Voopoo RBA TPP and PnP coil heads

[JohningAround]

Anyone have any experience with these? I am no stranger to the rda and rta world.

i've the PnP rba. What would you like to know?

Just basically is it worth it. Looks like I’ll have to destroy a tank to get it where I can glow the coils for hot spots. Or do I just need to use a simple build and space the coils? Thanks for the reply. I learned long ago things are not what they seem on YouTube lol

i don't know why you would have to destroy a tank to glow the coils. ???
i can't speak to the TPP RBA but the PnP one is very small, which means small, simple coils are all you can get in there. Voopoo sells, or sold, pre-built coils for the PnP RBA in a container of 10.
Is it worth it? If you really love a PnP tank you've got, sure. You just have to deal w/ the tiny size. Otherwise, a decent RTA would be a lot easier to work with, imo, and let you use complex coils.

Hi, can I ask you a few questions?
I'm thinking of buying it. Is there a problem with the cottons absorbing the liquid? I have 25ga ni80 wire. I will wind coils between 0.2-0.25 ohms (2-2.5mm 4-5 turns). I generally use 45 watts. will it cause dryhit?

i'm not an expert at coil building; that's why i usually use pre-made rta/rba coils like the ones i mentioned before. The label on Voopoo's PnP-RBA coils says the ID is 2.4mm. The coils have 3 full wraps + the ones that extend into the 2 leads. They're spaced. The label says the material is FeCrAl, which is Kanthal; i don't see why Ni80 wouldn't be fine. 28AWG is the recommended wire; the rba is tiny. The coils read around 0.6 Ohms; 0.2 may be more than the rba is made to handle. One of these coils is included w/ the RBA.

Others here know much more about this stuff than i.
