Hi everyone, starting to vape again after 2 years (100% clean no nicotine, vaping or smoking), can you guys help me out?

- smok Caterpillar
- smok RDA normal/mini
- Smok Scar
- IGO W, S or L
- EHPro Nimbus V3 RDA clone

The caterpillar and EHpro nimbus look the most promising, but thats just by looking at the picures :facepalm:
oh yeah, I pretty much only vaped single coil, my mod is pwm and runs two 14500's, so I probably wont ever dual coil for battery life reasons

Thanks :laugh:

Of the ones you have listed I have an Igo L. Solid RDA for single coil.
Pros: dirt cheap, nice for single coil
Cons: no AFC, you may have to drill out the hole if you don't like a tight draw, to me the the neg post is too close to the edge of the deck

I have read good things about the others you have listed. tough choices!!

I wrap it on the right side of the posts and move the coil to the center, gives a decent amount of room to work with for the wick.

While I really like my Caterpillar, it's a great inexpensive, easy to build RDA... It has air holes on both sides and no way to turn off one side without plugging the holes somehow. If you are looking to just build single coils, I'd go with the Igo-L or as someone mentioned above a Trident V2 clone.

Here's my Caterpillar on a GP Paps clone next to a Trident V2 on a Launcher and Hypertank clone on a Magneto...

I would just add a small strip of tinfoil right behind the gold ring so it stays in place, thats probably enough no?
