If you could only have ONE RBA... what would it be?

I just grabbed a 1/16th drill bit from the machine shop. Holy tiny! Are you putting like 3 separate stands of cotton through that hole? If more....how???

The mind boggles.



I twist mine up by hand. This is an untwisted pinch and another one ready to go in the coil..

Epic picture is epic! Thank you for that. The quarter for scale helps tremendously!

Haha, you asked for it, brotha! lol

Just wrap one up, it ain't all that hard to do

To be honest, I think there would be a "market" for guys like Statistic and XDrifter to make up coils for others. :)

I myself will never build a coil, too much hand arthritis but I sure would love to own an RM2 and have coils for it!!!

I get mine from Www.pdibscoilworks.co and when they are out of stock I purchase from www.darkzeroindustries.com. I may also try www.statisticallywrapping.com cause they look equally as beast :)

J/k :) but those dudes, among others got game when it comes to tickling the wire :)

Those are fictitious websites :)

Yes it is.

Also wondering if you have large hands, cause that is the way a MINI reo (14500) looks laying in my hand, and you are holding a GRAND!

Yeah I say the Grand is "small" a lot. I don't take hand size into enough consideration sometimes.

My paws are pretty big, and you know what they say about a guy with big hands.. right?


























He wears big gloves! (gitcher mind outta that gutter!)

My 2 cents, The DID. Short, mini or standard as long as it has a ceramic wick. Best overall flavor and vapes like a train. I DIY and this combo is the only setup I've found that allows me to actually taste all the flavors I have layered into my juice.
The REO is a must have. With the Super_X micro cotton coil nothing vapes better clouds, but the flavor doesn't seem to have the depth of the DID.
Third, Foggatti. Although the flavor is very good it only allows small mesh wicks. No way to drill for ceramic and ceramic wins the flavor test.
After a year of searching to answer OP's question, any silica, cotton or mesh atty simple cannot deliver what a DID w/ceramic can deliver. (a least for me).

Love my genesis atomizers, collecting a bunch of sub-30 dollar attys. have a couple agat2s and couple rssts and an agi plus a few did and "cobra" clones. Out of all of them, my favorite RBA, that i own, is my "Z-atty clone" (not quite an exact clone (i believe the rsst is closer to a true clone of the ac9 than this is to the z-atty), it is just modeled after it). Absolutely superb, dirt cheap, better vape and easier coil to wrap than the aforementioned attys, and looks nicer IMO. It has a smaller wick hole than those more popular genny, around 2.2mm, but it hits as good, if not better. Perfect with my ss cable, 3/2 wrap of twisted 28g kanthal and air hole expanded to 5/64, though i am very tempted to go to 3/32.

I love this budget-vaper's setup (two tone kts+ flat top with black oring accents to match the rings in "z-atty clone" tank), which you can get for about 35 bucks shipped to your door.
