not sure if this will help but i have just been using RBAs for exactly a month so you can say i'm still a newbie (hell i've only jumped on the vv/vw bandwagon this past february). i started with the aga-t+ and i'm letting you know right now, it's not the easiest to set up for newbies (hot spots galore, no flavor, dry hits, etc.). it's very how should i say... unforgiving. HOWEVER, it's the best one for newbies to hone their wick/coil making skills IMO. it took me a week to get it to where i want it to be (flavor/vapor, wicking wise, hot spot prevention, etc.). all the things that i learned from using the aga-t, i believe, is really invaluable.

i received my RSST yesterday and it's REALLY good... i would actually recommend the RSST over the aga-t for beginners, but i guess at the same time, i would also recommend the aga t first just so you get the needed experience of creating a proper set up.

another thing, i think the RSST is version 1 so what i'm really trying to say i guess is go with the aga line first to hone your skills.

for dripping... hands down get the IGO L. it's that good.

I personally started with a Phoenix because I picked it up for $10. Been loving it, but it's a pain to drip while driving. I have been eye-balling the Vision Eternity solely for the use of ego-t style containers for driving, and the ability to still be able to drip at home. In my opinion, it is the best of both worlds. Unfortunately, I can't vouch for performance because the only rba I have used is my Phoenix.

The one rba that I am really thinking of getting, even though it may be abit of work getting used to, but from the videos I seen, and how it looks to perform and what it does I am leaning towards a Terminator-C. I like the set up of the terminator/oddy and think it would meet with my use/needs/wants. Only issue that I see with it is... well its (for me anyways) not in the cheap price range. Tossing 65ish dollars, plus shipping (I am in Canada so add atleast 10 more if not more just for shipping) and its a 75 dollar plus item which is a fair bit of cash compared to what my nova cost, and what the cost for say an aga-t or igo-L cost.

But with how the build looks, the setup of it, and the way it seems to work/perform it is the one thing that I think for myself would be a perfect fit. If anyone hears of, or knows of a cheaper place to buy (with shipping to Canada included) please do let me know... unless of course I have missed something with what I have looked up in regards to it and there are some major issues with the terminator-c... since the terminator and oddy is the only ones I have seen vids on, but assume the terminator-c is just a terminator with the clear tank.

Thanks agian for all the input!
