Oh, my... Where to begin? I really, really, really like the Engine by OBS, but I find I am using the Ijoy Combo, Ijoy Limitless Plus, Avocado 24, and Aspire Quad-Flex a lot, too. There is a connection... These are all leak free!

That doesn't mean I've binned to Griffins, Scottua, VCMT, Geminis, Silverplays, Boreas, Aromamizers, smok RTA/ESTA, OR Criuses... They're still in rotation...

When the urge to go MTL hits, I turn to my Kayfuns, Taifuns, Wine, Monster, and Cardinal Kustoms.

When wanting something in between, I'm really enjoying the Serpent and Serpent Mini, Conqueror, Cthulhu V2, Bachelor and Bachelor Nano, Bellus, Goliath V2, and Goblin Mini V1-3.

Looks like I'm not the right person to ask. I kind find redeeming qualities in most tanks... Except, maybe, the Cubis/AIO/Goodger...

I still use my V1 Kayfun clone from FT more than any other RTAs I own.
I'm still using tge cheapest Kayfun clone on Fasttech.

If i could get spare parts for the Silverplay Nano or Goblin Mini those are all i would use. I can't so i use tge little Kayfun in my Avatar. If tge deeming regulations are allowed to stand spare parts will be critical. So this little Bear uses the Kayfun.

For the past year, I've used nothing but the Aqua V2 clones and the UD Bellus rtas. I prefer using them in single coil mode for a more open MTL experience. Within the last week, I decided to shelve the Aqua V2 clones (due to shoddy clonemanship and several disintegrating insulators) and double downed on more black Bellus tanks.

I'm eager to try out the Digiflavor Siren GTA, but waiting for a decent sale and a pay week to coincide ;)

ZoiDman, doesn't the cutting down mess up the threads? :unsure:

If Any thread is cut down Incorrect, then Yeah... It does Yank-co-late the Thread.

The Key to cutting down a Thread is the Cut has to be Very Square to the Axis of Rotation. And the Thread Cut needs to be Chamfered slightly.

If a Person has Never cut down a Thread before, doing a Small Fine Thread like on this Wine RTA Chamber might not be the Best to start with.

BTW - The Wine RTA is a Great RTA right out of the Box. Tons of Flavor.

It was just when I got My First one, there was No Replacement Glass available. But Noticed that a STM glass would work, if I cut about .090" off the RBA Chamber.

And I figured that a Reduced Chamber would just make the Flavor even Better.

I pretty much use the mini Subtank, the nano, and the Toptank because of the different coils I can use. Do use the Wine when I have the need of a touch of orange O-rings (What can I say. My purse matches my shoes too!) and the Serpent mini for low profile look. Still, it's mainly the Kangers with my modded coils. :p

Well then, zoiDman, only have one, but did get a couple of spare glass. Will just have to be careful. Thank you!:)

If you Only have 1 Wine RTA, and you Do have replacement Glass for it, I Wouldn't cut it down. Because I don't know if you can get Another Wine RTA if things go South on you.

Also, there is Not a Ton of threads on the RBA Chamber. So if you do decide to cut it down, Do it Slowly.
