what is your fav dripper and why?

[Coelli]

Other than the Quasar I mentioned earlier, I also like my Brass Monkey. It has double positive mounts, like the Helios, and comes with two caps. The ss cap has AFC. The Brass cap has dual holes, but no AFC. Great dripper, for the price, and is American made.

I have a Brass Monkey too, I use the steel/airflow cap on my Penny mod. Until I got the Orijen it was my favorite (for Provari I still prefer the Dripper Pro). It's a great rda and I also like that it's made in my country (maybe doesn't matter to some folks, but I appreciate it )

Definitely love the Caterpillar. I have a Igo W3, Helios and Omega. The Caterpillar is my go to, as is the Omega (mostly because it is my newest). The caterpillar looks beautiful on my Nemesis.

 

[CassiusCloud]

Igo-w3

I don't like how low everything is in it..
big air holes flush with the bottom of the atty..
If they would have had just a little bit of an edge..

The whole adjustable air holes just kills it for me,if you overfill it at all it's leaking out one of the many exits lol

My two authentic Patriots, dual coils at around .4. Other than that, all I have for a dripper in an hcigar Nimbus clone. I keep this one single coil around .6

damn the patriot in your avatar looks killer! that glass tip really sets that thing off

My valkryie clone after fixing the contact issue lol dedicated dripper with airflow control and sexy design. Feels perfect in the hand

I have been really interested in the valkyrie since I started dripping, just haven't put my money where my mind is. I did buy the ft valkyrie, I can attest that ft does not post negative reviews, and that is all I will say about that.

Who made your clone and what is the contact issue that you had to fix???

My meager collection in order:

My Magma RDA has been my favorite. Best flavor with incredible vapor production. My build is a dual coil using twisted 28ga to come out to 0.30 ohms. The large juice well has definitely been one of the points I like most about the Magma.

My second favorite is my Omega clone. Once I figured out how to properly coil and wick it, it's a beast with the 3mm air holes wide open. I have this currently built to 0.5 ohms with a dual coil using twisted 30ga wire.

The RDA I'm still trying to master is my Trident clone. I drilled the big single airhole and the dual coil air holes to 5/64. I get great flavor using the dual coil 30ga twisted that I used for the Omega, but the draw is still tight. I'm experimenting with different wicking set ups so the air flow will open up a bit more.

HOLY VAPING JUICE WELLS BATMAN that thing could almost be called a tank. as far as the trident is yours v1 or v2? I maxed out my v2 dual air holes to match the afc ring, did it with a dremel but it looks to be about 1/8''. Hitting like mayweather with the .3ish build I have in it

If the Omega had "normal" air holes it would be perfect, I still love it !! I'm starting to really like my Trident v2 now.

I want to try the Stillare, Igo-M, and the Tobh but I think my next one will be the Zenith.....who knows though, every time I go in I get something else, LoL

I just got my igo-m hitting right and dayum lol. it just might be my new favorite. Used dual 30awg "parallel coils" with cotton threadied through the coil and a layer sitting on top each coil as well. The airflow is just insane lol. I got it before I really knew how to do low ohm builds, and thought the amount of airflow was just so over the top and pointless... now it is my favorite thing about the device.

I build the Quasar with 26g dual coils. Usually 4.5 to 5.0 ohms. I'm not really a cloud chaser, so the airflow is fine. I run the AFC fully open.

damn 5 ohm 26awg... is that the end ohms of a dual build or is that per coil? seems like those would be some MASSIVE coil if that is end ohms. unless its dual in series???

My favorite (in my limited experience) is my Zenith by Crescent Moon. Here's why:

Adjustable airflow from nil to as open as you can handle, for single, or dual/quad coil.
Side posts are welded to the deck making a stronger connection.
Posts are slotted with Allen set screws which makes using ribbon wire easy.
Delrin insulator in the top cap that prevents the drip tip from heating up, even while chain-vaping sub-ohm builds.
Excellent machining and beautiful finish with choice of trim color included (brass, steel or black).

If I was to start with a bottom feeder style I might go with the Origen. Heard lots of good things about them and that deep well would have to make over "skwonking" less of a messy issue.

