The rabbit is a good one really easy to build on. It is similar to the Drop but from what I have heard the drop is a better atty all around. I have A DR24 and a DRSQ and love both. Everybody says Drop is a great rda and I don't think you can go wrong with it. I am headed the other way.lol after 4 years of RDAs i am ready to try out an rta.

I'm curious about your terminology.
RBA (rebuildable atomizer) to my understanding is a "catch all" term meaning any atomizer that is rebuildable (both drippers and tanks). RDA (rebuildable drip atomizer) and RTA (rebuildable tank atomizer) are more specific terms to describe the RBA that you are using.
Baditude
I might have the terminology wrong, I’m still a novice at vaping stuff, but I call them as I bought them. The rba for my Prince, and rta for my Kylin, Blitzen and Bolt, or have I got things mixed up?

RDA - not a tank with a juice glass reservoir; strictly a dripper. E-liquid is dripped on cotton or silica wick; only a few drops of liquid is used for a few puffs, then more drops applied to continue vaping. Relatively shallow juice well so only 6 - 10 drops of e-liquid can be used at a time. Extremely easy to change up your flavor choice on a whim. Most simple and easiest first exposure to rebuildables.
RTA - an RBA which always has a glass reservoir for the juice, not generally a dripper.
Some clearomizer tank manufacturers offer an optional RBA base to allow you to convert your clearomizer (factory-made, drop in coil heads) into a rebuildable tank atomizer. Your Prince clearomizer appears to fit into this category.
To round out the other types of RTA's are the Genesis-style RTA's. Most modern day RTA's have the tank on top of the coils, where the Genny's have the tank portion below the coils. This tank is position dependent, it may leak if not held upright; requires using the "Genny Tilt" for adequate wicking as you are fighting gravity with this design.

Here my confusion lies, I bought a Prince rba, and the above rta’s yet they’re the same thing, an rba also means an rta, is that correct?
As I said, "RBA" is a "catch all" term for all things rebuildable.
Technically speaking, when you convert a clearomizer into a rebuildable tank, it specifically becomes a RTA, but it is still considered a form of RBA.
Exactly. That's why I included images with my explanations. It doesn't help the confusion if China manufacturers use the wrong terminology, too.
Yep....
Hey, watch me end this post without a smart allecky comment about Chinese terminology! It won't be easy....but I will succeed!
I did it! I shall leward myself with a good runch!
I'll do the same. Since the poster has a SMOK Prince tank...

If that's an actual member of the smok team, I have this irrational desire to hug him! Okay, it's probably the steroids, but he looks totally huggable, like certain dogs are irresistible to pet! If it's not a smok employee I want to hug him even more!
That picture does smok a WHOLE ton of favor in my book, but I'm sure it's some random dude, also, he looks like he'd be a lot less smiley if suddenly attacked and hugged by a middle aged Caucasian woman. For all I know, it's probably a sin in China!
Please, pay this entire post no mind. Although I will say, I tend to mix up the letters myself, and comparing an RBA to an RTA is meaningless. I did mean RDA, actually, but did not use the nomenclature correctly at all, and I'll bet I've done before.
But, thanks to your pic, I have a feeling I will remember now.
