I'm using a mech Origin mod and it is a 21mm device. I want to buy an rda (clone), and want to see what the hype is all about with drippers as far as vapor clouds and taste. I have an Aqua RBA that has been drilled and it works excellent, I like an airy draw and wan't an rda that I wouldn't have to drill, preferably, where I can get great airflow for maximum vapor production and flavor/taste/cooler vape.

Maybe many of them are pretty similar, but what should I be looking at? Is there anything that can run in hybrid on my aqua that is a fairly good rda? Is there one out there that with a little bit of drilling will out perform most others? Thanks

    I'm looking for a dripper also. It's kind of hard to find the "ideal" dripper and then also find a shop that sells them to your county.

    Currently I'm looking for a Magma RDA clone. The domed chamber and air flow from below the coils is supposed to create great flavor. The Igo-M is also supposed to be great. I can't get either for a reasonable price.

    I don't get why they are so expensive and hard to get (limited runs, clones etc.). The design of a dripper is much simpler than something like a kayfun? I want a small conical / domed chamber, adjustable airflow from below the coils, dual or quad posts with big enough holes in the post, all stainless steel. Why isn't there a mass produced "ideal" dripper yet?

    Brass Monkee by Standard Functions. Comes with 2 caps, brass with 2 holes, and SS with 6 holes. Three on each side, and an AFC ring that has an oval hole that you spin to open and close. Also has dual-positive posts for up to quad coils. Runs around 90 bucks american, but got mine in a B&M for 80, amazingly.

    I went with the brass monkee. $90, and I actually found one in stock somewhere after quite a bit of looking.

    TY everyone in this thread for the advice/recommendations. It came down to the zenith or brass monkee... after looking at several head to head reviews I decided on the brass monkee as many people say it performs just as well as a zenith. And it's a little less expensive.

    I will probably end up drilling the brass monkee but I will see how I like the airflow before I do that. My guess though is there will be some drilling done. If I do it I'll be sure to post pics and thoughts on the modifications.

    did you check out the new Igo-W6? Can run quad coils and supposedly a cloud chasers dream stock out of the box and cheap to boot.

    IGO-W6 is a pain to build, it can be done. IGO-M much more airflow and clouds kick hard.

    If I were to pick between the two I would give it to the IGO-M hands down.

    I was also looking into the igo w6, and watched quite a few reviews. I heard the same thing, pain in the ... to build. That right there turned me away from it. Although it's cheap, and the design is very good, so I may end up buying one anyways to see where I get with it.
