You know, I'm about as lazy as they come, but the one thing I've never done is sit around and wish for an easier way to fill the Pico Squeeze bottle. I can change the the battery and refill the bottle in under 30 seconds without spilling a drop of juice.

is that the same bottlecap now being sold for squonk bottles? I mean, I'd just get the $7 cap and find a bottle that satisfies.

No. These are sold with the bottle,but fit any standard juice bottles. The caps that are sold now by wotofo and bombertech only fit 60ml chubby gorilla bottles and would be to large to use on the pico because of the battery cap.

I just change the bottle for a full one. Those Kanger bottle plugs are handy.

I use a refill bottle on pretty much all my squonk mods. I had the 5-pack of refill bottles from FT and used the tops on 120 ml bottles. All I have to do for the Pico is click five times ---> power off! remove rda, refill, replace rda, click 5 times. Admittedly, it may sound overly complicated to some but it is something I choose to live with since the Luxotic silicone bottles are so much more to my liking.

@Train Re: Gorge
STUPID easy to build with a single - first atty where I went,
"duh, just take the big fat grub screws out, and the coil literally will
just lay there, legs in slots, while I put them back in". And yep - that
worked just fine. With the little (not blue!!) driver they thoughtfully
provided.

It took me a bit to catch up to you. That's no surprise. :) I found out
this morning, you're correct.

Don't like removing grub screws, always losing them. Got set up this
morning & did it anyway. Worked out like a charm. :)

This goes further in making Gorge one of if not an all out favorite.
Knew the build setup on the deck looked keen to being a Z coil. Could
not fathom how to do it as the legs kept getting my way.

Read the quoted above somewhere else, figured it was you. Thought it worth
a "Hell yeah" over here.

Well gotta git gone. Run 'er slow

I received my Ulton KRMA today alongside the Jorda B.

Quality is excellent on both I usually opt for Sxk but these Ulton versions are easily as good if not better than the Sxk RDAs that I own.

The Jorda B is a strange looking thing but delivers a really decent MTL experience although it's not great for DL, I was kinda hoping for a Le Concorde killer (very restricted DL at around 25-30w) buts it's a bit too tight and works much better as a versatile MTL with the tighter cap, excellent flavour.

KRMA is not bad but it doesn't seem to offer anything special really besides the fact that it looks quite nice especially with the black cap. Flavour is decent but certainly not any better than my Narca or Hadaly.

Ordered two Ulton KRMAs yesterday, hoping to replace my Hadaly. While I love the Hadaly, I'm usually too absent minded when squonking and make it leak quite often. If the KRMA offers the similar performance in a less leak prone package, I'll be a happy squonker. KRMA looks to be easier to build too, the floppy tabs on the Hadaly perturb me.

If they ever clone the Basic 1.1, get one. Terrific flavor and leak proof top airflow that channels down underneath the coil. I have my second authentic ordered

It's been on my radar. What's the difference between the original and the 1.1?

Never remove grub screws just back them out far enuf to get yer wire in there.

That works for most RDA, and I can agree regarding most RDA. The Gorge RDA though is one of those rare exceptions where conventional wisdom might hinder what needs done. In fact going contrary to what seems correct is exactly what gives the Gorge a surprising edge by its simplicity in building.

The airflow channeling under the coil is the only notable difference I see that would merit getting this over the Gorge. Saving $60 seems reason enough to askew a nifty looking feature. Although this is without testing the benefit of that feature.

Looked at review of the Basic and saw it is high quality machined. No doubt it might be an on point value. Not trying to knock the RDA here. Some of us have little choice in being cheapskates, but that can also change like opinions of RDAs.

I used to think the Velocity clones were the rage. Then, I tried a Goon clone and now the Gorge and Wasp Nano are holding sway. Tomorrow? Who knows, I might enjoy vaping a tube sock RDA. :)

Which clone do you have? Is the v1 clone a close approximation? Is it worth getting? I have no qualms with buying authentic, not a terribly expensive atty. Though their FB group is now set to super secret, so that's strike one already.

I have the black Kindbright clone from FT. Fantastic quality for the money and very comparable to the authentic.

