RTA for a beginner?

The first coil build is the roughest. That woman deserves an ohm meter!!

here it is while she was working on it. And ill be sure to get her ANOTHER ohm meter once she returns all the tools she has stolen from me

Winding coils doesn't really scare me at all. I've done plenty of small electrical work, this isn't nearly as difficult as designing and building a speaker crossover. What I'm more concerned about is getting the wicking right so I don't end up with dry hits.

All the tools she will need here and cheaper than at an ecig site.

This is the one I have from when I flew hobby helicopters.

just make sure the wick is long enough to touch the bottom of the reservoir. Too much wick can cause the dry hits. But hey, if you add too much or not enough, just pull it out and try again

I have already been informed that she will be stealing my new tools that I have here on the truck. Sadly she already has more tools than most mechanics (she keeps taking all of mine from my semi)

After talking to Roxy I decided to pick up a Rose V2 and the Taifun GT. I'm glad she had the powers of persuasion because I love both, the Lemo is next but it's out of stock at a decent price.

The Taifun couldn't get any easier to build and the vape is outstanding. Access to the build deck without having to drain the tank is a beautiful thing! I have one other that I like as much and that's the eXpromizer. You can't sub-ohm with this RTA since it uses a brass (or copper) spring on the 510 connection. Again, great flavor and vapor and you can rebuild without draining the tank.

That's exactly why I've stopped using my kayfun.
Once you get used to making your coil and doing your wicking I suppose it's more practical to use a kayfun type, but when starting out on rebuildables, it's real important to be able to change up your coil or wicking

I use my rc tools as well. I found if you pull the grub screw out that's holds the tooled end and put a long screw in you can hold one end of your wire with your thumb making wrapping coils easier.

Think you just have to read around and decide on the one that you feel will be easiest for you.
I went for a kayfun light plus v2. Authentic or clone you can decide but still read up on people that have used them and their opinions.

As mentioned above you do have to have an empty tank or drain the tank to build but I went and got an RDA for when i want to change liquids faster.

if you really don't spending the coin I just picked up a Squape R as my first RTA and I love the thing. Practically builds itself and has outstanding performance in both vapor and flavor production and with the AFC no matter how you like to vape it'll suit you. Every other RTA I looked at was missing some feature or another I wanted in my tank but the Squape pretty much has it all (other than an obvious way to dual coil it). It says it holds 5ml of juice but I just refilled it using my U-Can, 10ml capacity, and I had to stop part way through to refill the ucan! Open and close it as much as you want and it doesn't spill a drop.
