hadaly (RDA)

This is just my style so it may mean nothing to you..

There's so many sub ohm tanks.
A simple single coil kangertech subtank mini vape very good and are prone to leaks,a breeze to setup and even come with a rebuilable deck.
If you look around you can get one very reasonably.
A sub tank mini is great starter for making your own coils and wicking.
Kayfun 5 is easy to set up and is another single coil flavor tank.It sets up just like subtank mini except a bit easier to fill.
