RTA that behaves like an RDA?

[drugarth]

Love the bellus, but perhaps the indulgence mutank will fit your needs best.....big build deck, topfill, single and dual coil, rta and factory coils....four post deck and optional velocity deck, which you want to fullfill the grub screw/ 2 post wish.....I think the mutank+ it's velocity deck ticks all your boxes.

 

[Jdurand]

The Aromamizer fits all your requirements except for top fill. The bottom fill on this tank is so easy it doesn't matter. (think nautilus) I am so in love with this tank now that I put all the others away.

fountain v2 has treated me well, I like the flavor and vapor....not top fill but it's simple to refill

 

[Vapeweazel]

What about the eTank F1 from EHPRO? A Dripper with a tank on top, easy to reach and build deck. Huge vaping Chamber, Top Airflow, so very leak proof. I ran it up to 120W with dc clapton. But no top fill - filling system like FeV:

 

[pappasmurfsharem]

The Griffin looks really nice, but the only way I've seen to handle single coil is to run the coil across both holes, which kinda sucks. The problem is that they have the 4 juice channels on there.

So does the aromamizer.

You can just stuff the ever loving *#&% out of 2 of the holes with cotton so that they can't wick well and it shouldn't leak.

i give the aromamizer a nod and am thinking of getting the Diablo RTA clone next. i'm looking to get the 2.5mL but they are coming out with a 5mL version soon. i have also been enjoying the silverplay nano project subohm edition as well. it is bottom fill with a screw however. but the flavor and vapor production have been great. made me put down my aromamizer and goblin mini.

well I make my own 100% vg juice and use 28 gauge kathanal 2.5 6-7 wraps , no leaks no dry hits and like a rda it gets air from the side which is a huge plus. the srews are very well made to

 

[dolladave]

Imo my go to tanks are the Aromamizer RDTA or the VCMT. The VCMT is top fill with more airflow that equals and/or greater than most drippers that I've tried and the flavor is absolutely spot on....It'll wick max vg with no issues and if it were possible to exceed 100% VG, I believe it'd vape 110% VG lol

cheers,
david

It's almost like the Bellus, Lemo 2, and Velocity RDA all got together and had an ugly kid! I have to admit, even though I'm not very fond of the styling, I'd be willing to give it a shot for the features.

Well, thanks everyone. Now I'm looking at a bunch of new shiny things and I want all of them. I've loosened up a bit on my requirements because of such great reviews, and here are all of the top contenders:

- Bellus
- Mutation X MT
- Goblin Mini
- Griffin

Each of them has their own pros and cons, and I have no idea what I want to get. They're all so lovely.

 

[Eric Auer]

Absolutely love my Goblin Mini and the V2 is topfill with standard 510 driptip.

I would look at the V2 as many people really dislike the bottom fill arrangement on the V1 (It does not bother me).

I recommend a tank with a dripper style deck to get the same 'hit' as an rda, such as a flash e vapor

 

[r055co]

I believe the quest for Tanks is over for me! VCMT 25mm, huge Velocity style deck and large juice capacity. I'm sporting SS fused Clapton's, 5 wraps, with 3mm diameter at 0.12 ohms. Vaping at 80 watts with TC, 440 degrees setting. Nice beautiful Vape that rivals a lot of RDA'S.

I've got the Bellus, Griffin and Crius. The VCMT is awesome. No leaks, not finicky at all with wicking, I mean easiest tank I've ever had the pleasure of wicking.

I just went to my local vape shop today and looked at the Griffin. I vaped off of one of the employee's Griffins and it was pretty good, but I don't like that you can't single coil it. I also felt the threading was very poor for the price (it was $50 there!). Looks like the frontrunner right now is the Bellus. That VCMT looks pretty cool but I'm not going to spend $70-80 on a tank.

I used tanks for YEARS, then eventually moved on to RTAs, but I was never totally satisfied with the flavor. About 6 months ago, I started building on RDAs and using 100% VG juice. It's changed my life. I started with the ElDiablo Baal and am now using the Twisted Messes, which I love. Every draw is so juicy and delicious that I wonder how I got by using my STM and Lemo Drop. However...

I miss my tanks. They're convenient, harder to "overfill" and leak everywhere, keeping them upright is not necessary, and the top cap can't just fall off in my pocket and wick my underwear full of juice. The problem is (or was) that tanks have (had) horrendous airflow, max VG juice won't wick, and the flavor profile is non-existent compared to RDAs.

This is what I want:
- Tank
- Top fill
- Easy to fill (no screws or anything)
- Quality deck, easy builds, hex screws highly preferred (definitely don't want phillips)
- Good airflow & easily adjustable
- Great flavor
- Two post preferred (two post holes per post would be awesome)
- No leaks
- A good size tank is a "nice to have"

In case it matters, I'll be using 26ga and 28ga kanthal standard macro coils, 28ga for dual coil and 26ga for single coil. I build both to be about 1.2ohm and hit them from 30-35 watts.

Six months of tech has to have brought something good to the table, right? I know a lot of stuff has been released, but is there any RTA out there that can mark all my checkboxes? Please!

aromamizer, the only rta i bought that didn't leak on me, the bottom fill didn't bother me that much since it has 6ml... i can use for 2 hrs easy

hastur rdta looks nice too, trying to get my paws on one lol

u could also look into mutank for $30 ish, the velocity deck is separate for around $10

I do like the Griffin, the threading does get better after uses but yes, I do agree that the threading could be much better. I got it for around $35, not a bad price.

The Bellus does have awesome flavor, but the build deck is tight. That and every time you refill it the tank does leak since there is no juice flow control. After I refill it I vape to clear up the leakage, it's a minor PiA but the flavor is great on it.

The VCMT though seriously is awesome, I picked it up for $65 and IMO is well worth it. The tank is well build, threading is very smooth and with the large Velocity style build deck very easy to build on. Biggest joy is not a finicky wicking system. Seriously you just fill the slots with cotton, no "oh just insure you only fill it 1/2 or quarter or what ever .... you just fill the slot with cotton and no leaking or dry hits. Plus this seriously is the closest tank that has ever come to an RDA experiance.

I ended up ordering the Bellus today from MVS. We'll see how it goes.

I still use the Orchid V6 often. Dirt cheap, can be had for under 10 bucks from Fasttech. I think it still holds up, it's not new and flashy, but it works well. Try one out, it might surprise you, really.
