If you ask ME, its definitely old news...

Then again, I never really got a good experience with the kayfun, and not for lack of trying.

Nay.. instead, for vaping on the go, THIS setup, beats the pants off of the kayfun six ways from sunday...

Agreed, the Reo/cyclone is a great combo. It's my goto work setup.
But at home, the kayfun still reigns supreme.

Id like to draw all your attentions to an atomizer which doesn't get a whole lot of attention, though Im sure everyone is familiar with it.

The Vicious Ant Cyclone, with AFC Cap.
Comes in both Dripper style, and Bottom Feeder, though the Bottom Feeder is much harder to procure. I happen to have both styles as I couldn't find a bottom feeder that had the AFC cap.


Ive been using the Cyclone on my Reo for a couple weeks now, and just recently I put a build on my Dripper mode Cyclone and threw it on my stingray. Now, if I didnt buy a Reo, I never would have bought this RDA. Simply put, its not 22mm or 23mm, and Im a flush mount kinda guy. The only exception I make, is I will put a 22mm dripper on a 23mm mod, so long as its sexified.

But, dudes.. This little thing is BEASTLY!

Ok, no doubt about it, its a TIGHT build deck, getting dual coils on there was a little tricky to make sure the AFC cap clears them, but once you get it setup.. Wow.

this thing REALLY came to life once I put a dual coil build on it. Ive been running it with a single coil .8ohm on my Reo, cuz the Reo doesn't like uber low ohms.. But, once I dropped the ohms to my normal range with a .38 dual coil.. Oh mama.


Im vaping Gambit on this setup, a juice I am extremely familiar with.. this is my 9th bottle since January, I use roughly 2 a month. Gambit is a little finicky in terms of providing that rich dense flavor with every atomizer. Gambit in the ELM Hybrid dripper? Flat and dry. But Gambit in the Cyclone AFC.. textbook! Sweet, Rich, Creamy DENSE as balls, not to mention, warm, and heavy clouds.


Im Glad I bought two of these, because if I could only use this on the Reo, Id be upset. Now I can use one on the Reo, and one on any mod I like, which is wonderful. I highly suggest any of you like minded RDA fiends pick up a VA cyclone. Also, note that, if you dont buy the one with the AFC Cap, you'll need to drill the regular stock cap. Its a single hole, and its TEENY. Not too thick walled though, so drilling is definitely an option. Me.. I really prefer to have an AFC cap for any of my RDAs.

Jman,
If you haven't yet, definitely pick up the sub-ohm kit for your Reo. Makes it a whole new animal.
I have been running dual coil @ 0.35 on the cyclone for the past two weeks with no issues at all.
I agree that the cyclone with afc deserves much more credit.

The gear

Picked up one of the last 5 BF Cyclones last week. They went fast. Apparently Vicious Ant will not be producing them any longer.
A bit of a different post set up than I am accustomed too and looking forward to the vape.
I will def give it props for construction.

Basically the only two setups I'm vaping these days.

 

[LReyes66]

Yup I'm loving my quasar. Use it at home n kayfun on the go. Its all I need really.

Yeah the Quasar is seriously fantastic.

 

[LReyes66]

I just wish the wells were deeper like a origen lol. Once I get my matching cosmic drip tip n vapourday pick ups I'll be seriously done acquiring stuff til the fall or when the next kayfun comes out.

I'm running a single coil setup, but do the airholes have to be aligned in front of the coil in single coil mode? It makes sense u get better flavor when its directly over the coil in dual coil but sometimes I get hot juice splatter coming from the wide hole if I dripp to much.

I agree the well could be a little deeper. I'm just leaving some cotton on the other side to soak up the excess. This is the build I've had in my Quasar for a few days now and I love it.

Parallel 26 at .37 ohms and fantastic.

 

[LReyes66]

What ID is the coil. I haven't tried parallel coil but might try it since 26 n 24g is a lot easier to do parallel

Hi all. I just got a Trinity Copper drip tip from VapeDNA. The copper is not a deep reddish copper like that of the BCV XXIX. Can anyone recommend a copper drip tip that might match?
Thanks in advance.

Maybe it's a bit tarnished. Did you polish it yet?

 

[brawndo]

so can someone point me to the forum to get a pdibb wood bottom feeder?

I did polish it. That was my first thought. Its obviously a different grade of copper. Nice tip though.

Here is the main thread. http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...plier-forum/511889-pdibs-making-mods-220.html
The best way is to PM him to get on the list.
Here is his library thread http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...orum/524238-pdib-library-tech-specs-info.html

They are damn nice. GL

There was a time not too long along, where I said I didn't enjoy cotton as a wick material, and preffered spaced coils on silica...

Everything here is setup with a micro coil and wicked with cotton.

Go figure.
