My thoughts on the Avocado:
-I think it looks fantastic. Very unique and nothing like my other RTAs and drippers.
-Not liking it very much for single coil, mostly due to the airflow. Wide open is too much air, one hole is way too little. I tried everything in there, 24 and 26 gauge, clapton, alien, etc. Scorched flavor, just not good.
-Dual coil is where it really shines. Wide open it's fantastic. I have dual 3mm 24 gauge Anarchist wire at .25 ohms. Dripper-like flavor. I'm pretty much in love with it. Very dense. Its just phenomenal. By far better and more satisfying than the Griffin or Crius.
-Should have a dedicated fill port. It's not hard by any means to fill with dual coils, but its definitely not ideal.
-Comes apart piece by piece making it extremely easy to clean.
-

I really like it as a single coil, but will give the dual coil config. a shot next time I coil it.

26/32 clapton, 4 wrap, 0.65 ohm at about 35-40w

Also another tip - it wicks so much better if you cut the cotton to sit right in the rim of the holes. Just fill the tank and flip it upside down or tilt side to side for a second after every couple hits. If you stuff the cotton all the way down to the bottom it's very hit and miss. It has a hard time traveling all the way up to the coils.

I believe this may be the best Vape experience I've had to date....

34/24awg kanthal clapton at .76 ohm 47watts. I thought my Griffin guzzled the juice... I can blow through 3ml in 10-15 minutes with this thing....

Deng meng, that's a lot of chain vaping. The 2.5ml last me a couple hours with a single fused Clapton at 50W.

I use rayon, 3.5 mm Id fused single clapton, and it wicks perfect with the wicks to the bottom. It's a great vape. I did thin the wicks about 50%, from the underside, but that's pretty standard for me with rayon

That sounds cool. Been using duals single 24ga. 3.5 ID around . 38 ohms
It works but ramp up is slow. A single fused Clapton sounds right.

Yeah it works great, ramps quick, I only run it at 55 watts but it can go much higher, 50-55 just works great. Plus, it's really easy to fill by just popping off the single coil adapter. I think you'll like it!

Picked up this Avocado last night at local B&M. Super easy building on it. .99 ohms 24g kanthal at 22 watts. Nice. Matches performance of my other favorite attys, but not better. Small e-juice tank = filling a lot. But I am enjoying this atty.

As GrimmGreen says, "I need to spend more time with this one to really get to know it."

So, in my GeekVape collections, I have the Griffin and the Avocado. I absolutely love the flavor and airflow on the Avocado way better than the Griffin. Same build in both, 8 wrap + spaced + 316l 24g dual coil. ... Cotton cut just barely inside the wicking holes down in the tank. Running it on my Evic VTC Mini @ 55.5w and 500F right now. Avocado's Airflow feels twice as airy as the Griffin. Flavor is twice as intense. Its unbelievable!

On a side note, this thing also has not leaked on me either, at all! Filling the tank is also a breeze with a Unicorn Bottle, I just take off the top cap and push the tip down one of the wicking holes and fill up.

I picked one up from a local shop yesterday & I am blown away. Yes it's a juice hog, sure it needs to be filled frequently because of the ml capacity but wow, it's a really nice intro to a Geni style tank & I'm really pleased with my purchase! Yet another winner from Geek Vape :thumbs:

Anyone see replacement glass for this yet?

Google didn't produce any results and I broke the clear one, having to use the frosted replacement, Don't like not having a back up, maybe even 2 or 3....

FYI, in case you didn't know Geek Vape has set up a USA service center for all replacement parts for all things Geek Vape.....
