It will have to be. I wouldn't trust anything with a chip to survive on a Big Truck,
I have 3 of those Brett. Small and easy to use. Definitely not super durable but for $25 easily replaceable.
Haven't seen my Pico yet, but I did get four new atomizers from China.
The Mad Monkey Mods YFTK STRIKE 18mm RDA/ RBA ;
First of all, the exterior might be 18mm, but the interior is much smaller due to the two cylinder Variable Air Flow. The entire atomizer is stainless steel, but the outside air flow collar is black, as I ordered. It comes as an RDA, but included is a replacement Bottom Feed Center (+) post, replacement post screws (flat head), two short drip tips of different inside diameter, and several replacement o-rings.
While replacing the center post, I noticed it is not in a set position inside the atomizer. The Teflon collar that acts as an insulator also allows the inner post stand to turn. This way you can set you posts as you choose. I set mine at 10:00 and 2:00, to allow more coil space.
My first build tested out as a dead short. There is a small thick o-ring that acts as a secondary insulator between the center post and the base that I must have lost (no, Hula, I didn't eat it) but thankfully there is a replacement.
The two collar air flow is interesting. The inner collar has five different sized air holes, the outside collar is the selector.
I am rocking a 2mm, 7 or 8 wrap, 30 gauge Kanthal coil for 1.8 ohms using the middle air flow adjustment. This is definitely an atomizer for flavor chasers.

Still looking into TC Vaping, maybe these will help.

Copied from another thread in the HHV Forum :
@PapawBrett - Let us know how you like the Invoke. I’m curious about that one.[/QUOTE]
So the slow boat from China finally arrived yesterday. The Eleaf Invoke included, along with the Vandy Vapes Berserker and the Digiflavor Siren 2. All bought to explore Temperature Control Vaping.
For those unfamiliar, the Invoke is a dual 18650, 220W capable regulated mod. It is small, and lightweight. The Invoke is practically hollow as the Mod isn't much bigger than the two batteries. The batteries are charged by removing and placing in a charger, or via USB port. They are installed "one up, one down". There are dual (hardware, software) battery protections.
The Invoke is Temp Control capable, with TC settings for Nickel, Titanium and Stainless Steel. There are also three programmable TCR functions (which I don't use). The larger display is easy to read and navigate. In TC - Mode, Material, Temp Setting, Coil Ohms, Wattage, Amps, and Battery Life are all displayed. I haven't used the 'VW' mode as that is not why I bought it.
The 510 connector is center-located, and will accommodate up to 27mm atomizers.This balances the mod very nicely. The gold firing pin is spring loaded. No worries about making contact here.
The fire button is stiff and clicks (which I like). Five clicks will turn the mod on/ off. The adjustment buttons (+ -) are located conveniently at the bottom of the display screen. Couldn't be easier to adjust wattage or temperature.
My only complaint is the mod is left handed. The fire button could have been placed on the other side, but is not unbearable.
Paired with the Vandy Vape Berserker (MTL tank) using a 7 wrap 0.63 SS coil, I have not put this mod down since I set it up. 19 REOS gather dust as I enjoy what is now my go-to "At Home" mod.
For about $35, I am very pleased with the Invoke !

I am probably behind the curve on this one, but ...
MTL Tanks. The Vandy Vape Berserker and the Digiflavor Siren 2. Both are single coil, top fill tanks with adjustable airflow rings at the base. And both are flavor chasers.
I am using both tanks with 316 Stainless Steel coils for Temp. Control Vaping. And these tanks easily exceed the older Kayfuns (Original, KFL V2+) that I own.
The Berserker is a 24mm base, with either 2ml or 4ml capacity depending on the pyrex glass and chimney you use. I am using the shorter one. The airflow control ring turns to select one of four sized air holes. Judging by the air holes, this is not a cloud chaser by any means. Following a suggestion by P. Bushido, I close the air ring to top fill and avoid flooding issues.
No leaks, no gurgles, no issues for 24 hours. Just plenty of flavor.
The Siren 2 is a 22mm base, with a 4ml tank. The build deck uses clamps to secure the coil leads, making installation easier. There are multiple single air selection, that can can be chosen singularly or in combination as the ring has a hole and an offset wide slot. There are three air ports under the coil instead of one. The juice ports on either side of the build deck are wide - so wide you would think it would flood. But it does not. No leaks or gurgles. Massive flavor.
Both tanks came with additional glassware, set screws and O-rings.
If anyone is looking for an exceptional tank for a fraction of the cost of a Kayfun, either of these would do.
