new to vaping, thinking about an RDA

[R2sojr]

Since buying an rda ive cleaned all my tanks and boxed them up. The flavor and hit from an rda is honestly what I was serching for since I started to vape.

Actually, I don't agree. About the sub tanks vs RDA preference. I know I'm not the only one, who prefers the flavor of an RDA over tanks. For me the building is worth it, because I can customize my vape anyway I like, and not depend on anything pre-built. Oh, and did I mention the FLAVOR? I only use my sub tanks (Herakles and ijust 2) when out and about, and dripping could get cumbersome.

It's all personal preference in my opinion. I agree the flavor is richer in the RDA, but with a 45 min drive to work in rush hour traffic where its stop and go, I prefer my tank. The tank is just easier and much more convenient. (And for anyone who is reading this and learning, don't misunderstand that RDA's are superior - its just preference). I'm not trying to push him to tank in my reply above, I gave him my honest opinion in finding the right RDA :] Actually, all day today I've been using mostly my RDA. But then again, I didn't go anywhere, I was just being a bum on my day off hehe.

I agree but for me personally I can take 3-4 hits off an rda and be satisfied. Never found that with a tank. Also keeps me from suckin down juice aswell. My fav juice is $22 a bottle for 30ml so it can get expensive

I did mention using my tanks, mostly, for out and about. But RDAs are my primary. And with a little research, you can find one that doesn't leak (Hastur *knocks on wood*). And I didn't say RDAs were "better" or superior, just what I prefer.The OP wanted to know about RDAs. You said " But I agree with everyone else, with the new sub ohm tanks, you won't want to use your RDA as a primary as it can get a bit tedious with the rebuilding and easy leakage" With the exception of a sarcastic post, no one said any such thing, in this thread. I'm not picking a fight, but stay on topic please...thank you.

Um did you read the rest of my post where I gave him some tips to help him find a good RDA? I didn't realize it was a TL;DR, sorry. My post wasn't sarcastic and stayed on topic.. It's ok, last time 'm posting on this forum, too common people on the internet react like that.

Thanks for all the replies every one!
I think I'm going to go with the velocity clone, and the sigelli 150, and like some people said I probably still will use my tank more frequently then the rda, I'll probably be using the rda at home and tank at work and school.

Good choice. You wont be dissapointed I promise.

You don't "need" an RBA to drip juices, especially if you don't want to or aren't ready to make your own coils.

You can get a 510 drip atomizer (a factory made, disposable atomizer attachment), or a Nano clearomizer.

However, if you're ready to step up your game and make your own coils, this guide should be helpful:

I watched tons of YouTube videos before I got me first rda. I never really enjoyed it... Til yesterday. Apparently I had been getting too fancy with it. Double coils, fancy wicking, etc.. I switched to a simply single coil system with a basic wick and WOW! What a difference! Moral of the story? Do your homework, but don't dive in head first. Start small and work your way up.
