I got vape mail today. Always a good day when that happens.
Opened the package to find my Helios rda. Turned on my adjustable florescent light/ large magnifying glass and began an up close inspection.
The drilled holes in the positive and negative posts had metal burrs in them. Had to ream them out just so I could get 30ga wire thru them. 2 out of the 4 holes were fine.
One of the neg. posts had a large scrap across it. Looks like someone took a small grinder to it!
The AFA ring is tight. So tight that you need really pinch the unit hard to turn it. I understand it should stay were you put it and shouldnt move if you were to grab it, but this stiff ring is a pain to adjust!
The O-rings that hold the cap to the base are too small in diam. they barely, and I mean barely hold the cap to the base. There is no way you could adjust the AFA ring with out turning the whole cap assem. on the base.
All of that aside I put a dual coil .5 ohm in it. This was a breeze for the fact that the base and posts have a great design.
Threaded a cotton wick in and fired this unit up. Does it work?? OMG What A Hit!!! The performance is outstanding.
The attempt at a hand engraved set of initials is a joke! The unit would look much better without the shaky scratches!
For the money I spent on this rda I was expecting much much better craftsmanship. I have a $17 clone rda that looks better than this and works ALOMST as well.
BUYER BEWARE
