Hey guys! I've been out of the loop for a while in the vaping gear world, and one of the newer rda's that caught my eyes was the IGO TIBET. I'm ashamed to say I've never really gotten excited about alot of Youde/IGO products, but this one looks really interesting, and I'll say it; just straight up cool in my opinion :p. The only review I've found is in Spanish :lol:, luckily I'm about as fluent as a 6 year old in Español, so I got the main ideas and saw how it performs anyway.

It reminds me of the Cerberus 26650 (the Tibet is also 28.5mm, and that's why I'm particularly interested), only with some factors that I would've changed, fixed! Like bigger airflow (or at least easily modified bigger), the posts are arranged so the coils are more toward the center (leaving it wide open for the vapor), not to mention it looks easier to build on. It's also decently priced at around $30 (some places have it for $40 shipped).

Youde IGO-W15 Tibet 26650 Drip Atomizer with Airflow Control

I like the looks of it, it's a unique tri-coil design (which I haven't tried yet personally), super deep drip well, easy build configuration with one hole per leg, frankly a pretty large combined airflow amount, which is adjustable if you don't want to blow clouds. It looks like your can do some really interesting builds in this thing too, the way the coils are all supposed to meet in the middle could make for a different vape than most are used to, you could also wick it with one long piece.

So what do you guys think about this dripper? Has anybody owned this, or at least heard any reviews? Any feedback would be very welcome!
:vapor:Vape shameless y'all!:vapor:

It is a nice looking unit. As someone that has never owned an RDA and as such has never made a coil, do you builders think this would be relatively painless for a rookie to build on?

Oh well welcome to the club! :p No I wouldn't say this would be the easiest to start with, although if you really like it I don't think it would an absolute headache or anything, relatively painless yeah :D.

This thing can only be in 3-coil or single coil mode just to let you know, if you ever wanted to try out dual coil builds then you wouldn't be able to shut off the airflow with this guy. I'd suggest getting one that'll be super easy, and let you try a variety of different builds just so you can get an idea of what you want in an RDA the first try.

I think drippers with a dual positive center post ("T-post") are perfect for those just getting into building, because they're super easy (each coil leg gets it's own spot), really capable for if you want to start going crazy with quad-coil builds :p, and there's alot of them that are affordable/have great clones.

The plume veil is a new one that's been popular recently, the Asmodus is a 26650 dripper (good for if you have big hands like me, this ones a personal favorite), the brass monkee is really affordable even for the authentic (I've owned this one too, and it's probably the best/easiest if you want to try it out). Any of those three are incredibly user friendly, and amazing atty's in general, I think you'd like the brass monkee since it comes with adjustable airflow and a spare top cap if you want to try drilling your own :D.

Other than those, I think the TOBH atty is the last one I'd suggest, it's my #1 favorite at the moment and it's also very user friendly. All of the clones I've had have all been good too, you can't go wrong with the Tobh! (The airflow may be bigger than your used too, although it's adjustable.) Hope this helps brother, vape on!

I would definitely go with a three post design. This is not a good RDA for a beginner to rebuilding.

Hey Now!

Start with an original IGO-W or W4 (same atty; diff top cap only). 3 posts. Well-made and you can find one for like $15 max (less on eBay) e.g. clone prices.

I bought the IGO-W15 less than a month ago and from all my dripping atomizers I think this is the best I ever tried. It is my favorite by far. A lot of air flow and the coils can get air 360 degrees and it holds quite a lot of juice. I built it yesterday at 0.25 ohms using japanese cotton(for the first time) and it is awesome. I just can't put it down. For the first time since I started vaping I can vape without dripping for 30 minutes or so. I'm not sure if is coz of the tank or the cotton but the taste is killer sweet.
I would recomend the IGO-W15 to any serious dripper. I know is bulky but with a 26650 type of mod is great. I will try to post pictures with my build.
