Finally a post office slip arrives… order was paid for on the 18th June in the UK… and the parcel just arrived… yes they were waiting for stock but it was still a long time! What is in the parcel you ask? Well as you can see it was the long awaited Cyclone AFC!
I had to order a bottom fed standard one and then the AFC one as well which is a standard deck… so I now have a standard Cyclone Dripper and an Bottom fed AFC…
The AFC is a very tight fit on the new version 2 deck and I hope that our order direct from Vicious Ant are a little less tight...
The Standard one is the version one with the concave deck and the AFC came with the new flat deck... for those of you that like a airy air flow you will love the AFC version... I had to close my air flow to a similar sized hole to the standard one to find my happy place so the AFC version for me is pretty much like feeding strawberries to pigs! However... one thing I have learnt in this game is that tastes and juices and airflow do change and I have no doubt that I will learn to enjoy looser air flows as well as lower resistance coils as I have been doing slowly already.
Version 2 also does away with the allen key and now has phillips head screws. The AFC also has the option for either single or dual coils.
Here is a picture of Amanda with the AFC version and Erica with the standard Cyclone!
OK so how does it vape? I built a 1,2Ω single micro coil and gave it a cotton wick. It's a great vape and I'm still of the opinion that the Cyclone is the best bottom fed option for a REO. It beats the RM2 because of the ability to handle over squonking and then the ease of the changing of the wick each day because it's a pull off top... I think the vape quality of the two is so close to call although I give it to the Cyclone but that may just be because I like the Cyclone.
For those interested in costs... the two Cyclones (one AFC and one Standard), with a couple of spares cost R2,200 buying it from the UK.
