Recommend Griffin alternative?

[pappasmurfsharem]

What would you folks recommend as an alternative to the griffin that is less picky about wicking?

Its always a fight to get just the right amount to allow chain vaping and not leak, then of course every time I get it vaping nicely after closing/opening the juice flow a few times it nudges the wicking just enough to start leaking.

I've been running single coils 95% of the time lately, so if its a single only RTA that works too.

EDIT:
I suppose I should mention I'm a direct lung vapor,

Mage is the most forgiving tank to wick that I've tried. Clip cotton above chamber tops and block holes. Very open air flow. The negative is that they are not built very well IMO (sticky threading, weak glass).

Boreas, easy to wick and a great performer.

billow v3 or the new griffin plus , it has a juice well like the tsunami

♦ Kennedy style bottom airflow
♦ RDTA juice flow channel
♦ Easy wicking exactly same as RDA
♦ Big velocity build deck (18.9mm)

I might need to buy the Boreas to see what the fuss is about. On the other hand the Aromamizer was a tank that I couldn't wick if my life depended on it. And I'm reading they are somewhat similar.

O0o Interesting. I'll have to keep my eye on this one.

Thanks!

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. I suppose it comes with 2 decks one 2.5mm and one 2.0mm feed holes.

But I had the same issues with the Aromamizer as you. So I'm skeptical.

The Mage would be good to try but I vape through 3mls in about 10-15 mins. So that would be a major downer.

Never had an issue with wicking or leaks with the Boreas. Just have long tails for a bed of cotton. Then when you fill follow the instructions in the package.

Great all around tank for me. That and the Modfather, both awesome Tanks

Maybe take a look at the herakles rta-2 (and the mini version of it).
They are already released, cheap and the juice channels are very similar to the ones of the griffin 25 plus

Herakles or Mage. While the Herakles holds more liquid, I get better flavor out of the Mage. I consider the Mage as a convenient alternative to a dripper. It has the right flavor and airflow but I have to "drip" only every hour.

Wicking on both is much simpler than on the Griffin.

Herakles RTA-2.

Almost identical to the Griffin 25 except for the wicking. The Herakles is far more forgiving on wicking and you can stuff a lot more wick into it without causing any problems. This is especially good if you like to use large internal diameter coils.

I have both the Griffin 25 and Herakles RTA-2. I don't use my Griffin 25 at all anymore.

Just put an order in for the Billow V3 Plus. The Crius Plus is also one I'll probably end up ordering.
