Rta or Rdta? What should I get?

Ok so I don't know where to post this so I might as well post it here.

I have been using a mutation x v4 for a while now and I'm planning on buying a atomizer with a tank so I can just lollygaggin' and vape. Now I am torn between rtas* and rdtas. I've used both rda and rta(kanger subtank and Crius) so I know pretty well how they work.

Here is what's worrying me. Does coil life in rdta the same as in rtas? It seems that you can vape far more with rtas without changing coils/wicks than rdas(idk about this but imo rda coils gets dirtier a lot faster than rtas)


Edit: *It should be rta not rda. My bad.

Honestly, I think it really depends on the juice. Juices with alot of sweetener and coffee type vapes tend to gunk up coils and wicks faster. Perhaps the rda gunks up faster, but I haven't really noticed that myself. But I like a tank when I'm out and about and a dripper when I'll be somewhere for a while.

I'm not crazy, my mother had me tested.

The obvious advantage for me is that when an rda or an rdta gets gunked up you can easily pull the wick, clean the coil, re-wick it and you are back in business. And it is much less expensive though more time consuming. I used to use a lot of Atlantis rtas and I feel like I change my coils a lot less frequently on my rdtas than on my rtas. Wonder what others have experienced but I re-wick my rdtas every few weeks and change the coil every month or so. I used to have to change the heads on my Atlantis every week or either the taste or vapor production would go to crap.

the coils are the same so coil life should be the same regardless.

my opinions on good ones are

RTA
Boreas - just got this one a few days ago. love it. great tank and 20 bucks right now on ebay
TFV8 - not a true RTA but comes with the RBA deck so you can use it like one and works great and you can buy coils if you are feeling lazy

RDTA
Avacado 24 - it's an RDA with a tank under it. works great and good quality and on the cheap side around 30 bucks

RDA
Pharaoh - best flavor I've ever had period. cheap 30-40 bucks and no leaks with huge juice well. awesome build deck
Tsunami 24 - around 30 bucks, great flavor and clouds. great build deck

I've been thinking on getting a Combo rdta. The shop near to my house just posted that they're in stock. I've been thinking about getting a avocado or limitless rdta before but I didn't see any of those when I came into their store last week. Anyone has Combo rdta yet? Is it good or should I just get myself a tank?

I ended up getting Combo too. Works grest. The only regret I have is it doesn't match my mod. I have a silver mod but I bought the black one. Figured that I can just put my black silicom case and it's fine. Heads up though, it chugs a lot of juice.
