Having your deck and posts made from brass and copper doesn't seem like a step in the right direction to me. It's long been determined that it's pretty dangerous to have your juice touching anything that is made from copper or brass. And before I get some "well vaping's not 100% safe anyway" comment, I get that but I'd like to keep it as safe as possible.

Big thanks for so many detail informations.

As myself for now, I already researched about Tsunami 22/24 or Aeolus Lite or MutationX V5 or Sapor. They all seem nice and sexy and low cost (<50$), suitable for my financial state right now. Just a little hard to ship them over here to my country. But I will do, even the custom fee will be ridiculous high, and even suspend to accept e-cig imported (I'm not sure so need to give it a shot and see).

Anyway still need more advices and experience from ppl.

Thank you all for your help.
Out of all those I prefer my Sapor hands down. Top air, EZ build, great flavor and vapor.

Well, I'm not new to this thread or otherwise, I just chose not to participate, and again reminded why. I believe everyone including myself has the right within rules to express an opinion, mine has been expressed. I'm not defending any material used in anything, though I do feel the issue is taken to an extreme.

Oh, and just for clarification I was referring to the fact that it was a two post design. But there again, my opinion.


The deadline is, at this point, real, plenty of people enjoy the Kennedy atomizers regardless of what they're made of, he seems to sell enough of them to not be too concerned with his choice of materials.

Hate on it all you want you do have that right, exercising your power of purchasing or not is the ultimate way to do so.

On that note I'll be back to lurking as I'm not interested in feeding your anger, or debating the issue.

Have a great day, and vape what you will.

Nobody's angry here dude, in fact out of 629 pages not one person has made a rude, or ignorant comment such as you, so why you've been lurking and acting like it's us is beyond me. So feel free go back to it, thank you.

And now back on the subject of RDAs to be on the look out for ... I recently bought the new and improved Wotofo Troll V2. Major improvement. Not that I didn't like V1, but they really out did themselves with the V2. I bought stainless, used it for a couple weeks and I knew I needed a 2nd one. I bought the black one next. It's 10mm deep (didn't measure myself) and Velocity styled deck is really awesome. Yes, you could do big ol clouds, but it also is very good in the flavor dept. I can't do big ol clouds myself.. more like medium. Lungs just don't have the capacity after 40 years of the stinkies under my belt. We'll see how the black one holds up as far as the paint not chipping off. Great atty, this V2 is !

People are still worried about copper and brass parts on atomizers? The municipal water you most likely drink was piped to you through copper pipes. I'd be more worried between the interaction of fluorides and chloramines in city water with copper than I am about my ejuice interacting with copper or brass.

Can you taste the copper or brass in your tap water? I didn't think so.

Here we go again. Get rid of one and here comes another one.

Say what you will but there's more people who don't like it then there are that do like it. I'll leave it at that.


P.S.- Can't tell you the last time I drank straight from the tap. There's reasons why Brita and other filter companies are in business.

I thought the same way until I got a Tugboat V1 which came stock with a copper center post. After about a month of use said copper post started corroding. Turned me off on the idea of using anything copper for sure and I figured might as well avoid brass while I'm at it. If you're comfortable with those materials, great.

And like Heisinberg said I haven't drank water straight from the tap in quite a long time.

Alright all you Stumpy RDA gurus I have a question for ya. I've now lost 3 drip tips for the stumpy (2-510 converters and a wide bore). My go-to previously was to buy a clone that came with an extra wide bore drip tip, however after trying to order both of the now discontinued versions (including the f'ing pink one) from FT there are literally none left anywhere.

If the originals weren't ....ing 25 dollars a pop I would just get those but I'd like to avoid it if I can since I'll inevitably lose that one as well.

So does anyone know of any drip tips that fit the 11.6mm diameter of the stumpy? This link has a drip tip that someone modded but as I'd like to avoid FT I was wondering if you guys had any other suggestions.

Thanks!

As a followup I got the FT drip tips in today and after modding them for the stumpy they fit great!

Link in the post I quoted has sku's and instructions on where to cut them for anyone interested

I tried a single coil in the middle, wasn't airflowing right, ripped it out and went with a pretty standard go-to build for me (except scaled down to either 2 or 2.5, I don't recall): dual, 27 gauge, 6 wrap for about 0.45

How's everyone building their origen littles?

Well, I finally gave in and ordered a two post Kennedy. Both the 24/25 because the 25 is 1mm bigger and new so gotta have that and I already have a 24mm slam cap so gonna need a two post 24mm too. I also remembered the Titanium goon, which I couldn't resist. Will more than likely be running series builds in these. I had been doing so well with not blowing money on vape gear too. Guess I can reason this was a reward for holding off. I think I may need help...
