I have an Igo-L on top of a sigelei #13a with tweaks, AW batts, and the coils I like to build are around .8Ω, ss mesh on 3mm silica. As you'd imagine, I get huge, tasty (and fun) clouds. I'm totally happy with it because I only use it at home. Got other stuff for work and out and about.

I wanna buy at least one more rba since I have #19 on the way. If I stick with drippers, I could buy three of them as opposed to one genny. I don't want an AGA, but the AGI looks good. Anyone know if it leaks in dripper mode? If not, I could get that try both. I don't know, I'm perplexed. Opinions?

im kinda confused on the agi design with the spring in the post, waiting for some reviews. i would get a cheaper one first myself, to many parts laying around when in dripper mode.

but i use both regularly and see almost no difference taste wise now that i have my set ups down pat, but enjoy them for different reasons.

the aga or rsst are good starter kits but if your happy then stick with it till the itch hits. just got the smok octopus for a beater and am seriously surprised at the vapor production.

I was watching some "Todd" pre-review last night on the AGI, and he was saying it leaks a bit. He was gonna put some vaseline in the "plug" screw holes to help the screws be better pluggers. IDK. Here, lookie . . . .

~10min. mark I guess

I guess it boils down to what the other stuff is that you're using for work and out and about. If those devices are cartos, carto tanks and/or clearomizers adopted for ease of use while out and about, but you're digging the ss wick experience much more (can't blame you), there's no need to put up with those devices until you get home. This is where a genny would shine for you, IMO. Once it's set up good and filled, it's hassle free vaping all day long, basically taking the dripping out of the equation but still giving you vaping excellence on par with the RDAs... if not better, some might argue. A well rounded RBA/RDA arsenal is never a bad thing. So here's one vote for getting a genny.

For out and about, I have a VMOD XL with Cisco 306 & 510 attys. I'm really happy with it. I've found I don't like cartos, carto tanks or clearos. Just gave my old eGo-C kit to a noob yesterday. I only like attys. For a second flavor, and those first harsh morning hits, I keep an iClear 30 on an eGo batt. I know, I know, but it's not too bad for it's purpose.

Maybe I will pick up a genny because I will probably like it. Most rba guys seem to, and I can always buy as many $10 drippers as I want down the road. I'd like to try out the Fatty v2 clone, the Phoenix v4 ... etc.

I'd write more but toddler is getting restless ...

Bottom feeder with Cisco 306/510. Excellent choice for out and about. I can see now you're not "putting up" with an inferior vape while out and about.

Thanks! I got a full kit for $50 off on a weekend sale. At that price, and with the performance, I can't go wrong. I keep an eGo zipper case in my bag for work with a spare bottle of juice, an eGo batt, and a few extra attys and an emergency carto just in case. I got it locked down, lol.

I can't wait for the clone because it'll be $15, not $75 like the original. What can I say? I ain't a baller, so I think over what I buy very carefully and now have some pretty cool stuff because of it.

I would not mind getting the clone over the original.This is what i hate about new devices that come out,if you blink you can't get it until months after.

The shops here in SoCal get the Nimbus on a regular basis now. Trident has come in to a few shops, but it's expensive. Wholesale on the Trident is $63 before shipping and I think retail in the U.S. is about $105 or more.
