Build ideas for the Comet RDA?

[Ivan6Two]

Struggling to get the amazing flavor I've read about on this rda.

I've tried simple wire builds, from 2.5mm to 3.0mm, oriented horizontally across the atty and also at an angle (parallel with the airflow holes). I've also tried fused claptons and aliens.

About to throw in the towel soon and sell this thing (that I paid a lot for, shipped to the States from Canada)...

Maybe you're expecting too much.

It looks to me like the way it was designed is to have the coil sit perpendicular to the airflow. Reminds me a lot of a pulse airflow wise actually except that it has a nice deep well. I kind of like the design. I don’t see how it would seriously outperform another side airflow dome top rda though. I think @Don29palms may have it. You could just be expecting too much.

I’ll continue experimenting with coil ID and placement... curious about this RDA’s 45-degree airflow design (and others similar to it) - wouldn’t you want airflow to be parallel with the coil?

Not always, it depends on the design. I'd say keep experimenting with things before you throw in the towel. I try to not expect too much of my gear, especially as I am experimenting with getting it working how I like.... That way I am not disappointed and there is nowhere to go but up....

I hope you find something that allows you to enjoy it more.
