Orchid v4

[Lilag]

Ok so I am in a big debate I can't choose between a nautilus and now an orchid v4 I have an mvp2.0 so would a orchid work ok

 

[roxynoodle]

The Orchid might work ok with 32g wire, but a dual coil rta is a bit much for an mvp. However, there are many single coil rtas that would run well on it (kayfun, taifun, Erlkonigin, Lemo, SquapeR, Rosev2). Any particular reason the Orchid appelas to you? Clouds? Flavor?

Tinkering is what appeals to me that and the money saving fact I want a tank that I can fill and build I like flavor I'm not really a cloud chaser I'm a flavor chaser lol

Ok, well, in my opinion, there are better RTAs for flavor . And they will work better with your mvp.

If you really like to tinker, the Rosev2 is phenomenal for flavor.

Easier and also great flavor attys: Lemo, kayfun, Taifun, SquapeR and Erlkonigin.

Watch review/build videos and that can help you narrow your choice

My orchid does not work for spit on my MVP. Getting dual coils to a resistance that will fire on an MVP is a task that is pretty much beyond my limited coil building ability. Even if I was able to get it high enough resistance-wise to fire, I had to crank it all the way up and it still didn't have enough booty in its little square pants to really get anything of quality out of the orchid. (I'm not into clouds either, I'm looking for flavor, and the MVP didn't seem to be able to get the dual coils hot enough to vape enough juice for decent flavor) I didn't really experience a satisfying vape with that RTA until I used it on my iStick at 17w.

YMMV, but I wouldn't recommend it for an MVP.

Decent Kayfun starter tank:

$14.39 Kayfun Lite Styled Rebuildable Atomizer (4.5mL) - clear tank section at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping

Just swap out the tip for a wide bore and have fun.

I have several and build between 1.4ohm - 1.7ohm

Are the clones good

 

[roxynoodle]

Depends. Some are excellent, some are at least decent and some are horrible.

Once you chose which RTA you want, I'm sure people will advise you on which clones are fine, and which should be avoided. There are threads here on pretty much everything and worth reading.

Ok so I'm stuck between 2 of them the rosev2 and kayfun lite

 

[roxynoodle]

Most of the Rosev2 clones are fine. Some recently have reported trouble with the Tobeco (base won't come off). I recommend the Pallas clone from Focalecig. They have it in the US warehouse, so order from there to get it quickly.

For a kayfun lite, the EHPro clone. Get the 2 airhole v2 one. Fluidvapes has a good price.

How about an orchid v4 on a mech mod?

 

[Wolfenstark]

Have an ehpro kayfun light + v2 clone and its good but very tight ( air hole screws removed) when compared to a lemo.

A tobeco plume veil clone and its good except the deck is very hard to get out and there isn't much thread on top of the screw heads to get purchase on with s screwdriver and when putting the wire through the holes and tightening down the difference between getting a good hold and scrunching the wires is very minimal , Once i can get a build secure its been good.

A lemo drop which is brilliant.

Im looking into an orchid v6 which brings me to looking in here.

I run my v3 on a mech, but also have a 0.4 ohm build in it.

FT Orchids are a more economical buy than the Kayfun. Even though the Orchid is set up for dual coils, you can run it single-coil. I do, on my Vamo. It is a real deal for the price.

Block the unused airhole with a bit of cotton. Split both ends of the wick. Thread 1/2 for each end between the posts to catch the juice coming up through the channels on the unused side.
