The interesting thing for me was that at first I was kind of underwhelmed with it as well. Then I switched to the included chuff cap & wow, I was blown away. But if it didn't float your boat then there's no need to keep it, fortunately there are so many great atty's out there! As much as I like new shiny things there's always that part of me that thinks I should just buy another Stumpy. I can't wait for V2.
Yeah, you are absolutely correct on there being a lot out there. Unfortunately, (or fortunately for me), everything seems to cater to the cloud chasers and everything is 22 or 24mm. I just don't get that there aren't more 16-20mm atty's on the market. I am stuck on the O-16's for now and don't think there is anything out there that can give me the outstanding vape I get from them. That's is great for my wallet though.....

Does anyone know of a good flavor atty that also has a smallish chuff cap? A chuff cap along the lines of the Avocado or Griffin is perfect. I have serious OCD when it comes to juicy fingerprints all over my mods so something that I don't have to take the cap off when I drip (and drive, shhh, I know) but still has great flavor without being insanely large is what I'm looking for. So, what does the council of RDA say??

What do you currently have?

ETA: The Pancake comes standard with a chuff tip. It's reasonably wide but not quite as wide as the Avocado's tip. It's also about half the height of it. You also get a 510 adapter.

Stumpy, Vector, Velocity, Derringer, Rogue, Velocity mini, Atomic, SOD5k & EVOLve, maybe more & multiples of some.
I stand by the Pancake suggestion. The Hobo V3.1 has a chuff top but I haven't seen them on the web site for a while so I'm not sure if Hoberto is still making them. Usually those type of tops mute the flavor but I find that I get better flavor with the Hobo.

Hey vape fam
So I am having a hard time finding an RDA that I can squank with as the BF pin for the hobo 3.1 is sold out. I found the hastur v2 that comes with a BF pin and is only $26 ! It seems like a strange little RDA but for the price and the fact it comes with a BF pin I'm pretty sure I can adapt to any quirks it has. Does anyobe here have any first hand experience at how it functions as a squonker.

Anyways this is a big vape mail week for me i have the Hobo 3.1 , VO Distro Evo, kennedy 24 ,Augvape Boreas(RTA) Steamcrave supreme and Ohmega BFT 30mm coming in so I'm pretty excited.

Don't you have squonkers? Why not squonk when driving or when dripping is inconvenient? That's what I do. I save dripping for at home.

Yep, I've got a few squonkers but always worry when I take one of the Sunboxes on the road with me. I just ordered parts to convert my SteamCrave to a DNA 200 squonker figuring that will be a good beater mod for when I'm out & about.

I'm not sure if fitment or tolerances may be an issue, but the angelcigs Hobo v3 clone i bought a while back came with a BF pin. May be worth a shot to try it and just toss the RDA that comes with it lol.

Keep checking the narmods.com site for the BF pin. It comes back in stock fairly regularly.

I have a Hastur V1 and its top fed so I can't speak to the squonking question but its a damn good atty for the price. Great flavor and airflow. The differences between the V1 and V2 are the V2 has a Velocity style deck, the air intake on the V2 is on the side rather than on the top and the V2 doesn't have the ugly logo on the side.

I'm getting a Boreas in this week as well. Can't wait.

For the Hobo 3.1 BF pin a I'm facing the same issue...I can't find one or find any info about thread type or anything like that. I ordered both versions of the FDV BF 510 pins and will report back if either work. I've already been told that the M2.5 will not, but I should have the RDA and pins in hand by the weekend and can report back.

Personally I would just wait for narmods to get them back in, like @jhhollier said they honestly restock them pretty quick and it's worth the wait to have something you know is gonna work and a good product. The last time I bought 1 I only waited about a week if that before I bought a 2nd.

For other quality BF atties, you'll regret it, but you should track the Catfish thread.
There are also a couple you can get from Apex - I have a Sapor on the way.
I set the Hastur aside - don't recall exactly why but it didn't do it for me - though I have odd preferences...:rolleyes:

I've heard some grumbling about the Hastur V2 on various threads so I'm holding off for now. Hopefully it was just the first batch.

There's some Hastur talk here: Hastur V2

as fishwater said I've seen some grumbling too but, I can't remember where.
