Where can I buy an authentic Reload RTA or does anyone know of a solid clone, there are so many on Ebay and I've heard nothing but good things about this RTA, I don't want to be soured by a crappy clone.

On a side note, I purchased the Vandy Vape Kylin RTA as my first RBA in general and was not a huge fan. I could never get that stupid thing to get enough juice to the wick no matter how I wicked it. I must've watched about 25 videos on it and it just didn't ever get better. I am assuming that the Reload RTA is far better. I'm loving my Profile RDA on the Recurve Squonk, I'm not sure flavor can get that much better, but I'm always flavor chasing.

I got mine from ecigone. I dunno if it's in stock but it's for sure better than the Kylin. I found the Kylin had to much air and mine also leaked from the 510 pin. I don't know if the Kylin v2 fixed the issues but I can bet the Reload is better. That is my favourite RTA. If someone's on a budget though I recommend the Ijoy exo. Before I got my Reload that was my favourite dual coil RTA. I haven't kept up recently so there might be better tanks now. I strictly MTL now. Went full circle from 70-100 watts with lots of air to 1 ohm coils at 15 watts :)

It's not quite a reload, but if you're concerned over clones maybe consider the advken manta. Looks very similar, deck's a bit different. From multiple reviews seems the takeaway is that the manta has more airflow (though can be closed down) and both have very similar flavor. Not sure if it matters much, chinese clone vs chinese authentic but the 'authentic' manta rtas are cheap. Gearbest has them for $21 free shipping.

The Manta always leaked for me and no where near matched the Reload in flavour but they do use the same bubble glass
Maybe the wicking, I never get leaks. Only time it drips just a little is when refilling but then I don't bother closing the airflow and it's got no jfc. A quick purge and wipe and it doesn't leak at all and doesn't always seep even when filling. Far as flavor, can't compare personally since I've never used a reload. Just going by what several reviewers have said. I enjoy the flavor on mine, but as with anything mileage may vary and depends on coils, placement etc. I get pretty solid flavor using 3 or 4 core fused claptons around 6-7 wraps 2.5-3mm id just a mm or so above the airflow. Not sure if it's any different than what you're using, I typically use juice between 65 and 80% vg.

I tried several builds and dint get the flavour that all the reviewers go on about. Not saying the flavour is complete dog shite cos it isn't. Just get more flavour from the Reload and Ijoy exo.

With some juices the flavor I am getting from the Reload RTA is better when compared to even the best of the best RDAs. This is something I didn't think was possible with an RTA, and, as a matter of fact IME it still isn't... with only ONE exception, and that's the Reload RTA. And yeah, most if not almost all of the reviewers are way often completely full of dog shite, which is only natural of course, but part of the problem IMO is too many people either don't know what's out there or they don't know how to use it properly to be anywhere close to getting the most from it, or the combination of both. Real, worthy, high end products that are truly high end performance capable are easily getting drowned out by the sewage coming from the lower segment of the mid-range mass crowd because that's just how the marketing usually works... it just simply never stops because stupidity never stops either.

agree with skold here the manta leaks too easily with condensation build up

Reload is a great RTA better than the Manta and Kylin IMO ...did try all three together

worth buying a bubble tank for the reload though unless you dont mind refilling frequently

I totally agree with everything you've said there. Everything is just mass produced so people go for lower priced products and they won't pay more for what it is definitely the best tasting RTA on the market! And that's been a problem since the vape game started. There is always some stupid asshole preaching to the choir, just like there is to much stupidity in society.

I use the straight tank, even though it's less capacity I think bubble glasses are ugly as fuck. I only use them if it's the only option. Even if the straight glass is only 2ml I still use the straight glass and that's quite often the case cos I'm in the UK with the crappy TPD. Some attys have a rubber bung you can remove but not all have them. When I used the Cleito 120 however I did use the bubble glass cos fuck 2ml tank an 100 watts!!

Same deal here in Belgium with the crappy TPD. And yes, only use bubble glass if you have a goldfish or a yellow warning vest. :cuss2:

I'll have to pick up a reload at some point. I swear it's the only rta I've not seen any complaints about.

ok. I got my Reload clone. black. the build quality on this one is very nice, as good as any of the other attys I have.
with one exception = the cap, the edges are kinda sharp. no biggie. but would be much better if they had tumbled it.

the top piece that the cap screws to(whats that called ?). the O-ring. with the bubble glass. the top of the glass looks to go over the o-ring, not on it. so idk if that is going to leak.

also. the airflow ring. the hash marks = is your 3D or painted on. mine are painted on.

I've got 2 clones from FT and a authentic and see no differance in the flavor. One of the clones seeped around the afc but I put a new o ring on and its been fine since. And really don't see a lot of differance in the threading.
Just my 2 cents.

I was looking at RDAs yesterday. The reload deck looks a lot like the original Phobia.

I got mine on ebay. it did not list a name brand. but mine has the R on the chamber and fonts on the bottom. . idk if all of em do or not. but some listing don't show it. and some don't have the fonts on the bottom = they show that it doesn't.

did any of you try the little coils that come with the clone ? they look stainless, but I don't know.

ok, so I put in the coils that came with it, I believe them to be Kanthal.
lots of nice airflow.

Hands down the Reload X RDA for me. But still I like the Terk v2 RDA (black version, with the gold plated build deck) better.

Yeah I found a Reload X on here for a good price. I liked the deck on that one better than the S. Thanks!

How would you compare the Reload RTA to the Aromamizer Supreme v2, flavor wise? I see the Reload doesn't have a JFC, does it flood or leak when refilling?

I think the Reload RTA doesn't compare to any other RTA flavor wise. Flavor wise it has much more in common with typical high end RDAs... on par, yet different in the particular sense that some juices (e.g., Jam Monster) taste very noticeably better in the Reload RTA when compared to a high end RDA, at least for me... but the Reload RTA the only way I like to vape on it is by using high wattages with Nichrome 80 handbuilt dual coil aliens for maximum flavor performance, whereas the vast majority of RDAs that I own also give me the option to try other coil builds, usually at even higher wattages for the flavor also.
