Review Geekvape Blitzen RTA

the straight glass arrived last week, will post a picture of it when I get back from work. I use my old tank at work for stealth vaping at my desk



I measure them by doing this and snipping it slightly before where the notch ends / begins depending on what way you look at it. Lines up the coils near perfect with the air holes (not sure if it shows up on the picture)

Thanks for this - yeah defo post me up a pic.... maybe a link to where you got the 4ml staight glass?
 
I've ordered 5 bubble tank sections from fasttech if anyone needs a spare or replacment
 
Forgot to take a picture of it last night, will try to remember again after work. Had to shelve it again, was being too lazy with the wicking. Instead of opening a new pack of cotton bacon, I tried using what was left and it tastes quite funky. Maybe rewick it this weekend.

It basically looks the same as any other tank with the straight glass. It still uses the extension chimney piece for the bubble tank, just the glass is minus the bubble. Fits like a glove, no complaints from me. Only place I could find it that wasn't selling it for stupid money was GB.

To be honest I like the look of the bubble tank :)

I don't mind the look of the bubble tank, I just found it stupidly fragile. One fall in the cup holder of my car and it broke into pieces.

There you go, looks pretty good on the evoke I think. Can't comment on if I notice the 1ml difference, haven't used it yet. Been too busy to try and rewick it

Thought I’d commented on this but obviously not...

Great review, and for me it speaks volumes that it’s something that you’ve kept using beyond the review! I often wonder how many of the tanks that are given glowing reviews by reviewers are still in use, and how many just get shoved back in the box and chucked to the back of a dark cupboard lol
 
View attachment 155059 Anyone who only vaguely knows me from here will know that my preferred way of vaping is DTL and sub ohm....low nic and high watts....

Now, you would think that those of us that are sub ohm vapers have a multitude of choices, with the seemingly endless releases on a weekly basis of a “new and improved” tank that brings something else to the “party”






Not so......






We either get a rehash of last weeks new best thing, or worse, a v2 of a really decent tank that turns out to be shit, with the only possible exception to this rule being the Geekvape Griffin 25+ which was a massive improvement on the standard Griffin 22, or the Steamcrave Supreme and Supreme +, both of which was an improvement of the standard Aromanizer....

Now I could make a list of rebuildable RTA’s that fail to live up to the hype (are you reading this Smok?) because every now and again a tank does arrive on the scene that whilst not being groundbreaking or revolutionary, or have some batshit mad design that uses some pseudo science to improve airflow and thus improve flavour by 0.02%

The tank I’m talking about is the Geekvape Blitzen RTA, and as I write this review, I’ll explain why it’s better then the Steamcrave Supreme+ and the Griffin 25+

Yeah, you read it right, this tank is an aromanizer beater.....

So....let’s take a look a little closer and see if my words can convince you....

As you see the tank comes with a few options.....a 2.5ml tank and a 5ml “bubble tank, which is what I used for he last week....

The tank has the normal base section with the now standard postless deck, which is an absolute doddle to build on, and allows the building of BIG coils. What I would say in relation to the build deck is that you will need to have the coils up fairly high to make sure that you make use of the airflow, build the coils to close to the base, and you miss out on a boatload of flavour. The airflow (as I’ve alluded to already) comes from the side, so it’s important to ensure that your coils line up straight.

Now, with your cotton, you can see (when I upload the video) there is a little well where your juice will flow into, and this is where you want to put your cotton....now this is virtually idiot proof and is VERY forgiving....with the 4 different builds, with various size diameters, the amount of cotton used doesn’t cause either gurgling or flooding, and so far, zero dry hits.

It’s top filling (is there any other?) and comes with a pretty 810 driptip....also in the bag of very comprehensive goodies, is a spare 810, and a 510 adaptor, so you can use your own 510 if you wish....



Now, what makes this better then the supreme+ and the griffin 25+?

Well it does everything just a little bit better....building on the deck is easy, and the flavour is truly stunning. The build quality is outstanding at this price point.

Now, usually at this point, when I receive something for review from @Healthcabin , I do a givaway....but I’m afraid with this one, it’s a keeper :)

This tank really is that good, and at $39.99 posted to your door, it’s a bargain
Great review.

I am looking for a new rta for work as my ijoy exo has had its day in the sun. How is it for leaking? Also, what is it like in single coil mode? Would you say it is juice thirsty?

If I get it I'll probably get the 4ml straight glass as not a fan of the bubble.
