RDA Derringer vs hobo v3.1

[S2KVenom]

Which atty would you choose and why?

Derringer. Simply because I already have three of them. But I have heard great things about the Hobo as well. Also the Sapor... Just to throw another one out there.

Hobo 3.1... I can't stand the derringer.

I have never used the Hobo 3.1, but I have a derringer.

The Derringer is not that great of a flavor atty, its not a fog machine. It does not hold much juice. If you pull to hard you will end up drinking juice. It is a looker though.

I would personally choose the stumpy but out of the two get the hobo. While the derringer is great there are a few cons, if you over drip even so much as one drop you'll have juice coming out the air holes, the post holes are rather small and you will have a hard time even getting dual twisted 26g in there, the outside gets slick after awhile making it hard to pull the cap off and it can get a bit warm. Don't get me wrong the derringer was a great atty but now it's out classed. I haven't used the hobo v3.1 but from the reviews I have watched it looks like a damn good atty and with the two post design it will be extremely easy to build. Other good flavor attys worth looking into are the Stro Mini v2/v1 and the Stumpy both are two post, produce amazing flavor and clouds and are worth every penny.

Derringer clones are inexpensive. I haven't really looked around for hobo 3.1 clones, so I can't comment on the pricing / quality.
If you are buying an authentic quality won't be an issue in either.
They are very similar dimensionally. The major difference is a 2 vs 3 post design. You can position airflow inlets for either.

Seems to be down to 2 or 3 post preference. I can't speak for the hobo, but the derringer is basically my go-to RDA now.
