Thank you all... It looks like I am either going for a kayfun (clone) and (if i can convince the wife for a birthday gift) the Erlprinz...
Any thoughts on the goblin mini?
Thanks for the info... I will keep you posted.
IMO, as a new builder, stay away from the Erl's. Sure, they're easy to coil, but they're a nightmare to get the wicking right. (and they're ugly)
As a new builder, I'd recommend getting an RTA that allows you access the build deck without draining the tank so that you can make adjustments with the least amount of fuss if something doesn't go just right. The new version of the Kanger Subtank Mini is probably worth a look. Not only can you access the build deck easily, if all goes wrong, you can always slap an OCC coil in it and still have a tank to vape.
I don't have a Goblin Mini, but it looks like a leak waiting to happen for a new builder.
