Man it's sad to hear all the troubles so far. I really like the velocity style deck. Oh well will have to wait for someone to do it better I suppose.

I was trying to look on fasttech for that and couldn't fin an authentic. I would appreciate a link to the one you recommend if it's not too much trouble. TIA.
The only place I've seen it for sale is directly from Steam Crave: http://www.steamcrave.com/products_xq.asp?id=53
Precisely why I am holding out until I find a real nice one that I will be happy with for a while.
Looks like a beauty. Will have to do some more reading. Thanks.
I gave up fiddling with this tank earlier this evening. Fortunately the juice control seems to be in a good position because I'm not getting any dry hits, and there are no leaks when top filling it. My air flow control is stuck wide open and luckily that's just the way I like it. All's well that ends well I guess.
I agree but at this point i would wait for the inevitable V2 aromamizer, with the bellus coming out I am sure we will see a V2 from them soon to throw the market back in their direction. I will say one thing i do not like about steam crave though and that is that they essentially LOCK the prices on their products by making them available nowhere else due to crap wholesale pricing. My buddy owns a B&M and was trying to get in a bunch of the RDTA and was getting prices back from them that were absolutely terrible (talking only a few dollars under their retail), he would have to charge more than their prices to make it even worth it. The only way they would make them even somewhat reasonable was if he took in over 1500 units that had to be mixed with their other products which they obviously should know is over the top for any brick and mortar with a small e business.
I really like their atty but I can not help but frown upon crappy biz practices like those, funny thing is they would be more successful as a business if they just took the wholesale approach instead of trying to do the direct to consumer approach that they seem to be taking. That is the reason companies such as aspire/kanger/joyetech/UD are so successful, they wind up moving way more units by having great wholesale prices and we the consumer benefit from the good wholesale prices since it allows retailers to undercut each others prices while still making a profit.
I am also looking at the bellus but maybe I will heed your advice and wait for aromamizer V2.
We'll just have to agree to disagree.
Try 50J at 400F on some 28g ni200 in a kayfun, and let me know how pleasant the vape is.
The wattage/joules you throw at a coil directly impacts the vapor produced and the heat of the vapor, regardless of temp setting, in my experience at least. What I mean is same build/atty at 25w/j and 450F produces less vapor and is much cooler than 50w/j and 450F.
This is all incredibly off topic though. How are those Cthulhu v2s??
Thats really weird the w/j should only effect the ramp up time to max temp that said the KF4 is well know to be a bit weird with TC even with a spring less connection to remove the Ohm drift.... i've seen quite a few people claim that they just run it -50F to what they normally would of the KF4 as well as the Squape probably half of it is both give a hotter vape due to more restricted air flow.... I just use kanthal for the best part because its easier than ni200 just because you can just reuse the coil time and time again.
Anyway back to topic I rewicked my build on the Cthulhu v2 and now its leaking a little if i dont close juice control i swear i did change the wicking much but i must have - so i take back that statement where i said you do not need to close juice control it seem more like if your lucky you do not need to close juice flow.
Seeing alot of people calling this a complex atty I really do see how it is complex it has around 16 parts all up and the most simplistic juice control i've every seen!
Really intrigued to see how other people are finding this RTA who received it in the last batch. gl
Since i found a site that had the bellus for $22 shipped i wound up buying anyways since it was so dang cheap, I would say that it will prolly hold me over to the v2. The top fill and 22mm straight styling alone sold me on that one especially for such a cheap price. I hope that in the future all china made RTAs will be around that price point. 20 is such a small investment that I will make it almost every time.
Back to the topic at hand, I wound up swapping my SS preorder to a black one over at smog. With the early QC issues people seem to be having i would rather get a black in a month that has at least lessened problems. Plus since i have so few black RTAs it will stay in my collection regardless of if it winds up being only MEH.
Ya that is a good deal and the top fill is very intriguing. I just don't want to start a snowball affect so am really be careful till I pull the trigger. I basicaly want a well built RTA that has dual coil, top fill, and a large capacity. Goliath looks good but no top fill. I'm kinda confused on what to get because their is so many out there and just want to get one.
FWIW, I top fill my Goliath v2 95% of the time, only time I don't really is when I'm putting in a new build/wick since I have the tank open anyway.
Ya I was reading somewhere people do that. Really considering one. That aromamizer looks real nice though too.
Yup tis true that the Gv2 is actually very easy to top fill despite not having a "designated" system like the bellus/Cv2. Ever since i learned the top fill technique it has become a daily atomizer. Every modern RTA that is going for the practical design should have at least a method if not specific designed system for easy top fill nowadays, at least IMO. I can forgive attys like the goblin mini for not having it since it would ruin the look, and that minimal aesthetic is very important to that tank.
I find it easier to top fill than to using the juice flow slots, just my opinion.
Yup same here, never have to worry about stuff like bubbles in the slots and it only takes like 2 seconds to screw off the cap and fill it. Totally changed my opinion on that RTA from OK to GREAT. My fav thing about the goliath line is its build deck though, it is prolly the best standard 2 post i have ever used on any atty thanks in part to the gosh damn amazing screws it comes with that NEVER clip your leads no matter how much you tighten them. If an atomizer is not going to have the velocity style deck currently then the goliath style is a perfectly acceptable alternative imo. I have always preferred 2 posts to 4s so i am really happy to see them make a come back.
Hmmm so Aromamizer VS Goliath..??? TIA for advice.
