I was trying to get some opinions on what rba to get. I have been vaping for about a year and a half now, I have never used an RBA but would like to get into it. I've been worried I wouldn't know how to use them but I think I'm ready to try. I have a VAMO V3 and MVP 2.0, I pretty much only use my MVP, and typically with Protank 2, Aerotank, or nautilus. That leads me to another question, are RBAs okay to use on my MVP?? Thanks for any help you can give with this!!

I just got my first RBA a couple of weeks ago,I gotta Kayfun Lite+ V2 Ehpro from 101Vape. it's a very easy coil build,wicking takes a lil time to learn,less is more. And as far as your MVP,yes it will work on it. I use my MVP to check the ohms when I build my coils(gotta ohm meter on the way). Hope this helps and Vape On!!!!

RBA's are perfectly fine on the MVP I use them on regulated and mechanical mods. IMO the easiest RBA to build is the kayfun line. you can get a nice clone for around $30-40 depending on the vender. I recommend the EHpro kayfun lite plus V2 from 101vape.com. Once built you will find it has the best flavor of any RBA and Many RDA as well. Vapor production is also extremely good depending on coil and wicking.
 
Butters 80, I agree rip trippers youtube tutorials are great. As far as a good rba to start on, I agree that the kayfun is a good start. You will likely stop there and only go kayfun-style rbas. I started with rdas, and I still love them dearly (vho raiju (it's a beast check it out) and grand vapor trident). Picked up a kayfun, then a russian 91 and latest was the aqua (easier to go dual coil with the aqua). All are outstanding once you perfect your coil and wicking right now I'm really loving my russian, the flavors of all my rbas get pretty close to my rdas. Plus the rbas are great when you don't want to drip in public, you get a lot of strange looks depending on where you are, lol. My main concern was leakage, I haven't had a problem with any of them. I had some newbie issues with the aqua because I've only had it a week, but you get over that initial learning curve. Just make sure you leave some headspace and you are good to go. I use them on my mechs and vv/vw devices. I love em!!!

I can't tell you what's best but I got my first RBA and I absolutely love it! I'm a beginner and it's very beginner friendly. It's the vision eternity rba. It's very easy to rebuild and the flavor is incredible. ! I really like it. You might want to take a look online at it. I got mine from my vape store online. They have it on sale and if you use the coupon code riyan you will get a additional 6% off. See what you think of it. I really love mine. I've had no problems with leaking and it holds 40 drops in dripping mode. It has a set up for drip and tank mode. It comes with some pre build coils but I make my own. Instead of screws it has posts for the wire and coils and they snap in once you make your coil. It's very user friendly. And vapes really well.

I started out on the igo-L and fell in love with dripping. Pretty much why I have a reo now. Don't get no better than that. I have 3 igo-l's so I sure did like em. Very easy to build and good flavor. And cheap of course which is important to me. $7 at Fasttech. Can't beat em'. I have a Kayfun Lite Plus I got at FT that I was just getting ready to mess with. It was only $14. Good recommendation on that one too. Good luck to ya and happy dripping. Oh another one I like is the Vision Eternity. Holds 35 drops and vapes rock solid. :)
 
I just got my first and it is a Kayfun lite v2 and I absolutely love it! Took me like 3 hours to build a GOOD coil on it, but I was dumb and got a mechanical mod (nemesis) as my first mod, so it's easy to wind up with that burnt taste. I would recommend the Kayfun, once I got the hang of it, it worked out great for me. I would highly suggest, however, that you get a variable voltage/variable wattage mod as your first mod to couple with it as it will make you beginning experience a LOT more enjoyable as it gives you a lot more control to avoid that nasty bunt taste. Happy vaping brother! :)
 
Something tells me that it is only "better" because of the placebo effect. I am using the HCigar clone and it works great. Everyone that has reviewed the majority of the clones out there has said that there is virtually no difference in the clone vs. the real other than an inflated price and any of the differences they have found are small things that do not effect the functionality of the device. Just my 2c

I've been looking at the Kayfun or Russian, but I was a bit disappointed in the poly carbonate plastic used in the window on the tank. Do you think that there will ever be a Kayfun or Russian made with a glass window? I'm still doing research, but will wait while I'm using all of my Nautilus atomizers, although I am anxious to try rebuilding, as it doesn't look too difficult and seems like it would be fun.
