    Happy turkey day!

    What’s a good mod to get right now? Any faves? I have the geekvape aegis, both single and dual batteries. I’m looking for something new.

    I mainly use the zenith 2 and crown 4 tanks. I just got back into vaping and the choices are endless. Figured I’d check in to see what’s working or not working for you all.

    Innokin Coolfire Z 80 is the first to spring to my mind.

    For dual battery I like the new Dovpo Riva 200 and Geekvape Legend 2.

    Single battery I like the Dovpo Abyss, aspire Mixx, Lost Vape Hyperion, and Lost Vape Cyborg.

    Well I broke ranks. Not getting anything vape related....unless I see a worthwhile discount. What i've seen so far is a bit on the meager side.
    I decided to treat myself to a new saddle for the bike. Going old school. Still the most comfortable saddle to. Anybody remember these

    Innokin z80 gets my vote if you're not too high in wattage. Otherwise a 21700 mod, I've got the Lost Vape Grus and Ursa. If you like the Aegis range, there's always the 21700 Aegis Max. Most newer mods are pretty similar in performance, it really comes down to what you like in a mod.

    I grew up on them. I can't believe I let my anatomy go through so much agony this last few years, with all kinds of different saddles. :-x

    I should've got a Brooks from the start :thumbs:

    I expected to see 10 inches of memory foam attached to a saddle!

    Yeah they're not cheap...but quality usually isn't. My but is consoling my wallet already :lol:
    LOL...been there Ange. The foam don't work. It compress over time. It quickly let's the sit bones know about it to.
    This leather saddle is firm in the beginning, but it gradually softens and shapes to the individuals anatomy. I got the aged one, so it's softer from the get go....well sort of.
    It's nick name is the hammock saddle :D

    I'm trying to figure out why some tanks give better flavor than others. My mind always told me (or is it reviewers that told me) that the closest the coil is to the mouth, the better the flavor. Well the Brunhilde is damn good in that department, but the Dvarw is just about equal with it. The Brunhilde coil is close to my mouth, but the Dvarw has an old school long chimney.
    Now I just started up my original Juggerknot mini and it don't give the same flavor as a clone Dvarw (for me anyways). The Juggy has a shorter chimney, so in (that) theory, it should give me better flavor...right?
    So yeah....why does certain RTAs give better flavor than others?

    My theory is it lies in the wicking. The better a tank saturates it's cotton, the better flavor it gives.
    The pinnacle of saturated cotton with the tanks I have is the Kumo. Boy this thing makes a saturated flavorful vape...like no other. The only reason it's flavor isn't way better, is because it has side airflow...not bottom. Even with this "drawback" it's flavor is still on par with the Dvarw.

    I had the same question when I compared my 6ml Dvarw chimney to the short Lethal RTA. I think the chamber bell itself plays a part in RTAs, and probably in RDTAs too.

    For me, I need the draw to be as good as the flavour. If the airflow is too restricted, or just vapes wrong then it's ditched.

    It took me a day or so to adjust to the smooth airflow of the Dvarw with a 4mm id insert, and it was the same with the Axial RDA. But now they both set my benchmark for my preferred draw. And for flavour.

    That's why the Lethal RTA impressed me - it's a different draw again, but I love it.

    On top of flavour and the draw, if an atty has both of them and is a PITA to maintain then I ditch it in favour of my favourites.

    I'm convinced some tanks just makes better flavor than others. Yeah you can tweak it to make the best flavor that specific tank can, but it still can be pale against another tank's flavor.
    What i'm on about, is why it makes better flavor than the other one. It has to be about it's design...and that becks the question. What element/s of it's design causes it to make the better flavor?

    I honestly think all of that yummy flavour is in the Name of the tank;)
    And with a marvelous name such as the Brunhilde your bound to get a flavour bangin' beauty:wub:
