I've never owned a white mod but I'd be worried about dirt, personally. It is nice looking though. Really they all are, even the hot pink. It's just a good looking mod IMO.

The Kayfun v4 may have some trouble, as it expands to 23mm with the SS or Glass tank... but i think that will be above the battery cap, so might be OK.

One thing I was worried about with the battery cap was that 22mm RDAs/tanks with airflow that sits right in front of the cap would be restricted. Fortunately, it's a non-issue. It is just big enough of a space and most of my toppers screw on so the airflow is elsewhere, anyway.

Is that a Serpent Mini you've got there. How do you like it?

Yes it is. Only did 1 build on it so far, 26 gauge spaced forgot how many wraps and IAD but came out to 1.2ohms. Its a good stealth tank IMHO. Good flavor due to its short chamber. Its not a cloud chaser b/c I did not want to build it that way since its a single coil RTA. The tank itself is very well built, smooth threads, no machine oil. If you're looking for a very short tank that holds about 2.5mls of juice with a single coil build deck then I would def recommend it.

The building is sort of easy, with thinner wires you have to make sure the wire is trapped b/t the post screws and the post (theres a large enough gap below the post screws that you might have your wire free floating in there with thin wires). I followed some reviewers wicking on youtube where they place the wick all the way down the juice flow slots and so far no dry hits, no leaking.

All in all good stealth single coil RTA.

Glad you like it. I'll probably get one. Love my big Serpent, though I do use a more aggressive coil in it which rivals my dual coil tanks. Would likely dial that back with the Mini.

There must be a Serpent Mini thread around here. Might be good to copy your post there.

TBH I actually prefer the big serpent over the mini in terms of aesthetics. The only con I have with the original serpent is the fact that you can't fully disassemble the tank and if the glass breaks you are out of an RTA. I've got a 24gauge 0.76 ohm build in mine, love the flavor and it does chuck some decent cloudz.

The mini is a tad easier to build than the original, however.

I'm running a twisted triple 28g on my Serpent. Yum.

Yeah, we all live in dread about breaking the glass. I've already dropped mine, no break. Posted a haiku about it in the Serpent thread. :rolleyes:

A Serpent RTA Haiku

my Serpent tank fell
onto the kitchen tile floor
its glass did not break

One of the many reasons I use only rda's is an aversion to glass tanks. Is it necessary any more? WIth temp control there won't be a dry hit if the tank goes dry. Can the liquid level be checked visually in a top fill tank? Tanks would be easier to live with if they were stainless instead of glass. It could even be an after market upgrade.

(After a long voyage, from Pluto I believe, I should have my Pico from Fasttech, by mid week. Pico must be a yet-to-be-discovered moon orbiting Pluto. Based on the comments here I bet it's pink.)

All about options. I'm the opposite, I have a bunch of RTAs but only 1 RDA: tobeco velocity clone. Personally prefer to have some juice capacity in case I feel like taking the tank out. RDAs can be taken out as well but to me its more of a hassle to re-drip so often.
