Oh wow, like I need another squonk RDA!
Oh wait, yes I do.
So far I have:
Hadalay = good flavour but squonk air holes are very low, tends to piss out of the air holes
Oatty = great, angled airflow holes means you can squonk more BUT the centre pin isn't actually fixed to anything other than the insulator. now when I screw it down the entire centre pin disappears up the 510 and pushes the insulator off the deck. Not sure if this is my shitty clone or a fundamental design flaw? It's the Shenray version from Hotecig, so usually decent.
Anyway, Maze v3 looks good and has shipped from FT.
Speed Revolution looks good too.
Edit for great justice:
OAtty, the positive pin insulator (2nd bit from the right next to the pos pin) is only held in to the 510 by sheer willpower (read: friction) The inside of the 510 on the atty itself is unfinished and has some ridges offering some purchase, but not quite enough on the smooth insulator. (Confession, I probably made it worse by fucking about dismantling the thing half a dozen times seeing how it all went together/cleaning it).
Anyway, solution.
Very gentle application of the insulator to some 600 grit sandpaper around the insulator circumference so the resulting abrasions matches the ridges on the inside of the atty 510. We're not trying to remove material, just rough it up a bit. Result: insulator sticks like shit, cashback.
Resist further desire to fuck about with said insulator and don't horse the atty down on the mod.
