Make up my mind!

[Snugglepooter]

Howdy Genny folks! I am going to step into the world of stainless wicks and have two contenders:

The AGA T3 or an Origen V2 clone from DesertVapes.

Which one and why?

Thanks in advance!

 

[Shawn Hoefer]

Of the two you've listed, get the Origen. However, before purchasing, I would suggest you take look at a simpler genny such as the Kraken.

 

[Vaslovik]

I have an Origenny, and found it to be a leaky mess. I stopped using it. I also have two authentic Krakens. I stopped using those too. What I use now are my DID's on Poldiacs. After nearly 3 years and 14 gennies (to say nothing of numerous clone mechs) I have settled on this. In my experience nothing vapes better. I really wish I'd just gone with MMV to start with. It would have saved me a lot of money and hassle.

 

[Snugglepooter]

Is there a fear factor in starting with the Origenny? I have experimented with mesh wicking to shorten my learning curve, and have managed to use mesh in a tiny A7...

I've been building for a couple years now and don't mind a challenge!

Thanks Vaslovik, but the DID is out of my budget.

Thanks Vaslovik, but the DID is out of my budget.

Gosh, I'm sorry to hear that. Is that Origenny V2 clone you mentioned the Tobeco clone? If so that's the one I have and it really leaked a lot. You may wish to consider the RSST. I used them for a couple years and they served me very well indeed. I got my pyrex RSST for ten bucks.

Are we talking about the little dripper Origen v2? I just got a Tobeco one a few days ago and really like it.

This? ORIGIN GENESIS V3 REBUILDABLE ATOMIZER TOBECO CLONE **** IN STOCK NOW ****

Oh, never mind, that's a v3 Well, I feel like an idiot, lol! At any rate with code 50CLEARANCE it was half price and free shipping so I decided to try it . Check that clearance page and use the code for good deals.

Its a nice little juice tester

The one I have is the genny, and I had real problems with the sections sealing. The O rings don't seem to keep it from leaking, and I'd leave it standing on a mech, and come back to find a pool of juice at the bottom of the mech, and the tank empty. Not good.

 

[Snugglepooter]

Welp, you don't look like an idiot. You look like a bird... Any leaks with the Tobeco?

Vaslovik, I may have to consider the RSST or RSST-C. I've heard they are solid.

I have some unknown clone of the v2. The one with the plastic tank, right? No leaks on mine so far. I think it came from Focalecig, but it was given to me so I'm not sure.

No leaks with that one I just linked. I don't see how it could really (aside from laying it down). It has wells like a dripper. I thought it was cute and I seem to remember people saying it had good flavor so I bought it. I went there to get another v1 Lemo, and for $22 got both . So far I agree it has good flavor . No regrets on the purchase.

You know, I used them for two years, and I have nothing bad to say about the RSST. I still have 4 of them and I keep them around in case I run into a new genny vaper who needs something to start on. They served me very well for two years. Everything else being equal it's a nicely designed little genny with nice features at a good price. As with any genny, the results depends on your build.

 

[Snugglepooter]

Roxy, you linked the drippy, not the genny...

 

[AzPlumber]

For your first Genny I would also suggest a RSST

I couldn't agree more. I started with an AGA-T2 and regretted it. Then I got an RSST, and the clouds parted, I could finally see...

 

[roxynoodle]

Roxy, you linked the drippy, not the genny...

I know. That's why I said I was an idiot for mixing them up

For that matter, do you all consider that a dripper or a genny? I find the Origens confusing.

I have one of these also but the FC clone. I think this is what you were actually asking about?

ORIGIN V2 GENESIS STYLE RBA RTA REBUILDABLE TANK ATOMIZER TOBECO CLONE

 

[AzPlumber]

don't like rda and rba... too much hassle

Using a Genny with SS wick and unflavored liquid I can vape for months before changing out a coil and the wick will last for many coils. That's about as hassle free as it gets.

Given that certain people (whom I will decline to characterize) indulge in building gennies as drippers I can understand your confusion. In general if it has a wick hole and a center post it's a genny. That will not stop some from stuffing it full of cotton.

To me that little v3 thing is a dripper, yet they still call it a genny. I did build it with rayon. I also built it with vertical coils, but at some point I'll try horizontals just...because

There are a whole slew of new attys that could be gennys, drippers or RTAs. I have a few now and I do like the ones I have. I'm guessing you wouldn't as they aren't really traditional gennys. I already know you hate the Urba, although I like it a lot. I also love the Nectar and this Haze Dripper Tank I got from Focusecig. But, I like a variety of attys. If I was a straight up genny person maybe I wouldn't be impressed either.

 

[Vaslovik]

Well you shouldn't listen to me, I'm a die-hard old school genny purist. Vape your own way and I'll try to keep my mouth shut about it

 

[Snugglepooter]

I'm looking for the old-skool, straight-up steel genny experience that Vaslovik refers to. Hell, I can wick a cat with rayon...

Roxy, the V3 is considered a dripper, as the well isn't really, well, a tank. The V2 is a genny (as I see it) due to the reservoir and the vertically oriented terminals.

 

[Snugglepooter]

And although I'm terminally oriented to the vertical, we're not allowed to talk about that on this forum...
