Easier than going around searching old threads, trying to locate seller websites or hunting down ECF sigs for rba names, I'm hoping some of the more "in the know" folks on here can provide a list of all the good/top of the line RBAs that will more than likely be available this month. Gets kind of old reading about something that sounds great, only to reach their website to find an "Out of Stock" or "Sold out(forever?)" tag next to the item.

Anything is helpful. Y'all are great.

I hated the airy draw at first, but now I can't imagine not having it. I drilled out my DID, as the draw was too stiff. Stiff draw devices now feel like trying to suck ice cream through a straw, and I hate it.

I can agree with WNC. I kept thinking my Vivi novas were flooded or clogged with something. The ZAP draw takes probably a day to get used to, it's definitely not a bad thing.

why would anyone spend $170 for a genesis.. pick up any of the new chinese genesis knock offs from discountvapers or any other vendor for $30 or less..

knowing what i know now about genesis atomizers i'm so dam glad i unloaded all my expensive genesis stuff.. i kept one.. orion 2.1 .. good luck finding one tho..

the zap? well that thing is like a grenade.. when i had it on my provari it was so top heavy it ruined the feel of my provari.. sold it next day...

Nice to know since I am about to venture into the rebuildable arena... I was liking the Spheroid V2 but the price and the fact that you can't get one right now has me looking at others. I want something that doesn't leak so the Steam Machine is out of the question. Cobra looks cool but once again it is expensive and will leak if laid on its side just like all the Genesis rebuildables I have seen!

if you want a cheap starter genesis, go with this AGA Hydra - Rebuildable Atomizer - Stainless
it's the best looking genesis out of china so far...

As for the pricing of "High End" genesis atomizers, yes, the prices are high. BUT, when it comes to the build quality and materials used... the prices are well worth it. The Z-Atties are made of implant grade steel which is an expensive metal to work with. When fixing a ZAP atop a Provari, YES, they make it a bit more weighty, but NOT top heavy. if you're worried about weight with a PV, you shouldn't own a Provari to begin with...

In the end... if you're JUST getting into genesis style rebuildables, start with the cheap ones... If you like the style and it works for you, THEN move up to the Higher End models like the Cobra, Bliss, or Z-Atty.

I also would like to get a rebuildable that i can take with me everywhere without worrying about leaking. I have occasionally laid my DUD on it side and there was no leaks but I got lucky. The spheroid, the Bully A1, the Penelope, are pretty much leak proof. The A1 is actually the cheapest and most readily available. I just can't bring myself to pay $90 plus shipping to get one.

If you're just looking to try out a genesis, I would try the DID clone personally. I've heard good things about the AGA but since I don't own one and have never used one I can't personally suggest it. If you've used a genesis before and it's a high end one you're looking for than I would still suggest either the Cobra, which is a very nice device, and is made out of titanium which will last you forever and you can sell it for about what you paid for it. Or a Z-Atty would be nice also, as mentioned earlier in this thread they are made from surgical grade stainless steel. A DID would be the best bet for a cheaper high end genesis that are readily available. They cost about $100 + shipping.

But again, I would suggest buying a cheaper one if you've never used one. I paid $25 for my DID clone from Discount Vapers and after using it for a while made me decide I was ready to drop the money on some higher end rebuildables, but I would have NEVER paid the prices for one if I had never used one before, because a genesis takes a lot of practice and research to master. I wouldn't call myself a master but i've gotten very good at wrapping coils lately with minimal hot spot issues and finally felt comfortable about buying a few high dollar devices. I can't wait until my orders come in! :D

Looks like the Cobra will have VAT added into the cost soon. If they don't make the Cobra cheaper (so that it'll be the same price with VAT) that makes it the most expensive Genesis doesn't it? I'm glad I got mine before the VAT kicked in.

I haven't even received my Cobra yet, but if I had to suggest an alternative I'd say the DID, DUD (DID clone), or Z-Atty would be alright (all have decent reviews).

Check out this guy's videos to see some hands-on action with some of them:

Aesthetically I like the look of the Orion V2, looks so clean.
