Hybrid dripper wanted! Help me decide.

[yuseffuhler]

As the title says, I'm looking for a hybrid (real, not just topcap) dripper. 18650, good airflow (lung hitter) and at least 3 posts for a dual coil setup. The only one I've seen so far has been the Valkyrie, and it seems to be nicely made, just not sure about the airflow on it. Thoughts?

well I only recently got a 3d; haven't coiled it yet; looks like its really intended for single coil. it hybrids to the nemesis (m20x0.5 I believe)

other than that there's the elm

hybrids to treeoflife; not sure the threading.

looks like its m20x1 from the discussion threads on fasttech

Thanks! I'll take a look. With fasttech I can afford to try more than one lol.

neptune clone:
$21.68 Neptune Styled 18650 Dripper Hybrid (18650 Hybrid (w/510 top cap)) at m.FastTech.com - FastTech Mobile

currently my favorite. easily adjustable for flat top or button top batteries, and the switch is better than most of my authentics.

I have a tree of life/elm, and love it. but they got pushed to the back seat when I got this.

just keep in mind, use a DMM to check resistance/shorts...can't use a mod or ohm meter.

currently running .3 ohm dual coil, 2.5 ID, 24 gauge. it's perfect airflow for big lung hits. it's not adjustable, but at .3, it not even really warm yet.

Forgot to mention, I've been rebuilding for a few months. I use a DMM and ohmmeter for my dripper builds, I'm pretty knowledgeable about battery safety. Otherwise I'd not be looking at a hybrid. Looks like the Neptune is on the list next to the Valkyrie. Minor caveat with the Valkyrie; looks like I'll have to do a little work on it.

I have a Valkyrie.
The Valkyrie has a very tight draw and a very small deck.
The switch is finicky, there's a thread here with some fix suggestions.
It's a decent mod, EHPro clones are very close to the original.
It's great for vapers that enjoy a tighter draw.

Well, I looked up the thread and saw you in there offering some pretty sound advice. Looks like removing the lower delrin piece ill be golden. Regarding the draw, is it nautilus mini tight or just tight for a dripper, like the magma? I'm ok with the small deck; if I want to get crazy with builds I'll switch to my box mod anyway. If I can at least get decent flavor out of it, it would still be worth it.

It's not too tight but the combination of tight draw/tiny deck kinda forces you to stay away from crazy builds or it gets super hot and dries the wick too fast.
It's not really a cloud chaser mod.
If you're not into crazy builds, it's a damn fine hybrid.
Flavor chasers dripper for sure.