Hells yea squirrel great description, that is one slick device with some awesome features. the first time I have ever heard of slotted posts. maybe some day I'll have to try out some ribbon

I would say in order
#1Helios Excellent flavour and vapour production Easy to build
#2Atomic Excellent flavour and vapour production Easy to build
#3Trident v2 Excellent flavour and vapour production not so Easy to build
#4Omega Excellent flavour and vapour production not so Easy to build stupid holes low on the deck
The Atomic would #1 if the deck was bigger you can only put a few drops on at a time and have to continually drip it It's a PIA
Bottom Feed RDA's it's a tie RM2 and Cyclone I can't decide witch I like better both are really good

Im amazed you are the only one that mentioned any bottom feeders

 

[psyc63]

I would have to say my TOBH has to be my favorite. Adjustable airflow no drilling needed, deep well, fins on it act as heat sink. vapes great, flavor fantastic.

Mines by ehpro it's around 50$ online, and the switch and brass contact gets build up after use and needs to be scraped or won't fire as good. There is fixes but I forgot which one is best lol

I dont have the Helios but I agree with these and the order. Damn, that Trident is a pain to build on but great flavor is a definite on it. I choose the Atomic with the small deck caveat already mentioned.

 

[JBal4]

The Veritas is my favorite for right now. I can't beat the flavor with my Atomic or Helios although its not a ridiculous difference in flavor. The best thing about it is that it won't leak in my pocket or if I lay it down and it holds a crazy amount of juice for a dripper I do about 20 - 25 drops at a time.
Still waiting on the Zenith V2 I ordered tho so can't compare it. Waiting on vapemail is the worst

I was at a loss for words when I googled the veritas. Never heard of or seen anything like it. That is one badass dripper. little side note you ever heard of the veritas speaker line lol I used to have a set of the veritas mini c. the funny thing is this atomizer actually cost more than I paid for both speakers

Heres the new tobh version looks pretty sweet, just ordered 2



jking i only ordered 1

[HauntedMyst]

My Taifun GS. Because I can convert it to the convenience of a tank.

 

[ukeman]

I'm big on under coil air source drippers... other than the Ukraine Modders Titaniums I have I have a Fakirs Troy X which is pretty good, but not as clean as the Ti's...
The Magma also has under coil air, and I think you get a better flavor and vape from that system overall.

But the Origen is no slouch; for a dual coil, its flavor is the best i've tried... even got one for my Reo (which is sub ohm now btw)

Can't wait for the Achilles to pop from Ukraine, but they've been held up big time now.

Titanium rocks for its strength and lightness...

 

[jhelliwell]

I like the tobh for it's heatsink-like fins, and ease of build, but I prefer the stillare for it's mahoosive infinitely adjustable airflow, but best of all, I love my 3D dripper. It's easy to build and has washers to trap the kanthal with, and with a good nest of cotton in there and a spring-loaded squonking juice well beneath the build deck, it's pretty awesome. Such dense vapour and mighty flavour, it's a stunning vape. With 1.5ml in the well, and a good bit in the cotton too, you can vape for an hour without dripping. Finally you can drip and drive (actually you can't see to drive)

 

[TyCreek]

My favorite dripper is bottom fed and my RM2 get more hours in use than any other.

 

[lightbud404]

tobh and stillare - not necessarily in that order

In my Trident I'm running 24 gauge duals at .33ohm and for me what helped was to use 1 piece of cotton for the wick, leaving the bottom of the coil open. I saw a video of it on a dudes video named Trevor Jones on youtube.

 

[DoMortas]

My fav RDA always seems to be one I don't have yet.. I really need to stop buying stuff, my house is starting to look like a B&M lol

 

[illitirit]

I think the origen v2 is the best rda out at the moment. If your like me and hate dripping every 3-4 hits, its really a godsend.

 

[FatherTime]

currently the castle. hopefully my zenith and/or CATs clone will be even better

 

[Steamer861]

You/ Everyone should really try the Helios it has 4 posts makes it a breeze to build the posts are high off the deck makes it easy to wick and
keeps the coils up high for no flooding the deck hold plenty of juice the air flow control is good and it Vapes Awesome I like every thing about it

I dont have the Helios but I agree with these and the order. Damn, that Trident is a pain to build on but great flavor is a definite on it. I choose the Atomic with the small deck caveat already mentioned.
