FYI, the single and double pin airholes are virtually worthless so this would be something to recommend for improvement even though it won't matter due to deeming regs.
Set mine up in single coil first just to check out how it works. Had to put it in the freezer for a little while to get the damn thing apart cause I couldn't get it unscrewed to wash it! I think I need to thin out the wicks a little before sticking them into the tank cause I think it's a little tight & not wicking as well as it could. Flavor is pretty good, all in all I think it's a good purchase. I'll put in a dual coil build later.
Wondering if anyone who has one yet also picked up a Theorem and, if so, how you think they compare? Youtube reviewers have been a mixed bag. Quest4Vape saying you cant compare them as they do different things. GrimmGreen saying Theorem, etc. Wondering real world, us minions, what the thought so far is? Love the Theorem and instead of getting another was really thinking this would be the better purchase for the additional capacity. I am more worried about flavor.
I am receiving my 24 tonight and will post the comparison. I really like the Theorem and would love that in an "On the go" package. Hoping the 24 will fit that. I will be starting with a single Clapton which is typically how I vape the Theorem and the RTA 25. My RX200 and DNA200 will be the vehicles. Only thing I will warn is that I am not a "clouds brah" vaper. I appreciate a dense flavorful cloud, but disdain at filling my office with Vapor.
From a flavor perspective I like the Avocado 24 and even the regular Avocado better than the Theorem. The Avocado's just give a much more dense and flavorful vape. I think it has a lot to do with the top cap to be honest. I have 3 Theorems collecting dust at this point. It's not that the Theorem is bad, it is actually very good. Little fiddly, but very good. But the Avocado is just a step above. Just my opinion...
The notch coils....just no man....just no.

Thanks, I am not a clouds vaper either. I chase the flavor. Look forward to your thoughts. I also utilize a clapton in my Theorem so happy to hear your review will be off running claptons in each as well.
Thanks. The more I think about it the more it makes sense to pick up the Avocado. Worst case scenario I go pick up another Theorem if Im not a fan but I dont expect that to be the case. As for the notch coils I actually never ran them. I yanked it right away after reading other people saying they werent huge fans. I am sure I will get intrigued at some point and throw it in there to form my own opinion but right now I am more than happy with a clapton in the Theorem.
LOL, I love the comment. I think you are so right... I feel they vape and taste like a pre-made. They might be right at home in a TFv4, but not in my Theorem!
As always each to their own...

Ironically from the flavor perspective I prefer the Theorem. However it's important to know that I like single coils at around 35 W using stainless and temp control.
Slapped 4MM Macro Verts on the Guacamole Macheen.
Good Lord flavor and vapor for DAAAAAYZZZZZZZZ.
Looks Boss on my RX as well[emoji12]

Well I got mine and changed to the clear glass and ended up breaking it... Noob move on my part. But my oh my the flavor on this thing. I think it may be better than the Theorem. Running single Clapton.
What is the consensus on wicking technique? This is the first tank I still can't seem to get the hang of. More cotton, less cotton, longer into the tank, shorter into the tank, still fairly consistently getting dry hits. Can't seem to nail it down. My initial 3mm Clapton ran like a champ for a while, then suddenly choked off and never recovered. Every other build comes out dry. Driving me nuts.
I am using a 2 mm clapton. Normal thickness wick hanging just under the top of the deck (about 5-8mm). No issues wicking all the way to the bottom of the tank.
I've been using a Velocity clone for a few weeks now. How does this Avocado compare in regards to airflow and flavor? Looking to get an RDTA for convenience, however I like my RDAs cuz I can leave them in my car in the hot Arizona sun and I don't have to worry about it leaking. I understand this RDTA isn't an RTA so I won't go around leaving it upside down in my car in the sun. Just looking for something more convenient at home I don't have to keep dripping on all the time.
Short wicks long wicks no matter.
Just make sure the wick is not choking off at the deck. Remember wick expands.
I take 20g wire and create space between the wick and deck holes to insure juice flow.
If you use too much wick yiu will not be able to create the space and yiu will choke off your flow.
When you vape it in single coil, tilt the mod to your mouth in the same direction as your coil....so coil on the bottom, then your juice will tilt right into your wick and coil. That's called the genny tilt[emoji15]
If you run duals, it's a good idea to turn the mod back and forth so each side saturates especially when your tank is running low.
Good luck, let us know.
Airflow is very similar. Both big air. I own both.
It won't leak when heated up in the sun either if its standing upright.
Tilting your mod to saturate your wicks is much different than any RDA so takes getting use to.
The other thing is you pummel through juice since it's just right there. You don't have to do the drop ceremony every 10 hits or less.
That's the good part as well as the bad part.
I stopped vaping for a year or two and was coming from old tanks like the Kanger Protank. I liked the idea of the RDA because of less leaking and messes. However after a few weeks of being back into vaping again I'm curious about the Avocado because it looks like a good combination of the flavor of an RDA but the convenience of a tank.
