I like the rba, but prefer the Starre or Scylla for filling.
There is a thin plastic flapper valve dome under the drip tip for filling.
Twist the top fill through drip tip twist the top. I had some difficulty with the top fill and 100VG. Thinner juice may work better.
Same ceramic cartridges as Scylla but the RBA has a 5mm hole for a 5mm single coil Taifun style straight through wick. I took the ceramic out of the ceramic cartridge with tiny juice holes, used my own OC and the RBA section for the larger juice holes.
Comes with a mandrel for wrapping your own coils.
Also comes with a couple NR-R-NR coils, one piece of OC, extra center pin, couple extra O-rings and insulator grommets. RBA is premade with OC and NR-R-NR. Ceramic cartridge installed in atomizer.
There is a JFC ring on the RBA cartridge. Not externally adjustable. You can take bottom off tank for changing JFC ring/cartridge without having to empty tank.
AFC with detents and stops.
Did have a funky chemical smell so always wash attys out first.
The slotted, vertical tube tungsten encapsulated in nonporous ceramic heating element has large uncoated solder pads for the legs. I don't know if they are silver soldered and if so I do not know if the silver solder is cadmium free. Uncoated pads on these type of ceramic elements is not specific to freemax/vapeston but the solder pads are larger than the modvapa or Krixus elements.
