Aria Oros... Reviews... Lowest voltage drop...Is it worth it?

[sir_puffs_alot]

Thats actually the 18650 clone and 18650 original.lol They screwed up on the clone and made the 18650 like an inch bigger lol

QUOTE=sir_puffs_alot;14128174]i have the clone and while the botton button comes off it has the same super tick heft, best threads i have ever tried, super smooth button action, and damn low volt drop. best 40 bucks i have spent. Only bummer is it doesnt lock so it stays in house which im fine with cuz i dont wanna drip it and destroy its beaty. But really the clone is really well done, i was takin aback by how well it was done and i was worried cuz i got it from angelcigs usa warehouse. I have absolutly none of the above problems with mine...haha nice. Also hes compairing a pic of the 18650 clone and the 18500 authentic

[/QUOTE]

then tahat is redic, but it only makes it feel that much heftier lol. but I do wish they got it right...might buy an skx clone if they ever come out, and clone it right. I buy authentic when I can(last one was 454 big block rda)If Its quality and I feel the company did what they could to give a quality product at a competitive price, I will buy the authentic over a clone. That usually doesnt happen so I wind up buying clones which I really doesnt sit that well with me, but im forced to.

I have no problems with clones. In fact I usually buy the clone to test out the product to see if i like the design first and if i like it then I will go out and buy the authentic.

I used my Aria Oros this weekend at my local B&Ms cloud competition paired with my mutation x and won 2nd place. SO this mod is true to its word and hits like a truck. I was going against Nemmys, Manhattans ect.

[sir_puffs_alot]

tru I do the same thing testing out a clone to see if I like it first....but then I find myself liking the design and If the clone is done well, im like I already have one why buy another. haha! But If the clone is wonky and I like the design and know the authentic isnt wonky like the clone is then I may buy the real thing. With the 454 I figured I might as well get the original for 65 as opposed to a wonky clone for 30. If all authentic mods bridged the gap like this clones would be in trouble. So you used an Authentic Oros at the comp right?

Once you have learned how to build a coil, and most importantly, how to wick the coil that you have built properly, cloud size is more a function of lung capacity than anything else.
I can blow a cloud that will fill a car to the point of being dangerous to drive with one good pull on a Provari/ KFL.
Unless you vape below .12 of an ohm, v-drop is irrelevant , as you can build your coil to spec.
My point being, vape what you like, since as an electronics engineer, I can assure you v-drop is close to meaningless, as long as the mod's switch isn't complete garbage.

Buying a quality battery is WAY more important.

 

[NewCloudzCity]

Yea I used my Oros for the comp. Almost everybody at a cloud comp is running .15 or lower so voltage drop does matter. I was running a 24 gauge dual parallel gplat coil at .09 for that comp.
I hear what ya saying sir puffs alot, nut I can tell you one thing, I can deff tell the difference when one mod hits harder than another mod even with a freshy charged battery and the same rda even at my usual .3ohm build.

Not saying that you can't tell a difference, just saying that most folks don't vape that low.
Therefore, if you like a mod, and you find that it doesn't hit as hard as a different one, just wrap a lower resistance coil.
Heck, in order to vape that low, during an ordinary work shift, you would either have to have access to a charger, or carry several batteries.

Completions in any field are always extreme.

For the day to day vape that is practical, v drop is practically irrelevant, unless you just derive pleasure from that knowledge.

My apps has an extremely low drop, as did my naval brass nemesis.

Made no difference at all in regards to my day to day vape, and it would be the same for most.

I am just advocating that v drop should

 

[NewCloudzCity]

Oh absolutely. I dont carry my Oros everyday to work. But I do carry the same Rdas that I use on the Oros and I can deff tell the difference when vaping on the oros with the same rda as when I throw it on a shi**y origen clone for instance.
I dont usually vape that low (.09) that was just for the cloud comp. My usual build is about a .25-.35 for work with a mech mod. I bring 1 spare vtc5 besides the fresh carged one that I leave the house with as well as my Hcigar vapor shark rdna 30 clone

[suspectK]

Well, I heard they're about to come out with a mod that has a voltage loss of 13 micro-Volts less than the oros...too bad.

I pulled the trigger and she is PURTY

Hahaha the giant logo on the counter, i didn't see it for so long. It really is pretty in person. Saw and felt it at ecc. Was not a fan of the feel of it really but i thought it looked awesome.

Ugh I wish I coulda made it to ECC..Your lucky!!!

But my reaction to the feel of the Oros was opposite of yours. I really liked the feel of it. It feels substantial in my hand. Unlike the Vanilla mod for instance which feels like a toy or made out of aluminum foil. The threads on the Oros were amazing the button was smooth. All in All a great mod

I feel lucky, it was super dope, and i got to touch a solid silver caravela! Anyway the feel of the oros was just too bulky and squatty for me, I like long mods that aren't very thick (lol) and so it just didn't fit the bill. However the finish is really cool in person.

Well to each his own. Thats why this hobby is so great. lol Congrats on the all silver caravela. Was that the modders personal ?
I just got my hands on the last ultra limited run of the Manhattans. The naval brass dipped in white cerakote. 1 of 40 ever made.

They were raffling it off. And that's sweet you should post a pic, how much did you snag it for?

I got lucky and I snagged it for retail. Ive already had ppl offer me double what I paid for it. lol

ok tested the volt drop on my oros clone.... at a starting voltage of 4.14 with a sumsung 25r and a .26ohm coil my ending voltage was 3.85. Thata pretty darn good folks... and it wasnt dirty but wasnt cleaned either.

Jkuro of cali vapers tested the authentic oros and it came out to .000 on a 1 ohm coil and .002 on a .3 ohm coil. At that point, the only thing causing an output of less than 4.2 would be your battery output dropping under load. I have been running mine with VTC4s and it hits like a train but I have tried it with the purple efests and noticed a significant drop in performance. I'm planning on picking up a few 25rs just to see if they are really as good as people say, but its really cool that you can really tell the difference in quality between batteries.

 

[sir_puffs_alot]

im not that happy with those numbers...ima put one of my massive copper springs in it and clean it and see what happens...but i get my sig 100 watt tom and have my big dripper here so i might be busy. Does loading up the threads with no ox id help or hurt? seems it might hurt performance...im not talking about conductive grease with aluminum particles in it cuz that tears up threads...especially copper threads, but i find a small but of the conductive grease helps on ss threads. no -ox -id speacial, help or hurt volt drop on threads?

That isnt a real worl test tho that is hooked up to a machine.. It doesnt include battery sag like mine so the numbers are hard to compare
