I love my Orchid clones!



Got a V2 as well which is a massive improvement (has a bottom fill screw)

Hopefully the tobeco v4 should be with me today

The airflow is terrific on these atties and I find you can really pump some power through them.
Been vaping mine at 27W and its keeping up like a champ!

What a stunning review!

This atty looks like a must have.

Also, in the video you state the only negative is the little grub screws... Totally agree with you there but the new V3s and 4's actually come with proper Allen screws which is a major plus.

The thing that puts me off is the non adjustable airflow. Decent clearomizers have that option.
A decent dripper, like the Origen, is my choice for flavour. I've been looking for a rta that's smaller than the kayfun lite for out and about, but for me this won't do.

If you like the Origen, try a 454, Veritas, or Plume Veil, all of them surpass the Origen for flavour, vapour and air flow options imo. Sadly my Origen hardly gets a look in these days.
Plume is the nuts...

OK folks, appreciate your comments so far, but yet to be convinced. Two questions come to mind; firstly, do you have to put a dual coil setup in the Orchid, and also is the tank glass or PMMA/PC?
Keep the comments coming, if nothing else this is useful information for new vapers who want to go down this route!

I guess the Orchid could work single coil, but you might have to cover the air flow on the other side with your finger.
Tank is plastic like the kf, in fact I'm sure I read somewhere that the parts are interchangeable...
(Fogger v4 is very similar to the Orchid and has a glass tank & adjustable air flow)

As far as I can tell the Orchid v3 and v4 are the same, just 3ml and 4ml capacity respectively.

V4 has a taller chimney doesn't it?

I seriously get lost with what's what.. Everyday there is a new one out with a slight variation..

Copied and Pasted from FT:

Tobeco says "Orchid V4 is a superb Kayfun-style RBA. Version 4 features three redesigned tank sections that create a more elegant look, a Delrin insulated drip tip to regulate the temperature of your vape, and a redesigned top cap. Phillips post screws replace the original problematic hex screws. This clone by Tobeco is definitely a tank that should be in every vaper’s collection. The chimney is adjustable to set up the wick in the channels just right for that perfect vape."

Ain't got a clue if it's true or not as i don't have previous versions, only yesterday ordered the V4
