    Yes, the SQuape looks a very good rta. How would you rate it against the Dvarw?

    Hope you're well too :wub:
    I'm doing fantastic Charlie. I hope you and the Mrs are doing well. :wub:

    The Arise and Dvarw are both excellent flavor RTA's. I don't like offering direct comparisons cause personally I don't think it's fair. They're two very different RTA's. If I were forced to pick one over the other for flavor it would be the Arise.

    B-b-but... my always in use Dvarw's rank very highly for flavor. IMO for flavor the Arise is more on par with a kayfun or Project X. I believe the design has a lot to do with that. :D

    Coul Clout order arrived while I was at work. Finally have some ( fingers crossed) good snips.

    3 snips. Wow. Nothing like backups for the backups. :shock: I bought a pair of those from Coil Clout. So far they're holding up very nicely.

    I've only jabbed and cut myself once with them. Didn't need to dry burn the cut on my finger though. ;) I was tempted and many words that cannot be used here were spoken very LOUDLY. :lol: :lol:

    Good morning shiny ones :wub:

    Here we go Ali.
    Never bought from these guys before but their prices are good and they even have a phone number listed which they answer. Rare.
    They shipped within 12 hours of my order and it should be here tomorrow or Monday.

    EDIT just saw that Ange already posted :thumb:

    when you get it Pigs we want a full report ;)

    Currently I have the 5x0.8mm air disc installed in the Arise and for me it's a fine airy MTL to a fairly restricted DL.

    I've also tried the 4x0.8mm and 3x0.8mm AF discs. Both provided a great vape and flavor (more condensed). Before trying any of the AF discs I ran it in DL mode. For me it is a super airy but fine and very flavorful DL. And yes, ;), I then tried it with an MTL DT and the chimney reducer to see how the Arise does a Frankenvape (excellently :D).

    I've been chatting with Chris Lusser at StattQualm and they will be "producing more air discs in the future". Those will be "mainly for restricted direct lung".


    Under the coil with no air disc installed it's 8mm x 3.5mm. The dual inflow AF ports on the deck are 2x3mm. The AF measured at the chimney is 5mm. See pics.

    As you look at the build deck you'll notice straight away that it is very similar to the Hussar Project X RTA deck. Once the tank section with closing ring is attached it is a very condensed chamber just like the X. And like the X it's a great vape. AF options are superior with the Arise versus the X. I have a 0.45 ohm 316L clapton installed.


    That's so subjective but try I will. ;)

    IMO the flavor is more on par with a Kayfun (KFL, K3, K5, Prime, KFL19) or a Project X. Also the design being so different versus a Dvarw, Tripod or others I have I don't think a direct comparison is truly fair. If I was forced to choose between the Arise and my Dvarw's or Tripod's... nope, I can't do that. If a fake gun was held to my head, I would choose ________.
    Haha, I danced around that rather nicely! :rickroll: :lol: :lol:

    I've been doing side-by-side vape testing between the Arise, KFL19, Prime, Dvarw MTL FL, DL FL, Pocket v2 RTA, Tripod and the X. For me personally a Kayfun will always be number 1. IMO Kayfun's are extremely super tough to beat for flavor and quality of vape. The vape on the Arise is right in there with a Kayfun. Super smooth and the flavor is very awesome. :D

    So hmmm is not yet quite in RDL category. Correct?

    We will see if Eta looks over her left shoulder and seeing Mel as it goes to Miami.:pop:
    I’m soooo over hurricane season. At this rate, people will be including taking down outdoor Christmas decorations as part of storm prep :lol:
    On the up side, I’ve never been better at keeping my batteries all charged as this summer/fall.

    This is going to be a tall order. The other day I was scrolling and somebody was talking about a really good sale on a dot mod of some sort. I think the website started with an A but I'm not a hundred percent sure. I think that the mod was under $40 but I don't remember. There was something else on that site that I saw that I liked but now I can't remember where that site is so if anyone happens to know what I'm talking about please help LOL

    * and yes I do have a memory problem like an actual memory problem with short-term things.

    You can do a RDL with the Arise out of the box. All you need to do is rotate the tank section to your desired airflow. No AF disc is needed. The Arise has dual sided AF. It does a fine RDL. When I tested DL vaping I also vaped it RDL.

    I'm sorry I should have mentioned that in my post. :blush:

    The future plan to release RDL air discs is IMO mainly for those folks who want to further tweak their vape for a more exacting AF with RDL while having the AF/JFC wide open.

    The way StattQualm is doing this with the Squape Arise is just like Atmizoo did with the Tripod RTA. Quite some time after Atmizoo released the Tripod they came out with a Fixed Airflow Tubes Kit targeted for RDL / DL vaping. It includes 5 tubes with airflow holes of 2.0, 2.2, 2.5, 2.8 and 3.0 mm (4mm is the Tripod default AF). :)

    Thank you STM :wub:. For me I can fine tune my RDL just with the airflow which is a good thing ;)

    They still have them in black or red.

    And yes, they do have some other decent deals in their clearance section. :)

    I was a very quick learner from everyone else here. :thumbs:

    Much like the #1 Asmodus enabler, the Aussie Asmodus King. ;)
    Hmmm, but a true King would have an elite Dvarw army protecting all those lovely Asmodus (and now VA) museum pieces! :lol: :lol:

    Only one backup. Smaller pair for work kit, one for home kit. Haven't tested them or the scissors yet. Love being able to take my smaller coily for the work it.

    Perfect :wub: the airflow in wide open spaces DL mode, with no reducers, sounds like my ideal MTL draw :blink:

    And you are right, it's impossible to compare RTAs as we all have different things we prefer the most. For me it's airflow no. 1, the flavour and bulletproofness no. 2 (simple to wick, fill and toilet train), followed by capacity, smoothness, vapour density, and finally looks.

    But if it has all of the above and looks like @Cloud-FF7 's dream RDTA?
