Chakris, I will save you some money. I know the Hornet and Reomizer 2.0 do not fit Vmods. The Vmod requires a 510 atty diameter device to fit down into the cup. Reo's have a wider open cup that accept rba's. Course with Vmod's closed design they never ever leak. Ever. Just cant use an rba. Stick with the Vapage or Avidvapes stuff.

Thanks Bappo, for confirming my doubts. Ya know, I was watching the video over and over again thinking, "How the heck is that gonna fit?"

Would you guys say the HH.357 from avidvaper is the best dripping atty out there? Any suggestions beyond that one?

Also, is it worth it to take out the top wick in a T3?

On the T3 it depends on the thickness of your juice. On the HH I just got one. Now on it being the best ill have to see how the longevity is after the cleanings. So far it's been great and I have been running bobas thru it with no issues. I did however just order 2 Cisco spec 1.5ohm attys so l will report back on those. I been using the HH on a Reo. Trying to get the perfect set up for this Reo and so far it's the HH. Hope that helps a bit. The 1.5ohm HH heats up a lot.

Thx, smitighe; yeah that helps. I'm very green to the dripping "scene" lol. The HH's look very promising. My current 510 atty is fantastic, but not as much vapor as I see in some videos with the HH. People also say that the HH is very clean in flipping from one juice to another. Perhaps I'll give it a shot.

I would try a Cisco spec first. If a CS 1.5-1.8ohm does the job why spend the 20 bucks unless you were like me and wanted to see what all the hype was about. I honestly have a few attys that performs as good but it's the longevity that I think is what it's all about. I have some Joyetech attys that are still working and I got them months ago. Mind you I don't drip ALL the time. I am a carto tank and somewhat RBA fan. I have 2 RSST's on order and 2 AGA-T2's I been working with. So if you trying to get a good atty for dripping maybe a CS one is a little cheaper to start with.

Solid point. My current drip atty is 1.4, but burns too easily around 4volts. However, that's where I get the best vapor. I stick with 3.7-3.9 (starting higher, then bringing it down) Also, I noticed that the atty drips A LOT better on voltage than wattage. My first drip atty, so I don't know if that's normal or not. Hell, 3.7V ego battery vapes better than a Vamo on like 7-8 watts.

I just can't get over the flavor that dripping punches out. I'll try a Cisco spec first, like you suggested. Thanks again!

My my, how a different atomizer and a new coil makes a WORLD of difference, taste and vapor production both! Finally got my new A7 RBA working (damn center post screw has to be almost all the way unscrewed to contact the Provari post) and I am REALLY liking this device! Much more than the Eternity I've been in love with for a few months I do believe! When I bought this RBA (from MyVaporStore) at the end of March, I also got a backup Eternity (which I broke immediately dropping the Provari with it attached in my own personal attack of the clumsies...) and an AGA-S. The AGA-S I have yet to fiddle with so we'll see how that one goes. Anyone have any experience with the A7 or the AGA-S? Any tips or advice (other than "get an HH357 or the like!" :p)

Wyvern Rebuildable Atomizer from Discount Vapors. I got one of these in the mail Today. I'm using the stock coil. it meters out at 4.5 ohms. I'm using a 3.7 volt KTS telescope from the same vender. I like them both. I have been reading a lot of posts for sub 1.0 ohm resistance, I have some other Rba's that are coiled at various ohms some are great vapor makers some just so so.
I guess I'm missing the boat or I'm just not hard to please. I vape them all and enjoy what they give me. I read the reviews on the venders web site and it was mentioned sometimes the air hole can get occluded by the wick, has"nt happend to me yet. Looks and acts like a pheonix but to me it is way better. Just my 2 pennies.

You won't see many people vaping silica RBA/RDAs at sub-ohms unless they're building dual coils (2x 1.8ohm coils will meter at 0.9ohms). Sub-ohms are great with genesis attys on mech mods. If you like a hot vape and tons of clouds, then silica dual coils is for you. Otherwise, RDAs function great in the normal resistance range (1.5-3ohms) depending how warm you like your vape. I drip at 1.8-2.4ohms (depending on the mod), but my gennys are usually at 0.7-0.9ohms. It's all relative.

Just to add my :2c: into the mix. I got two 1.5 ohm, long barrel .357's back in January and use them mainly for testing new juices and they're holding out pretty darn good through several changes of juice. I have yet to do a deep clean on either of them, of course, that may be due to the fact that I'm not constantly testing new juices and not dripping just for fun. (Except for that initial fun you have when you first get a new toy.) They produce thick clouds of wondrous tasting vapor and flavor that amazingly doesn't hang around long if you're swapping juices out. (If you follow the instructions for blowing out the juice properly.)

Whether or not it's the best atty out there is really hard to say, as there are so many of them and my experience with other brands is quite narrow. I believe, it's safe to say they are by far "miles" ahead of the atty's that came with my ProSmoke cig-a-likes and the JoyeTech atty's that fit inside a base and cone cover and puncture/poke into an e-tank. But that goes without saying....

I've tried to use the .357 on my VMod XL bottom feeder, but it seems to have a problem feeding from the bottom. I don't know, could be operator error. However, I find that the Hybrid AMG Bottom feeder atty's form Vapage.com works fantastic with the VMod. Of course, it's been specially designed for just that use. Vapage does carry a AMG Hybrid Universal atty as well, for regular dripping.

I'm not trying to talk you out of the Cisco Spec in any way, just voicing my opinion on my experience. Cisco Spec may be a good one to start out on; I've heard good word on them as well.

Just got an email from GotVapes pushing their latest mech mods. This one has an adjustable airflow. Not sure how gimmicky that is but could be interesting.

This one is kinda ugly but that is in the eye of the beholder.
