RDA Origen Little 16mm Clone

[DancingHeretik]

I've been following this thread and already put this in my cart at FT. Then I was reading on another thread that it's really more for DL rather than MTL.

So, how does it compare to a kayfun? I don't want DL or even semi-DL.

Yes DH it will work for MTL. If I remember right on the Kayfun, I would say the Kayfun is more restrictive than the Origen Little. A little more airy than a Sophia or Fogger Mini, but not much, but that is with dual small air holes. If I did a single coil and one small air hole, it would be a little more restrictive. I am running the same build I started with right now, .86Ω at 15 watts doing nice MTL draws, a little more airy than I like for MTL, but if I really wanted it for MTL I would do a single coil, and use 1 hole not 2. It is geared more for DL, but will work for MTL also. YMMV

If you use one hole, can you close down on that one hole any, like to maybe a half of a hole?

Didn't think of that, just tried it and yes you can. Just checked the draw, can't really vape my current build with 1/2 a hole, but it was a tight draw.

Good. Then it should be adjustable enough to satisfy most any mtl'r.

Dang it, if Focal doesn't get the PP straightened out, I'm gonna have to go to FT to get one. I really want to go to Focal so I can get the beauty ring also.

They are loosing business by not having PayPal for so long, hopefully this week.

On th smallest holes it compares to a Cyclone with the original top cap...not the AFC cap... Very much tootle puffer range...

 

[oplholik]

Sounds about right for me. Thanks.

You can very easily make this as tight as a stock Reomizer 2 or Cyclone. I have done so myself with a single 1.5 ohm coil and the flavor is very good. Not really better than a Reomizer 2 or Cyclone, but very much on par. This is an incredibly versatile little atomizer!

This review convinced me it was the ultimate BF Atty for flavor .

Flavour is insane, and it should be with such a small vapor chamber. The amazing part is you can easily fit a 5-6 wrap 2.5mm coil on either side of the deck. We thought it would be tight as hell to build, but it isn’t at all. Really it’s very simple. Norbert has designed a very ingenious post, each post has 4 holes that are cross drilled (creates an X) and this allows you to place your wire leads in easily and in a cross formation that clamps down extremely well.

The flavour is clean and very crisp, its all about the condensed height and chamber. Wicking is easy for duals and for a single you need to run your wicks through the center and over to the empty side of the deck for best performance. Another surprise is the amount of juice you can drip, easily taking 10 drops and lasting enough time to get 3-5 long glorious hauls. But squonking with the BF (bottom feed) pin is where this atty flourishes. Being able to keep those wicks saturated with ease makes this vape experience almost pure nirvana.

I have the authentic currently built with a 1 ohm single coil pushed to the side and a single airflow hole (the smallest). Very good MTL draw and very good flavor.

It really is small though , i was convinced it had to be a keychain charm of some sort when i first saw it.

Well, guess I'm not gonna get an email response from Focal concerning PP for payment. Just have to go to FT for the Origin Littles, and do w/o the beauty ring.
I wonder just how much not having PP is costing them in sales.

 

[DJLEC]

I've got both the authentic Origen little and the tank and they both have the circular v+

I have a circular and an oblong. Circular has a higher number on the bottom. I do not have them out now but I recall it was 550 approximately, and the oblong was 250 approximately.

Both have the identical Matte finish on the deck.

I finally got tired of waiting,and i refuse to use my cc there,so i ended up using a prepaid card to make the order.I already have the rda,but like you,wanted the beauty ring,plus they are the only place i can find that sells replacement bases for the Griffin,so i was kinda stuck on ordering from them.

 

[oplholik]

Hadn't thought of the pre paid, never used one. I'll think about that, but seems like a lot of trouble just to get the beauty ring tho.

Yeah,if all i was getting was that ring,i wouldn't of worried about it,but i have a Griffin that needs a new base,plus a few extra bases as spares,so my order was close to $25,so for me,it was worth it to go ahead with it.
The prepaid cards are pretty easy to use though,as long as they have the Visa or Mastercard logo on them,they can be used anywhere those 2 are accepted usually.If you grab one at a store like Walmart,etc.,you can load the money on it right at the cash register,some of them you can transfer money onto from your bank account too.

 

[oplholik]

Well, I did check on the cards on Walmarts website, there were two Visas, and both can only be used inside the US, or so it says.

@oplholik

On the beauty ring, why not just get one from Captivape or JMK?

I have a Greendot P/P debit Mastercard that I can use on any website I go on that accepts Mastercard. I even have it linked through PP so I can use it paying with PP also.
