The Blotto RTA by Vaping Bogan and Dovpo

very much interested in hearing your thoughts about this one...temptation is strong. LOL
 
I'm also super keen to hear your thoughts skipper and if all fails for you, dibs!
 
Heads up all... the legs of a single-coil go on the same side... don't be a silly goose like me and destroy 2 coils wondering why it wasn't working... I don't do manuals but a quick pic to @BigGuy sorted my issue... I don't do manuals!

The build is pretty simple and I was recommended to use a lot of cotton which I did and was a piece of cake to wick! I'm using a single 3.5mm Alien that comes out at 0.49Ω and started at 35 watts but have moved back to my 28 watts which is better for me!

I hate 810 drip tips and especially the very short ones it comes with... and my beloved towers tips look funny with an 810 to 510 adapter because of the gap! Luckily I have a decent 810 Tower which looks good on it and works for me!

The box says 2ml and 6ml with the bubble glass but it's no 2ml tank and I think they only say that to get around the TPD crap!

I'm not sure I like the "bottle top" look but it is different and a bit kewl!

The airflow ring works well and the airflow is very smooth and I like that! I can't decide if I prefer it half-closed or fully open... but I think I prefer it full open.

It's wicking well and not a hint of a dry hit... Bazinga!

It's a 25mm tank so it doesn't fit on most of my high-end gear without a slight overlap so I have it on the baby Aegis.

I like the fact it comes with two spare bubble tanks but I must say I do prefer a glass tank so I'm using the one it came installed with. But the extra juice will be good for out and about.

Top fill is easy and works well!

I think this will suit those that like dual coils and bigger wattage but I must say running it at 28 watts with my 0.49 Alien it's doing a pretty good flavour job which has surprised me.

The big test for me was the refill... I was worried that juice would seep out of the airflow at the bottom on the refill... I must have wicked it well because there was no leakage!

So far, this is impressing.

Gooied in 2x Boom Fused 27’s and the vape is pretty damn good. Airflow is smooth man smooth and the flavour is seriously good.

Also like the way it looks. Just not sure I would run it in bubble glass mode - makes it into quite a fatty. Anyway, the capacity with the straight glass is more than sufficient for me at least.

Loving the vape experience of the blotto. Definitely not the best flavor atty out there.... But it's one of the better Chinese ones. The restricted af is just perfect for me

So after a few more days now, how is everyone who has the RTA finding it. I'm seeing all the reviewers rave about the flavor off this thing and then i saw @KZOR saying its good but not great so in 2 minds now about whether to purchase or not
 
I love mine hey. I've actually retired my rebirth RTA when i got the Blotto. Flavour is on point and the airflow is sooooo super smooth.

What rta are u currently using and hoping the blotto will be similar to or beat?

Using a reload on the Double barrel and my second reload bent so need to replace with either another one or a blotto. Even if it's similar but not as good the price point makes it more attractive than another reload.
 
I'm with Todd on this one although I think I experienced better flavor than he did.
Think they just messed up the AF ring a tad too much.
It is definately a good RTA which has received more attention than it deserves. Will watch how many reviewers that praised it so highly will use it in the weeks to come during reviews and live shows.

Ive used it side by side with my reload, it's a good rta and produces great flavour but I somehow feel the rebirth and even my Omni shado beat it on flavour. I haven't had a lot of time with it, I used it for a day as it is not my Blotto but that's what my feelings are. It's less restricted than the rebirth but the flavour I got off the rebirth was a bit better Imo.

Must still get a tauren beest as highly recommended by @KZOR, I just hate how those post screws angle in on the coil leads

That's also my issue with the beest. Thank you for the feedback. Back to looking for another reload then lol. Stick to what you like I guess
 
Been using my Blotto exclusively the last week and the more i use it the more impressed I am .....

Yes there has been a bit of a hype train , but I think due to the name behind it everyone seems to hype it just that bit more ;)

The Short 'n Sweet , this atty just "works" much like the Reload I'm sure if you spend enough time with it you will get similar to better flavour out of it than the Reload ;P . It;s sure to become a workhorse in my arsenal .....

Everyone is banging in these huge 3mm duals , I think 2.5mm is the sweet spot for this atty in Dual
Single you can go up to 4mm imo .....

Pros
Fantastic build quality , smooth threads
Single and Dual coil options , both perform well
Smooooooooth airflow
Easy build deck
Wicks like a champ , tested chain vaping at 55W single and 75W duals and it keeps up no problem.

Cons
Looks fugly with the bubble tank
Design aesthetics not necessarily for everyone
It is quite a large atty so might not fit on all mods
With the small airflow holes on AFC it can be difficult to gauge where you at closing down airflow
 
Have been using the blotto also for a week now and have had ZERO problems. Being an exclusive dripper, I was pleasantly surprised by its flavour production, ease of build and exceptional airflow. No problems with the glass, no problems with the thin metal - no problems at all.

I stuck dual 2.5mm fused claptons in her which and she's been delivering all the way.

Do it...

the bottle cap design aesthetics are what i like about it. something different. agree with the comment about the fugly bubble tank, but the capacity with it is great.

I must say, bubble tanks never looks "right" to me. I rather suffer with regular tank refilling

I tried one out on Saturday for a few hours, and it was pretty good with a dessert juice in it. I must say, the atty really brought out alot of the sweetness in the juice. Airflow was great and smooth, wicking was great as well.

Was considering getting one to try. then i saw a post where someone had their post (see what i did there!) split in two.

Yes this was mentioned in @KZOR 's last live feed , and also that it might have been an once off issue with a weak spot in the metal.
Maybe uncle @KZOR can confirm with the owner , as we don;t want to create false negative publicity if it was indeed an isolated incident .....

Also those coils look very beefy and round might have also contributed ......

User (possible noob) error here I'm afraid = he simply tightened the screws too much/with too much force. If you read the entire story, this was the third set of coils he installed... Now, why would you install 3 sets of coils in an atty only a couple of days old? Sure, he may have experimented with various coil options but this is user error... It's the same as blaming a mech mod for blowing in in your face...not the mod's fault I'm afraid...

This is also true and possible. Intention was not to blame anyone or anything. Apologies if it has come across that way.
