Need a new regulated squonker - Vandy Vape Pulse 80w or Hotcig RSQ?

[tomhirvin]

My Wraith has finally given up the ghost and i'm in the market for a new regulated squonker.

These two have just come out and look pretty similar. The Pulse is 3D printed but seems to have a respectable chip and takes a 20700. The RSQ is made of zinc alloy and I don't know much about the chip, except you can update it. RSQ is a little more expensive but not much.

Not too many reviews out there. Does anyone have any opinions they could share?

At the moment leaning towards the RSQ just because it's not plastic but I do have a 20700 batter kicking around so perhaps the Pulse...

What about the Aleader killer 80w mod

@MrTeaTime reviewed it not long ago and it looked quite good

I’ve got the rsq, good lil regulated squonker for the price. Have had zero issues with it so far.

I’ve got a aleader killer (v1 resin) and it leaks like a siv!
I will 200% be picking up a pulse 80 when it’s released

+1 for the RSQ, also had zero issues with it, but it's hard to compare it to a mod that's not even released yet...

i had an rsq arrive today. very impressed indeed, its very compact and great build quality. the led is quite useful as well to enable easy viewing of the juice level.
battery life is quite acceptable too.

actually prefer it to my therion 75C bf.

The RSQ is indeed a very nice bit of kit. Cannot comment on the Pulse.

 

[eyeball kid]

Been lucky with the aleaders. First one seeped but it wasn't a difficult fix and to be honest I think I over engineered the fix as all it really needed was tightening.
The rsq looks fantastic and no real issues that I've heard about apart from the paint flaking.
I'm sire the pulse will be fine. The bottle system has already been tried and tested in the mech version.

After a couple of months with the RSQ I have had a pinhead-sized bit of paint detaching from near the battery door, but that might just have been me being clumsy: elsewhere the paint is still in mint condition.

I hear Voopoo have an 80w regulated squonk box coming out.
