The Narda is a nice atty,and has a nice draw to it,but personally i think the Hadaly has a bit more air flow capability so i would say the Hadaly is less restrictive.
The Coppervapes , AO rda is decent for price 6£ a clone by Coppervapes vapes of the Narda an atty O

its a decent little rda , i have a few Coppervapes (CV) rda,s an tbh they are of good quality an gearbest has a few from them all seem to be of good quality the ones ive Recived Including the 2 RTA,s by CV which are KFv5 and the

TF gt v3 which ive been using Recently ,

Its less restrictive draw than the KFv5 , JFC via drip tip turning ,

an can be shut down tight draw with airflow or opened up making it a nice versitile RTA , for single coil builds im pretty impressed with it for a 10£ rta , vapes well ,All made by Coppervape , on Gearbest seems they do make quite a bit of stuff ,

Narda and Origen RDA clones - I've been careful to select the models with with the bf pins. Are there any additional little screws, pins or such that would be wise to grab? I did include a beauty ring for the Origen for example. Also, I see the Origen on focalecig is listed as a Shen Ray design which is preferable. Is it fair to say the one on FT is different/no name producer? Does it matter?

If I wanted another Narda, I'd probably go for the Coppervape Odis Atty instead.

Even better IMO, now that I have one, the SXK NoToy clone. Smaller @ 18mm, but total no-fuss build deck, bottom air and and edge in flavor.

My first Origin Little was the Shenray from Focal, second from FT. Identical, as far as I can tell. Both excellent.

I got a couple of OL beauty rings from FT too. Remember they're 24mm OD so fit on Coppervape perfectly, thought not on other narrower mods without an overhang.

Best of luck.

All personal opinion of course, and somewhat dependent on what bugs ya and what doesn't:

Narda - whistle. Also air is a little tight for me, so I tried these others

O-atty - high hopes, but I find mounting a coil a total hassle. Especially if you want the coil low - the walls are high so even after mounting, it's difficult to wick if you've lowered the coil closer to the deck... It does have more air...

Hadaly - much better mounting, but easy to "flood". Juice doesn't come OUT, but you get a gurgle. Cleared with a vape, but it bugs me that I have to pay attention to not oversquonk

Plus, I wish there was something like these, but more amenable to duals...despite trying all of these (or because of it) I have realized it's easier for me to get the vape I like with 2 coils.

    My preference of the 3:

    (1) Narda with air holes enlarged to match the deck holes, eliminate the whistle by chamfering the inside edge of the deck holes.
    (2) Hadaly easy to build, vapes good, just don't over squonk. ShenRay and SXK
    (3) O-Atty nice vape, good air, doesn't leak, but a royal pain to build. (Catfish HD version is probably easier to build)

    My preference is the CV Split(single coil without the top screw blocking the squonk feed). It drenches the coil and all the excess drains into the 2 mil reservoir which is then sucked up for vaping. My Narda clone doesn't seem to whistle so I prefer it to the Hadlay. Don't have the O atty yet(still waiting for my order from China).

    Converted another RDTA to bottom feed this morning. My favorite big RDTA: the bottom air Magma Reborn. Just as straitforward as the Avocado to do. Detail pics this time.

    The Magma Reborn is darn bulky. Now that it's converted, I think I'll shorten the chamber. Looks like I can take 3-4 mm out of it and still clear the coil adequately.

    Used a Dremel with a few diamond grinding bits to make the juice fill hole into the tank. Because it's high up in there and requires working at an angle, drilling is difficult. Grinding with a hand held Dremel got me there easier. Of course, if you're willing to put the hole lower (and get less tank capacity) you can more easily and quickly drill at a right angle.

    Pin was done by first drilling the center hole 5 mm deep just past the 510 insulator, then grinding the cross hole. I wouldn't try drilling the center hole all the way up to the tank hole level because the drill bit would likely drift off center and create problems I don't want.

    LOVE the Coppervape Split. :) Just travelled with it for two weeks, and other that the cap coming off once or twice--the fit is a bit loose--it worked great and never stained my shirt pocket.

    Well the BF pin on my CV broke at the top of the pin. Any alternative replacements besides ordering the hardware kit from FT?

    If you are using another BF RDA beside the CV one, you can take the 510 Pin out of the CV RDA and use it.

    Do you know how it broke?
    Just tightening an addy down?
    Anything we should avoid doing?

    Not quite sure how it broke. It must have some how broke off when I was swapping attys around. Didn't even notice it until I put another atty in and it wouldn't fire. I'm pretty careful when changing attys and such so I'm not quite sure exactly how it happened. Was hoping to see how it performs with my new NoToy.
