For everyone testing these out. What are you thoughts on the Zeus for a newcomer into both vaping and RTAs? My only experience so far is with the SMOK TFV8 BB RTA, which took me two days and seven rebuilds to get it to quit shorting out on me. (At least I got a lot of practice building coils and wicking the damn thing).

I also see a lot of you are OBS Nano fans, which was the other tank I was looking at for my first replacement tank. Side by side, which would be best to start out with?

I never had much luck with the nano, but I've been using the dual coil engine as a daily driver for months now. I'm about ready to replace them with the zeus. My only gripe is the lower capacity and the fact that the Zeus is crazy thirsty, even compared to a dual coil set-up.

The juice consumption has more to do with the choice of coils and power settings not the RTA. Personally I’m a single coil single wire between 30-40w vaper.

I would give it a shot. I’m not going to exaggerate and say it’s the easiest deck in the world to build on, but I only had to mess with the coil legs one time to get it right. And as far as wicking it, I got it on the first try, and it seems rather forgiving. Great tank, great flavor.

The only little con I would give this is the airflow is extremely wide open for a single coil RTA (IMO). I have a quad core fused clapton in mine, and run the airflow about 40% open, and it’s still very airy lol.

If you get it, we will help you if you’re struggling with it.

Either would serve you well. Nano would be easier to coil, but Zeus is pretty straightforward as well. Juice consumption and capacity are a bit better with Nano.

Reeversong, I got my Zeus yesterday and have thrown two builds into so far. Other then getting the length of the legs dialed in the Zeus is a breeze to build and wick. I find that the flavor may be as good as the Nano...maybe a little better. I ran one side by side with the same exact build (Nano/Zeus) and they both drink liquid at the same rate. One thing about the Zeus, the wicking is defiantly more forgiving and it lets you vape the tank dry. I found that the Nano always has liquid left on the deck when the wicks start to dry out.

You can't go wrong with either, I do think the Zeus is a better looking tank.

Thanks @Letitia
Just read they supposedly ship from Vegas. Trying to get someone at work a single battery mod because she's about to give up on her pen/carto set-up.
I would order from them if they had something I needed based on what I've read. Use vapecrawler.com for price checking.

I think that I already thanked you once for sharing the info about vapecrawler but if not, THANK YOU. And if I already did well THANK YOU again.
