The NarDA is a great atty. I had the opportunity to build and vape on one for the better part of the day today. Can accomodate single 4mm coils and the juice well was deeper than I had anticipated. The Ultem cap and drip tip are a must for big, hot builds. Acceptable draw and vapor production. Went through 15ml of Phillip Rocke Grand Reserve and 15ml of ANML Looper. Excellent flavor. Right up there with the MCV Fuel. After putting aside thoughts of procuring one, I am now in the market for one.

yeah i wont sell until i have no other option with builds
clapton seemed to do the trick but maybe because was spitting in my mouth =x
thanks kformeck ill give it a test tonight or on my day off tomorrow
yeah definitely give it a few tries. I've only been doing single coils and I'm really happy with mine, but I don't like a super warm vape. but if it does't end up working out for you I'll happily buy it from you ;)

If anyone is interested in an all out F5 war, MEB Mods is releasing two batches of M-attys tomorrow - one at 8AM PST and one at 8PM PST.

What's easier to build on for a noob? Snapdragon or Origen V3? Trying to narrow down buying my first rda. What's another good one that compares to these other than Hobo and NarDa. I plan to start with very simple builds and/or buy pre rolled coils.

I will say that the origen is easier but it's all preference IMO.

The snapdragon is a real pain sometimes when doing dual coils because of the 'trapping-the-wire' game you have to play and if you're using anything larger than 26g, it becomes really fiddly.

The origen is actually very straightforward to build; don't let the vertical coils intimidate you, they're quite a bit easier than people make them out to be. The only tricky part is wicking them but once you get it, you got it.

With that said, if you are single coil only guy, the snapdragon will be easier to build because trapping those leads are very easy when there is only coil to trap.

Hobo is pretty easy and snapdragon is also very easy. Plus Eden mods is releasing velocity style posts as a upgrade to the snapdragon 1.5 very soon. I have the hobo and snappy and I never don't have both of them with me

Look for the velocity posts coming soon for the snapdragon

Dang, I might try to get one, but they're sold out of BF kits, which means I'd end up with one pricey paperweight...sonofabitsch.

It's more than likely going to be an exercise in frustration, so I may opt out like I did with the last NarDA. Not really a fan of going through all of that.

Nuevo Rda

This one is obviously heavily inspired by the Stumpy. 23mm, two posts, two airflow sleeves, looks like it has some kind of top airflow going on along with side airflow. The price on this one is what the Stumpy SHOULD be priced at. I think I'm gonna give it a whirl.

ETA: One con for some people might be that there is no AFC other than changing from one sleeve to another. For me, not a con as I generally run my drippers with the airflow wide open. If I want tighter airflow, I use an atty that is more geared to tighter airflow. If I want more open airflow, I use one with a more open draw.

Re:SHOULD

I know, man. I want another Stumpy badly, but I just can't fork over that money again for that atty.

I love how the black edition is $30 more. I don't know how pricey "plasma coating" is so maybe it's justifiable but it makes the already overpriced atty ridiculously overpriced. Whatever, it's Element Mods business and if people pay the price so be it.
