Ok so had some time with the dvarw and the verdict is very good! Ver,very good indeed! Nicely machined, no oil etc. Dead easy build, wicks beautifully, draw is perfect for me. Rock solid in TC. Just a great little rta with bags of flavour and pretty modestly priced. Brilliant :)
Totally agree - it's an awesome little rta and a perfect example of Form following Function. No fancy bells & whistles just elegant simplicity. It's also ridiculously tiny for something that holds 5ml of juice! My Keras Giga only holds 3.5ml and it's a whopping 1.5cm taller...

Ive been enjoying this tank so much because of its simplicity and capacity that it was the only tank that i brought with me on a 8 day trip to Italy, I'm on day 6 now and its still going strong with no issues. I didn't even bring any building tools with me because i wanted to travel light so I'm pretty impressed! I ended up bringing the Dvarwe because it was a good MTL tank that wouldn't have broken my heart if it was lost/stolen or confiscated. Flavor is a little muted at this point, i tend to rebuild after 20mls or so and I'm on about 60 now. I think when i get back to to the states i am going to do a rebuild with mesh, or mesh/cotton hybrid. Anyone try yet?

I get simplicity. I feel the same way about the ubertoot, I've had 3, kept one and still use it. no jfc (well not one that can be adjusted from the outside) you have to take the tank off to fill but it works well & it's easy, you can literally pour juice in & never any seepage, let's you cut the wicks super short, and some of the densest vapor and best flavor I've had. Never any leaking unless I'm on a flight, always wicks well and always works flawlessly in TC. It's also got the perfect draw all the way open that I like which is hard to find, like a restricted lung hit but more on the mtl side.

But I've switched to the hussar as my main out of the house tank, idk what it is but it gunks up about 1/3 as fast as any other tank I've used and keeps its flavor longer. Other than that I feel it has more of a denser more satisfying vapor and throat hit than the skyline... But I'd like to try some of the other inserts, the ones I have used I feel are badly designed as the have 3 holes and waste air by directing it to where there is no coil even if I stretch it really far...

These ones are my cousin 's though, who's also my roommate & the guy I bought mine from says he has 2 as well. Hopefully they're not the same ones.

I experience the same impressive wick longevity with the Atmizoo Keras Giga. As long as the juice doesn't contain sweeteners I can go a whole week between re-wicks and the cotton still looks clean. It's freakin weird!

Most of the flavorings i use have a lot of sucralose already in them. But yeah it reduces the amount of of time I have to spend on rebuilding and cleaning.

It's very forgiving too, I've forgotten to close the jfc off so many times when filling and all I get is a few gurgly hits.

It might have something to do with the length of the wick, in the hussar I put the coil upside down to be closer to the air & give slightly better flavor, which also means the wick is really short... the ubertoot uses a really short wick also and tends to last a long time. It's not a lot of length for the juice to travel.

I must say the more I use the Reaper's the more I like them... the negatives are I don't like the standard type coil posts and I also don't like the little bit of leaking when filling the tanks but the flavour is excellent and everything else about the tank I love! Flavour is outstanding and I think the looks of the tank are stunning!

As for MTL... I cough when I try MTL for some reason but the airholes go to very very small so the MTL'ers may well be happy with it.

I just realised that I haven't bought any new RTAs since the first batch of Skylines in November 2016! I just found that this together with my Hussar gets the majority of my tank usage.

The Skyline is still the undisputed king of RTA's for me... there is just something about the Skyline... flavour and never ever leaks EVER... and it looks outstanding!

Another cool thing about the skyline is it is an RTA that those whose hands are a bit shaky can load a prebuilt coil on much easier that trying to catch a coil under a screw. Prebuilt coils can be had for pennies on fasttech.
