Got the Youde Bellus RTA and am very pleased with it. It is superior in vapor production efficiency, taste, and just about every other way than the Subbox Mini and Lemo 2 which are the two RTAs I had. It produces more vapor per watt than the Subbox even with one coil (so I don't bother with both coils even, although I tried it) and it's roughly equivalent to the Lemo 2 in this regard. The tank is a solid true 5ml giving it the biggest tank. The juice channels are much better than either of the other units as well, and you can go with 70%/30 VG/PG chain vaping and not get a dry hit. Oh and by the way, it's cheaper than any of the other units too. Check it out.

I liked it so much I got two.
I bored out the air flow a bit, popped a pair of 0.8 fused Clapton build on it (32/36) and use it on my Noisy Cricket!

Vaping on it tonight

I liked it so much I got 6 :)

But than again I always buy multiple ones of the same tank. I only have a few different tanks, but I have plenty of each. I think that's more convenient than having lot's of different tanks, as the spares, the wicking, building etc. are the same.
I make sure when I pick a new tank that it's versatile, so I can use it in different setups (single coil, dual coil etc.). The Bellus fit this criteria....
So I have:
stealth: 9 goblin mini's and 6 goblin nano
multi-purpose: 6 bellus
bigger builds/clouds: 4 Indulgence Mutanks
factory coils: 5 Kabuki's

All the tanks I need in a loooong time......

Keeps it nice an thight, and only have to buy spares for a few types of tanks, which with vapocalypse comming is quite handy.

I love the Bellus but hate wicking it. I've gotten the process down, but it's finicky. Also, it tends to flood a little when filling.

It does have really nice smooth and swooshy airflow, a great top fill system, a reasonable build deck, and the build quality is fine. My wife uses it with a dual 28/34 Clapton build at .55ohm for cool but very flavorful vape. It's her favorite tank to date. ImageUploadedByTapatalk1455803365.089880.jpg

hehe to much diversity in tanks for me...this got to be a nightmare for spares.....at least some in my collection share spare glasses or bases LOL.....but you got some real nice spread going on there....lot's of nice tanks :) I've been temped by some of them, but really think there are just a small deviation from the tanks I already own, so I passed (but the griffin still has my attetion :)

I use the scottish roll method with wicking, never had a leak, and I fill with the AFC open and everything (just unscrew the topfil and fill her up)...never had a problem

Thought I'd add a bit here with my continued experience with the Youde. I managed to lose the metal piece that goes above the silicone for the single-coil configuration. Not sure how that happened, but honestly, it's ridiculously small and easy to lose. It seems to work without it just using the silicone, but that metal is supposed to keep the silicone down I think. Ironically I also lost the screw to one of my two subox minis because, again, that is also ridiculously easy to do.

Another complaint I have with the Youde is that when I close the air holes, fill it, and then reopen the air holes, I lose about 1/2ml of e-fluid out the air holes before the pressure equalizes. Last complaint is that you need to unscrew the entire head to really rewick whereas with the Subox you don't (also the Subox was, in my opinion, almost easier to fill than the top fill since when you unscrew the head you have a HUGE hole in a sense).

So the Youde is not exactly perfect, but it's a great value still. Of course I was really excited by the Youde when I first got it, but I'd say it roughly ties the Subox in overall performance when all is considered, unless you want a two coil device (then the Youde has it and the Subox doesn't).

Regarding the leaking after filling, I had the same problem with my mutank. Can't tell from your description if this is what you are doing but this worked for me.

Close the airflow, fill the tank, screw the top-cap just the first couple of threads, turn it upside down and quickly screw the top-cap the rest of the way, open the airflow and turn it back rightside up.

the mutank was my first top-fill tank but I plan on doing this with any others I get.

Yeah that sounds like a really good idea. I'll give it a whirl tonight! Thanks!

Hey, you know it worked! It sure would be nice if stuff like this was sort of all in one place. You probably just saved me bottles of juice over the next year. Thanks, man!

I love the bellus. I just recently got a moonshot , but went back to the bellus . the moonshot is for the occasional vape. Pain to use all day. You need to fill it like every half hour. But any way I guess you can say I'm a bellus fanboy.

I also find if its wicked good I can fill with out closing the airflow. But I use 100% VG with whatever pg gets added by my flavors. So I'm estimating 80vg20pg.
