Efan Tsunami RDTA

[caged]

Just decided to take a chance on an Efan Tsunami RDTA. Keep in mind it's "Tsunami style" which indicates it's a clone, but as far as I can tell there is no original Tsunami rba. Efan A. The air intake is through the negative posts (I hope this means it's more resistant to leaks, but I'm not sure how well it will work), ceramic base, and copper center post. 5 ml glass tank too. The 24.5mm diameter is kind of odd though.

Looked interesting enough to take a chance on, but I'm not expecting miracles.

Hmm?

noticed the air intake as well.

I can't see how the air would hit the coils with that design. The airflow looks like it would hit the walls of the outer sleeve and the center post. Seems like if that's the case it will be a hot mess of a vape but who knows. Curious to see how it vapes!

If I'm not mistaken, you place the coil in front of that side airhole; then place one leg through the negative hole with a 90 degree bend, but then you'd have to have a longer leg with a 90 degree bend and the end to reach the positive post hole. Maybe they used the ceramic so you don't have to worry about not having room.

BTW this is a Big Dripper with some... unique additions... I can't really call them upgrades

There are holes on each side of the posts (one towards the center and one towards the edge). I will try blocking the holes aimed at the edges just for kicks. I will also mess with coil placement.

If it doesn't work out, just get a Big Dripper clone; it's the same thing, but it actually is designed to function well lol

I already have one (this will actually be my 4th RDTA), but there are things I don't like about it. It's kind of a pain to build since your coils sit below the deck, you can't see how much juice is left (or how well it's pumping), and the air tube to the mouth piece is split which makes it somewhat of a pain to fill. Also, I don't think the pump works well with thicker juices, at least not when the juice levels drop below half way or so.

I guess I'm just in search of the ultimate RDTA...
