I just realized, I think I'm using the term "rba" incorrectly. I'm meaning a deck that's meant to be rebuilt, and I think what rba actually means is a rebuildable insertable coil head. I'm soooo confused. Anyway, I'm looking for a tank (or six) that does NOT take insertable coil heads. Whatever that's called. o_O

Thanks. Rebuildable Tank Atomizer. :) And RBA is just for the rebuildable insert types? I thought it used to refer to the decks also, way back a whole year ago. Hey, my one-year anniversary is coming up in just a couple more weeks! YAY! :D

That Pico is too small. Plus I don't like the looks of that cap thing that goes on the battery. I have a hard time getting the cap on my Kanger Kbox when I change the battery. Remember, no thumbs... :( I'm sure it would be very easy for most people, though.

The Serpent looks nice, but it's only 3ml and it's $30. I haven't checked if Fasttech has it yet, maybe it would be less through them. Since it's a mini, I'm assuming there's a full sized one? I might be more interested in a larger tank, the way I go through juice. ;) These iSubs are supposedly 3.8ml (I think it's only 3.5) and that's about as small as I'd want to go. My Aromamizer is 6ml, and that's NICE.

I don't think you knew me when I first joined ECF, but if you could have heard me back then as opposed to now, you'd laugh yourself into a hernia. I was NEVER NO HOW NO WAY gonna use one of those "two way radio" mods, that was absolutely ridiculous! My little EVODs were perfect and that was all I'd ever need. And now all I have are "two way radios." And back then, I was NEVER NO HOW NO WAY EVER going to learn how to build coils because that was TOO HARD! ROFL! And now look at me, shopping exclusively for RTAs. It's actually pretty damn funny! :lol::lol::lol: Oh, and when I used the EVODs with the 1.6ml tanks (which would last me all day and part of the next, by the way), I figured juice would be so cheap because a 30ml bottle would last me about a month. :rolleyes: How times change... ;)

The pico is actually MUCH easier to put the battery in than the original kbox!! It is comparable to putting a small lid on a small jar.

The serpent is a good RTA. There is a trick to filling it so it doesn't leak (watch Todd's YouTube video), also it takes a bit of practice to wick it right, and to get the coil installed (Mike Vapes video has an easy trick for that). It does single coil only so you might like it.

The griffin is OK but the wicking can be fussy, just pushed slightly into the slots, nope, been there done that bs, it has to be wicked like an RDA, as in tuck it under onto the bottom of the deck, job done. In saying that the Serpent has to be the easiest deck to build on, so so simple.
I dunno what to suggest Lannie, got to wave the white flag.

This is another one I was thinking of:

$12.87 SXK Nebula Wine Tank RTA Rebuildable Tank Atomizer - authentic / 5ml / stainless steel + glass / 22mm dia. at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping

I don't know anything about that one except someone on another thread suggested it for someone else who was having problems with their leaky Subtank Mini. ;) I guess they can ALL leak under certain circumstances, eh?
Lannie! Vaporbeast has the full sized Serpent RTA for 19.99 on Deal of the day!
That is where I got lots of my equipment, a great place.

Usually, all I have to do after filling it is to blow through the drip tip (into a paper towel or something, 'cuz a LOT of juice blows out).

When you blow out the juice, try keeping the base and paper towel UP. Don't blow into it facing down.

What, you're GIVING UP? ROFL! I thought you were more persistent than that! :lol: What about a BIG Serpent? Same deck and wicking?

Thank you! I'll try it that way and see if it helps. :)

Robert, I forgot to quote your post... is that for today only? I'd better get over there, huh? Well, I'd better ask Rich to get over there, I mean.

Never give up on you Lannie, you could certainly use the bigger one but I love my flavors so 3ml in the Serpent mini doesn't bother me, actually it's my annoyance with the supreme, I'm vaping the same flavor too long.
As for the Pico, Emma's friend has one and it's not to small, she said if you fire using you thumb, your finger rests on top of the battery cap and it becomes very comfortable to use. I'm going to theme mine a bit, it should be great to put in your pocket and have with you out and about....and it's cheap.
Pokemom is right about those little tips for the Serpent, never had a problem with it...
@Fuzzy Thunderbear How are you keeping, not spoke to you for a while, hope your well.
