If you build it right you won't have to do much tilting at all unless the tank gets really low..
I'd suggest trying SS rope with a mesh sleeve. Wicks amazingly! A little more difficult to set up, but once you get the hang of it I guarantee you will love it.

Nice, I've got some mesh waiting for it, along with rope on the way! I like the idea of rope better, just because I'd imagine it'd have better capillary "sucking" power, with mesh I can see the juice having to "crawl" over the horizontal strands. Although I'm a big fan of cottons wicking speed, I think I'll give it a shot with that first. With cotton you can put a little extra on the deck to hold some extra juice while the tail in the tank is busy wicking, plus I like to be able to change out a fresh wick almost daily for the fresh taste. I'd hate to build a nice ss wick and it start to taste gunky (not sure if it ever does), and throw it out before it's life isn't even 1/8th over.

Try a helios, it'll give 'super easy' a new meaning for you

I almost bought a helios because I love that two positive post design, it's a builders dream. However the brass monkee had the same design but with a smaller (better) vapor chamber for that dense vape. I can fit the biggest dual coils in that thing, and they truly get their own power supply. But yeah I started with the trident, and it's miles more convenient, I almost felt like a traitor going to something easier , but it just allows me to build more perfect coils.

Here's the thing. ..You're talking about at least two VERY different experiences. My suggestion would be to spend $20 on an RSST and $20 on a Kayfun/Russian clone... And see which system suits you more. You see the popularity of Kayfuns, and I love mine. It's my work tank. But I love gennys too. And good points were made about those as well. At home I use a Kraken and a Zen or I drip!
Try the styles cheaply then make an educated decision based on YOUR experience!!
As to the T1... It looks to be similar to the Kayfun style in Tank mode??? But you can drip with a Kayfun... Maybe just astetically diffetent???

I'm not buying clones anymore (besides the kayfun ones because they are proven to be Identical besides thread quality), I'll definitely end up trying both soon, but for now I went with the genny! Because it's what looks better to a builders trained eye (airflow, and coil wise) plus I'm getting the authentic grand vapor built version and every review I've read claims it's the nicest workmanship they've delt with, so it really just caught my curiosity. I'll be dripping at home like you a majority of the time, but it'd be nice to have during a long movie or whatever. And yes I know the difference between the two, one goes with gravity, one doesn't.

-I think it all comes down to my preference, I'd much rather have a dry hit than flooding, which I've heard is a minor issue among kayfunners (that I'm positive I can fix), along with the wish for larger airflow, and I'm a guy that likes freakishly large airholes, and the prometheus has two. I'm an excellent builder, and I've gotten my wicking down to a flawless science so I don't think I'll have a problem with either of them, and I will have both because I think they both look amazing reguardless of my preferences. The russian is probably the first topper I've ever wanted to buy on looks alone, plus it works great from what I hear. I may have made the wrong decision in buying the prometheus first because I like bottom coil carto's more than top, however I haaate flooding. I'd rather re-wet the wick myself, than have to burn it away, and wait for that boiling juice to evaporate, if I can fix it myself by dripping a little, it'll probably make the waiting 4x faster so that's the reason I chose the prometheus.

-But I'll find out by the end of the month which I like better!

have fun with the promethius. if its your first genny, be patient with it. the work you do will be rewarded in the vape. be persistent, and it will pay off.

its more work to set up a genny, but the maintenance is basically nil. other attys are a breeze to set up, but need constant wick changes. both styles are good in their own regard. i own both styles and like both.

that tatroe t1 is new to me. after a brief look at the photos, i cant see how liquid gets to the coils. the deck appears to be 100% solid with no holes. :/

It's pretty slick , it dispenses the liquid one drop at a time through pressure. You unscrew the top cap a little and it pulls an air bubble from the RDA chamber, then screw it back down and it pushes however many drops (bubbles) into your RDA chamber (it's got a really tight seal in the tank area basically so the liquid can't fall through on it's own, and then when you unscrew and rescrew it basically pressurizes the liquid out, it's alot simpler to understand if you watch this video lol). I didn't get it when I first saw it either, but that's why I like it so much; it's literally an RDA, and a manual juice dispenser on top.
