So with the Goliath v2 just releasing in SA I would like to get a thread going to discuss builds, wicking, troubleshooting and general thoughts.
I'll start with some initial thoughts/impressions.
Pros:
- The plug to convert it to single coil is great. Fits in easily and I haven't had any leaking issues.
I love the fact that they included this and for me , it was the biggest selling point.
- I also like the inclusion of the ROCC heads which will be nifty to have if one doesn't have time to rebuild. Pop it in, juice it up and you're ready to go. It adds versatility to the device which is great.
I did not use it for very long but the flavour off the ROCC coil was not bad at all.
- The flavour I'm getting with the standard RBA base is fantastic. Miles ahead of the subtank with the RBA base and from my initial impression, better than the lemo 2.
The vape is certainly warmer than something like the lemo 2 which I'm assuming is attributed to the smaller chamber and shorter chimney. Which I'm also guessing is the reason that the flavour seems more full bodied.
- The airflow is also very customisable and easy to use. Stiff enough to make sure it doesn't just move when putting it in your pocket and loose enough to be easily adjusted.
At its widest setting it's very airy and I'm sure will please those who enjoy lots of airflow.
I have found a enjoyable draw with a balance between good flavour and vapor production which is with the afc halfway open. For comparison, with the afc half open, it's the equivalent to a lemo 2 wide open.
- It holds 5ml of juice and one can pull their build out without having to empty the tank.
Cons:
-The build quality is average. The threads are very tight and I had issues when tightening down the chimney a little too much. If I tried to unscrew it, it would unscrew the deck from the base. Then I would have to grab a pliers to hold a part of it down to remove it.
- The threading to get the deck section off is incredibly tight. So much that it's actually a pain to get off. Lol. I am hoping it will loosen over time
- The juice flow control ring is also very difficult to use. It has a smooth finish and so there's nothing to grip onto with your fingers to rotate it. It's even more tricky If you have a little juice on your fingers.
- The chimney piece is a one solid part. I would have preferred it to be two parts like most rebuildable tanks are.
Overall : I am really impressed with the flavour from this tank. I hope that the threads will loosen over time in order to be able to get the base out more easily.
I am currently running the following build in mine (forgot to take pics because I was so excited but promise to show some soon)
Single Coil
26g Ni200
2.5mm ID
9 Wraps (Spaced)
0.072 ohms
Koh Gen Doh Wick ( wick sitting slightly in the channels )
