Looking for some feedback on the Bambino (versus the Derringer, which I've run daily for months, and the Bansai, which I've got on the way from Tom).

Cheers in advance.
I MUCH prefer building the derringer. Slotted posts FTW. I did not have the time the day I got my bambino to get a satisfactory build. Still haven't pulled it out to finish the job. The derringer would get my nod.

Thats awesome sloth. I personally would nudge the coils down a bit.

Agreed... Imo with the coils being high it reall brings out the rem. sloth yours is built exactly like mine but I a gree about nudging them down just a hair.

I second with the Derringer. I have a first run one and it's one of my faves. Easy build, good flavor. You can dial into a tight or loose draw on them. The Bonsai ain't too bad either but the Derringer stands out. Liking the mini Haze that I just built right much too. [emoji6]

Not really a fair comparison. The Babino is awesome for those that love the rogue but wish it had more air. I would suggest the Remm over the Bambino especially with the slam cap.

Lol... I didn't get them to sell... I use a lot of mods... In the next week or so I will be up to 6 sunboxes, 3 tmods, a Cam-M and a Cam-R and probably a shape ways 18650 single squonker sx350j and after my Cam-R is released I will be on the list for a Tmod sx350j, hopefully he has a 26650 in the works by then.
So does this mean we will be seeing a Cam-R within the next week or so?;)

Again, I have to agree with Tom however, the clones suit their purpose in determining if a given drip tip is worth going authentic or not. I tend to take the same approach with attys and then PIF'em once they are replaced with authentics but then, drip tip clones are much cheaper than atty clones of course.

In the case of firing devices though, I like to stick with the authentics.

I tend to go right for the authentics. It comes out cheaper in the end for me. If the tip doesn't work out I can usually get it traded for something else without too much hassle.

Question for the rem users - this build is awesome, very stable and amazing flavor. It's just awesome. If it's on an ohm reader and I push down on the cap, the ohms jump - down, still within batteries capabilities, but it's definitely shorting against the cap if the cap is pushed in. I'm thinking - no big deal. Would you all concur or should I slightly lower the coils?

It is an amazing, outstanding vape. Holy zotz it's awesome...

ETA hoping this is no biggie, I am terrified to even touch them. Hoping the magic of catfish is that these coils never even have to be replaced LOL :) :)

So happy you like the REM! I am stalking the vaporlair website for the slam caps for the Rem. Looking forward to expanding my drip tip options for it.

I have built all three atties. I have vaped all three atties. They have all been tested with a diy juice - Slothdae. None have been tested with my complex NT's yet.

REM - a piece of heaven, enough said.
Bonsai - seems sweet, gonna rebuild it when I have time though. Minor hot legs. Good flavor, easy build; like the four posts. Seems solid for a clone.
Rogue - this is amazing, I didn't expect a lot of flavor, and thoroughly expected to need to fiddle for it. Nope. Very satisfactory flavor, first attempt. Well, second attempt. First attempt I spun the post a bit o_O remedied.

Three awesome atties. The REM's at the top by a long shot so far except that the others are such easy builds. All three have great flavor and I haven't fiddled with the bonsai or rogue at all yet. The REM is the most "beautiful" atty I have ever used; it cannot be beat for ascetics in my book. The Derringer's right behind it followed by Rogue. I don't like the Bonsai in appearance but it seems like a flippin awesome vape :) :)

Love them. Catfish is the greatest :) they all squonk like they came from heaven.

ETA definitely behind in work because of this. The addiction of vaping...it ain't just the nicotine ;)

Is it time to pay for the authentic Mantas yet?

Be interesting to see other than the wire holes lining up straight if there's any other improvement between the authentic and the clone eg flavour.

Love the manta clone and don't find the offset holes an issue....
