The royalty thing he makes on the pharaoh is actually the only thing that stops me from pulling the trigger on that RDA. I donāt wanna help fill his pockets with anything. Not actually true, i would love to fill them with lint 
So therefore i go for other RDAās where he has no monetary interest or any other interest for that matter. And there is a ton of good RDAās out there to get.

If Rip had lobbied congress or been a proponent of the FDA Deeming Regs I would feel different, but he didnāt do that did he? As far as I know it was that one ridiculous video where he was pushing mineral water or some stupidness. Whatever, I think heās done far more good for the vaping community than anything else. Not to say Iām a RT fanboy, I just think there comes a time to let it go and enjoy a tremendous RDA 
As for builds, Iām running dual fused Clapton SS and itās excellent. Itās 4 wraps each, 4mm ID. The vape is so good I donāt think Iāll try any other builds.

There are a lot of reviewers out there I like. I donāt feel any different about Rip than I do Grimm or Bogan. Not sure if Grimm gets any coin from the Recoil RDA But it doesnāt really matter. Itās on my list.
Iāve got to try that build you have. Iāve done a 28g twisted kanthal 7-8 wrap at .84 ohms. It is better than the single fused clapton I had on there but still not giving me what I want. Either I need a different build or need wicking better.

Have you watched this video? I started from 4:50 just to take you right to wicking. Once I started doing it like this I got a better vape and much easier to drippppp

Iāve seen that video before i got my Pharaoh and man this is really hard to watch. But Iāve tried the trick with not closing the juice well and i havenāt noticed any difference. Got a 0.45Ohm kanthal clapton in there so maybe itās different with a bigger coil.

I will check it out when I get home. The only thing really holding me back from enjoying this RDA is wicking. I get some good hits, but I really have to baby it. If not I get a slight dry hit.
Watching Riptripper is like fingernails on a chalkboard to me. Some videos not as bad as others. If heās associated with a good product that doesnāt bother me , just assure me you canāt hear his annoying voice when you vape on this dripper can you. No, phew then itās ok to proceed. Itās gotten good reviews everywhere Iāve seen. Definitely on the try list for me.

Isnāt this thing supposed to be leak free? Seriously, Iām about to chunk it in the road.
Anything leaks if you over drip it. Or does it leak through the 510?
I heard some people had leakage problems on the Pharaoh.
I think itās leaking through the 510.
I tend to be on the conservative side when I drip.
What you can do is to try to tighten the 510 screw at the bottom but be careful so it doesnāt snap on you. If that doesnāt help you could try to change the peek insulator you have on the 510, that is if you got a spare.
Thatās all i can come up with right now since i donāt own that one myself and got no clue what kind of spares it comes with.
Hope you can get it to stop leaking. Good luck.

Thanks. Itās got me a little discouraged at the moment. Which is my way of saying itās pissing me off. Lol.

One of my Goons started leaking through the 510 and when i tried to tighten it i could tighten it just a little bit but that tiny bit helped and it kinda stopped leaking. It can get a bit damp after a while but that is nothing compared to leaking.

Iām putting it on standby for a few. Itās frustrated me so Iāve wicked my OBS Engine and a TF-RTA, so Iām going to relax a bit and enjoy a vape.
I may put it off till tomorrow when Iāve had time to reflect on it a bit. It may keep me from chunking it.

For two days now I havenāt had a dry hit. Keep the the fill slotwide open, used the tilt method to drip 10 drops on each side.
Both days Iāve had leaks. It isnāt from the 510 pin or the airflow holes. It appears to becoming from the airflow ring itself. When it did it today I checked the airflow holes and they are bone dry. Plus a majority of the leaking was on the opposite side of the air flow holes. I hadnāt dripped for a while but I tilt the mod towards me with the airflow facing away so Iām thinking that maybe I had overfilled earlier. Unscrewed the top and part of my wick was dry and the juice well was dry.
There is really no where for it to leak from the airflow ring. I donāt even touch that ring. So Iām looking at it and I think that as condensation builds up in the chamber itās slipping past this o-ring.
I canāt see how itās getting out any other way.
How does the cap look like in this area? any dents or scratches?

None at all. Itās a new tank and I havenāt tipped it over or dropped it. Threads on smooth. I have a large o-ring kit at work that I will rifle through today and see if I can find a match. You would think that o-ring would come with the RDA. A spare that is.
