I'm in love with my Prometey 2 clones. Tight yet smooth, quiet, extremely flavorful. Pocket-friendly (and lightweight), no leaking since your juice gets suspended in a carto/polyfill/aquarium filter type material. Haven't touched any of my other attys since getting it. Then I got a 2nd one to use as a "flavor tester", since it can also be used as a dripper.

One other you may also enjoy I haven't seen listed here yet:

I have a Hurricane clone, and like it a lot.
Roxy, can you do a quick review for me? Just the pros and construction, a really quick ones.

Hey folks. Since I started to vape, I only enjoy tight airflows, even when I do lung hits, and the only RTA that allows tight mtl (that I know) is the KFL+.

I love my K4, but it will gurgle after some time with tight airflow and stays impossible to vape comfortably. I love my Squape R, but using it in the smallest air hole will cause some minor leaks (not nice when the atomizer is in your pocket). My Taifun gt II is to airy even on the smallest air hole (one on both side, its a clone).

So, that being said, I want to ask you guys which RTAs on the market can do tight mtl like the KFL+. Rose? Aqua? Tell me what you think! I want to try something new.
Thanks!

Nextgen is very tight.

I agree that the taifun GT2 is a bit too airy.
Another one I really enjoy is the Nectar. It is sort of a genny buy you wick it horizontallly. It is tiny, incredibly easy to fill, holds 4.5ml (for the non nano version) and has great flavor. It is a very simple design. Not very pocket friendly since the top is held on with an o-ring and it could leak through the fill hole or wick holes. It only comes with a plastic tank but some folks have used glass tanks and subtank o-rings with it. It is my favorite desk side atomizer.

Most any RTA will eventually leak in a pocket. I think it's heat expansion caused by the body heat in a pocket. All you can do is replace the o-rings to rule out a worn or chipped o-ring causing loss of vacuum seals.

Still, there's an open drip tip and air holes that allow anything that drips off the wick to eventually leak through the air holes. Every time we unscrew the o-ring junctions to re-coil or fill juice we run the risk of abrading an o-ring.

If I put my RTAs in my pocket while I cut grass, I will get some weeping of juice. If I put it in the drink holder on my lawn tractor end keep it vertical or at a 45 degree angle to let juice run back down into the tank ... no leaks.
