Ares, new MTL RTA designed by Phil Busardo and Dimitirs Agrafiotis

[capthook]

I just read it's to come in both 2mil and 4mil versions.

" Some Ares inside info - Available in a TPD compliant 2ml version and a 4ml version. - 24mm diameter to look "right" with more of today's devices. - Slide top filling to prevent you from removing anything from the tank. - Narrow chimney for proper MTL TH & Flavor - Rounded bell for reduced air turbulence, smoothness of vape, and ease of filling. "

I am crushed. I was really looking forward to this too.
I can not stand overhang - and this is going to be too wide for any of my mods.
I can squeeze the funds for a tank like this but I sure can't get a new mod for it.

Treat yourself to an early Christmas present!

Did they make any mention of the 2ml version being a 22mm tank ???...Could you post a link to the article you read...I'd love to see it...Thanks...Trig

If I was a betting man, I would wager the 2ml version is the 4 ml version with some sort of plug in it to reduce capacity. The plug will likely be removable as with some other tanks. That 2ml max capacity in the EU really is the dumbest law ever.

 

[capthook]

The "fins" walling off the juice channels is something new.
Reduces juice pressure/flow into the deck for flooding control?
Also helps concentrate air flow?
And keeps the wick away from the diffuser to eliminate seepage?

I think it keeps wick tails away from the diffuser to eliminate seepage. Clever.

From Dimitris Instagram:
"- Liquid barriers to help reduce the chance or flooding of leaking when wicking."

And yeah @ScottP - probably both will be 24mm.

That's the same thing I read on another social media site. PB and Demi are showing them at a vape show somewhere.

Thanks...The page that capthook put the link up for does seem to imply the 2ml will be 24mm as well...And I couldn't agree more that the EU compliance law is just plain goofy...Trig

You can tell how much PB likes the siren from this design, looks like a upgraded siren. Coming from who designed it, should be a great MTL tank, but will still wait for some real reviews before jumping on one

Dallas, TX. Is the show Dimi mentioned.

Very sloooow boat. Gearbest is the worst. I'd wait til Black Friday--there will be better deals on 25 mm mods, methinks.

If they're making a 2 ml version, they could have easily reduced the diameter on that one. Too bad.

I´m actually happy the go for wide and short ... already own a pico 25 and I´m not a huge fan of those slim and tall atomizers like the kayfun V5 on a pico, too top heavy.

The deck on this looks like a winner! The screw mechanism to fix the wire look perfect!
Really wanting this...!

 

[stols001]

Well, I like wide and short too, as far as mods, but some folks really prefer tube style setups and with the different options of 2 ml (EU compliant I guess) and 4, it would have been interesting if they'd tried the design both ways, and those wanting a wider shorter mod could go for the 4 ml (though I realize the increased ml causes increased height) maybe they tried some skinnier designs and found flavor and/or design somehow lacking.... There do seem to be some wider RTAs coming out. Who knows. I have to say the Berserker is fantastic, and that sucker is not skinny. I love the flavor, though....

The worst? If you're not in any hurry and can wait 3 weeks to get it, they often offer the best prices and have great selection.
I have been perfectly pleased with my 5 transactions.

 

[stols001]

I don't use them thanks to their TOS. They do have awesome prices though, but I accidentally shipped to the wrong address, so they took ALL my money (and I know my stuff was returned, I talked to my old house new owners....) and refused to negotiate since it's in their TOS that if there are any errors, too bad. Which is FINE, and I read TOS NOW, but I refuse to use them as I am prone to errorz.... They do have some great prices, but even FT has better customer service (IMO). So no, I don't much care for them myself....

Glad to hear that. I ordered from them a couple of times and it took forever--no updates, no CS, so I gave up on them. But that was years ago, so I'm glad to hear that things have improved!

that looks like a massive AF under the coil for something that is supposed to be M2L. I am very confused by this thing and the design choices, particulalrly given who designed it.

 

[mikepetro]

I'll wait for "independent" non-fanboy reviews. I do like a good MTL tank though, and I do like the wick path on this one.

 

[Katdarling]

It appears to be very Siren-esque.

We shall see.

 

[Alien Traveler]

MSRP $39.95?
Does it mean "made in China"?
I'll wait for a few months for reviews on FT.

EDIT: after-sought.
Siren, as I understand, is a Chinese company. Will it sue for infringement?

It is made by Innokin which is a Chinese company.

I guess it depends if Digiflavor (makers of the Siren) holds the appropriate patents.
