After your recommendation I had a look at some reviews for the artisan, and decided I needed one in my life! :grin: I found one for the princely sum of 14 British pounds and it is currently winging it’s way to me :smiley:

Edit
Ahhh dont tell the mrs!! :crazy_face:

From these guys, not used them before and they only have the gold in stock but at the price I couldn’t say no!:grin:

The Fog Works are great, I’ve used them a few times. Unbelievable bargains now and then.
Sadly I couldn’t live with a gold tank so I’ll maybe look elsewhere.
Thanks :blush:

Hahah I did wonder whether I could or not but I’m planning to only use it at home :rofl::rofl:

As far as 22mm single coiler RDA’s are concerned my favourite is the Coilart DPRO Mini.
I love a restricted DTL vape and all of the others that I tried were far too airy for me even the Hadaly with the airflow almost closed but this one is perfect and the flavour is top notch no matter what I put in it. It mostly sits on my HotCig RSQ squonker and they are a great little setup with just a small fused Clapton coil running at 20-30 watts. I’m thinking of getting a Haku Venna next as I fancy trying one out but I’m in no rush as I’m happy with what I have now.

OK Brother Louie. I’m taking your word for it…

Me too. I thought I was a unicorn once, but just mixed up my meds. A story for another time… Anyway, thanks for the great find. Bought a rose gold to sit on a bronze Katana.

I didn’t care for it. I don’t agree about the Elder Dragon suppressed bakery comment above either lol. We all use different juices and like different atomizers which is fine. I don’t like getting into ā€œWhich is betterā€¦ā€ arguments/debates. What’s best for me might not be for others. I’ve yet to find another RDA that beats the Elder Dragon’s performance. The Tauren Solo came close but I really don’t like the way it squonks.

I think it’s fascinating how some people can detect things like that. I’m not saying they are incorrect because we all have different vibes. But the only thing I can ever tell between atty’s is whether they seem to produce more or less flavor or vapor than others. In a lot of ways I’m glad I’m not quite that sensitive, to be honest.

Just out of interest @louiesquared what type of build/setup do you run in your artisan? I got mine a couple of days ago and have watched a few setup videos and run through a couple of different coils builds and setups but so far I’m not wowed by it, it’s my first proper bottom air flow rta, and after hearing everyone rave about bottom airflow maybe my expectations were a little high. I’m not saying it’s a total flop there is flavour there and the flavours good it just seems a little distant and makes me want to up my mix %, which I know to be good I’ve tried it on my RDAs single and dual coil and in my Zeus x. Anyhow prob to much info like I say I was just wondering what coil types/placement you use in it, so far I’ve tried a couple of different clapton builds, I even tried twisting one so it sat more over the main air holes in the deck bit that just twisted the wicking and cause a bit of s leak :crazy_face: I haven’t done any simple wire builds yet…

I run either a dual core fused Clapton 26g wrapped with 36g or a triple core 30g wrapped with 40g. All SS316L. 3mm or 3.5mm inner diameter. I dont count how many wraps, I just make it the right width to fit the holes. I place it about 2mm above the deck. I get a warm and dense vape between 35 to 45 watts.

Excuse the dirty coil. I need to clean and re-wick. This is a tri-core 30/40 at 3.5mm ID.

Awesome thankyou @louiesquared. I’ll have a bit more of a play, it is a quirky little beast and I do like it just need to find the sweet spot for it. Thanks again! :+1:

Here is a better shot.

Nice and clean :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: thanks, I’ll have another crack once I’ve made some more wire at a bigger diameter and raise it up a little, the vid I saw he had it right down low so that’s what I tried and maybe try a different flavour :crossed_fingers:

I feel like the longer I have been vaping the more sensitive to all sorts of things I have become…I used to love FW blueberry at like 3-4% in recipes, I don’t think I have used it over 1.5% in a year though…

I notice all kinds of weird atomizer stuffs, when I get a new atty I run about 10 different recipes through it before I have a solid opinion that works for me, like the vandy vape phobia V2, I tried it with several flavor profiles and wasn’t very impressed, custards tastes good but everything else was very muted or ā€œwatered downā€ tasting, then I tried Smokey’s twisted fried pretzel recipe in it and it’s the best atty I own for that juice for some reason.

I also look for this kind of stuff lol I don’t know many people who will spend 30 minutes comparing two identical rda’s with identical coils but different coil positions just to see what happens lol, I like tinkering with minutiae though.

That’s me as well.

I don’t remember how long it took (I know it was more than a couple weeks) before I found what it took to really make the Theorem come to its full potential.

But when I found the right coil size, and placement, it was an eye opener (night and day difference).

I will say though, some are easier to nail down than others out of the gate. I think those are the ones that most people tend to gravitate towards.

Admittedly, I tried the Reverie recently (thanks to a kind soul here), and while there a several positives to it, it was beyond annoying to me to try and wick a vertical coil in that particular atty (even with the base removed).

I try to be mindful of the previous lesson learned though. :wink:

Now I wish I would have tried a little harder before I gave that one away. I tried a little and just could not see why the Theorem was getting so much love. I was literally about 30 seconds away from flinging it into the trash can when my buddy said, ā€œI’ll take itā€.

I just ordered a Vitamin Styled RDTA from FastTech @USD 3.85. Should get it by end Sept 2020. If anyone wants to check it, the SKU 7349701. Sorry, I don’t know how to attach/ upload the photo/ details.
Regards.