Parts aren't interchangeable though, FYI

Ah, so you like that NarCa huh? Get me your details, I'll see about getting you another out if you'd like. Tried one myself. It's not suiting me, someone else ought to enjoy it. :)
That's very kind of you, however I believe I'm on the other side of the planet to you (I'm in the UK) and I have 3 SXK Narca and 2 of the Coppervape ones to keep me going but thank you for the offer anyway.

I had a bit of trouble with my Coppervape Narca, the cap doesn't seem to sit completely flush and it's clearly not a 1:1 clone the cap is a different size to the Authentic.

The SXK Narca however is a thing of beauty, the machining is absolutely flawless and looks identical in every way to the authentic. Apart from the 'full spectrum' flavour I get from it the thing that keeps me coming bk for more is the ease of build and its obvious durability and simplicity.

I own around 40 RSAs now not including duplicates and if I could only keep 2 it would without a doubt be my Narca or Le Concorde as they are perfect for my vaping style (5 or 6 wraps of 24awg at around 30w)

My Daytona Rda arrived today from 3fvape and its a great looking little atty i've only built it single coil using the included block but so far so good.

Its a littke tricky to build as the airflow hole gets in the way but the tiny reduced chamber combined with quite a large airflow and wide bore cap gives and extremely saturated vape.

Whoa. Hold the horses there Nelly. Take a peek at a few rda here.

https://www.fasttech.com/products/0/10045350/9624823-narca-styled-rda-rebuildable-dripping-atomizer

This is the one I got, simply choosing a pee stain yellow PEI cap.

https://www.fasttech.com/products/0/10045350/9625040-narca-styled-rda-rebuildable-dripping-atomizer

Is another they have listed. And another one.

https://www.fasttech.com/products/0...dbright-narca-styled-rda-rebuildable-dripping

None of these look even remotely close to what you've got. Excuse the ruddy 'ell for my questioning, what the?

Are the two different markets that far apart from what is what? Maybe it's just Fast Tech too. If I had gotten something that looked more akin to what you've there in the pics, I might have enjoyed it.

At the same time, I don't want to go mailing something out and it not being what I thought it was supposed to be. Got someone interested if they still are that. I'll send out if that's what they desire. Don't want to be saying I'm sending out X when it's Y I have. That would be wrong and I'm not intending to be falsifying anything.

No no no lol the pictured RDA is the 'Daytona' in reference to the latter half of my post

I'm sure you have indeed got the correct Narca!

So I figured out my woes with the NarCa...

Was my N80 Wire.

I was using an old spool of 26g...

Made a new coil for the NarDa and did a simple dry burn as I always do, wicked it up...took a toot and almost puked LOL


Right away I knew it was the wire... so I pulsed away the nasty on that fused I made in the NarDa and viola...no off taste. Truly was disgusting...

Remade a coil for the NarCa with my normal N80 ( newer spools ) dry burned and no off taste ...guess boiling it 5 times, 10 passes in an Ultrasonic cleaner + isopropyl bath was enough haha... dumb ass it was the wire!

Tossed that wire though...

Downside...cap gets to hot...so in the end it still gets stowed *facepalm* Guess I can buy a NRC Black Ultem cap for it and vape it the way I like...

NarDa is better though ;)

When your rda comes with pictured instructions to put a coil and cotton in. I would think if you didn't know to install a coil or cotton you may be in the wrong place. Lol

Been vaping on the new Rage squonker since Monday. So far I'm loving it!!! Fits better in the left hand but is comfortable to me in either hand. It has a little heft to it as it is a dual battery squonker but the pros far out number the cons....Now waiting on the Dovpo Basium and I'll be set for a while with dual battery squonkers :)

SO.. Which has more (better) airflow. Narca or Narda? iirc, the narda has larger slots.

I don't need to MTL on rsa's, but I am thoroughly tired of the tightness of the Hussar rta clone I have. (interesting design, miserable airflow - almost too tight for RTL)

NarCa has more air imo.

I don't do MTL, but I do like a medium restricted DL vape.

Ok so it's a cheap S Rabbit... pulled out the guts and cleaned/polished it all up...using a silicone bottle and it's not really all that bad in my opinion...Picked up a Morphe RDA and liking it so far with a single .4 ohm alien clapton.

If it works for you, you like the way it works and it is safe, who cares if it is cheap or not?
