Review of Vandy Vape RATH RDA
It is unlikely that any vaper interested in the development of vape market will argue that the main direction in which the last couple of years vape manufacturers are working are submods and POD-systems. Compact size, autonomy, the possibility of steaming liquids on salt nicotine are the main features of such devices, but if you want to get the most rich taste or reveal the flavor of the original mix, it is worth to get a drip from the shelf. Especially for such vapers Vandy Vape company once again released a traditional RATH RDA drip-atomizer, which though is not revolutionary in its design, but still has a number of features that can please users.

Appearance and Design
If you look at the range of Vandy Vape, you can see quite an interesting feature they have only two submods (Kylin M AIO and Jackaroo Pod kit) and the main focus of this manufacturer is on the production of traditional box mods / tanks / dripks. It is for this attitude to customers that many vapers would love to thank Vandy Vape. In order not to forget about the company and not looking for options devices in the format of POD-systems or sub-mods, was developed Vandy Vape RATH RDA drip, which is sure to find its fans.
It looks both traditional and a bit aggressive at the same time as the skirt and dome have numerous notches that are not only a decoration, but also make it much easier to adjust the blowdown or disassemble the RATH RDA. The drip is made in a fairly traditional diameter of 24 mm, so it will fit well for most box mods, mechmods and squonks.
In order to make the Vandy Vape RATH RDA as comfortable as possible to use, it uses 810’s beorning drip-tips, and it comes with two of them and they are compound (metal+plastic). If you want you can also install 510-type fries as the set includes an adapter for their use.
Base, blowing and usage features
We can’t say that the Vandy Vape RATH RDA uses a completely innovative base, as similar decks have already been presented in the market. The base is implemented in the form of two T-shaped pressure plates, thanks to which you can install one or two spirals. Due to the fact that the deck uses plates, not holes, you can safely install fatbuilds and do not worry about that they will not fit.
Installation of spirals is done vertically, with fixation on the side. It is important to choose the right length of the coil legs in order to get the most intense flavor. Laying the absorbent cotton will also not cause any problems, as there is enough space for it.
The vat has a depth of 6 mm, so it is easy to fit 1-1.2 ml of liquid in it. If you wish you can install a squonk pin and use the drip on the corresponding devices.
Blowing from the side realized by small holes for air intake, and there are 15 of them on each side, so that not only one air current falls on the coil, but many small ones, and this will certainly have a positive effect on the flavor transfer. The airflow is regulated by turning the top-cap.
Conclusions and Impressions
Considering the fact that lately the manufacturers practically do not release new drips, Vandy Vape RATH RDA will definitely please many fans of bulk, although the flavor transfer will also be good. The vape is easy to use and maintain, so even not the most experienced vaper will be able to deal with it.
