I just don't want any attys with bottom airflow holes that go straight through the deck nor do I want a three post deck unless the center post is split. Kennedy just fails on so many levels for me. I know lots of people love it, though.
I had been looking at the phenotype L for a big airflow dual post atty but haven't read into any reviews as far as flavor goes.

So was I even though I crapped on it when it was first announced. I really want the Temple 30mm but Vaperz Cloud only has the brass version in stock and I don't want to mess with brass having contact with the juice I'm vaping.

Other than the Velocity, what is a good Atty for big airflow and good flavor?

ETA: not the Kennedy either. Had one, hated it, sold it.
I will always recommend the aeolus. Any of them. The amount of airflow you can get is way more than I've ever used, even with a 0.10 ohm build in it and it has some of the best flavor out there. I have an authentic v1 I'd sell ya if you're interested; I have a v2 and way too much other stuff to justify having two around. I'll always keep one around though because the amount of flavor you get with that airy of a draw is pretty ridiculous.

I also have a V2 and I hate that reverse threaded barrel. It is cleaned and sitting in its packaging. I was hoping for something with more airflow than that. I don't need the flavor to be Hobo or NarDA level just don't want it to be muted as hell.

What made you dislike the Kennedy so much? And which one did you have

I didn't get good flavor from it. I had one of the older versions with dual air holes. I know it was changed so the air comes from the side but the air holes are still identical inside and instead of leaking on top of the mod and into the 510 it will leak down the side of the mod. No thanks. Plus its way expensive for what it is. Three post but no split center post. All big negatives for me.

I know many poopoo the velocity for flavor, but I really do like it. I've tried many different coils including clapton, fused, twisted, but I always come back to dual parallel 26g N80, eight wraps at 3mm, just about 0.25 ohms. This coil fits perfectly in the posts without any bending or shaping of the legs, just slide right it like they were made for each other. I use this on mechanical bottom feeders and have been quite happy with the flavor, not to mention the insane cloud production. It's a bit hard to tell him much the air slots are open, but I do close them down a bit as my batteries weaken. If you haven't tried one you may want to pick up a clone to see if you wanna spring for the authentic.

The one I have been itching to try is the aeronaut. If all goes well I should have one from chowder in the next few weeks.

I always thought aeronaut looked pretty cool. From what I've heard the flavor on it is pretty good and the vapor production is insane. It never sounded like something I'd use everyday but I really like the originality of it.

Veering off topic...

A couple of you guys have owned the Praxis Decimus, right? Flawless has them on sale for $40 and I was thinking about snagging one if they aren't total garbage.
Don't do it! For the love of god. There's a reason why they dropped so drastically in such a short time. Mine has a plethora of problems.

I was thinking of selling mine, but now that there 40$ brand new I'm not gonna get anything for it. I honestly still use mine sometimes, love the looks and the feel in hand but it's just got problems. Buzzing, vibrating, button rattling, and it's just flat out weak.

@inswva - I saw your post in the Venom thread and meant to respond earlier. Seeing you here reminded me. I honestly don't use it much though it's an awesome device. I'm considering selling it cause it makes no sense to have that beauty just collecting dust. I want to sell it with the 20mm short cranked atty.

I'd gladly take it off your hands but I'm a little light on funds at the moment between my copper CC mod and VR stab wood both coming up soon. If you still have it for some reason in a month or so, I'll definitely be interested.
