Hi

I'm starting to like the idea of getting myself a RBA (would love to recoil and have control over the shape, ohms and wiking... problem is that I like mini sized tanks like the pro tank 3 or the aerotank mini... even on a zmax (also mini lol).

Is there a RBA out there that would fit my needs/dreams/whishes?

I know there are some Kayfun mini clones available but that particular tank looks kinda ugly to me, I mean... I've seen torture instruments shorter than that!


Thank you very much :)

Regards
Tony

lol

So true... call me crazy but I do like mini sized tanks because a) I can use them on smaller batteries like the IVV 3.0 when out on the street and b) still can use it when I come home and fire up the zMax mini (I like the looks of a protank 3 on a zMax mini.) If I were to be cought at home sucking on a zMax wit a full sized tank, I can only imagine what my wife would think (starts with a v.... lol)

Thanks. It does look nice and strait... the taifun gs still has some type deformation i.e. the glass seems to be larger than the rest and on the pictures it looks larger on top than on the bottom.

Only two problems I can see are the price ( :( ) and the fact it isn't a bottom coil... aren't those better than top coiled?

Thx

Tony

A Kayfun Mini clone (or real if you can find it) is only 14mm.

I think you meant: A Kayfun Mini clone (or real if you can afford it) is only 14mm.

:)

The problem is that it is so TALL... I mean, I didn't measure my protank mini 3 but that kayfun looks like twice as tall (well maybe I'm exagerating but 30% taller no?)

It is a bottom coil and Yes IMO they are better than top coils If price is a problem there are clones for reasonable price's
It does tapper down to a smaller size at the bottom
For a small size RTA there are not a lot of choices out there

Thanks. It does look nice and strait... the taifun gs still has some type deformation i.e. the glass seems to be larger than the rest and on the pictures it looks larger on top than on the bottom.

I have one and it is a bottom coil tank (which I prefer). I have an HCigar clone and it works great. The only four drawbacks for me were:

1. Small airflow hole (and it's not adjustable). I prefer a more open airy draw.
2. The tank is not glass. I do not use "tank cracking" juice in it.
3. The posts do not have holes.
4. Not the easiest to re-wick. Watch a youtube video and you will see what I mean. However, the difficulty (for me) has more to do with a one-handed disability.

Even with all this said, I still use it. Even though I have many other tanks.:)

Susan~S: actually one of my fav stores in spain have it in stock (also hcigar version) here

regarding the kayfun, 3/4'' is still 1.9cm taller BUT I'm starting to talk myself into it... :)

have to watch some youtube videos about them... the kayfun I know is a bit finky (leaking wise) during refills if you're not careful. Didn't read anything bad about the taifun gs clone... have to keep reading :)

Thx for your input :)

Tony
