Looking for a new atty for flavor: the fight between the YAELIQ, VIKING, OR MAGMA!

This response won't help much as I only have the Magma, but I do love it. The Yaeliq looks interesting though. I do find the Magma to have a warmer vape that my other attys and I'm guessing the conical cap helps there. Deep juice well, adjustable airflow, and ability to choose single or dual coils are all positives.

thanks so much guys. The magma has that kind of warm vape that I'm looking for really. Thanks for the idea about the Hobo. I had checked that out as well, but I just don't think I'd use that much airflow in an RDA. The magma seems to be a real popular one throughout the masses. I only heard from one person about this Yaeliq and nothing on the Viking.

I know I'm going on a tangent here, but can anyone tell me some advantages to using single coil if I do choose to get a Magma, for it seems that a lot of people use that on it. Any pros and cons will do. I'm just afraid of less of a throat hit with single, but I'd like to see some of the pros, for I am somewhat new to building you would say.

Thanks again for the input guys! This site is really great. Wish I had gotten to it sooner.

Magma and Origen always get high marks for flavor.

Pros for me with a single coil are that you can get more flavor, as there's less air (but I still get a satisfying cloud). Also less likely to leak with only one hole open, which is easier when I'm out & about. Dual coils will pump out more watts, but with variable voltage becoming more popular, you can just set to the same power.

For starting out, building single coil is usefull; well more than usefull; you got nothing to worry about with throat hit; that's more to do with nic strength; once you get your coil set up in a way that you are happy with, you can always add a second coil of the same build if you want, and you can certainly do that with the magma - it does have 2 holes, 1 for each coil, or you can just make one coil in the middle.

I have to also mention the veritas, because so far I'm really liking the taste although I suppose that's more to do with the coil; I got my veritas right now with a 2mm internal diameter 28 gauge 1.2 ohm coil, and my magma has a 1.7 ohm ... about 3mm coil, 28 gauge, and my veritas has been tasting better;

I kinda growled at the veritas at first because when I got my rda's I put them to soak overnight, and it turns out the screws that came with the veritas are not stainless steel and immediately started rusting in the water.

Here's the veritas I got; its the 30mm one.

Now, like the magma, it's got the airhole/s above the drip well.
It's only got 1 airhole, which for me is an advantage for simplicity of build as well as laying it down to rest without leaking.
Now the magma uses a plastic block down in the drip well to seal the centerpin, but the veritas design brings the center pin up, integrates it with the airflow, and sacrifices have the deck / dripwell area in what I suppose ends up being a heat sink, resulting perhaps in a cooler vape; so far that's my theory of why my veritas seems to be tasting distinctly better if it isn't just the coil itself.

It's a fascinating design.
