I reckon you'll be pretty happy with the combo. I'm sure you've watched plenty of reviews already, so don't really need my opinion :)
I've been using the tank for the past hour or so and I'm pleased with it. Really smooth draw, tons of cloudage if that's your thing. Flavour is decent, although that's kinda dependent on your build and what you're used to.
I've been exclusively using a Pulse 24 and VLS for the past week or so and this is slightly muted in comparison, but I guess it's not totally fair to compare it to flavour oriented drippers.

Oh, and it chugs through juice!

Yeah, watched a fair few reviews, vaping with vic is my go to guy out of them all, then mike vapes for a view from across the pond.. Always good to hear from actual users experiences though.

I'm using ni80 coils right now, using these in my OBS Crius v2 atm - https://www.fasttech.com/products/0/10040549/9055918-authentic-vapor-storm-ni80-alien-v2-pre-coiled, got another couple of packs coming with my order. Nice quick ramp up time, very flavourful. Only thing with ni80 is I find they don't last that long.

I did have a big box of demon killer violence coils, which I might have to reorder for the Aromamizer, as I keep hearing it likes big meaty coils.
I've never been into dripping(never tried it tbh) i'm buying it to replace my trusty Avocado rdta, which has great flavour, but is refusing to unscrew now, so cant clean it out properly and the floaty cotton in the tank isn't great lol!

Most of the reviews on DH got wiped when they updated the website. By all means try it, but it falls very short of the original fantasi orange ice. If you do buy it, and not a fan, there are several FB groups where you can sell it on for a decent profit.

Think I might try the short fill bottle of it and see if it appeals to me. If it does then I’ll get the hackshot and if it doesn’t I’ll just vape till I finish it.

I do have a couple of juices that I’m not so keen on. Mamasan asap and purple cheesecake. Some people like them but I didn’t think much of them. Still have them and probably finish them off at some point.

I like vaping with vic, he seems to be pretty non biased. Same with vaping heathen and vapnfagn.

Mike vapes aka mike fakes?? Can’t stand him, his reviews are ok but I find he just likes every single thing out there. Too scared of narking off companies so they don’t send him free stuff lol.

As for wire?? Do you usually just buy premade coils?? I used to do that but now make my own coils with pre made wire.

Best wire I’ve used is this one from FT:
https://www.fasttech.com/product/8501105-kuken-tech-nichrome-80-muti-strands-fused-clapton

Wraps come out really nice and it’s pretty decent wire. I’ve noticed even with my coil destroying juices, this particular wire doesn’t get as gunked up as my other wires do. Change cotton, dry burn the coil and rinse under the tap and it looks brand new.
 
@IainR
You should be fine with those coils, although I hear 3.5mm or so is the sweet spot. @DrToffnar may be able to advise you.

Not tried dripping eh? I really think you should look into squonking. All the delicious benefits of a dripper without having to drip, or carry around an extra bottle. It's a game changer. Only slight issue is that dual battery squonk mods are the size of triple battery mods if you don't fancy the shorter battery life with a single.

Yes, plus his wicking techniques seem spot on

I get the same feeling, but he wicks things differently, so I check him out if im having an issue.

Yes, premade coils. I have all the tools in my vape kit to make my own, but just never have! It's next on my to do list!

I just don't think it's for me. I have a tank for work, OBS engine, wont leak on me, ever! I have(had) an rdta for home, avocado, which is now dead to me. I don't vape in the house (until mrs is in bed!) I've also got or had reload clone, advken manta (lovely but leaky), serpent smm (lost on exercise on salisbury plain) etc etc...
Drippers just sound like to much of an effort, in my line of work, a tank works best.

I used to think the same with squonking but I decided to give it a go. So bought the cheap Vandy vape pulse bf mech squonk mod and a dead rabbit rda with a squonk pin. Honestly soon as I started to vape on it, I was hooked and I thought it would be too much faffing around but honestly it isn’t.

But I’ve ditched the pulse bf for a hotcig rsq squonk mod. Single battery regulated 80watt mod. And absolutely love it to bits, so much so that I’ve ditched all my tanks other than my serpent smm which I still use now and again.
Flavour wise both my dead rabbit and dead rabbit sq completely blow the serpent smm and all my other tanks out of the water. I’ve also bought the very expensive psyclone Mods Entheon rda which is another awesome flavour squonk rda. I suppose for £80 it had better be lol.

But I wouldn’t dismiss squonking, seems to be getting more and more popular. And there are some cheap options to get into it without spending lots of money.

Gotta give props to Wotofo on this Bravo tank. Bit finicky to build but the flavour is great. I've put the bubble tank on it for the time being, but you do get a normal looking one.

What’s it like for juice consumption?? Similar to the smm??
Heard very good things about the bravo, but not sure if I need another tank as I mainly squonk now.
 
Gee said:
Can't really comment on the juice consumption mate tbh. Never been an issue for me as I make my own.

No what I mean, like the smm does it drink juice like it’s going out of fashion??

With my smm I’m having to refill the tank every hr or so as it just eats juice.

I can see it probably being an issue with the smaller tank on it, but with the bubble tank it seems to last a fair while. I've said before anyway, if a tank is rinsing juice, it's a sign it's wicking well!

Oh definitely, the smm is just so easy to wick and it drains juice fast but I don’t mind it too much. I just hate faffing around trying to wick my other tanks properly.

I may get a bravo at some point, might go for the money money version aka gold lol.
 
Anyone with a smok v8 big baby have issues with the coils? Last few have literally lasted hours before they were burnt, time before lasted about 2 weeks......

Had a silver Hotcig RSQ squonk mod arrive this morning lovely little mod perfect for what I want, running a Pulse 24 on it at present in squonk mode.

Got the 24mm dead rabbit arriving tomorrow just need to get a 30ml 510 squonk refill bottle then I am sorted.

Was going to get the Wismec Luxotic squonk kit but tbh the regulated RSQ mod is so much better for my needs.

Cheers all

I don’t use smok tanks but I’ve heard their QC isn’t that great for their coils.

Nice one, I’m sure you will love it to bits. I use mine all the time and it’s an awesome little squonk mod.

Yes definitely get a squonk refill bottle, makes life so much easier when refilling the squonk bottle. I’ve got 2 of them, got them from fasttech and were very cheap.

Good choice on the dead rabbit 24mm, works brilliantly in a dual coil setup but you can set it up for single coil use as well. But I suggest putting a big beefy coil of you are going to use it in single coil mode. The dead rabbit sq is a single coil rda and is another brilliant rda. I find running the dead rabbit 24mm in single coil a bit too airy as it’s really a dual coil rda and that’s where it shines the best.
