Dark Horse RDA

[DFYLR]

I like my Dark Horse (clone) a lot. It does look great, but what I like best about it is its versatility. I can slap a cloud chaser build on it and make dragons jealous if I want, or I can put a cooler build on it for my normal flavor chasing. I prefer cooler builds (usually between .4-.6ohm) geared towards flavor production over sporty clouds
Right now I have it in single coil mode, airflow as open as it goes in single coil mode, 5 wrap 24g macro parallel coil that reads at .42ohm. Firing it with a 1:1 copper Vanilla clone with a Samsung 18650 30amp battery. When I had dual 4 wrap 24g parallels on it, I couldn't use it on my Vanilla clone, it just heated the whole mod up too fast and made me nervous about venting, but my brass Munstro v1 worked fine with the lower and hotter build.

I notice it performs better if you place the coil lower to the deck. Not too high not too low

I could not agree more, definitely smoother.
I find it is all but impossible to flood mine.24gauge @ .7ohms.

I'd like to see a deeper juice well on the next version. It's pretty shallow and gets a little messy on the regular.

 

[lucky_x16]

That would be nice, I agree.
Have you checked out the Vulcan rda?

 

[DFYLR]

I haven't. I've already got a TOBH, so I don't think I'll be buying another 3 post flavor chasing atty with fins unless it craps out on me at some point.

I will let you know what I think of mine, Vape mail today!!!

 

[DFYLR]

Sweet! I know a couple of dudes that have them, and they've both drilled out some holes in the barrel for extra air flow. They like hot builds and big clouds though, so if you're just going for flavor you can probably leave it how it ships.

Vulcan with a .75ohm dual coil build!


And it looks great on my Kato!

It'll be a challenge to trap that small wire under the screws in the huge post holes, I would think. Certainly doable but it'll be easier with bigger wire IMO. If you are going to use the 29ga, I'd twist it for sure.

Post holes are plenty big enough to get two legs of twisted 26ga through the positive post with room to spare. I got two twisted 24ga legs through there as well but the coils were too fat for the deck.

Twisted 26:

Awwww....
I wanna do this twisted thing.... Where's my 28g Kanthal!!!!!!!!!
Next project coming soon, watch this space.
