Evening you lot.
Kylin M RTA arrived today. Running on its standard kanthal mesh strips (0.15ohm) and the bundled cotton.
Initial thoughts are... its not great
I expected a LOT more.
I know this tank is considered "not for noobs" I don't consider my self as a noob when it comes to being able to build on or fix issues with rebuildables.
Running a 50/50 juice, I've rewicked numerous times I either get instant dry hit or huge flooding after Initial fill. Dry hits are happening well underneath the "recommended minimum" 40w of the strips.( wicks are loose enough without getting the deck flooded)
I'm having to run it at 30w to get even close to an acceptable vape but then vapour and taste take a dive.
As I write this I'm actually getting slightly dry hits whilst getting minor gurgling at the same time???
Pros:-
-The strips are easy to install.
-Beautiful tank, nicely made.
-Box comes with everything needed.
Cons:-
-Not as much air flow as I expected from reviews (drag behaviour changed as I'm used to a TFV12 on prebuilt mesh with a metric ton of airflow, the tight deck doesn't allow anywhere near TFV12 levels of airflow though)
-No where near able to chain vape as suggested by some other reviews
-wicking doesn't seem to have a happy median its either dryer than Aunt Sally or wetter than an otters pocket.
Anyone have any suggestions? Is it just not the RTA for me?
I'm currently voting
Would love to give but I just...can't
