Hi All, Has anyone used one of these before?? If so, what are they like and how easy are they to re-coil etc, I am starting to think about trying this coil building/repairable atomiser game and thought £10 on eCigWizard was not a bad price to try before plunging into the more expensive ones available. www.madvapes.com/the-octopus-rda.html(Have posted this link as there are no pictures etc on eCigWizards site atm to show you what I am rambling on about!!) Many thanks Di

I tell you what Di,that is a nice find and looks very interesting and worth a buy at that price.Rebuildable dripping attys are a doddle and a good way to get into using rebuildables.

It looks similar in concept to the Clockworks RDA and igo-l. I'm not sure where all that wick would go, it looks like it would fill the atty body! I like the idea of thumbscrews to attach the coil, although when you have one sitting in front of you the screws will be tiny. But - at a tenner it's got to be worth a shot

I'm sure it could be wicked with fewer strands - but then you couldn't call it the Octopus. Quadruped doesn't have the same ring to it

Googled the RDA and you-tube have a couple of videos about it (only wish I could speak french as good up-close review that makes rebuild look easy! ??... Yeah like thats going to happen for me!)
Will muse for a while longer .... would need all the bits and pieces to go with... mmmm....

Good spot Di. I was looking at these on Gotvapes the other day but didn't fancy the postage so was wondering when they would arrive in the UK. They certainly look interesting - not sure I would bother with 8 wicks though

Well.....
after four hours or more of "do I buy?.... (*puts in basket).... NO!! You'll never be able to use it.... (*removes from basket) .... heck it's £10, so it's cheap enough to give it a go.... (*puts back in basket) .... but you're not technically minded.... (*removes from basket) etc, etc!!
I've come to this conclusion.... It's my Birthday today and I've got some birthday money to spend (been told i have to spend it on me too!!!)
So.... I've gone and bought one.... now where to get wire and wick???
(Only hope I don't take as long to make a decision on those!!! Lol)
Thanks for all the input guy's!!!
