If I could find a RBA with a tank that is as easy and straightforward as the IGO, I would buy one in a flash

One word of advice on this one (agi)
If you want to buy them as a dripper that's fine

If you want to use or ever plan on using it as a genesis style with the tank...

I got 2 of those and straight out of the box I had to mod them before they would actually work.

You build a coil in the dripper and test the resistance = 1,2 ohm
You add the bottom part to make it a tank and test the resistance = anywhere from 1,5 to 2,8 and crap vapor production

The cause:
There is a spring inside the middle part to connect the base of the tank with the base of the dripper.
When you apply current the spring suddenly shrinks and makes a bad/faulty connection
There are some videos on youtube on how to fix it (basically get a brass pin that fits instead of the spring).

I started fiddling with them at 10pm so no hardware stores open and really wanted them to work so ended up demolishing a vivi nova and a clearo to get all the parts I needed to make a good connection :s
Once that was/is done it's working great tho but what a hassle to get it up and running

Thanks for the heads-up testdruif - I'm going to shop around and harvest some more opinions first before spending my hard-earned anyway, but I'll bear that in mind
