I'm looking for a good quality inexpensive bottom-fed rda to use with a mech squonker. I'm not really a cloud chaser, but a dual coil deck would be nice to have. I'm new to the squonking game, so bear that in mind. (Yes, I already have the mod. Just need a good topper for it). Clones are fine by me. Thanks in advance for any suggestions y'all might have for me!

IMO the velocity needs more power than a single battery mech can supply.

What's your definition of inexpensive? Lots of options on the REO site, but they're in the $30-$50 range. My personal favorite is the "reomizer 8.0" which is a derringer, great for single or dual coil.

BTW - Many 2 Post RDA's can be Converted into a BF RDA by buying a BF Feed Pin from someone like Fat Daddy Vapes (FDV).

The FDV Pins usually do need some Filing so the work. But it is all that hard if you have a Little experience working with you Hands/Basic Tools.

zoiD nailed it. I'd pick up a NarDa clone and a 3mm pin from Fat Daddy vapes. I have many BF RDA's and the NarDa is by far my favorite. It produces great flavor and vapor, is pretty easy to build and the price is right.

The Fatty Daddy pin needs to be shaved a bit but I knocked it out with my Dremel in about 5 minutes.

For a Single Coil RDA, and the hit I am Looking for, the NarDa with a 26ga NiChrome .6 Ohm build is Very Hard to Beat.

With that NarDA you still have to get the bf pin somewhere else, and probably cut it down some as well, right?

Yes.

I have heard of a Company that can do it for you. And even sells some Non-Bottom Feeding RDA that it has converted. But I can't think of the Name of the Company?

You mean Catfish Atty Mods? I know there is a thread here on ECF, I don't know if he has a site or anything else, or how much he charges.

I modded one of my derringers myself, by cutting grooves in the insulator, then I bought an RM2 and RM8 from REOS mods.

That doesn't sound like the Company I was thinking of. And the one I'm thinking of Does have a regular Website.

Like I said, you can send this Company Many types of RDA's. And they will do the Mod for you. Or you can buy an Already converted RDA from them. Just can't remember the Name?

Lessifer, Fat Daddy sells the 3mm pin that just needs some slight modifications but screw right into the NarDA. You get 3 pins for $4

The NarDA takes the 3mm
