So I got a BMW goldie rda yesterday. I haven't had time yet to throw a build on it. But usually I like to see reviews on stuff before I buy them and I haven't seen any reviews. The only reason why I went ahead and bought it was because I know bmi normally makes really good quality stuff but I was just surprised to not see a review. Any body know of one out there?

Alrighty. So I finally got to use it. I have the rocket blue color and the gold one as well. Build quality is really good, especially for a 50 dollar atty. Nice and sturdy. The color on the blue one is really nice too. Nice protruding pin as well. O rings were a little tight but once I popped a build on there and juice it up they almost got a little too loose for my taste. I mean you can pick up your mod by the chuff cap but it is a little loose. Nice deep juice well i believe it's 6mm but don't remember the specs. Build deck is solid. No twisting of the positive post. It's Philips head crews though. I would rather it be flat head to avoid stripping the heads but you do get spares as well as o-rings too. Post holes look to be 3mm which is nice. Airflow is nice and it's adjustable too. Nothing crazy or innovative about this rda but it is nice and solid. The top caps are conical to help with flavor, which it needs. The flavor is a bit lacking but of course depends on your build. The flavor through the 510 top cap is better than the chuff style top cap obviously. Right now I have a dual parallel 24 guage at .11 ohms and that is nice for clouds but on the other I have a 26g usage clapton ed with .4mm ribbon wire parallels to a 26 guage to help with ramp up time and still give flavor and that one is a better build. Overall nice and I do like it and would recommend. I see this rda lasting me along time. I already dropped the gold one and there's not even a scratch on it.

I built my blue one @ .43 with twisted 26 kanthal and am using it with the 510 cap @ 37 watts and I like it. Got the airflow at half. Tooting away nicely.

Yeah well i hate you and your gorgeous box and matching drip tip and how it just looks so good with that beautiful blue matching the little blue streaks on the box. Just kidding I don't hate you but I am very jealous. What box is that by the way. That is really stunning

Thanks. I love this box. It's a 26650 JMbox . I just tried it with the noisy cricket with this build and it is a little to intense. If have to build it a .6 or higher with a series unregulated box I think. Anyway, it's a decent atty I think and quality built.
Yeah I dropped mine on concrete and there's not a scratch or dent or anything. I was impressed. The O-rings are little loose to me now that it's been juiced up but at first it was way to tight. I wish it could make a little more flavor though but I guess I'll just have to try some different builds. Clouds, excellent. Flavor is probably like a 6 or 7 with the current build I have and the chuff cap. Change to the 510 adapter and flavor goes up a bit while still doing pretty good clouds. If you like clouds it's almost up there with the phenotype L IMO. I actually bought a gold one for a friend but he doesn't like the chuff cap so I put the blue on my brass jux mod and put the gold chuff cap on it and man is it sexy. Not as sexy as yours but hey we can all be you

Put a wider bore drip on her and closed the air 3/4's . more vapor and good flavor. Oh, and I'm glad we're all not me! With these single battery devices I like to keep my build at around .4 to .6. 30 to 40 watts and restrict the airflow to bring up the warmth and flavor. I don't know nothing about the price of tea in China, but it seems too work for me. It's a cool atty with a nice finish I think.
