Goblin Mini RTA by Youde/UD

I take it you like the crius??? sorry but… not really lol :wink:

Yes I do, but I’ve mostly been using the Omegas. Great flavor with dual 22g Ti contact coils. They work perfectly on my DNA 200s. My exCube 2 won’t read 'em tho.

This is exactly my scenario. Over the past couple of months, I’ve been vaping many NETs which have a 50PG/50VG ratio, more or less. Also, with my own mixes, I’ve been mixing at a much higher PG ratio than in the past; finally grasping the fact that PG is a much better flavor carrier than VG. Thank goodness I don’t have a physical aversion to PG, 'cause I’d rather go for the flavor over clouds.

That being said, the GM mini is perfect for me and the way I vape. :yum:

I’m glad you mentioned PG and NETs. That may help me get more flavor on my next batch. I’m not going to strain this batch to death. I think I strained out some of the goodies in my last batch.

I discovered this when I was batch testing some new tobacco flavorings. With a heavy VG ratio, the stand alone flavor of the tobacco was extremely muted; with a 50PG/50VG ratio, the tobacco flavor popped off the chart. @daath said this in a comment long, long ago…but like a hard headed child, I didn’t want to listen to what he was saying! :pensive: Lesson learned…keep an open mind and listen to the voice of experience.

Do you say this because they are only 3ml? Ive still not tried them but they are on the way, if FT ever decides to ship them.

Nope… I vape high power wide open and it don’t fit my vaping style. IMO it’s more of a relaxed vape tank. It is flavorful when I use Ti. It just didn’t produce enough vape for me.

Ahh, got it. Thanks for the input. If i dont like it i reckon a family member gets a new tank.

Well put…couldn’t agree more!:wink: It also fits within the perimeters of a low profile tank for when I’m around the haters at work… The GM mini sitting on a 350 mech mod doesn’t attract much attention! :+1:…it can hide in the palm of your hand! :sunglasses:

I liked the Goblin Mini quite a lot. So far the Crown and the Goblin Mini have been the only tanks with air flow suited more for me. The one and only thing I do not like about the mini is trying to fill it with juice by removing that tiny screw. I’m scared to death I’m gonna lose that thing…lol

After further review I retract this statement. It looks like Youde is getting on board with new features that is inline with current popular tanks. This deserves a closer look.

The Youde Zephyrus V2 Tank is currently under development by Youde. It will work with Zephyrus version 1 coils. The coils that this atomizer will work with are the UD OCC coil heads, as well as your own build. The Zephyrus V2 comes with an RBA section. This tank has a noticeable more restrictive draw than the previous Zephyrus. Youde’s focus on this tank is flavor, not vapor production.

Specifications:
304 stainless steel construction.
Made by Youde/UD.
0.2, 0.3, and 0.5 ohm coils available.
Giant airflow holes 3mm x 6.5mm.
Blue, red and clear o-rings for more styling choices!
Ceramic element in base for better flavor.
Redesigned top fill valve
Redesigned AFC valve – more restrictive airflow for increased flavor (makes this an everybody tank!)
Fluted chimney is now notable skinnier for max flavor
5ml e-liquid capacity.
Pyrex tank section.
Japanese organic cotton coil heads.
22mm diameter.
RBA base comes with the tank for your own builds!

What coil builds are best suited to the GM?

Would be interested to hear what level ohms to aim at and whether to go single or dual coil. (I’m using a VTC mini Box)

I really like the dual coil 26ga Ti, 6.5 wraps on 2.5 mm. Spaced. You could do 2mm too. The deck is rather small but using only a single coil doesn’t help with space. I haven’t used with Kanthal only Ti in TC mode.

Careful with kanthal and building low, that glass mouth piece is an excellent conductor of heat.

Yes it is. If you’re wanting to hit this thing softly maybe this won’t be of interest. But if you want to lung hit the GM, check out this thread for the custom acrylic drip tip made for this tank. It’s going to stay cool under some pretty harsh conditions. What else I love is you don’t have to remove it when refilling your tank. Simply set it upside down and the drip tip will hold it steady sitting right on the table top. I love mine.

Loving the wide bore drip tip you have linked but should have mentioned I’m a MTL merchant :no_mouth:

Would this drip tip still be suitable? Otherwise what other options other than the stock tip for the Goblin.

Cheers :grinning:

No the tip is very wide bore which doesn’t really lend itself to MTL hits. Also, and I think others might disagree, I wouldn’t think the GM is a good choice for MTL vapers either. I used to think maybe, but then I tried with my own and find that even with the air shut off there still needs to me more restriction. Perhaps if someone was to do a single coil build and a small coil such as 2mm ID it would work. Haven’t tried that.

They are finally leaving China today, looking forward to trying them out. I have a dozen Subtank Mini’s in a box, they were decent for awhile but i quickly lost interest. Yeah, that little screw… Ill prolly take it down to the hardware store and see if i cant get a few more before i even take the dern thing out to fill it the first time. I lose things often.
