I look forward to seeing how it fairs for you. Post some pix when you're ready. And ask away with any questions. We're happy to help
I would not, in any way shape or form; recommend the Intake as a MTL device. It's very much a restrictive DL tank.Intake is mean only for restrictive MTL vaping, even with its AFC fully open, you can't use it for DL nor big airflow vaping. Have you tried GeekVape Ammit MTL? It is similar to Intake, who knows, you might like it more than Intake... Btw, installing a coil by the Intake's clamp like posts is not easy, at least not for beginners. That kind of posts:

seems to suit an octopus rather than human (with only 2 limited hands)
OBS Engine Nano can have real big airflow if you open the AFC fully, but its airflow coverage and its deck design (posts and juice holes positions) are mean for 3mm or smaller coil.
Original Zeus can be used for both MTL or DL with great flavor.
Thanks for the link, unfortunately, I don't use double coils... sigh!
Is there a single coil RBA section?
I haven't used RBA decks in quite some time but I know that Smok has more RBAs than a car has liver pills. Maybe @Shawn Hoefer has an answer for you?Thanks for the link, unfortunately, I don't use double coils... sigh!

An electronics background will serve you well as a vaper. Which one did you settle on?I'm looking forward to seeing how it fairs for me too
I have a good electronics background so hopefully I'll be right
No doubt a little bit of help will be needed though.
Have to wait for Fasttech to deliver before I get started, hopefully soon

I'm sorry. I meant which RTA did you order? Basic understanding of electronics is all you'll need. Unless, of course, you end up designing your own boardNothing has ever been settled on, only a few courses to my name.
It's always been a strong hobby.

The same applies to the OG Zeus... direct lung only.
There's a lot more to decent MTL than cutting air down at the intake. It's gotta be restricted at the coil, too.

Maybe an engineer with training in air velocity can explain better than I but from personal experience I can attest to the fact that a designated RTA for MTL performs better than an RTA with just the AF closed down and vice versa. Opening up the AF on a MTL doesn't turn it into a lung hitter.

I can only attest to the Augvape Merlin as I have worn mine out from constant use. I never even tried to use the AF adapters because I wasn't looking for a MTL RTA but it gives a great open hit with a big coil. I had a 4mm ID on there once. I don't take what all users say as the bible. I'm tired of hearing people complain that the KF5 is an awful MTL. Svoemesto never said it was a MTL RTA. They advertised it as DL/restricted lung. I guess the Kayfun name means MTL to all those who hear it but in this case it wasn't so.There are 2 big threads in this forum, one is for the Augvape Merlin RTA and the other one for the original Zeus.
Augvape Merlin has 2 adapters to control the size of bottom airflow hole. Go there and you will find many MTL vapers do not even bother to use the adapters at all.
Go to the Zeus thread and listen to those who has great MTL, even restrictive MTL experience with single coil Zeus.
If Intake and Ammit MTL is not for MTL, I don't know what their purpose then... Man, restrictive DL... it is the most bs phase I have ever heard to describe the purpose of Intake... May be Mike has inhale deeply too often in his Youtube reviews...
I respectfully disagree. The Intake is a bit restrictive but is meant as a DTL RTA. It is as airy as my OBS Engine Nano, to the best of my memory. I haven't used that tank in quite some time. The trick is installing the coil at the right position and wicking it properly. I am getting enough AF that I have to close down the AFC about halfway. I also find it very, very easy to install the coil. Do you have one?

Engine, not Engine Nano? Because the Nano is a single coil and might be easier for a first build. We're here if you need help. Watching build tutorials will help, as well. Especially for the wicking method. Lol, "turn the key"LOL. I'm going with the OBS Engine.
It sounds like I'll get through quick with a name like that, turn the key and off she goes

Yes, user opinions might not be convincing enough, I can understand that.
How about an analog, what if someone tell you, applying a fix restrictive control to the fuel injection at the engine will give you a better slow drive experience than slowing your car down by releasing your foot a bit from the paddle? Will you take that?
