That thing is just scary leaky looking!!! I am sure it is one of the newer paint your wick only atty's only. I am guessing this has cloud comp written all over it.

I hadn't even thought of that. To me, it looks like it would be a leaker, maybe, only in the sense of dripping directly down into the tip, but I typically drip into the well. Either which way, this is one that I am going to take on for the team. Someone must do it and I accept the mission. :laugh:

Looking at this build, imagining it wicked with cotton (something I wish people would post more shots of), I don't think it would be all that much of a leaker once wicked. I imagine a shorter coil would be, though (if dripped directly through the tip). I really dig this build though I still can't see exactly what is happening on that build deck. I am thinking that you can trap around the tops of the screw heads *or* at the base of the screw.

It looks like it could be one or the other. I would imagine if its a shorter coil the wire could be trapped by the screws. I'm glad you're taking one for the team here. I could never do this one. Every atty on the market that has bottom air, I have heard it leaks in some shape or form. Though, there are a few that have been really successful with them, the majority has been a fail overall. I wish you luck on your journey...

Does anyone in here have a Kennedy 22? For some reason I have an itch for one of these with a gremlin cap. But I'd seriously hate to spend that kinda money on something that will leak bad or that I won't like. Since its not cheap. The only bottom air flow rda I've owned was the freakshow mini and hated it. So if anyone has any thoughts that might sway my decision I'd appreciate it.

I have an original Kennedy with the two air holes instead of four and I really like it. Leaking is really not an issue unless you seriously over drip. The airflow tubes are tall enough where it really takes a ton of juice to get it to leak. I don't have a gremlin cap so I can't comment on that either. The flavor is pretty good on it, I was quite surprised when I first vaped it. It does seem to like hotter builds (0.2 ohms and below) so I would imagine in order to get that dense, hot, milky vape from a Kennedy with four air holes you may need to build 0.15 ohms or lower. Being a huge fan of the origen, this just isn't my kind of vape. Flavor is good but I hate having to have terrible battery life and hot mods just to get good flavor.

Mr Mann, do you know when and where this will be available?

Nope. I know that two batches have been made already, but I bet it's all going to be gobbled up in the Philippines first. The first pre-order, I suspect that anyone else can buy, will be soon. I am debating about getting an N22 finally. I found out that the price finally dropped on them from one of Sovapor's retailers. Dunno though, it's still high at $98.

Thanks man, I'll keep watching their Facebook and Instagram and when see pre orders go up, I'll post it here.

I can't speak for the 22 but I do have the 24 and they're basically the same design. This is the only atty that has done bottom airflow right. The only way to get it to leak is to drip directly in the airholes. For my 24 I usually fill up my juice well to the air holes and haven't had it leak even after being put into my pocket. You can't go wrong with the 22/24.

Just ordered an Eden Mods Snapdragon RDA from ifancyone today. Couldn't believe they had one in stock and with all the great reviews I've read/watched I couldn't help it. Plus I dig the magma and kinda miss mine so I figured I would give this beauty a run for its money. Will post my impressions when I receive it (who knows how long that will take coming from the UK). Now if only SectorOne could release that AX1 I could be officially broke!

Can't wait to hear how that one works for you.

Thanks guys! I appreciate the response. I'm not too worried about it needing a warm build, everyone I've heard from or reviews I read said the same thing. Maybe the gremlin cap will solve that but either way I'd be good. His site has it where I can buy the base and any cap I want so I think I'll go with that. Thanks again for the help!
