Orieco Storm RDA, anyone used one? looks similar to origen

[jcol]

boyofford I recieved a Orieco Storm today, between your recommendation and the UKV thread it would be rude not to

All i can say is that it is very very good for the money.
With 3 holes open its a cloud chasers dream but with 1 hole or even 1/2 of one open the flavour is brilliant.
I am really happy with it, and thank you for putting up this thread

I am running dual microcoils at 0.7oHms and its just a brilliant vape
Bargain at £17

No worries, great bit of kit for the price ain't it.

I've had one of these for about 10 days now, and it's absolutely amazing for the price. I've built dual nanocoils and cotton, 0.85ohm or thereabouts, and it's caused me to start mixing at a lower nic strength and lower flavouring percentage. The only negative for me is that there's a tendency for juice to slosh out of the airholes - so, not really a device for out and about.

Looks pretty good, cheers for the pics. Not sure though I've not had too much luck with the airy drippers, probably should resist buying another one.

Super airy dripper got mine from here www.kernowvapes.co.uk/Orieco_storm-A_dripper/p2086842_11845938.aspx




I find the horizontal coils work better in this

I find the same if I keep it topped up, but I usually just fill up the wells before having a vape, by the end of which they are mostly empty!

I only use a small bit of cotton, and don't will the wells with wool which doesn't help with leakage but means I waste less juice when re-cotton which I tend to do daily for best flavour.

Thanks for the tip, i have mine vertical.
My setup sounds the same as remnant i have dual nanocoils (about 1mm diameter if this is right?) mounted vertically with just a light fluffy cloud of cotton in the wells.
I also just keep it topped up like boyofford, so i get no leaking.

Very impressed with this for what is effectively a budget RDA

I use 2.5mm or 3mm microcoils bud, wickes faster so only dryer hit if well empty.

I'm gona do a recoil tonight or tomorrow, I'll take a couple of pics.

For a budget RDA it does have some of the best features... though wells could be deeper, I thought they were from pictures before buying.

My O-rings are already starting to wear as I take the top off to will with just the right amount of juice god knows how many times a day!

Have you got any pics with cotton wool in the horizontal setup @tazmania441?
and pic to show how high you have it, just curious, might try it out at some point.

Sorry I don't have a pic I just treat it like a vertical and tuck the cotton wool into the well it uses more than you'd think tbh and I do 2mm coils 9/10 wraps of .28 to give me .7 ohm but I prefer single coils this sub ohm isn't for me lol

[boyofford]

0.7 ohms is.about right for me, lowest I've tried is 0.5 and it about chokes me!

Not sure how easy it would be but you could use a single horizontal above screw with wick going into both wells to make use of both.... and use single hole, should be big enough at higher ohms.

I think a single coil with the cotton in both wells would be a bit messy tbh but worth a go as it's easy enough to snip off excess cotton if it's no good. Let me know how you get on please

Not sure it will be for me to be honest, I like the 0.7 dual coil setup.
But think it could be done, sod it I'll have a go later, will try n post a couple of pics. But will probably rip out straight away n go back to my usual setup lol.

Well it was surprisingly easy to place the coil horizontal above the screw.

I took some picks, will have to post tomorrow now though if you want to have a look.

Did one micro coil using 0.25mm kanthal, about eight turns around a 2.5/3mm drill bit(I really should measure it as I've forgot!) Came out at 2.1 ohms.

Plenty of vaper for what it is, but I still prefer lower ohm setup for flavour and throat hit, but that's probably just because its what I'm used too.

Edit... Here's some pics and a video... I'll post them properly tomorrow when on computer www.dropbox.com/sc/7jtazrty0ycug03/VVT2EIqsyp

Sweet idea boyofford I would put more cotton in the wells less chance of sloshing but still banging out a cloud. Where did you position the air holes on the single set up?
