I received my Erlkonigin clone a few days ago.....it seems to be a very accurate copy. It is the same as the $20 clone on fasttech. It is very well made. Building on it fairly easy unless doing dual coils then it is very difficult. The weight of is awesome....it is super light and holds a crap load of liquid. The top fill holes work well but your need a needle nose bottle to fill it. The chimney is very small so it doesn't produce the type of vapor I am used to. I tried a bunch of builds with different diameter coils and different gauges of wire. No matter the build it seems the vapor is way too warm for lung inhales even though it has plenty of airflow. The vapor tastes good but not as good as the Taifun, Kayfun or Squape. If you favor the Aqua, the Fogger v4 or the Orchid like I do...I suspect you won't like the Erlkonigin as much. It is just not my cup of tea. Of course YMMV.

Wow. It looks just like the erlkoenigin.

I ordered a erlprinz a couple of days ago and a nano kit.
The time I would need to wait for the clone justified the price difference (for the atty).

I'm still thinking about that clone with the metal drip tip though. The price of the clone Is about the same as the original drip tip alone so just for the drip tip it's worth having some spares at home if things go south.

I. The vapor tastes good but not as good as the Taifun, Kayfun or Squape. .

Thanks for the info. I have the squapeR and like it very much! That is why I asked. I want another RTA and liked what was said about the erl. What is the deal with the dual coils being hard? Not enough room? I like the single coil on the squape. My present build is a 1.3Ω coil with ss mesh and I vape it at 11w, it gives me all the vapor I need. But, it does suck the juice down, 8mls a day! Versus 4mls on my protank mini.

Have had the erlkonigin for a couple months and love it. I own a bunch of RTA tanks and find this tank to be at the top of the list. Just recently received the erlp and is an amazing tank for the price. Performance side by side to the erlk is identical. I also ordered the erlkoenigin nano which fits on the erlp.

Hard to recommend or not recommend an atty to a stranger....it is so subjective. I like RTAs that vape like RDAs. My favorites are the Aqua, Fogger V4 and the Orchid. The erl clone vapes more like a Aspire Nautilus or protank to me vs the atties I described. Also the Squape R looks like an expensive piece of hardware while the Erlkonigin base configuration looks and feels very cheap. It is just not my style of atomizer. But the Erl clone seems to be very accurate copy and I would bet the parts are interchangeable to the real one. I would get the clones from FT and not the Prince. The clones from FT will probably be more accurate copies. It is worth paying $20 and finding out for yourself if you like it....a lot of people like the Erl obviously.

edo how its going? i don't really drip all that much so i cannot really say how the erlk compares to those other tanks on closeness to a dripper but what i can say is the authentic erlk is a much more satisfying vape compared to the aqua and fogger imo. i love my aquas and kind of like my fogger (although i don't think the fogger is quite as good as the aqua) but the erlk is in another class if you ask me. the flavor in the erlk is just as good, if not better then the aqua, it produces about the same vapor as well but what i like about the erlk is the weight and capacity. at first i did like the heaviness of the aqua and kayfuns, they felt substantial and well built but now they seem out dated and bulky compared to the erlk. i now make the comparison that the aqua and kayfuns are like Cadillac's and the erlk is a bmw or Mercedes or even a Ferrari. when i vape a dripper (although i don't really like dripping) i feel satisfied and don't need as many vapes as an aqua, maybe this is because of the nic delivery or something. this is exactly how i feel when i vape the erlk, for some reason it is more satisfying then any other tank i own or have owned in the past. i don't know why this is so, but it is. if you feel the erlk clone vapes like a protank, then either the build was off, or that clone is awful because the erlk is nothing like a protank at all, not even in the same universe.

Thanks...new to chrome so didn't realize there was a translate option up top.
I believe even without chrome you could do it, isn't there a couple of little flags up at the top? Maybe I'm thinking of another site but I thought there was a British flag at the top.

The Erlkonigen site? I use Chrome for my browser, and it asked me if I wanted to translate (yes, definitely, lol!)

You'll get a much better translation if you click on the little British flag icon just under the search box (on the home page).
I love my ErlkPrinz and agree with vapdivrr that it performs just like the original erlkonigin at a fraction of the price. The Erlkonigin clones from FT look to be an even better value for $20. Here's my Prinz with the nano kit- my pocket rocket!

That looks very nice :)

You don't happen to have a mini Protank 3. I would love to see the pt3 tip attached to that adapter (that's what I'm planning to use on mine but the atty is still in the mail)
Thx

Due to the shorter tank and chimney, the Prinz nano vapes much warmer than the full sized version. I found the 510 adapter and plastic drip tip helps to cool the vape.

Hey Vapdivrr...long time. I want to blame the clone....but it seems like it is very well made. The only way to find out if the clone is a good one is for some one that already owns an Erl to buy a clone and do a comparison. But I have to admit that I just can't stand the Derlin drip tip. I was making my coils like I do for my other atomizers....micro coils (1.5mm diameter) using 30g wire. But since the Erl has such a small chimney the vape was too intense. I also did micro coils using 28g wire but it was still too intense. After reading you post I decided to give the Erl another shot. I did an old fashioned 10 warp 3/32 coil using 28g wire. The vape is much better. I can't help but feel I need even thicker gauge of wire to smooth out the vape a bit more.....unfortunately I don't have any 26g wire left. Maybe I have to twist some wire. Any suggestions are welcome.

PS I also found that having no cotton going down the channels to work best.
