Hello and welcome back to another review. Today we have the Vapefly Brunhilde 1o3 R(D)TA sent to me by Joyi over at Sourcemore. Even though this is labeled an rta, it's bottom fed via stainless steel cables which to me, would indicate it's an RDTA. The 1o3 is their third installment of the Brunhilde line of atomizers and incorporates some innovations that I haven't seen before which is always great to see.
If you've purchased a Vapefly product in the past, your expectations are probably pretty high like it is for me. The machining is top notch and I'm a huge fan of their style and aesthetics. With that in mind, there are a few considerations that I wouldn't necessarily consider cons, but definitely things to factor in if you're looking to purchase this atomizer. If you're a fan of versatility and/or you like to tinker, then you'll probably enjoy this RDTA even more. As always, I will conduct this review in a fair and honest manner.
Without further ado, let's get into it.

- COLOR OPTIONS -
- IN THE BOX -
- SPECS -
Diameter: 25.2 mm
Height: 69.9 mm
Drip Tip: 810
Coil Configurations: Single, Dual Coils, & Quad Coil
Capacity: 7 mL
- AIRFLOW OPTIONS -
There are tons of airflow options with this atomizer. Instead of the posts being open in the center, an interchangeable airflow insert can be used to direct airflow onto the coils directly via the insert. You can also twist the airflow ring to close off the airflow brought into the insert if you want to cut down the airflow to a Restricted Direct Lung (RDL) type vape.
- COIL CONFIGURATIONS -
This deck is intended for single and dual coil builds via a rubber insert that comes with the kit to close off one side if you so choose. Later in the review, you'll see that this deck is large enough to accommodate a quad coil build, but the airflow becomes tricky. More on that below.
- REFILLING -
One of my biggest gripes with both the MTL and DL Brunhildes in the past was the refill hole. They've opened up the refill hole and changed it to a spring-loaded system that still comes with its flaws, but fits a Chubby Gorilla bottle nozzle very easily.
- WICK FEEDING -
Out of the box, 4 of the 6 stainless steel wires will be installed with two Allen screws plugging the middle hole on each side. This has become fairly standard for RDTAs with larger tanks like the Wotofo Profile 1.5, Vandy Vape Mato, ThunderHead Creations Artemis, and the Hellvape Helheim S to name a few. If you find the wicking to be insufficient, you can remove the two Allen screws and install two additional stainless steel wires to provide more juice to the wicks.

- CUSTOMER FEEDBACK -
Like the upgrade made to the enlarged spring-loaded refill hole as I mentioned before, Vapefly continues to listen to customer feedback and find ways to improve their already well-made atomizers.
