Which Orchid to get?

Seems like v6 is the popular one? I saw a v7 and it doesnt seem different from v6 with the same deck.

The v7 I saw had a wider bore chimney vs the other ones. Stock its kinda pointless, but if you drill out the deck you can get some good airflow.

Check the clearance section at 101vape, kanvape, or vaporrange for discounted orchid clones. I think I've seen them as low as $4, or 5 recently.

I have a V2 and a V3 from FT. I drilled the airholes to 3mm thru to the deck on the V2, and I use the 4ml chimney and tank from the V3. Its a flavorful, airy cloud blower for sure. I almost wish I would have drilled the air holes to 2.5mm, as it sits now I put the coils as far down as I can to cut the air back a little. Im going to drill the V3 deck here one of these days.

Now that I think about it the V3 may be the V4, it came with a 4ml tank whatever that was. As far as the other models im not sure but the V2-V4 are a good buy.

V6 seems like a good build with an easy deck to build on and bottom fill

I have the V2 and V4. By today's standards, flavor-wise they all suffer a bit from the tall and skinny chimney, but the shorter V2 is the tastiest of the bunch.

The V4 has the advantage of being compatible with Kayfun top-fill caps, which may also work on the V3. Bottom fill-screws are so retro. Using the bottom fill-screw with liquid thicker than about 60VG is extremely time-consuming because of the close proximity of the chamber walls to each other. I don't recommend bottom filling a V3 or V4 at all. Top fill caps are a necessity on those two if you value your time.

Orchid v4 with kayfun4 chimney and pc tank and top cap -or- kayfun4 chimney and Kayfun4 bellcap and a needle bottle to fill. Best imo and both have easier fills.
