All over the place
And, not an rda, but I've been loving my Zephyr. Looking forward to hearing about other folks' builds and suchlike.

Great flavor, surprisingly generous airflow & I really like the feel of the draw. It's very rich, for lack of a better term.

Nice. Maybe you can help me out with it.

I think jaybo's new rda will be a decent one. He normally makes good stuff, I can't say I've had a problem with anything he's ever made. From way back with the tobh v2 to the bambino and the indestructible. Granted everything I've bought was from him, not wismec so I can't comment on that. It's cool that he's including a 30mm barrel and a 22mm barrel for people on both ends of things. Plus I think that deck looks like a dream to build on, especially verticals, you'd be in an out in seconds. Will I buy one? Maybe. I'm not really in the market for non BF rda's I posted this for everyone in here.

Check out the RDA and RTAS on this site. I just ordered the S.O.D with a granite chuff and the BF kit. Anyone familiar with these attys?
Collections

I have the SOD5K with the BF pin & it's a pretty nice atty but a little restricted with the single coil cap. I also bought the cloud cap but that was way too open for my tastes. I ended up drilling out the single coil cap a few bit sizes & now it's perfect for me. Flavor is off the charts good, build quality is excellent & it's a unique but easy deck to build on. I haven't used it in a month or so but need to revisit it with a vertical coil again.

So am i! Lol. I'm stuck between the stumpy they have and the thump. Never wanted a stumpy before but if it's BF I can do that. Problems I tell ya.

I have both the Thump & a Stumpy, both modded by Tom for BF. Flavor is better on the Thump no question but the build deck is a little cramped or shall I say shallow. As a BF it's fine but I couldn't imagine dripping on it since there is almost no juice well at all but some it's so shallow the flavor make's up for it. Some have accused the Thump of having a tight draw but while not a cloud atty by any stretch there is plenty of air, top air which is a win IMO so it's bone dry as a squonker. Now the Stumpy is worth all the hype, incredible quality, build deck, air, juice well, squonk ability & top notch flavor, it's seriously the cats meow IMO. All that being said I love both atty's, I can't see selling either one so in other words you can't go wrong.

Finally I saw a bunch of pages back the Evolve by VODISTRO was mentioned. It's a well designed, machined & implemented atty, especially being US made for $60. But, not a flavor atty, this one is all about clouds bro. I am running mine with dual vertical Clapton's, as much as I love the chuff cap I had zero flavor so had to switch to the 510 adapter. Overall the rest of the atty is so nice I can't knock it too much for a lack of flavor, it's probably equal to say the Vector flavor wise. I also love that the top cap locks into a notch & it's pretty leak proof. I'm sending mine to Tom (once I'm done blowing clouds for days bro) to have him BF it because I think it's a pretty good one even if it's a little light flavor wise. Guess I've been spoiled by the Thump & Stumpy.

Got my Viper V2 in today. Threw a 2mm ID Clapton in it that ohms at about .5 and this little puppy is a flavor machine. Since its a 14mm atty you have to squonk more often but it's such a satisfying vape that I can forgive that. The airflow is slightly more restricted than the NarDA but still enough to lung hit. Definitely the best Hellfire atty I've had.

Just got my first "modern" RDA. Atty3 by Motofo.

I like it. Beats the hell out of my old as dirt EHPro Flash. At least I can put multi-core claptons in this thing without a problem. Not to mention the airflow being...........there isn't an adjective that fits.........superior to the EHPro Flash.

Edit: By multi-core, I mean twisted/fused claptons etc.

So apparently there is another Hobo on the horizon. A pic was posted in the Hobo FB group but the atty is in bag so you can't really see it. There's a contest going on to name the atty and if your name gets the most votes you get one for free. I jokingly suggested HoNar the Tarbertian.

Is it easily over squonked? It looks like it would be difficult to over squonk.

I like a huge draw so I am sure I will like the chuff. For $30.00 I rolled the dice. It looks like it's well milled.

Hey everyone i just found this thread and already I can tell my wallet is in trouble 8)

Anyways I love flavor attys and smooth vapes Im really enjoying the petri v2 and tug 24 but as soon as I saw that no pity I knew I had to have it !!!

I got these cheeseburgers haha so a couple questions
First how much are they??
Second is there any other place to get them in the US besides the site that states they will have some soon??

Also I have never tried one and really only have a basic idea of what they are but what is a squanker and why do I need one oh lord I see a lot of people all going crazy over bottom feeding attys and I assume that has something to do with squonking.

Sorry about all the questions and I am stoked I found this thread

Welcome aboard, indeed you either need a LOT of willpower or a deep pocket to hang in this thread. Mr Mann and his cohorts have me spending a couple hundred a week after some short drools over attys pictured here.

Once you try squonking (bottom feeding) I doubt you'll go back to dripping, except to taste-test.

Should be $100 to $125. What is interesting about the NoPity is that the RDA is not serialized :) .

According to NoName via Facebook and confirmed via Messenger, VapinArt is the sole US distributor through normal channels (for now). Otherwise, you can request one directly from NoName for the purpose of review (typically from an email with a domain which reflects a bona-fide vape shop) or procure a unit from a Facebook list. Internationally, you also have...

VapStor in France
High Creek in Switzerland
Vape Villiage in Japan
