Hello,

I am in the market for a new bottom airflow rda as I currently miss it in my collection.
I am considering the Kennedy 24 (a classic with no need to align caps etc), Reload v 1.5 (blue titan looks so stunning, great reviews, like their rta) or the new Armageddon Rapture (looks innovative, but does it have any benefits). As questions about flavor etc are very subjective, I am going to ask about your experience - if you had a chance to try all of them, what do you think is a better product - quality, user experience, and innovation wise?
Or, are there any rumours of a new version of Reload comming out any time soon?.

Thanks.

Govad (genuine) and Trinity (clone). The Govad is velocity style with one *big* hole in the middle of the well. The Lush RDA is also good.

I'm liking velocity styles the most. I can put my coil right in the air flow.

I've also started wicking with rayon. That seems to improve flavor. Finally, I'm noticing that my new Drag ramps up much faster than my SMOK G150. That contributes to flavor I think too.

The Kennedy 24 is one of my favourite RDAs. Flavour & cloudproduction is outstanding and I think it's quite easy to build on.
It has only one flaw: the bottom airflow.
If you overdrip, your mod will be soaked in juice. So it's advisable to remove the top cap when dripping.
The MadDog RDA is a good compromise, because it has bottom airflow (kind of) and is not so easy to overdrip, so you can drip through the driptip, although I think the Kennedy produces better flavour.

Try the geekvape tsunami. Amazing atty. Bottom AF. Been addicted to the thing for a week now. Bottom af is a little annoying to me because if you're not careful and don't paint your coils you can have some leakage.

All in all I love it. Skip the 810 and use the 510. Much better tasting, and more dense vapor.

Agree that the Tsunami is a great value. It's very much like a Kennedy at a fraction of the cost.

The Govad is a leaking machine. I had one and no matter what I did, it leaked. Poor design, IMO. I'm sure that other members will say that I used it wrong, over-dripped...whatever. I've used a LOT of RDAs and none should be that finicky. Life's too short to walk around with juice all over your mod and hands.

The Lush Plus is one of my favorite flavor RDAs - it's simple to build and really vapes nice, but you do have to be careful of over-dripping or it will leak.

Kennedy gets great reviews, personally I've never got along with bottom flows. I tried the Freakshow and the Forge, both leaked like crazy (probably me). I stick with the Twisted Messes, Fog Zombie and the Velocity when I drip. However I am one of the rare hold outs on genny tanks and still mainly use my Kraken.
