I got lucky yesterday and one of my local shops (inno vapes) got the Hadalys in stock so I grabbed one. I'm interested to see what everyone thinks about it. I like that it's decently versatile, it doesn't sacrifice clouds for flavor or vice versa. It can essentially be whatever you want it to be. I only did one build so far so I'll reserve my thoughts for now but I'm enjoying it. It's the first rda I've bought in months, I've been considering selling my whole lot of rda's and really downgrading for a change, but I don't regret this buy at all.

Titanium O-atty slam-cap
I know...evil...

Got my O-atty today from FLCLOUDCHASERS and is a very nice atty. Flavor like a Narda with MUCH more airflow. Other bonus is no whistle ;)

Simple 7 wrap with 24g 316L wire.

Those who have a Hadaly coming are in for a real treat, this thing is amazing for price. The flavor is better than the o-atty and it was easiest build I've ever done. The clamps here actually serve to make mounting the coil easier. The draw is very smooth and the machining is on par with many atomizers in the $100+ range. Overall, I'm extremely satisfied with this atty and I'm glad I bought two of them.

Couldn't resist... Hadaly is now inbound. I almost hope I don't like it a much as I think I will - I have a bad habit of buying multiples of every atty I fall in love with. And, of course, I will need to buy all of the accessories.

All over the place
To anyone with or getting a Hadalay. Be careful taking off the tip. Immediate shredding of o-rings. Also, and maybe another issue with o-rings, my cap doesn't want to sit flush on the deck. It was flush when I got it, but after taking it off and building, now it is a game of press, turn, repeat.

My first build was just okay. The build was easy, but I don't think it was the right build. I am still trying to figure out how best (for the way I vape) I want to build this.

Has anyone tried this RDA? Looks like a very interesting build deck.

I love it so much I got two, it's a wonderful flavor Chaser that has good cloud production also. The flavor is out of this world. Excellent build quality and the included 1.3mm hex tool is the best you'll ever use.

Wonderful RDA that I highly recommend.

Hmm, I'm not having any of those issues.

With a single fused clapton (36g/2x26g) build, the flavor is absolutely top notch. On par with my NarDAs and A-R_Ys and certainly better than the o-atty

It was without a doubt the easiest build I've ever done, the coil pretty much positions itself. To be sure to mount the coil so leads are on top (and the coil sits down into the deck), this will ensure enough air is hitting the coil.

That was how I built mine, which makes sense based on the deck. But... I dunno, it just tastes to me like a good RDA. Nothing next-level or anything. Not like how my own internal-hype made it up to be. Just a (really good lookin') RDA with an easy build (almost as easy as the NoPity).

And my build had more spit than I care to handle (which totally puts a finger on the scale in terms of flavor, AFAIC). I also did not put in exotic coils in mine. I figured I could see what it perform like with builds that I use in RDAs that I would judge it up against (NarDA or O), and it didn't measure up in my opinion with a "normal" build in those.

I hope I don't "have" to put an exotic "flavor build" in it. That would be a waste for me.

Got to try regular duals next.

Man, this is one where we definitely see things differently [emoji5]

I think the Hadaly was way easier to build than the NoPity because the leads slip right in perfectly without requiring any bending or lead trimming.

That's odd that you got spitback as well, I get absolutely no spitback whatsoever. Next build, try using less cotton; I've found that to be culprit of spitback on my NarDA and a few others.

I did do an exotic build for my first build so maybe that's why the flavor is so good for me. I do need to close the airflow down a little more than halfway through because wide open, it's too much airflow for my preferences.

You still liking the o-atty? I just cannot seem to find a build that gives me anywhere near the flavor of the NarDA and Hadaly. Those slam caps were a joke too, totally screwed up the draw and that wide bore drip tip is waaaay too wide for me.

Got my hadaly and I love it. Pre ordered it from VapeHappy and it came in Monday. The serial number is 4 which I think is pretty cool! Everything I want in an rda: flavoring chasing single coil build that can handle beefy Clapton style wire. Got a 3mm juggernaut coil in there 0.35 ohm. Awesome in every aspect. All other RDAs are now dust collectors.image.jpegimage.jpegimage.jpegimage.jpeg
