    I second the Magma. It's got a leaking issue, but if you keep it vertical it's not a problem. If you're feeling ambitious and/or want room for growth, the Magma V2 would support both dual or quad-coil arrangements: $9.58 Magma V2 Styled RDA Rebuildable Dripping Atomizer - stainless steel / black...

    RDA Best RDA for flavour?

    I can't believe the name Achilles II hasn't been dropped yet (Atomizer «ACHILLES»). It's hard to find—only the authentic version directly from the Ukrainian manufacturer can be found at the moment—but as single coil RBAs go, it's the best there is. It won't leak unless you hold it upside down...

    ACHILLES RDA by Titanium Mods

    I got an Achilles clone, which had filler material with it. What's this? This is an Achilles, don't need that. I threw it away. Next I got the $5 Prometey. No filler.

    I hope not. My whole sense of being is dependent upon being among a select owner of only 20 Achilles IIs. o_O

    029? So much for my 0-through-20 theory. What kind of sense does that make?

    #18 here. I suppose he's giving them out starting at #20 and counting his way down.

    Agree on that. I ain't throwing the thing away but I've already replaced it with the VaperRev titanium tips you turned us onto.

    ACHILLES RDA by Titanium Mods

    Alexandr (the Ukrainian maker) produces his RBAs and RTAs only on occasion and in lots of 20, and it's safe to say he isn't using the proceeds to finance his CNC equipment—and least not very quickly, at that rate. This is conjecture, but he appears to be a machinist with a small operation who...

    Not sure; my relatively cool vaping style doesn't really put them to any kind of real test.

    ACHILLES RDA by Titanium Mods

    They're top-notch quality; the fact that they're titanium makes them an obvious match-made-in-heaven for the Achilles, and by happenstance they blend perfectly with it aesthetically. The opening is very small, small enough to open the adjustment on the Achilles by just a tiny increment.

    A tad over 5, gmoney$, .223" (my calipers are the stone-aged analog dial variety, calibrated to good ol' US customary units), 5.66mm. Here's mine with MostlySunny's titanium/delrin drip replacing TM's stove pipe:

    ACHILLES RDA by Titanium Mods

    It's the best device I've ever owned. I've knocked it around a bit but it's none worse for wear; it's just a very high quality American made mod

    Look what popped up in my mailbox after a mere 36-day wait: the Achilles II, not much different than the V1 except for a redesigned airflow; the set screw in the base is gone, replaced by an Magma-esque AFC ring with a single opening; at full-bore it's too airey, but unlike the V1 there's some...

    Actually, they're not only in stock but the price has dropped to an unheard of €85: Atomizer «ACHILLES»

    Not sure about that. I don't have the clone with me but I'm making a mental note to subject both to a pair of calipers when I get home.

    ACHILLES RDA by Titanium Mods

    Once it's been tightened down it stays put, does rotate freely—and very smoothly—otherwise. That's the other very noticeable difference between this and my clone, in that mechanical features, such as threads, work much more smoothly.

    ACHILLES RDA by Titanium Mods

    My Achilles II landed in my mailbox ending a 36-day wait but fulfilling my expectations. No-frills packaging (big surprise, huh?), but it's an object of beauty that distinguishes itself from the V1. I coiled it up (28AWG, 10-turns, came in at 1.7Ω), and like the V1, the flavor is deeply...
