I looked and the only place I found one is SlowTech. I might go thru them if nothing else. I ended up getting another DR RTA it will arrive today. If you know where to locate a black Aqua Master for a good price, let me know.
Oh... why would they do that? If it had to be plastic they should have gone with ultem. It's not like brass is that expensive. I do like the Topside. The Stainless Furyan looks good too. Plastic plate on that one also?Furyan is nice but does patina pretty quick. Also the switch/button plate is plastic instead of metal. So that plate does not patina, that drove my CDO crazy. I dont enjoy polishing to stay matchy.
Get a topside.

VaporDNA had them as well
It is a nice looking RDA for sure. The engravings are deep, top cap has turn stops similar to the B2K making it easy to remove and put back on a mod and awesome packaging.
There are not many Brass RDAs out there, it was local and the obvious choice for the Furyan. I do need to find a few more Brass ones to go on it though. The Tauren has a deck style along the lines of the the Recurve but can be built single or dual. The juice well is tiny so it's more suited to squonking instead of dripping IMHO. Semi restrictive airflow and great flavor, I've used duals and a single in it, but I really need to pick up some flat wire to try out.
Morten Oen was quite impressed with it over the Recurve and it's on par with the flavor from his beloved Njord and he actually gets quite giddy about the Tauren. The video below is queued up at the Tauren testing spot but it's worth a full watch for the Njord, Recurve and Tauren airflow comparison.
Wish they had reworked this. But ayy there it is.
Because if the button lock/button assembly was brass it would complete the circuit not block it maybe? Depends on the design.
Agree they could've done ultem or black depending on the color of the mod. though.

Nice that they kept the same junk frame from the OG Drone. I bet the leaky 510 and button board is the same also...
At least with the Silver/Ultem version you will be able to see when its leaking down through the positive post onto the top of your batteries.
Hopefully Daniel will tear one apart soon so we can have a look at the 510, but I don't have any expectations of a revised version.
Overwicking an RTA can definitely mute flavor. Sometimes there's a fine line between a flavorful vape and a gurgly one.
Strange on your Serpent SMM though. It tends to be very forgiving on wicking and not leaking. Almost makes me wonder if you had a vacuum leak or some other issue.
Post pics of your next build on it and one of our shiny little campers will be glad to help and undoubtedly point you to several other RTAs you can spend your hard earned money on.

Gonna see if my guy in Shenzhen will sell me his preproduction. I could have had it weeks ago but I thought it was a special edition triade from the picture he showed me. I’m a dummy.
So I learned a great lesson last night. Do not leave your squonker in the car when it's 24 degrees outside for 3 hours while at the Aussie Pink Floyd concert. This translates into nasty Dry Hit. Who knew if you lived in the tundra you could use Max VG ejuice as a building material as it hardens like concrete hehehe. On a brighter note, I will be diving into a several boxes of new shinys today. Any of you silly rabbits seen/have the VSticking Yihi 530 chipped mod yet?

I have never seen him get like that over an rda before lol. I ended up watching the whole video. I will have to add it to the list I really like the way the af is set up and I like attys with turn locks. Brass caps are a bit tough to find on new attys. I realy need to get some flat wire to try out. His voice and the way he talks always reminds me of self help videos
Still nothing shiny on order but I did order 240 ml of juice this morning and I intend to order a boat load more later today.
