merlin 22, finally coming soon?

[drugarth]

Saw on Augvape that they updated the pictures of the Merlin 22, hopefully that means it will come soon.
Seems a MTL with both bottom and side airflow, both which can be adjusted with screws and/or restrictors.....I kind of like it:

I don't see how it would have juice flow control, so it is probably either bottom fill or flood-fill like the Berserker.

Now that I own the OBS Engine Nano and the Serpent SMM I'm not sure if I would go back to a tank with bottom AF. Personally I think this has been one of the best innovations brought to RTA's.

While the OBS deck still seems weird to me, small, light and uncomplicated the design for wicking and and AF it removes several of the issues many other tanks have when it comes to filling a tank and flooding.

I have three of each and they have been heavy used because of there simplicity.

So I would have to agree with mrjohs this tank would be something I would pass on too.

I was using mostly Kanger subtank mini bottom fill, Ego one Mega bottom fill. Then got the Coppervape skyline clone and a OBS nano.... Use those most of the time but still use the Ego a lot too.

This is one well built tasty tank and works fine with MTL with the correct airflow piece in place. The build quality is great. This is 22mm. Don't know what the merlin costs but this is inexpensive

have to call you on the beserker. I am on three rebuilds and 20 refills with no flooding..

Top refill ?

Yeah, some have reported success with top filling, although many has not. Among other things that would depend on juice viscosity, density of wicking, atmospheric pressure and room temperature. That is probably why the jury is out and will stay out.

One thing is for sure, though, it is a crapshoot.

not sure it's a crapshoot really. If you get a decent build in there it should be fine. I close the af, top off, fill as quickll as possible, as you put the top cap on, turn upside down as soon as it seals, leave it for a few secs, open af and turn it back up the right way..works every time!

Well it looks nothing like what the original renderings for this v2 were supposed to be. I'm less than overwhelmed. I like and still use my Merlins, but this is not at the top of my "to get" list.

Jfc isn't needed.

It's a partially raised deck with huge juice slots where the juice comes into huge ports and raises up. A proper wick job will do I reckon.

So this is for both dl and mtl eh? I kind of dig it.
