Best cheap RBA for a beginner?

[Altaire Versailles]

Looking for recommendations on a good cheap RBA to start building coils on...I was looking at the Kayfun clones on fasttech but the reviews all say bad things about the clones and theres a lot of "I needed to do this and that" to get it to work properly. I dont know what to do to get a rebuildable to work properly so... Anyway, any suggestions?

you're looking for a rebuildable tank, right? go with a lemo.

my lemo should be coming monday - will be my first RTA. authentic and $33. apparently a nice RTA to have from reading around here
no experience with any, because it's my first RTA, an upgrade from kangertech genitank ; but may as well get an authentic for $20 more dollars then have a potential p.o.s., unless ofc you're only interested in building and not vaping, then look at the decks of the RBAs on fasttech and buy one you like

i thought i'd learn to build coils and enjoy vaping any success stories, so i went with the Lemo seemed the obvious choice

/e can someone tell me what the B in RBA is for? RTA (T = TANK) RDA (D = DRIPPING) ... but RBA (B = ???)

RBA is just a general term for Re-Buildable Atomizer - it could either mean RDA or RTA depending how its used.








as for OP, i ordered a ERL mini from FT as my first RTA. rebuild coils for my kanger tanks anyways so i figured id try my hand at an RTA. i chose the ERL as i didnt see anyone having problems with them(yet)

just a generic acronym for rebuildable

RBA: ReBuildable Atomizer
RDA: Rebuildable Dripping Atomizer
RTA: Rebuildble Tank Atomizer
RDTA: Take a guess

I'm a beginner (3 weeks), and I only own Lemo and Fogger V5. I can honestly say that, even as a beginner, my experience with the Lemo has been nothing short of amazing. I now have a Lemo Drop also, and I think it's even a bit better for flavor.

There are several different Kayfuns on Fasttech from different manufacturers. iirc there's one that has a ton of positive reviews that say its better than the rest and requires no drilling of fixes ect.

I hear a Lemo is good and there is another one out called the Billow. You could try a Magma Clone too, no tank but a deeeeeep well, they're pretty awesome.

If you want a kayfun, go with an EHPro kayfun lite plus with 2 airholes. Excellent clones. My friend and I like them better than her authentic.

Also look at the Lemo, which I prefer.

This is the first one I ever purchased...29.99 from Fluid Vapes. It is the cheapest of my 4 kayfun clones, and the best as far as construction of the 4. Has never been temperamental if you will.

Edit: i see I failed to click the quote button. I was referring to the EHPro Kayfun Lite Plus v2, with 2 air holes.

when did 2 airholes become an option?!?!? you know if FT has that version?

A few months ago. FT doesn't have any EHPro products, sadly.

Look carefully before buying as both 1 and 2 airhole versions are called v2. Fluidvapes has the best price at $29.99. And there's a 10% off code. I think it was "pegasus".

A simple rebuildable tank could be Dream BT804, it's cheap, single coil kayfun-ish tank. Coil attachment is done with small pins instead of screws so it could be easier to setup with thicker kanthal but might be a little too loose with thinner kanthal.

I got a Lemo Drop about a week ago and built my first coil last Saturday. I was shooting for 1.5 and ended up at 1.7. It's still going strong after a week. I was very happy with my Nautilus Mini's, but this thing is amazing! Once I abandoned the mounting holes and trapped the wire under the screw heads, it was a piece of cake to build.
