qp Design x GM mods Lethal RTA LE ~ A review by @AngeNZ

3889inst.jpg


I'm not a reviewer and I actually purchased this, but as there's so little information on this amazing RTA I want to share my thoughts. So please expect to see the odd wonky coil!

downloadfile.jpg


Introduction:


This is a 25mm, short (40.6mm) single coil, bottom airflow, flavour banger. It has a capacity of 3ml with the straight glass, and 4ml with the bubble glass.

You have 3 options with the airflow plates. Wide-open DL with no plate, slightly restricted DL with the double barrel (2.5mm id x 2), or a smoother, tighter restricted DL with the honeycomb insert. The dual-sided honeycomb airflow inlets, give each of these options majorly smooth airflow. And you can fine tune it even more using the airflow ring.

The short chimney of this rta has an internal diameter of a generous 8mm 7mm. This adds extra airiness to the airflow options. But it also gives it an RDA style draw.

Filling is easily done with the half turn, click top cap. The fill ports are huge.

For those who love matchymatchy and 810 drip tips - you receive a variety of colour top sections, which screw into the 810 drip tips supplied.

Details:
25mm Diameter
Single coil side mounted deck
Two metal deck airflow inserts:
- Double barre deck airflow insert
- Honeycomb deck airflow insert
Clip top cap for top filling
Adjustable Bottom Honeycomb airflow
3ml glass dimensions: 25mm x 20mm
4ml glass dimensions: 28mm x 20mm

Includes:

Clear 810 drip tip
6 Removable/threaded drip tip top sections

Blue top section
Clear top section

Serial number + authentication card

First Impressions:

I absolutely loved the look of the RTA. I was surprised how short it was, and loved that it had such a short chimney. The airflow options impressed me. I took one look at the honeycomb insert, and went straight for the double barrel plate. It just looked more in line with my preferred draw.

The quality of this RTA also impressed me. The threads were all smooth as butter to use.

The deck however, is what impressed me the most.

Building:

My first build and wick, took only 10 minutes. From winding a coil, through to filling up the tank. This is what it looks like with the honeycomb insert, and a 3mm id GM Coils Alien (this isn't my photo!)

naxxvpe-22112021-0003.jpg


The parallel posts accept my puny ni80 30*2/40 wire with no issues. It's one of the easiest decks to build on.

I first tried a 2.5mm id ni80 30*2/40 8 wrap coil, using the double barrel plate. The wicking ports do seem to be designed for a 3mm id coil. I wicked it, cut the tails level with the o-ring, loosened up the tails and stuffed them in.

My first vape was sublime. This is my first deck with honeycomb airflow inlets, and I'm converted. It had fantastic flavour and the draw was so smooth. I kept this build in for a week, and loved every draw.

I then tried a 3mm id ni80 30*2/40 8 wrap coil:

This is where the Lethal RTA shines. More flavour, more vapour and it's even smoother. Using a gruntier coil than I do - will improves things even more.

My Final Thoughts:

From top to bottom this is a well thought out, and very well designed RTA. If I used one word to describe it, it would be SMOOTH. I love that it's not a finicky wicker, and it is surprisingly not a thirsty tank.

The airflow plates make it appeal to a much wider group of vapers. And the airflow plates can easily be changed with a wicked coil.

The smooth draw, along with the easy to build deck are my favourite features. But what I love the most, is the flavour it produces.

Where to purchase:

The Lethal RTA is currently being sold as a limited edition. I'm hoping they will bring out a more permanent option, but who knows.

Yuppers! Fantastic review Ange:thumb:. I do have a question, is this a loud/noisy RTA compared to others you use, like say a Dvarw DL?

Good point! It's quieter than a Juggerknot Mini, and only a smidge louder than a Dvarw DL. I'd definitely place it in the quieter RTAs box.

    I always thought you guys who do reviews deserved a medal. But after doing only one myself, I now know how much time and effort goes into it. So thank you and your fellow reviewers :thumbs:

    Thanks! It’s nice to talk to someone that understands how much time and effort goes into one. Every one takes several hours.

    Great stuff Ange. I like the way you've set out this review and I trust your conclusions.
    Hopefully there will be many more @AngeNZ reviews to come.
