I hate wasps....fucking pointless annoying sick jokes of nature that are basically....nothing more.......than dicks.
You see....I have a bad history with the evil little bastards, somewhere...in Waspville...there is a big poster of my face, and on it, in large bold letters..are the words...'Kill this motherfucker at any given opportunity'....and here's how I know that to be a fact....yes...it's pointless story time....you lucky, lucky people...(sigh)
As a child, many moons ago... I was riding my BMX through a forest with my friends, and somehow happened upon the mother of all wasp gangster families, the Peaky Blinders of the insect world if you will...who saw fit to adorn me with a lovely wasp onesie.....stabbing me no less than 12 times with their angry poisonous pointy penis's....one of which.....was right on the nutsack, oh yeah...let that sink in (that wasp certainly did) .... thankfully, as my ever growing tribe of offspring can attest to...the damage did not appear to be permanent, I just stank of TCP for a month and acquired the nickname of 'Willy One Bollock'.....due to my lopsided and overly bulbous fleshy pendulum.......kids can be so cruel....
And let us not forget the time I was rudely awoken at 4am, whilst in bed...alone...recovering from reconstructive spinal surgery, by a noise that I can only describe as 'the gentle humming of death' ....you see, as misfortune would have it, it turns out that at certain times of the year, leaving your window open and light on, is an open invite for Waspy 'The Knife' McCuntfuck and his cronies to decide that 'Hey!.....Your room looks decidedly warmer than out here, THEREFORE we shall share your cozy man cave for the evening.....if you would be so fucking kind...guvnor', my answer was a resounding 'NO!....You may NOT! You ill mannered stripy sadistic reprobates!'...but seeing as I was practically paralyzed, the only options available to me at that time were either to accept this hostile takeover, while I lay there and slowly wept, uncontrollably shitting in my pantaloons....or drag my crippled carcass along the bedroom floor....whilst I slowly wept..... and still shitting in my pantaloons....kicking the door shut behind me, and sleeping on the landing....covered in shit and tears.....I chose the latter.....allowing those vengeful gate crashing fuck nuggets to while away the hours eating my munchies, playing on my Playstation and generally treating my room like a seedy backstreet watering hole....I don't even want to think about what they probably did in my bed.....no sir.....I do not like wasps...and nowadays when I see one in the house....I tend to act.....irrationally.....
Which is more than likely the reason why, when asked if I wanted to review the Wasp Nano RDA, I politely and calmly replied....."NOIDONOTWANTTOPUTAFUCKINGWASPINORAROUNDMYMOUTHAREYOUFUCKINGCRAZY??!!!......"
"Okay well.....that's slightly irrational (and weird) but....they make another one....that's not called the Wasp.....would you like to look at that one instead?"
"Oh....okay.....cool".....I replied...and so here we are.....finally .....and as vaguely as ever......

Hello once again my buzzy little billowing bumble bees .....back again with more of the same, only different..(?)..for today we are looking at an RDA from a company called Oumier..... that isn't a Wasp.....which is always a bonus in my book....what it is though.....is a little.....sideways...?
Oumier are an unknown to me, for reasons I have already stated.....but they got themselves well and truly on the map with their (shudders) Wasp Nano RDA, a RDA that apparently is very good....I'll take their word for it.....but one thing's for sure....Squonkers bloody love the thing.....and I have absolutely no doubt...that they will love this too, courtesy of my good friends from the east....Heavengifts, I give to you...the Oumier VLS RDA....
The Lowdown
The VLS RDA is a 25mm wide, dual post, dual AND single coil affair, with adjustable side airflow, and is available in three colours...
Each colour uses a plastic for the main sleeve, the gold being a PEI and the black and frosted being something they claim to be 'Aerospace PC' ......
We'll call it....'Plastic'....for the sake of argument.
The stubby 810 drip tip is made from the same magical 'Plastic' ....
Within the package you receive the VLS RDA...obviously....as well as a small pack of Angorabbit cotton...which I threw in the bin....two very nice fused claptons...which I used, usual O ring array, spare grub screws (2 sizes), a tri-driver and a BF pin.....oh and some....bumph (manual)
NIce....and you know how much I love a complete package....and to be fair...it's quite a large package to fit in such a small box.......maybe I should re-word that actually......
But of course the star of this particular show is the VLS RDA...
Not at all ugly....on the outside...but like a lot of people I've certainly met in my lifetime...once you look a little deeper within.....it all gets a bit fugly....and complicated....
OCD sufferers look away now.....
Indeed...and I totally understand that reaction, because this thing is not only unconventional to anyone who fears anything relating to 'change'.....but it takes what you think you know.....and tips it right on its side....
It might look odd....and well....it is....but, what Oumier have done with the build deck on the VLS RDA, is design it in such a way that it can accommodate both single and dual coils effortlessly, and not only that....but also in either vertical or horizontal configurations......which instantly changes my reaction to this deck from utter bewilderment....to...
Now....I'm not really a single coil kinda vaper, so I went with what this thing was truly built for....the dual vertical build.
Two things to be wary of with this, firstly...and obviously...one of your coil legs will go in the opposite direction to what you are used to if you normally build on dual post velocity style build decks...no biggy....easy to sort out, but secondly...if you are using flat wire, like the ones supplied, the bottom post slot will twist your coil leg....it's kind of unavoidable, and I found it easier to deal with by putting in the bottom leg first and then bending your coil up into the top slot....once you suss it...it's a real pleasure to build on.
