The DAWG is generally similar indeed, but it still ain't the Lotus. I'll be interested in that comparison too.the dawg rta deck is similar as well.

That said, I just cannot get myself to actually get into clones. I'm not even sure I can put my finger on exactly why yet.
i'm not even saying I'll never buy one. It's not even just about build quality for me either. I don't know what it is.I WAS the exact same way. UNTIL I got my hands on this one. now, I'm not saying that it is as nice as an authentic, I know it's not.
at least, I hope its not.
but, as far as I can see, it is just as good where it counts.

I'm really looking forward to the Lotus. I plan to so a comparison with the Lotus, Blitzen, Reload and aromamizer V2.1. Thats if the boat ever gets here, lol.I will be very interested in your impression.
I just hit that setup I showed the other night with my VK530/SS Lotus and I just can barely imagine that pair ever being out of my rotation. SO trouble free and fabulous.
The dawg looks interesting but I just cannot get past the name and the obscenely large letters. Good gawd, lol.The DAWG is generally similar indeed, but it still ain't the Lotus. I'll be interested in that comparison too.
Seems like I remember Valuna V2 is supposed to have better posts than Dawg, or something like that. Similar/same flavor. I think it was Vic.The dawg looks interesting but I just cannot get past the name and the obscenely large letters. Good gawd, lol.
I looked at the Valuna and it looks good but for dual coils I definately want a postless deck. The intrepid has a similar deck style like the dawg, lotus and reload.Seems like I remember Valuna V2 is supposed to have better posts than Dawg, or something like that. Similar/same flavor.

Oh, yeah. Just refresheded my remembery and Valuna V2 has Manta style posts. Manta is a great vape and pretty tank, but the posts were a pita for me.I looked at the Valuna and it looks good but for dual coils I definately want a postless deck.

The Intrepid is an excellent DC RTA too. Got one during the holidays.I looked at the Valuna and it looks good but for dual coils I definately want a postless deck. The intrepid has a similar deck style like the dawg, lotus and reload.

How do you like the flavor? I was looking at it myself.The Intrepid is an excellent DC RTA too. Got one during the holidays.
The flavor is really good with the right build. Lots of airflow with this one though and it has these interchangeable ceramic inserts that go in the deck under the coil/s for dual and single builds.How do you like the flavor? I was looking at it myself.
Yeah, I think Ill pass then. I get the idea behind the inserts but Id rather get an rta thats designed for dual coils. Definately getting a reload, probably two, and might give the coilart mage 2019 a try. Cant get the new Mage out of my mind which is usually a good sign that ill like it. Had the same thing with the Blitzen and when I finally got around to getting it, I loved it.The flavor is really good with the right build.

I don't think it would probably have as wide an appeal for RTA lovers as the Lotus though. It can mute and be fiddly with coil size and placement, but great when you find your sweet spot.
After watching some videos on the intrepid I've changed my mind. I like it alot and should be right in my wheelhouse for airflow and with the right coils, flavor. Myvpro has them for $16 and in black. Think I'll grab two for that price, lol.The flavor is really good with the right build.

If you can get through a few wickings without it leaking, then you've done something.Fasttech sent me a replacement that hasnt leak on me over a week now so it has 100% nothing to do with wicking its all come down to manufactor problem, defected batch or something.

You go though coils and wicks fast, don’t you. It’s that I’ve seen so many reports of 2 or more weeks of ownership before a leak. That makes me think that AF insert alignment isn’t the only issue.replacement that hasnt leak on me over a weekWhat do you mean? New one havent leaked a drop after 4+ wicks and 2 different coil setupsIf you can get through a few wickings without it leaking, then you've done something.
Did you get your Lotus yet?What a shame. I really like the build deck and the looks of the tank. But I'm so glad I passed on this one.
Sigh, nope not yet. I checked today and it still hasn't gotten into the hands of USPS. Guess it's still in the container or hanging out in customs, lol.Did you get your Lotus yet?
It;s been at least a month. I know what you're going through.Sigh, nope not yet. I checked today and it still hasn't gotten into the hands of USPS. Guess it's still in the container or hanging out in customs, lol.
Yeah the lotus was shipped February 27th but there's no telling how long it took for the boat to actually leave the dock. Maybe by the 4th of July, lol.It;s been at least a month. I know what you're going through.
What color did you get again?Yeah the lotus was shipped February 27th but there's no telling how long it took for the boat to actually leave the dock. Maybe by the 4th of July, lol.
Black with race red o-rings.What color did you get again?

Here is the simple round wire titanium build I have in my first one right now. I am still smacking the taste off my palette as I type this, after drinking water and last hitting it several minutes ago. No gurgle, spitback or leaking. Ever. Just rich, juicy, thick flavorful vapor.I just got mine black on black augvape200 sexy as hell 100% perfect color match.
But i cant say its better than my kylin v2. I feel its better flavor on kylin must be that it has airflow not only on the sides but under the coils also. Kylin hits you much harder, half way open and flavor is banging and its just a whole other experience.
The lotus is less airflow and less hard hitting, like you want to fill the lungs fast but still feel that flavor and airflow, hard to describe.
First i hated the lotus, but then i moved the coils out from airflow a bit so it got more airy and i liked it. Use it everyday but kylin i rate higher.
