Evil Eye RTA by EhPro...26650 Orchid?

[Jamandre]

Well EhPro has a new 26650 rta/rba that seems to have a Orchid deck. This will be very interesting, could it be the Big Buddha V2?

Some details I found so far.

This is the latest 26650 atomizer by Ehpro the Evil Eye. If you are looking for a rta that can rip clouds this is the atomizer. This atomizer has two adjustable airflow screws on the side if you like a tighter draw, or you can take them completely out if you like alot of airflow. This has a great building deck similar to the orchid deck.


Features:

• 26650 Rebuildable Atomizer
• 304 Stainless Steel
• Blue and Black PVD Coated NOT PAINTED
• 8ml Capacity
• Dual airflow & Airflow control
• Drip Tip Included
• Also Extra Orings & Glass Tank Included

If you guys find any more info on this bad boy, you know where to post it. Thanks

Its nicer looking then the Big Buddha, but the Orchid style wicking is a big turn off, especially when dealing with such a large liquid capacity.

Well, I like the two piece chimney, glass tank and raised airhole. Not a lot different from the Billow but for the chimney and size. I wasn't a fan of the Billow, but for someone looking for a 26650 Orchid with a glass tank, I'm sure this fits the bill.

That blue looks really nice. Maybe I need to grab a 26650 mod now..

That's pretty cool.I love my orchids,but the 26650 orchid looks like a flop,as it is not even close to the same design as the smaller ones,but this looks like Ephro may have nailed it.I'll definitely be picking up one of these.

 

[Jamandre]

Just ordered one. Not too bad of a price ($36.99 free shipping). I'll give it a go and report back soon.

If you look at my avatar, you can tell I'm a big fan of the Big Buddha. I like the looks of this one, and the build deck looks well laid out, if you prefer the Orchid style to two side-by-side Kayfun style coils. I think the Orchid style will likely be a little more prone to leaking than the Big Buddha. I'm not a fan of the glass tanks, though, because they're more complicated than a simple pyrex tube, so will be more costly to manufacture and replace. I'm also not quite sure what's going on with the tanks on this one, one tank seems to have a larger diameter than the other, so I don't understand how they both seal.

Since the Big Buddha is a great atty but is still far from mainstream (people just aren't that interested in the 26650 form factor), I imagine this one won't be much more popular. But, I could be wrong! If I didn't have the Buddhas, I'd be happy to buy this, but I don't feel like I'm missing anything.

Hey Papa, ditto. I love my fat form factors! I guess that is why I wanted to give this one a go. Would look good on my 2Six I hope.

My thoughts exactly. With such a large space, they could have gone with Aqua style wicking, and I'd have already ordered.

Ebay link is dead, nothing for searches. Anyone found a us vendor on this?

Pyrex is tempered glass. This unit has Pyrex glass.

I want one, but I'm leery of the air intake holes. I drilled my Orchid holes to 7/64" (0.78mm larger than this EHPro) and couldn't be more satisfied. The sleeve inserts in this EHPro might make that impossible.

I wasn't clear. I love glass tanks, including pyrex glass tanks, but I'm not a fan of these glass tanks on the Evil Eye, because the shape is complex. That will make it much harder to get replacements, and if EHPro stops manufacturing them, you probably won't be able to get them anywhere else. Most glass tanks are simple tubes that are pretty easy to make (I've even made my own Big Buddha tanks out of 30mm OD glass jars).

No, and I was just looking because I wanted to pick up another 30mm atty to go with a black 26650 Stingray clone I just got. I ended up getting a Big Black Buddha on eBay instead, and it was only $33.29 including shipping (I think I'm prepared for the vapeocalypse now).

It is working again and Vaportrends is the one selling them. I have bought two of them and love them!

Now I'm a little sad that for $2.70 more, I could have ordered an Evil Eye in black instead of a Big Buddha in Black. *shrug*

I wonder if a straight glass tank would work. It looks like it might from the photos, but you'd lose a little capacity.

I don't think you'll be sorry the BB is awesome after you give it a Lil more air flow.

And ditch the awful drip tip.

I bet it would. It's nice that the Evil Eye comes with a spare tank, though.
