Just received my Igo-L from FT this weekend and I spun it up today. it's hitting like a train with a dual coil at .9 to 1 ohm.
It comes with a great drip tip and pre-coiled in a dual config, which came in at 1.5 ohms. That said, I thought the coil wrap was sloppy and didn't glow evenly, so I removed the coil and wick, pulled one loop out of each coil and put them back on. Now hits around .9 ohms.
There's only a single air hole, so far, so its in front of only one of the coils, but so far, its hitting hard with lots of vapor and flavor.
I'm at 6mg nic and it feels like 24mg. So far, its my best RDA, with a large drip-well, plenty of wick in dual mode for lots of drops, and the most versatile. In addition, its stainless steel and well built.

That I-Atty clone from Fasttech also looks promising...if you are looking to pick up a genesis style atomizer. The RSST is a really good one for people that are new to rebuilding RBAs.

From what you said you were thinking of buying however, it looks like you are looking to start with some RDAs. Look at the reviews. I think you will find decent reviews on the ones that have been there for a while.

The Trident clone or Ithaka clone seems to be the best ones they have. People are saying the Trident clone might be from RH, which explains the $17 price. The Ithaka clone is said to be done by Tobecco. Even so their Oddy clone was crap, the Ithaka is said to be and exact match with the Hercules RBA, except that it has a polish finish instead of brushed. All parts are interchangeable between the 2.

All the other clones they have are okay for the $6-$9. It won't hurt your pocket giving them a try. I'm weary about the I-atty, being that it's part brass and the tank is plastic. I'd rather spend another $8 and get the RSST.

i appreciate the insight on the trident, ithaka, and oddy.

regarding the iAtty, there was a big debate but it ended up being glass. a really cheap & thin glass, but the end result was indeed glass. i bought one from another vendor because im curious. i wont be broken hearted if its crap, but i got it for $13 shipped so i said why the f not. i had a personal coupon code with a vendor to use anyway so $13 shipped was hard to resist. especially seeign how its 21mm and i have a 21mm mod.

by the way, what do you think of the immortalizer clone- the one with the ribbon wire posts?

.......by the way, what do you think of the immortalizer clone- the one with the ribbon wire posts?

That's the one I'm eyeballing. I really like the fact that the air goes through the channels at the bottom of the deck and comes up through two air holes under the coil. With the slotted wire connection, round wire would be just as easy. Using it here at home, I probably wouldn't even bother with putting the outer sleeve on, although I can see were it might make it more leak proof.
