You could also get an Athena which is basically same box just not all black and about 1/2 the price... Since you are loading up :)

Thanks Toolman. That's the Envy 22 right? I have looked at that one, but the cheapest I could find it was only $10 cheaper than Beyond's.

Send a link my way if you have one.

I also am thinking about picking up the Smoant Knight V1. It has an simaler form factor and a replaceable 18650. I also found just the mod for $40. Since my goal is stocking up for the future, since this has a replaceable battery it may last longer if I can swap the battery. I just hope I like the feel of it as much as I do the Tandem

first "mech" like mod. whenever the coils pop I flinch a little...I guess it takes some time getting used to this. Atto mod with serpent mini. 0.61ohm 24g kanthal build. Battery is Samsung 30Q.

Another option that is similar aesthetically with more safety features (short-circuit protection, low-voltage protection, and overcharge protection) is the iJust2 battery. Might check that out also. The Ego One Mega battery also is very similar.

Thanks alot for this. Will look into it and prob try it out if its cheap.

I believe the atto clone (forgot to mention mine was a clone) is the short-circuit protection, which I assume is to protect you in case you accidentally fire an atty that has a short?

I'm assuming the low-voltage protection is where the mod regulates the battery and doesn't let it drop below a certain voltage and when it does prevents it from firing? What is the cut off for the Ijust2?

[edit] review says cutoff at 3.3v

One thing I really like about the atto is how the battery has the + side on the bottom where the vent hole is, god forbid if something happens at least you know you have some time to react as from what I understand batteries usually vent from the + side.

I have the Atto also and do prefer the iJust2 over it but that's me. The Atto does have that 18350 ability.

Boreas RTA paired with Presa 100W TC
w1aqTwa.jpg

boreas is probably one of my favorite performing tanks. so much flavor and vapor. but dang it if it does leak. i hadn't had a leak for a week or two and last night it leaked when refilling. and the airholes are always wet. do you ever get leaks after refilling? it's getting to the point where im using my moonshot over the boreas due to not wanting juice all over my mod or hands.

Its just how those RDTAs are, kinda like the Bellus. coils positioned right behind airhole, so even if it doesn't leak condensation is really pronounced. I have both bellus and boreas and yea they are wet tanks.

That looks pretty awesome I must say, is that a flat black on the Boreas?

Did it leak on you by the way? It looks a little wet around the air intake holes..
Thanks, I like it too :)

Apparently it's the newer, and updated, release of the Boreas, whereby the paint has a flat/matte black finish and a few knurlings have been added to the top cap.

No it didn't leak on me; however, currently juice likes to pool around the AFC holes. Not sure why it's doing it.

I've haven't had my boreas for long but during my initial build I used to get leaks after refilling too; however, using more cotton on the build deck has solved that issue. As for the little puddles around the AFC holes, I'm not quite sure how to solve it yet. Juice also likes to pool around the base of the DT, for now at least.

Edit: And it's funny that mentioned your moonshot. I've had my moonshot since Friday and the bugger is like a scared little puppy - leaks all over my mod :) I'm playing around with it and hoping I can solve it by just using more cotton.
