lurker looking for info on mods rda's

[talonkylor]

So far I have been thinking of getting somewhat of these items but I am not sure.

Keep in mind I am very open to suggestions.


First off
Kanthal 26 or 24?

batteries I was thinking of going for the 35amp ones.

I can get an ohm reader for 20
A charger for 18-26


Here some the problem. Mods and rda's

Mods: nemesis, infinite stingrays,
Tree of life, and chi u v2

rda's : I was thinking the tobh, patriot,
stellar, Helios, trident .

Pro's and con's of each of these would be totally helpful.


Thank you very much in advance for the help.

Also a little history I went from vision passthroughs and protank mini 2 to my current tank setups which are the aspire bdc and nautilus on the mvp 2

I'll only comment on your choice of batteries. The purple Efest 18650 2500mah 35 amp battery is really a re-branded LG18650HE2 2500mah battery which LG claims is only a 20 amp continuous discharge rate. IMHO, the Sony us18650VTC5 2600 mah 30 amp battery is better.

I agree ^^, for an RDA i always like to recommend the Tugboat.. The holes in the sides are perfect with plenty of airflow, the holes in the post are nice and large, you can do dual 22G coils pretty easily. It also has a derlin insulated drip tip that takes alot to get hot, buttery smooth threads and it comes in alot of colors The Tugboat Atty - In Stock - $85 all those mods are pretty good, just go with what asthetic piece you like better, also check out reviews on them. i personally prefer 24G wire just keep in mind it tends to be alot hotter then with tanks that you may be used to. I would pick up a spool of 28, 26 and 24G to test out all of them and see what you preffer. The rest you seem to be good to go, just be safe with the mechanical mods.

There's so many good rda's available it's hard to go wrong. I assume you are new to building so I would agree with you on the TOBH and Patriot. They're both easy builds and deliver great vape. If I had to pick I would go with the TOBH. Infinite has a great clone which you can find for around 20 bucks.

Totally agree with Bad regarding the battery. The only other battery I might recommend, if your builds are over .75, is the Orbtronic SX22. Both are available at the link below.

Mods are just getting what you like. The only mod that I find to be a PITA is the Nemi, the bottom button will drive you crazy. 101 Vapes has a Buffalo mod for 33 bucks made by Infinite that looks real nice. I have the original Buffalo and love it.

GL on your adventure.

Well, this would certainly explain why the Purple Efest nearly went into thermal runaway during testing when it was pushed to 20A ...*sigh* This is why Efest cannot be trusted.

I will keep checking this thread daily to see what else is said. And once again thank you for all the info so far.

I would suggest using 28G if you are new to building. Then from there, you can determine if you want a thicker or thinner wire. I myself prefer 26G for drippers and 28 for kayfuns. A good atty to start off with would be an igo w because of its simplicity and price. I'm using an Origen dripper and i love it!

 

[danca90]

Are you building coils on your tanks yet? If not, I'd start with that. A good ego shouldn't fire a bad coil.

 

[Neunerball]

I have both, the TOBH and the Trident V2. I'd recommend the Trident as a first RDA. With it you can build either a single or a double coil. The TOBH is designed for double coils.
