I love the flavor on my herakles plus, love the vapor production, love the airflow, hate the fact that no matter what kind of prebuilt coils I put in there, the thing always seems to have a way of collecting juice in its bottom/side airflow control ring...

This RTA looks nice, but will probably wait for some solid reviews before I jump the gun.
I agree. It seems great but im envisioning leaking issues and yet another learning curve of wicking since theres a total of four airholes that are going to be very close to your wick placement. I almost ordered one right away until I noticed this. Seems like too many places for juice to flow down, but its not always that simple. Every rta behaves differently and until i hear some reviews im not sold either way.

Think there's a way to plug up two of them(the ones under the posts?)

Intial build......Dual Claptons, 6 wraps each, 26/32, 3 MM ID....

First wick attempt leaked like crazy, wicked it like the Griffen..rewicked and pulled the cotton through the juice hole and cut them at the deck, tucked them like on the Mutank or Indulgence RTA....not leaking now and it's blowing serious clouds. Flavor is there as well....

Blew through that tank at 60 watts in a couple hours.....

Using the SS drip tip from my Diablo....perfect for this.

Thats a good look with the drip tip. So with this RTA you need more cotton in the juice flow holes than say a griffin so theres no leakage

Yeah, in the Griffin I barely have the cotton in the hole, on this I pulled it all the way through.....

Finishing up my second tank this morning, still hasn't leaked a drop.

just got it in the mail, haven't built it as I am running out of mods to test this one. Question on the juice flow control, its basically unscrewing the base a little bit to open up the juice flow?


Anyone know where I can find a spare glass for this RTA

Yeah, I just turn the tank a tad.

Your didn't have a spare glass? I thought mine didn't but it was on the spare parts tube.

I ended up with this tank sort of accidentally. It wasn't really what I was looking for but my only working tank (lemo2) developed a massive leak and I had to go to a B&M to get something fast. I was looking for a single coil top fill, but this is the closest I could find locally.

I have to say I am really liking it. I'm just running one Clapton coil in it right now. For the other side I just pretended there was a coil and tucked some cotton down in the little slots. It is working great. Cranked the air flow way down and juice control wide open. No leaking and great taste. I really like it :)
