On my 2K18, the air control can be closed pretty tight. It works great for me. It's practically 100% closed. I can't vape it all the way closed.

That great. But from my exp when you just tighten the airflow but not the hole on the deck here what happened: the air came with a little pressure (since the hole are small) and when it travel and reach the deck the pressure is not so great so it will heat the coil weak. Its already known that with the 1 ohm ++ the heat is ramp rather slow and when it blow with a weak air pressure it wont enough to make a proper MTL style. Its a diffrent situation with realy tight hole on deck (like berserker, 0.8mm airslot dvarw etc) even if you using smallest airflow on afc then when the air reach a airflow on deck it will boost the pressure and make even a small airhole pin but its a good pressure enough to blow the center coil and colling the coil for proper MTL. Thats why there is varian air option on the slot for true MTL style. Thats only my opinon.
I just did the pin+airhole block switcheroo between V1 (2k16) and V2 (2k18) and they are identical apart from the hole size.
Another unmodified 2k18 is already in service but I'm not able to make any exact flavour comparisons with the SXK 2k16 since I'm using different wire and juice. The AFC ring moves smoothly in both V2s with just the right amount of resistance. All the magic happens within the last 1-2 mm when AFC is nearly closed. More open than that and it's restricted DL territory.
Size wise the V2 is practically identical to Dwarv V2 3.5ml kit (both are flat tops too).
Compared to the Doggystyle V1 it looks only marginally (1mm?) taller, but the V1 looks more slender with its top ring.
The V2's drip tip well seems identical to V1's in terms of fit and depth, but being a flat top I feel slightly taller drip tips work better with it.
The removable top cap isn't threaded but held in place by a healthy o-ring. Still my first instinct has been to try twisting it...
Usually trying out a new tank involves some level of surprise, but apart from the top fill design the 2k18 is practically identical to Doggystyle V1 except it's probably closer to the SMJY version than the tighter SXK. Swap in the pin+airhole block from the older SXK and I'd expect them to be the same.
Wow there is nothing some lock mechanism on top cap? Just plug in? That will be ridiculous in my bag...I just did the pin+airhole block switcheroo between V1 (2k16) and V2 (2k18) and they are identical apart from the hole size.

That's a valid concern I didn't even realize since the top cap is so solid on mine that I'd be more concerned that some people might struggle getting it off. Pushing the gnurling upwards with thumb works for me.
If the o-ring breaks, or even if one presses the top cap down carelessly, it could come off uninvited.
That said, the top cap sits very sturdily on the ones I've got and I wouldn't hesitate keeping them in the bag. Like with the 2k16s, I've seen no signs of seepage of any kind.
The top cap is held firmly in place and I wouldn't worry about it coming off. I actually have some trouble removing it. Mine works just as well as the 2K16.
Got mine today from 3fvape, like can already get colored tanks for it, not that you can tell the blue tank is blue when filled with juice.
Not a fan of the juice control, relying on the drip tip being tight enough for it to turn, and is a bit tricky to see when it is open or closed, only just got it up and running, so too early to say if it’s a winner or not.
Looks amazing on your colossal - and I agree about the juice control. Here's my thoughts from the original doggy thread
Here's my 2k18 report:
A tad quieter? than the 2018. Airflow is awesome - same as sjmy version. Flavour is awesome - same as 2k16
No leaking. Jfc works by using the drip tip to twist the chamber. Seems to work well. I top filled and had no gurgling whatsoever.
Found wicking easier, you have no choice but to poke the tails into the wicking channel - there's nowhere else they can go. This was awesome for someone who is ocd about tail positioning
Here's the deck wicked and ready to go:
Some comparison pics - 2k18 on left, 2k16 on right:
I do prefer the look of the original doggy - just love the clean lines of the tank and how simple and classic it looks. There's also a slight height difference.
Time will tell on which version gets the most use

Got my 2k18 Doggy the other day, through in standard build
2.5mm Nicrohome 80 28/29 gauge. 1.4 ohms, muji cotton wick with my plum menthol juice running at 15.5w and this thing is amazing.
Flavor spot on, juice control works well no leaking, very happy.
Only think I would love is if they make a slightly bigger one to get 5/6 ml juice then i would be at peace in my vaping world and would never need to use anything else.

Any Clear replacement tanks for these? The frosted ones look a little clearer with liquid in them but it's not enough.
Had a hunt through fasttech yesterday, no clear ones yet. Found some different versions thoughthough. Not sure who the manufacturer is:
Doggystyle 2K18 V2 Styled RTA - Gold (Acrylic tank)
Doggystyle 2K18 V2 Styled RTA - Silver (Acrylic tank)
Doggystyle 2K18 V2 Styled RTA - Black (Acrylic tank)
Rewicked this morning. No leaking through the airflow hole and no gurgling
How much space is everyone keeping between the air hole and coil? I'm

Thanks for all the info on this puppy @AngeNZ, specially the comparison pics
My SXK 2k18 arrived, but I cant change the deck its so tight. I hear people can switch 2k16 airhole pin with 2k18. But after I screw 510 pin the deck is still tight like glued on the insulator. Any help here?

The short curved drip tip is the innokin zenith tank spare drip tip, taller drip tip is from the innokin t20s tank. Replacement here:
Prism T20S Tank Drip Tip
The Aspire Nautilus 2 drip tip is pretty similar to the innokin t20s drip tip.
