Study Study Study...rta's...When I 1st got my TopTank Mini and saw just how small that "Deck" was I knew there wasn't much chance I'd ever use it...In an emergency if push came to shove I guess I could but looking at it made it seem like work...I'm a Retired Man Of Leisure & I Like Easy !!!...So, being a MTL'er I've been considering several options...Doggy Styled, kayfun, Kabuki and another newer one Siren but now that innokin is going to be releasing those new tanks I think I'll just wait and see...@Two_Bears requested: Single Coil, Easy To Build, Flavor and Easy To Build...I concur and I'd like to add: Top Fill, Great Flavor, Easy To Build, Single Coil and Easy To Build...I think I'll wait for a bit and see what Innokin comes up with...:D:D:D

???...How many extra "Decks" to you keep pre-built or do you just keep extra coils ready to go and do you ever pre-wick your coils ???...When I start scheming and planning my head hurts...I think I'll go have lunch...:w00t:

...And As Usual Thank You For Any And All Opinions...Trig
...Hope You're Feel'in Better Anna !!!
You might also consider the Berzerker, from all I've read, very good MTL tank. The Siren is a very good one, just keep in mind to fill the wick channels otherwise it is leak city.

The SXK Kayfun V5 is the one that's on the top of my list...
It’s a good tank, for me anyway. After I was using bellcap frankenkayfuns and the doggy for awhile it was too airy for me, even at the lowest setting, but I got used to it again. I needed glass for a banana cream flavored juice. Some people don’t like the way you have to tuck the wicktails into little wells but I don’t have any problems with it. I have 3 of them, but only one up and running.

New house fun - bad dishwasher turned my kitchen into a tsunami site this morning, first time turning it on. I’m guessing the house maintenance person won’t be as easy to get out here as the guys on site everyday at the apartment.

That's one of the few downfalls of home ownership...no landlord to call!

Thanks Much...And I'll give the Berserker a look...The Deck on the Siren appears pretty clean & simple but they are a little pricey...I'm gon'a wait on the Innokin but it's nice to know there are good choices !!!

And...RainSong...It is true that a New House will always find a way to lighten the Ol' Wallet here and there...One of the privileges of home ownership...And it's always money well spent...Just don't make the mistake of chasing down repairs on Old Appliances...By the time you're done it's usually cheaper and better to buy new ones...Just Food For Thought and I do so enjoy spending other people money....KitchenAid makes beautiful Dishwashers !!!
EDIT: I too thought you bought...!!!

My husband had the privilege of being landlord help to 3 houses until the Parent left, fortunately my mom is awful at home maintenance, it usually took me longer to convince her a) it needs to be fixed b) Mom, it won't be expensive c) No, he won't mind doing it! That part would take a few months, and then usually depending on the state of the repair at that point it would either take the husband an hour or days to fix it.... I don't mind "owning" one home any more, LOL, which is surprisingly functional at the moment.... Except for the packrat. :)

I have used both doggy style (both SXK & SJMY version.

super easy to build. holds 3 ml eJuice.

I was not satisfied with the flavor. Thats why I am still using my Kompact Kayfun.

Kayfun has better flavor IMHO. Trapping leads under the tiny screws is a problem due to my messed up left hand. but @ToolmanTexas gave me a link to switch to deck screws with larger heads. last time I built my Kayfun trapping leads was much easier. trapped leads on second try. much better than the 10-15 tries to trap the leads.

the kabuki is not an RTA. You will have to buy aspire nautilus coil heads for that.

I am interested in the Siren 2 but haven't seen it yet.

Haven't seen you for a few days, and was getting concerned.

Glad you're safe. Hope your home is too.

Thanks...Always learning...I thought there was a buildable deck for the Kabuki...And with me it's the lack of dexterity in my hands plus my eyes aren't getting any younger...I am going to wait and see on the Innokin...

There is one! If you found the thers too small, this one is microscopic by comparison.

For the past week or so, the Doggy has been my favorite RTA. Its simple to build and has great flavor. It gets warm very quickly though and bottom fill is a bummer. Sitting on a istick pico it is a tiny package. That and the Vika Fantasy tank (Nautilus coils) are my EDCs. I put the Vika on my Jac usually, sometimes I switch the swap them around.
I have one juice that doesn't taste "right" in anything but a kayfun. Its used as my breakfast vape.

TB...Regarding the Siren 2...I just got an email from MFS this morning...Sniff'in for my Doe-Ra-Me $$$ :D
Siren V2 22mm GTA Tank by Digiflavor
Eyyy...$32 for a tank is rich for my budget...I do so like my $10 T22's !!!...:lol:...Like the look of the deck...There's something about it that makes it "Appear" easier...But what do I know...Just a feeling about its look...I did give a quick look at FT and they want $38...

EDIT: Hmmm...FT Coupon @ Check-Out takes'em down to $25ish...

Oh My Goodness Gracious Me !!!...I guess there are at least 5 things somebody could "Disagree" with...But I can't figure out which one !!!...Drat !!! :lol:
