    So I must not know what I am talking about saying they are all single battery. Not the first time I did not know what I was talking about.
    I stand corrected
    Were they talking about a dual battery SbS or just a dual battery mod? I'm not aware of any dual battery SbS mods, but I've only started collecting a few years ago.

    Somewhere between here and there
    I only have a couple of dot tanks (Pioneer dot rba and a dotshell) and decided to probably stop there.
    vaping rdl I don't get a really satisfying vape from either - with similar builds, af settings and at the same wattage as my fav boro setups.
    I prefer the boro format and like you say, one less rabbit hole to go down.
    I’m thinking about just putting the bishop dot tank on the classifieds to sell as new in the box and use that money to buy the boro version I thought I was buying.

    Thank you Z! I did not think there were any dual SBS's. This is what always stopped me from longing for one. They must not have been talking about SBS's.
    I feel better now

    I mean, now that the idea has been sprung, a dual 18650 SbS would be pretty cool, lol. It sort of defeats the purpose of what a SbS mod is supposed to do, but so is putting low-pro tires on a truck, Jeep, or SUV. :thumbs:

    yeah I get it. They are made to be compact. I do not like compact unless I am in the hospital trying to stealth vape.

    Good evening ladies & gentlemans,

    Nope, but I have done a lot of research on the Kumo...... That also seems like another good one........ Nowadays it is becoming more difficult to choose between atomizers as lots of them are good.....
    It is the wicking system that is unique to Kumo & Cabeo, which makes them stand out from everything else.
    Kumo is a smaller Cabeo, but with an airflow system very similar to Steampipe's Corona, I also have Corona in the mtl version.
    Corona is a particularly good in terms of airflow, very smooth vape, so I can well understand why Kumo is so popular.

    Good morning shiny people. I may try putting a build in the bishop later and put it in my sxmini. I thought about buying a different mod that uses the dot tanks but not sure I want to go down that rabbit hole as I’ve already bought so much boro stuff.
    I only have one good dot atty, 2 mods though, and I bought another one today.
    We are masters at planning!!

    In rdl, I would hardly have bought dot. Then it must have been a very special atty who only existed for dot.

    I vote for a dual 21700 sbs mech, dressed with a Flash-e-Vapor dD

    Thanks for the info. So I am already fiddling with coils and diy e-juice and I really don't wan't to go into modding the hardware and software alike, nor have the skills time or equipment.

    It saves me more coin for a better mod or atomizers! Tough the design is absolutely beautiful and the capability of taking 18560 batteries up to 21700 leaves me in awe, still it isnt enough to outweigh the problems at that price range.

    Thank you!
    Take a peek at the Steam Crave Hadron Lite if you're interested in another 21700 SbS mod. Not as fancy looking, but a great alternative functionality-wise.

    Good Morning wonderful people........ @hittman , I can't wait until I get the Meson but I will tell you what I have done that will suffice until I get my hands on the Meson.....

    As you know, I am desiring to start vaping at lower wattage to conserve battery power and juice. The problem has been that all my atomizers are large dual coilers that need lots of wattage.... One of my RDAs is "supposedly" friendly for single coil use as well as dual coil use. I had tried that little trick of placing a single coil in it in the past but when running a single coil there becomes too much air space in the chamber and the flavor drastically decreases.... Let's face it, that particular RDA (RATH) is designed mainly for dual coil usage. It is not like the Nitrous RDA that comes with changeable chambers for single coil use....

    So last night I spun my own clapton out of 2 X 28g Kanthal wires wrapped in 32g kanthal... Only this time I made a large diameter coil in order to help take up some of the empty space in the chamber The single coil I made was 5mm in diameter..... and the resistance is 0.6 ohm.....

    I am finally able to vape off of that Rath RDA at a mere 40 watts and still have excellent flavor. The secret to the success was in the large diameter coil taking up the empty space... I could never do that before with a 2.5 or 3mm single coil in that RDA.... Single coils would work in it before but I always had to have the wattage at 60 watts and above before I got good flavor.....

    I would like to operate at 30 watts which would conserve even more battery power than 40 watts. I tried my 5mm coil at 30 watts and it works but the flavor is only about half as strong as at 40 watts.... But I am satisfied for now because 40 watts will conserve a lot more battery power than the 70 to 100 watts that I usually operate at...... When I get the Meson then I will be able to operate closer to 30 watts. Anyway, this will do me for the time being.

    When I reviewed the Recurve 2 rda it came with two different caps depending on if you were running single or dual coil. Also it came with a 5mm coil for running a single in it. I bought a small stash of those 5mm coils to have on hand for it.

    Yeah that is also how the Nitrous RDA is.... it comes with 2 different caps. One cap reduces the chamber for single coil use and the other cap is larger and for dual coil use..... The Rath RDA has no such provision as it is mainly designed for dual coils.... But that 5mm coil I made did the trick because I was never able to reduce my wattage all the way down to 40 watts and still have flavor. So, I basically figured out a way to make that Rath work good with a single coil and at lower wattage...... Anyway, I should be able to go even lower in wattage with the Meson and still have flavor as I believe you said you ran it at @31 watts or so.... That will save me even more battery power and juice :) But for now I am totally satisfied being able to get good flavor off of this Rath RDA at only 40 watts..... It's amazing how much longer my battery charges are now lasting compared to 80 or 90 watts... So until that Meson gets here, I am totally satisfied :)

    In these dotaio days, I have come back to the drawing board, back to my boro aio drawing. Maybe I can come up with a solution during the evening.

    Although the last dotaio was expensive, I'm glad I bought a LE, I think it goes well with the white v1 which I also think was a LE.

    Now that DotMod is out with litE, and Tiffany LE, I'd like to think v2 is coming to an end.
    When v3 arrives, it is rather doubtful whether I will buy the standard colors, will have to wait until the LEs arrive.

    Atty wise, I only have one good atty, DotShell, Mark Todd said DotMobb was the one with the best flavor of them all, I didn't buy when they were available though.
    For me DotShell is not as good as VapeSnail or mob v2.
    When or if Monarchy comes out with a new DotMobb is probably the highest priority for me.
