Got mine from fasttech today.Needed just a simple wash and a bit of lube. threading is pretty good.a spaced single coil at 1.15 ohm with 14 Watts (4 volts). Easy to install a coil and wick. Vaping it with the widest air setting and compare to other GTA style atomizers the draw is more than sxk doggy style and tighter than Ares, Siren V1 and V2. Build chamber seems larger than Doggy and smaller than Ares and both Sirens. Just tested 2 flavors and both were very good. It does take 5ml with such a small size. So far, no complains.

    WOW! After such review I am not going to cancel my order...$20 I paid for this tank will not bankrupt me even if I will not like too tight draw....:)

    Yes can make it really tight, but sounds like can make it pretty loose too with the supplied air block and open both air flows.

    My only concern with this tank is the design of the wicking channels. I have no proof, but I tend to believe that type of design leads to flooding/gurgling (berserker). Would have been better, I think, to make it a "true GTA" style and let the wicks fall freely through the channels.

    At any rate, I'm interested. I have this and Hastur Mini sitting in my cart...undecided if I'll get both, just one, or neither. lol

    After few days of using it, the only con that I have found is, I had it lean horizontal for an hour or so, and it leaked something in range of .5 to 1 ml. Probably not quite pocket friendly.

    It goes fast through juice, but in the other hand, I have tested 6 different juices, all NETs, and all tasted pretty good, so no complains here.

    Shane, I bought it and sadly it's another meh tank for me compared to the Doggy. It was easy enough to build on but I found it hard to get a decent draw I liked from that odd aztec style dual AFC and ultimately the flavour was ok but nothing amazing. The switchable air block on the deck is a neat idea that actually works and you can swap it out without removing your build if you're careful, but fancy schmancy gimics like this mean nothing if the flavour and vape quality is average at best, and sadly that's what I got from it in the end.

    If you haven't tried one yet the Beserker Mini is probably the closest off the shelf "quality of life" tank to the Doggy when it comes to flavour and vape quality IMO. It's harder to bottom fill it though compared to the big Berserker (I still wont trust the top fill), but doable.

    I'm really going to try and stop myself buying new tanks now as my disappointment started with the Ares and continues to this day with all new tanks in between up to this one - they just can't catch the Doggy. The Doggy remains leaps and bounds ahead of the competition for flavour output and vape quality IMO.

    Thanks for the input, Rcon. :)

    I've dismissed the Berserker Mini as I own the original 24mm and, while the vape quality was nice, the flavour and ease of use was lacking. From I read, the mini still suffers from the usability issues (wicking/gurgling). I HAVE been tempted to order one, though, just....just for the driptips LOL. Love them.

    So...looks like I'll remain content with my Doggies. :)

    they have berserker clones on fasttech for ~$10 which is probably the way to go if you only want the driptips. Maybe they have just the driptips now...

    Thanks, I'll have a look.

    There is one US site that has just the drip tips, but after shipping/exchange to Canada, it's cheaper to just buy the entire tank here (or fasttech). Haven't found just the tips anywhere else.
