I must of gotten lucky then cause mine is super easy to get off. I hated it when I first got it, but compared to something like the reverse threading on the aeolus v2 pro, this is a breeze especially when it's wet.

That's why I got rid of my Aeolus V2 Pro. I traded it for a Mangala and I'm really enjoying it. Lots of airflow, giant build deck but still pretty good flavor. I mean it's not NarDA good but it's still giving me a flavorful vape with a pretty modest build (.6 ohm 3mm ID dual Claptons at 60W+)

I hated the v2 pro when I first got it with a passion, I barely even gave it a chance. But I've been using it a lot more recently and I have to say I do enjoy it, would I pay full price? No. But for what I got it for Yeah I'd do it again. It's nothing special but I just enjoy an rda that doesn't leak, that's a big selling point to me.

I honestly don't have an issue with leaking from most of my drippers unless I am too heavy handed with my dripping. That said I understand wanting an atty that is leak resistant. I just didn't get the greatest flavor from the Aeolus and I thought the airflow was crappy. Not the amount just the feel of the draw.

That's weird, that's normally what most people like about it, the airflow or the draw of it. Given the option I could do away with all side air flow to be honest. Except the NarDA, but then again if most rda's were more like that then none of us would have a problem.

Sorry guys is I take the hobo and boil it with the coils installed would I have a problem?, I think I missed some oil
Nope, you should be perfectly fine. Someone else commented in here not that long ago that they do that too, I think.

Or if the dawn would make the coils taste weird or if I should skip that step and just boil
I personally don't think the soap will make it taste any different. Just run it under hot water after the soak and then dry burn it. You should be good. Just what I would do.

I like the top airflow of the Hastur but I think that's because of the side airflow inside the barrel. If that makes sense. I didn't care for the way the Aeolus or Vector are set up with airflow just above the coils.
