All I'm saying is, I tried big 3.0 and 3.5
My tank had hard time wicking, I was getting dry hits, cuz I have to ramp up the wattage due to the diameter of the coil, it wasn't just keeping up, I wanted the supreme to hit like the BOREAS
I tried regular
Micro
SS
Clapton
FC all 3.0-3.5 same cotton, even at 70 watts it wasn't keeping up...
I decided to go smaller I'd, to my surprise it's chucking at 80-95 watts no dry hits..
60/40pg right now, the supreme just doesn't wick like the BOREAS, I'm sorry if I kept comparing...

Now you got me wondering what diameter my coils are? I'll have to check, I want to try some builds, but I do know that I like these pre builts so far, be good to have a reference!
Since you have both, which is you preference between the 2 and why? Thanks!

I like BOREAS, I feel like the bigger deck, mor efficient JFC/AFC is the biggest advantage, BOREAS just wicks,no dry hits, easy 150 watts and it can handle it, it's a PITA to fill juice
You have to flip
Open, Flip it back suck!

On the other hand the
Supreme looks a lot nicer,
Smaller build deck,AFC is MEH (noisy)
I think it's over priced
the drip tip sucks
The wicking is not efficient compare to the BOREAS, but if you get it right it's a up there with the BOREAS...
Both tanks have flaws, it all comes down to ur preference... Thanks for asking

Wicking
The BOREAS is not too sensitive, wick it like regular dripper you won't have any issue whereas the supreme you got to get it right or else...

No problem, thanks for replying! Over priced is agreed, I got a Alliance V2, it was in my opinion over priced, you got a lot of parts and combinations you can use, but if you find how you like to vape it all those extra parts sort of collect dust and you got expensive extra's. I still think it's a nice RDA though.
But I did a pre order the Supreme and got it at a decent price, just had to wait forever. I believe you told me about subtank supply? I see they have new equipment in stock fast and at a good price!

If I'm not mistaken the decks on both tanks are identical minus the .5mm difference in size..

    I picked up mine at the local post office last night. While my first build with 26AWG NiFe52 came in to low in resistance, I quick switch to 8 wraps 28AWG NiFe52 pushed my dual coil resistance up to 0.12 ohms which is usable to me.

    Having never owned one before, it was quite the bear to get the Supreme torn down. Then once I had it in as many parts as I thought I could I still did not see the deck - until I pulled it out from the bottom! LOL

    With 2x 8wraps on a machine screw installed and wicked I lubed up all the o-rings, reassembled and filled.

    JFC - this actually seems to work. Once ready I opened er up and witnessed lots of air bubbles finding their way to the top of the tank. No leaks so far.

    AFC - this is rather amazing in my book. Not only does this tank have much more air flow than ANY of my other RTA's but has the unique feature that you can see your coils by simply looking in the AFC holes. Impressive.

    Currently have it mounted on Boxer 350J (dual 18650's) with 30J pushing to 420F. Given the tank capacity it might be a while before I have to refill it and check the JFC's ability to control leaks while refilling.

    An impressive piece of engineering.

    My Supreme works great except air bubbles get stuck in the juice flow holes, so it doesn't feed juice to the bottom as I vape... Anyone else see this happen?
    BURp it!
    Fill it
    Flip it
    Open JC
    FLIP IT BACK
    I was having this issue, I was getting dry hits, according to steam crave, the tank is plug and play, NO SIR, you have to BURP IT LIKE MOST TANKS... let me know

    Guess I'm just lucky...I've had 20 or 30 tanks full of juice through mine and never had to burp it. I've been unimpressed with Steamcrave's QC on the Supreme honestly. I preordered mine and had a wobbly 510 (no it wasn't the issue fixable by swapping o-rings, it was a defect) as well as gouges inside the deck. I WILL say this for them though: they acknowledged the problem and replaced it without asking for the original back so I have spare parts now and the new one works flawlessly.

    I'm using my trusted drip tips from FT, this tank is Over RATED and OVER PRICED..

    Overpriced yes. Not sure on over rated. I enjoy my Supreme and I've tested against the Griffin 25, and I personally prefer the flavor from the Supreme, though it's very close. Highly subjective, other people will have their own opinions. But I 100% agree with over priced. 10.00 or so cheaper would be much easier to deal with.

    I got my SS Aromamizer Supreme for $32 and the Black one for $35 from FastTech with coupon code MAP. I don't think it was overpriced at all. Mine have both been working perfectly. No burping, no leaking, and no dry hits. My favorite tanks atm.

    Cheers,
    Steve

    I've found there's always deals to be found if you look and aren't in a hurry lol

    Anyone know where I can buy the spare o rings pack? Somewhere UK please?

    The ONLY vendor I have seen selling the "spares" is Now Chase for Flavor! - Steam Crave, Aromamizer, Squonk I know that's not in the UK but thought I would leave that here. Of course, the TPD may play a role in this with respect to what UK vendors are willing to sell and remain in business. /sigh
