I read comments in more than a few threads about the various UD Goblins.
On the strength of those I took advantage of a closeout sale at Mt. Baker Vapor, and bought two.
Mebbe one would have been enough.
I have to admit that I am judging them in comparison to my Augvape Merlin. My first and up to now only RTA. It sets a very high bar.
By comparison the Goblin is an incredible PITA to build, wick, assemble, and fill.
It gives good vape once you make it through all that. I built it (I'm a flavor chaser) with two 2.5mm - 28ga. round Kanthal - eight turn spaced coils which ended up at 0.85ohms. Excellent flavor. And it's easy to see that it wouldn't disappoint a cloud chaser either.
Thank gods for the 5ml tank that comes with it as an extra. At least I don't have to go through the hassle of filling it very often.
I'm not sorry I bought them, although I might not have gotten two had I known what a chore they are to build. I'd rather save the bucks for another Merlin.
If they are to your taste the closeout at MBV is $4.99 each.
They're also dumping the UD Goliath at $9.99 each.
I got a couple of them too, but I haven't built one yet.
ETA: I see I goofed the thread title. Supposed to be "... for folks that like them."
Duh. I'll see if I can get a mod to fix it.
ETA 2: Be advised. The cheap bastards didn't include a drip tip with this variant. It takes a standard 510 size.
