I've used mech mods before, a K1000 and a bolt. Never with a dripper though. Lately I've been using cheap 510 atomizers to drip, but I want something rebuildable. I'm probably gonna buy a nemesis clone off of fasttech or something. The subject never really interested me until I went into a B&M and the owner offered me to try his, practically blew a weather system. :laugh:

I'm not looking to pay over $60 for an atomizer, any suggestions? Thanks in advance. :vapor:

Still to this day I prefer my Trident V2 clone over all my other drippers. It has adjustable airflow and single coil/dual coil options (I don't like going over dual)... It also has fully removable screws on the post and the slots in the post that you put your resistance wire into are completely open so you can use any type easily (32ga, 24ga, ribbon, etc...) :2c:

Yea I agree with going with a nice IGO-4 which can have builds from single coil all the way up to a quad coil. Fully removable screws with big holes in the post for a vast amount of diff kanthal sizes. Its small and compact, and comes with a nice drip tip for like 12 bucks. I also have a magma that was WAY higher priced than the IGO and I would rate the vapor production about the same. I dont like giant RDAs that make my MOD look like a huge VV device with a tank lol. My Sentinel m16 with an 18650 battery and the IGO is very small and compact. Not to mention cumulus clouds all day =).

+1 for the Stillaire, or a Quasar.

I def like the looks of the Stillaire better, but I like that the Quasar has three cut-outs in the top cap for single or dual coil set-up. I went with the Quasar for that reason, but if you'll lean more towards dual coils then either will be a GREAT choice, no drilling necessary!!

I was looking at the IGO-W for a while until I realized that you had to drill the holes out, multiple youtube sources say it's a pain to do without the proper hulk-strength drillbits. I think I'm gonna go with the IGO-M in gold for the type of nemesis I'm gonna get, it should look pretty fly. Thanks for all the replies. :)

It's really not difficult at all to drill out an Igo W cap. There are already holes there. You're just enlarging them. The stainless top cap isn't very thick. A couple minutes, tops.

Don't be scared to drill holes in your cap, the reason for this is Airflow, a very important part of dripping, you can have any bnm drill it for you but the lower in ohms you go the bigger the holes you want, also remember that the bigger the holes the less flavor your going to get. If you want flavor you want a hole (s) that is just big enough for the draw you like, I'm saying this, additionally because the afc on lots of attys sucks and in many cases I prefer a hole I drilled to the flow available by a stock afc.

Fera, I bought the IGO-4 for single coil setups (which are great as they heat up VERY quickly), and then bought a clear cap for it with dual holes already in it and it came with a wide boar mouth piece all for only like 3 bucks. And if you want to open those holes up to a crazier very open air flow, its cake to do because its plastic. I use both the S/S one that came with it for singles, and the plastic for doubles. Its VERY nice, and I also have a Magma, and an Odyssey, which are both higher level RDA's, and honestly, I get just as big of clouds out of the Igo-4 with the plastic cap with dual air holes. All at a total of 12.99 + 3.00 lol. Then its like you almost have two style RDAs cuz the plastic cap and tip give it a completely different look and size. Way to go in my opinion cuz you have both options and don't have to commit to either single or double.

If you want one that has rotating threaded adjustable ring with holes that you can close off one side and just use a single or dual air flow, with 3 different hole size options on each size, go with the Magma made by Paradigm. Very nice RDA. I have a link you can get one for like 30 bucks if interested. Still would say go the first route though.

The Igos are just plain & simple good drippers. I loved the tridents but the clones just don't hold up as well. One trident did last me 8 months before the positive & negative post chipped off. I can't really complain about that, got my money's but the positive post on my trident V2 that I've only had for a few weeks broke last night. My Igos have been trouble free (hope I don't jinx myself) so today I ordered a Igo-W4 and the new Igo W7. There is a 20% sale @Vapor CO so I got them both for $25.89 and free shipping.

I wanted to add that I just love my plastic caps & tip. I bought 3 when I ordered and like them better than any cap (even the cap that came with my IGO T). The airflow is perfect for me.
