    @Z-Lee, there is something you might already have the information on.. I know I am starting out, but Im a bit of a DIY type and I have just bought a couple of basic and cheap rtas to play with. I love the look of the rdas though and I have a passion for stainless steel. I used to sell stainless jewelry locally when I had to stop working but still needed things to do. I have a truckload still here if anyone knows someone who might be interested. I dont do anything by halves it seems.... distracted so easily sorry, I would love to find an rta that has no glass basically. The last couple of weeks playing with the pico and a couple of other little mods I have, I can tell when the juice is getting down without needing to look. If it has a viewing section thats fine, but not big sections that will break the third time you drop them. Saying that because the mega has hit the floor twice already and no broken glass.. touch wood.

    Thank you again everyone, have a great day!

    Does size/height matter? Of the old classics that several people rave about, I'm really enjoying the Taifun GTIV RTA (Clone):
    $25.72 GT4 Styled RTA Rebuildable Tank Atomizer - 5ml / stainless steel / 25mm diameter at FastTech - Free Shipping
    It's very basic and creates a lot of depth in flavor and brings out the undertoned flavors that several other tanks do not do.

    The Wotofo Profile 1.5 RDTA:
    Wotofo × Mrjustright1 Profile RDTA Φ25mm 6.2ml with nexMESH coil
    Currently on sale at Sourcemore. I absolutely love this tank for it's flavor and versatility. It can function as an RDTA or RDA. You can load in a mesh coil, single ID coil, or dual ID coils. The stainless steel rods inside the tank also feed the wicks quite well. If you like to tinker, this is a great mod.

    The Vapefly Brunhilde MTL RTA:
    Vapefly Brunhilde MTL RTA 23mm 5ml Rebuildable Tank Atomizer
    There's also a non-MTL RTA version:
    $36.38 Authentic Vapefly Brunhilde Top Coiler RTA Rebuildable Tank Atomizer - 8ml / stainless steel + glass / 25.2mm diameter at FastTech - Free Shipping (FastTech might take a bit longer to get to you, but I've ordered hundreds of items from them and they've always been pleasant to deal with - also the shipping is included!)

    The last one I'll suggest would be the ThunderHead Creations Tauren RDTA:
    $27.69 Authentic Thunderhead Creations Tauren BF RDTA Atomizer - 2ml / copper + 304 stainless steel / 24mm diameter / w/ BF pin at FastTech - Free Shipping
    Tauren Max RDTA: (which I don't actually have, but know the quality is good)
    $31.31 Thunderhead Creations Tauren Max RDTA Rebuildable Dripping Tank Atomizer - authentic / 2/4.5ml (25*22mm (OD*ID)) / 25mm diameter at FastTech - Free Shipping
    Tauren Artemis RDTA: (much like the Profile 1.5 RDTA)
    $36.10 Authentic Thunderhead Creations Artemis RDTA Atomizer - 4.5ml (23*20mm (OD*ID)) / 24mm diameter / stainless steel at FastTech - Free Shipping

    All of these have a plain stainless steel version if you're not into colors. Once again, FastTech might take a bit longer to get to you, but their S&H is included into their pricing which makes your totaling cost a lot easier, as opposed to wondering what the final cost is going to be when checking out. All of these name brands have impeccable machining/quality. The Taifun is a clone however, so the machining may vary on that a bit since it's made by an different company. The reviews still show the quality to be on par though. Let me know if these are something you're interested in, or are looking for something completely different.

    @Z-Lee, recant ... I take that back..I just looked at FastTech as the name was mentioned on another post I was reading, there are heaps of rtas with hardly any glass, you would be going for ages I imagine. It just might have to be something I think of as a long term project to find one that suits me. If I think of anything else I will be sure to ask though, thank you.
    Too late. :rickroll:

    I do have experience with most of what I mentioned, so I will stand by them. I see several 4-5 star items on FastTech that I've gotten (in terms of RDAs) and they were not very impressive, to say the least.

    Sounds like it may have somehow have been put into stealth mode. Try holding the fire button and the minus (-) button at the same time for about 3 seconds. That'll bring it out of stealth mode if in fact it is in stealth mode. |
    Yes that would be wonderful wouldn't it ☺️ thank you for the thought, I have tried that one. I didn't think of it for a while though so got a bit excited when I did. A touch disappointed when it didn't work lol x

    @Z-Lee, thank you so much. "Does size matter?" quite a question to ask someone you have just met lol. For the RTA not at all. I will end up with another box mod. I have sort of been looking at the Taifun and read quite a few reviews. Mostly good. I probably would bother less than 4 ml so the ones you have given me all sound good. I might just work through them one at a time. I appreciate you taking the time to do that. Thank you x

    @Z-Lee, I dont know if you shop there at all but AliExpress has a sale for the next 10 hours and its based on electrical, so vapes seem to be featuring a lot, a lot of the vape sellers have lots for sale. I just had to come here and write down the list you gave me so I can go hunt while the prices are down. Thanks again for that information.

    I apologize, I completely missed this notification. If Ali seems to be working for you, you'll have to keep reporting back. I've heard horror stories about them, and their website kind of sketches me out a bit, not gonna lie, lol. But, I've also read full fledged Karen reviews on Amazon, which has never done me wrong, so it's difficult having to sift through all the idiot reviewers to find reasonable ones.

    I ordered a handmade glass necklace from a small village in Zimbabwe yesterday, and it's not sitting on my doorstep. 1 Star! I'd give you Negative Stars if I could! This is just outrageous! I want a full refund! You should also be paying me for deciding to go with your website over another. NEVER COMING BACK HERE AGAIN! If you pay me, maybe I'll consider it though. Maybe. Depends how much.
    Obviously that's a bit of embellishment, but I went ahead and vocalized what they're all trying to do. Cheap asses. For now, since I have access to FastTech amongst other stores more local, I'll likely be sticking to them. But I realize not all of us have the same options. Have you had any issues with anything at Ali yet?

    Welcome to ECF,
    You guys are great, thank you so much! @UncleJunkie, my screen didnt burn out, it hadnt been used since I bought it. It was sitting in the box and when I got it out.. no screen. Luckily I decided to try vaping with it even though it didnt show me in any way that there was power. I can change tanks with different coils in and it just goes no matter what I put on it. I rather love it, and its so much nicer than the normal pico, I prefer the weight too. Im happy with the smaller battery though, Im getting reasonable life out of them, just dont ask me what wattage I have it on lol. I bought the Melo III tank at the same time, its 4 ml and is still sitting in its box.. Im working my way up to this. Good advice about the heat sink though thank you. Maybe I will end up getting this mod fixed, though I was thinking the repair would probably cost as much as the mod, if you could buy one

    @FranC, thank you, I love your wolves! There is something about us ladies that admire powerful animals dont you think? :)

    @Hawise, thank you for the advice. If you see me asking questions and it looks like I havent looked, it will be because I forgot. Please dont hesitate to remind me, I just have memory problems though so I will apologize in advance for anything like that. Its all good, I laugh at myself with it, my memory went in 3 weeks with a health condition so I had to laugh or cry about it, I have an awesome sense of humor now, I will just try not to annoy everyone with my bad memory. I do try and look back if possible.
