I think I'm on vape Cloud 9... and feeling a little vape over dosed as well... :vapor:

Pretty new to the vape world quit smoking and started vaping 3 months ago. Just got into the world of mech mods and RBA/RDA (the Hcigar Mega is my first RDA).

First off, the Nemesis, simple, easy to use, 3 small magnets in the firing button and your set (it will stand on end with the kayfun and won't fire but I still use the locking ring). This mod I think should be every ones first mechanical mod, the simplicity and function are excellent and a good Hcigar clone can be had very inexpensively. Attractive, and tons of options available for it!

Hcigar Kayfun 3.1 Plus - I tried the Tobeco and Ehpro and they had tight draw with little airflow or airflow control, the Hcigar so much better, the airflow is excellent and very adjustable, the threads smooth, machining excellent, top filling and building a breeze. No hassles (and I have 3 of them!). Sold off the Tobeco and Ehpro's for 1/2 what I paid... I built a 28ga, 1.4 ohm coil for it and the vape is warm, smooth, dense with excellent flavor. I'm conservative and with this build have had no issues, just be sure to get your cotton wick setup correctly to avoid issues. I also found I just change the wick/cotton every time I rinse and refill just keeps the tank cleaner and no burnt flavors or discoloring your e juice that way.

Tobeco Hades Clone, it's big, the battery is big, the button is big and it's a love hate relationship with this one, the first few days I hated it, put the magnets in and the button was stiff and squeaked when you turned it. The fit, finish, pin setup, the way the atty's sit on it are all great. So the first few days I couldn't get use to the button, kept changing positions of my hand on it, kept thinking it needed grip tape or something, and just was a bit frustrated with it. 2nd day started getting use to it and it seems like the firing button broke in a little and became easier (or the workout built up the muscles in my hand). Never dull polished the button and lock ring setup got rid of the squeaks and made the button a bit smoother. Now I'm really liking the mod a lot! Hit's well with the MNKE 26650 battery and lasts for a good 12 hours of daily vaping on a kayfun. (have heard the sony battery hits better/longer initially but lasts about 1/3 less vape time.

The Hcigar MEGA 28mm RDA Atty! Bam, this thing is huge, 5 posts, large deep drip well, dual air holes or single hole airflow adjustments, excellent finish, logo, top setup. Just really awesome. Again I'm conservative just wanted a nice dense, warm cloud that was more than a Kayfun but not over the top. You can do a quad coil crazy low sub ohm build but that's not for me. I'm simple. Used 28ga wire, built two 1.8 ohm coils just like I would a kayfun and mounted them on the posts in the Mega which brought it to .8 ohms. Used cotton wick through the coils wrapped nicely inside the atty and posts. (my first build). Results where more than I expected! The first few hits are a bit cool due to the high ohm on the coils but after a few hits the atty warms up nicely as well as the vape without getting crazy hot. It's perfect, may do my 2nd build at .5 - .7 ohm. The vape cloud is CRAZY, 2x + over my kayfun setups and I went overboard in my testing and now feel a bit weezy like I don't think I can vape anymore for the rest of the day (and I use zero nic too). Whew. The only Con I can find on the Hcigar Mega is the posts do not have the hole in them and you have to attach the coils under the screw post heads... Building would be easier with the holes in the posts...

The new Tobh 26650 mod Atty looks like it will be a real winner too but not so sure I need two big RDA's!

Personally I don't get it but I've never used one of the new ginormous mods. the bests vapes I've had have almost always come from toppers with either small chambers or some sort of reduction chamber. The idea of a 28mm topper makes me wonder if you may as well just leave the cap off, wet the wicks, fire it and try to inhale as much vapor as you can.

Like I said, never tried it so have no experience at all. Just seems counterintuitive. So, what is the real life experience like? Do tell.

I have a Hades clone from Fasttech. The hit is as good in everyway as any I ever had. Chain vapping, it last me all day and all evening. Never came close to this with any of my 18650's and it is still a whole lot lighter than my VTR, ( which I still love).

I never tried dripping. I have a very busy schedule and can't STOP the world as I drip.
