Does anyone here have an Origen Little 16 atty? I'm sure with all the squonker aficionados that someone does. Anyway, how does it vape?
I have one that I am still experimenting with. So far I tried two single coil builds; a Z coil that didn't really impress me in the flavor department (flavor junkie here, MTL, restricted air flow, 1.2 single coil). The second one I built just like I build my Cyclones and it's a better vape than the Z build. I didn't get to where I see a difference in quality that would prompt me to buy another one (I have 3 cyclones AFC). But I think I'll nail the right build in the near future. Haven't had the spit back Chowder talked about yet. But overall I'd say it's a keeper and a good buy so far.

How do you build your Cyclones?

ETA: I'm a flavor junkie as well. I have some MTL attys but I prefer airflow like the Manta V2 or NarDA which allows restricted lung hits.

Thanks for all the tips guys! Got a couple of new things to try now, exactly what I was looking for. Love this Catfish thread!

As for the 016, i really liked it with dual coils. It was kinda meh to me with the z coil but it really shines with the duals. I agree its not a wet vape like a Marquis but good nonetheless. Great atty, fast becoming one of my favorites!

Forgot to say that with this build I moved the coil closer to the side, next to the air hole. The Z coil is placed between the posts.

While I may not like the Stumpy as much as you, that was a nice video. I liked the dry humor and no BS approach. Kudos.

Also I'm still working through that giant bottle of Radioactive I bought from you.
Thank you man. Glad you're enjoying that radio. Must be super steeped by now! :)

EZinTN I have filled out the doc for the Aeronaut for you due to me owing you one. If you receive an invoice disregard it.
Hildecat if you still want a Aeronaut fill out the doc in the link ASAP. There is only one left.

I've only built a z-coil in mine thus far, I think about 0.8 ohms? My biggest issue is that it just doesn't have enough air for heavy usage, so I've been using it for a couple chocolate DIY numbers that hate high wattage.

Is there any atty that you could compare its airflow to? As long as I can get at least a restricted lung hit, I'm golden.

Oh yeah, you can tighten the air WAY down. It has airflow options similar to the Atomic.

I recently sold my O16, it was a good vape but I couldn't get quite the air I wanted, close but not quite.

I run my Stumpy with 2 air holes open each side, the O16 wide open would be closer to 1 each side on a Stumpy. Definitely enough for a restricted LH, just not quite enough for my usual style.

The deck is also much smaller, I run 2.5-3 mm ID coils which was just a bit to big to fit in an O16 (in a single Z configuration)

Had I not gotten the Stumpy right after it, I would still have the O16. The Stumpy, to me, had everything I liked about the O16 (2 post, flavor) without the limitations (deck size and air).

Pancake final push... We are sitting at three if we hit 15 it happens, if not canceled.

PANCAKE RDA/RSA BUY

Can't believe you don't have 15 takers yet. It's a fantastic atty. If I didn't have other irons in the fire I'd definitely be up for a second one.

Yeah, it's yet another atty that I signed up for and just doesn't get the interest needed. I'm telling you, I'm bad luck LOL. Next time there's something I really want I'm just gonna hold off on signing up until 10 or 15 people do and then I'll jump on.

I just wish he had made them out of SS and maybe a ti cap and adapter and marketed them at $95. $120 puts you in a different class of atty. very few attys in this range are successful. The Marquis and the velocity are the stand outs in this class.

I saw in the FB group that Bret posted if enough were sold the price would drop but I'm not sure if that will ever happen. Plus he's apparently about to come out with a new atty, the Mini Chuck.

We should compare notes before buying attys and me starting runs. You nailed it across the board.
