Figured i'd give a short review/first impressions after a day/night with the SilverPlay by Project Sub-Ohm (House brand of VaporDNA) and take a few quick pics for those interested... and share what build turned out the best for myself after trying a few different ones.
A little about my cape preference first...
I'm a big genny fan and hold my Sat22s, Lons etc. in highest regard. I'm also a huge kayfun and rda guy... however i'm not a super-sub ohm'er or cloud chaser. That said i like all draws from tight in my gennys to super airy in my RDAs. I've found with the SP i can build high resistance and shut off the air flow and get a Satt22 tight draw (real tight) or open her up with a low resistance build and get a (better than) Plume Veil quality airflow/vape out of it.
Currently i've found my personal sweet spot with 26g dual ~2.5mm 8wraps that come in at 0.5 ohm wicked with KGD a little tighter that i do my RDAs. (Pro tip: pre-bend your negative terminal wire legs so you don't block/go over the juice channels... helps a little.)
Best way to wick the SP is to cut your cotton/rayon (ugh, do people still use that lol) so that the tails just fill the top, wider portion of the deck wick slots. Do not, try to wick down to the base where the chimney screws down... in my experience that slowed wicking.(which may be ok at high resistance builds) Just be careful screwing down the chimney base so not to snag your wicks and pull them out of the channel. I recommend juicing your wicks fully before screwing on the chimney so you can "paste" them in place. (Yeah, ignore the left side negative post screw lol, my fault i cross threaded it a little and realized that after taking the pics... was going a little too fast! Here, might lie my only "gripe" with the SP, the machining on the internals isn't as nice as the exterior... but perfectly even and functional... just a little "sharp" in places.)
I don't find any difference in air flow regardless of which chimney i'm using... the stock SP vs any Kayfun chimney (the top part anyway... you must always use the SP chimney base). That said i've found a sweet spot with a full Kayfun nano kit (can't remember where this one came from but ALL my Kayfun parts/acc have fit! And thats a LOT) and Kayfun nano chimney top, paired with a super micro top cap (forget where i got this minuscule ....... as well). She holds ~2-3ml, i didn't measure, maybe more... and lasts a few hours of good vaping.
After a night with the SP i can't say enough good things about it, honestly. It's pretty much perfect in my opinion. The build quality is great, all threads smooth, airflow can go from tighter than Kayfun to full open Plume Veil, the vape i'm getting at 0.5 26g is thick, mid-warm, and surprisingly very, very flavorful. And you can alter the flavor/vapor production greatly just by altering the airflow pattern opening and closing the negative terminal channels. All of this paired with it's complete compatibility with Kayfun parts/accessories makes this the best of the new RDA like RTA's out there in my personal opinion.
You can't go wrong for $40!
