Sooo tempted to order one of these guys. Just got my Inbox a couple of weeks ago and love it so I'm having a hard time justifying the RSQ. Is the RSQ noticeably smaller than the Inbox? Is TC better than the Inbox?
I also just got my vt inbox a few weeks ago. I did just receive the Hotcig Rigmod, it’s definitely smaller, but I didn’t try tc yet.

Thanks! If you ever get a chance to post a pic of the two side by side that would really be appreciated!

Is the Rigmod logo less conspicuous on the silver than it looks on the painted framed ones? I'm leaning towards blue or silver when they're back in stock.

Please post your impressions if you do get around to trying TC - especially if it’s with SS316L. :)

Hey guys, wow it's been a long time since I've posted on here...

Anyway, I just ordered mine off Vape Royalty $63.95? and had to convince myself as well that I would be ok with the silver as the black is out of stock. I plan to eventually get a zapwrap for it since they are already making them for the RSQ anyway.

BUT I got 2 questions for you guys:

1) I RETURNED the stupid iJoy Capo Squonk last week after all the hype and being so furious that it doesn't "boost" but only "bucks" the wattage... With that being said, PLEASE tell me that you can get something near an 80 watt vape with the RSQ and the HM chip... I wouldn't normally use it to vape at 80 watts (probably will do more around 60-65) BUT what I noticed with the Capo was that even at 65 watts, once the battery started dying, the vape started dying too. So it basically is just a mechanical squonk mod with a screen...

2) I'm only gonna ask this in this thread because a few of you have posted the Nixon RDTA in your pics... How is the airflow on that thing? So in all pics it looks to me like it would be restricted as F. I actually like a restricted lung hit, but not too restricted. The Entheon is maybe a tad bit too restrictive for me, though I enjoy vaping it. The Flave rda has about the perfect airflow for me.

Thanks!

Here you go :) in person it’s less prominent.
Not as bad on the silver, just wish Rigmod didn't need to have an obnoxiously large logo on the mod. I do like the size and shape of the mod. I look forward to hearing your experience with it once you've had some time to play with it! :thumb:

...

That was the Deal Breaker for Me with the Capo.

On the Watts thing. I don't have one of these Squonkers. But if it Can do 80 watts, and you want to us it up to 80 watts, then you would want to use a 30A CDR Battery.

80 Watts / 4.2 Volts / .9 Efficiency = 21 Amps
~
80 Watts / 3.3 Volts / .9 Efficiency = 27 Amps

I can’t answer the wattage question since I only vape 32 - 35 watts max.

The Nixon is pretty restrictive, more flavor than Clouds. The Entheon is next on my wishlist so I can’t compare.

Thanks. Yeah I have 4 of the iJoy 20700 5-leg-tops that Mooch rated at 30A. I just need it to do a steady 75 watts at most until the voltage cut-off gives me a lo-batt (which I hope is a decent amount of time).

Yeah I don't care about clouds. I'm all about flavor. The reason I ask about restrictiveness is simply for comfort. If an atty has super restrictive airflow with fantastic flavor, but the draw is so tight that I have to huff and puff after each draw, then obviously I would opt for a less restrictive option.

I find the Entheon to be right on the edge for me. Most of the time I like the draw... But sometimes, just every now and then, I'll feel like I have to put too much effort into drawing from it.

The draw is not so tight that you have to huff & puff after each vape. And it’s not super restrictive either. It’s def not Nautilus tight at all. It just doesn’t produce tons of Vapor. Just a decent amount of Vapor with good flavor. Hope this helps a little.

See the thing is that "restrictiveness" regarding an RDA's draw is so relative. You may not have to huff and puff after each hit, but a 40 year ex-smoker may... I just wish someone could relate the Nixon's draw to some other attys as that would be the best way to describe it to a fellow vaper. I've owned quite a few: Pulse 24, Dead Rabbit, Entheon, The Flave, Crown I, Crown III, Reload RTA--just to name a few popular ones that people here might be able to compare to.
