Please help me find a reliable setup!

Budget authentics for m2l vapors:

UD Aga t5 for $10 at Triangle Vape. Very nicely machined and made with easy build. Its tall and kind of ugly, but its really not taller than a kayfun 4; it just appears to be. You really can't go wrong with this one . It even came prebuilt I think.

Original Lemo or Lemo Drop. You can find them for $20 now. They have a reputation as a cloud chucker, but the air can be closed all the way down to zero so its not true. Nice big build deck. Fantastic flavor. I've been using mine for 10 months and will never sell it.

hcigar HC Plus. $20 from Froginfog. You can't buy it in the US, which is a shame because this is an extremely well made RTA. Wicking is not quite as easy as the other two, but I would help you. There don't seem to be any videos out there in English, or that you can see easily what the builder is doing (I've checked). One or two airholes.

Focloud. $30 from VaporDNA. Build quality is not the best, but the flavor sure is. Single or dual coil, one or two airholes.

As for clones: kayfun 4, Taifun GT2 (very easy build and fill), Ataman II (just got this clone, and I have an authentic), Eviva-t clone is also now available (I have 2 authentics and love this atty), Erlkonigin.

All excellent suggestions, I've owned several of them. For simplicity and reliability I'll second the Lemo or Lemo drop. I'll also throw in the Billow V2. Slightly more complicated due to being dual coils, but well worth the learning curve once you have mastered general building. I started learning how to build on a simple Plume Veil clone dripper that I picked up from MFS for like 20 bucks.

OK. I can repeat: think about OP question.

And your advice was?.........

OK. I can repeat: think about OP question.

One thing I have to hand to the REO though is its one of the safest mechs to short. The spring will collapse and any gasses emitted go out the squonk hole so it should never actually explode. If you're going to have a mech accident, this is the one you want to do it on . Its a rather newb friendly design. It was actually my first rebuildable and mod.

I'm hit and miss with BVC coils on my Aspire ET-S and 30w istick. Now I'm at work, and each hit completely fills the space between the battery and tank. Between last night and today, I've ...... away 10ml of juice and now I need to hit the store for a pack of smokes because I'm out of juice. Not that it matters, the coil can't hold anything.

Also, I've disassembled and re-assembled the tank with this coil, 4 times already, completely cleaning .

I also understand that nobody accommodates mouth to lung vapors', well except for kayfun at $200+ for a tank.

this is what happens when you leave product design to a community of neck-beards who are only interested in giant clouds. Unfortunately, this isn't play time, and some folks try to rely on these products to make positive changes in their lives.

If you're not opposed to clones (and you shouldn't be if you're trying to save money), and you're willing to build your own coils, and want a Kayfun V4 mouth to lung experience I would recommend a Tobeco Kayfun V4 clone. I have two of them and they have given me no problems at all besides changing out the O-rings on the first one after constant daily vaping for 4-5 months.

I bought a lemo drop and a nautilus. I tried the lemo drop first, and I really like it. I kinda wish I didn't buy the nautilus and instead got another lemo drop, because I think I will like the rebuildable aspect. I was also expecting to use my current BVC coils, but they have different ones for the nautilus.

I wonder if I should purchase a backup lemo drop?

Thanks for all the help!

And remember where ever you can buy smokes you can buy an ecig to get you through, every gas station, corner store and local vape shop sells them. I am always amazed when I hear people say they had to/were going to buy smokes because of problems with their ecig when they can always just pick up another ecig instead.
