Reviewer comments on business characteristics
Today, we must be able to find this dripper at a lower price, but in any case the price is not too high for this product.
It comes with a proprietary drip-tip, which allows you to use it immediately, we also have an adapter to use it with a drip tip 510, so you have two different looks on this atomizer.
The plate is dug 5mm so as to obtain a reserve of liquid superior to the traditional drippers, its capacity is however modest since it is not quite 1 ml.
This Royal Hunter is an aesthetic success. Small size, it fits well on all mods proposed, its pace is sophisticated.
It is available in three colors: black, white or steel. The one we are going to see is the "black-brass" model

Reviewer's comments on physical characteristics and perceived quality
The Royal Hunter is really a beautiful atomizer RDA, an aristocratic look in its version "black".
On the drip tip and on the body of the atomizer the brass keys are superb and do not oxidize very quickly, moreover, its cleaning is simple and the shine comes back immediately. For the engravings under the tray, they are beautiful, clear and I have not found a single flaw.
For the tray, it is wide enough to work properly and is dug to allow a very small reserve of liquid, however even if the Phillips screws are small, the holes to place your resistive wire, are really wide to use a diameter large wire greater than 0.6mm or even 0.8mm.
The Drip-tip is steel with a nice shape and a grid at its base, but we'll see that further.
The only part that is in PMMA is the adapter for the drip-tip 510 nevertheless the quality is correct.
The vents are positioned on each side of the tank to properly supply air to the two (or four) resistors of the assembly. You also have the possibility to open only one side of the tank for a simple coil assembly.
All in all it's a good little solid-looking Dripper, with a practical design and a matte black coating, which does not mark fingerprints.

Reviewer's comments on functional features
- The 510 connection is adjustable through a screw, but be careful not to unscrew it too much which fixes the positive studs on the base.
- The tray is hollowed out to leave a small place for a mini reserve of liquid. The studs are well spaced, but the screws are really small, on the other hand there is enough room to insert in each stud, two wires of at least 0.3mm in diameter in order to easily carry out an assembly with 4 resistors.
- The tank with its top cap measures only 24mm and 32mm with the drip tip, a small size which adapts to all mods and which gives appreciable aesthetic comfort and ease of transport.
- The drip tip, in addition to its appearance, is equipped with a grid which acts effectively against liquid projections during suction. It is for me a false good idea because even if this objective is reached, at the output, the diameter of the drip tip is 13mm, and its base which should be as wide for a very aerial suction, is limited by the grid to offer adequate draft. The result is concentrated aromas which lose their flavor, saturated by excessive heat and a lack of air, but this only occurs at very low resistances and at high power. It's a bit of a shame because without this grid I think the air sucked in could dissipate more quickly and this dripper would then offer more mounting possibilities. However, with correct values, it is a little gem that wonderfully restores all the flavors by bringing out the sugars, provided that you are reasonable in terms of assembly and power.
- On each side of this tank, there is a series of 4 vents of different size which can be adjusted precisely, or fully open or closed through the intermediaries. However I find this airflow still a bit restricted on a series of 2 or 4 subohm resistors for a value less than 0.5 ohm. The heat is felt a little and the air flow is limited to be able to suck a very large amount of steam.
- Inside the tank you have a small brass band which serves as a guide to position your top cap on the tank so that the airflows are fully open.

Reviewer's comments on the Drip-Tip
A fairly impressive proprietary XXL drip tip because the outlet diameter is 13mm, unfortunately or fortunately, on the bottom of this drip tip, there is a grid that avoids swallowing liquid projections during inhalation. direct. This is a great idea since the tank is short and the opening wide, so it actually limits the risks. On the other hand, this grid also limits the diameter of the drip tip for those who go below 0.5 ohm and who are looking for very large clouds with a maximum airflow opening. In addition, I have the impression that the flavors are also penalized. But let's be clear, this drawback is only perceptible under 0.5 ohm with a mounting of at least two resistors in parallel.
Above this value (0.5 ohm) is a drip tip malin stainless steel coated with black and decorated with touches of yellow brass, which in addition to being superb is comfortable in the mouth.

5. A notice in English, decorated with many explanatory photos
6. A QR code with a serial number to authenticate the object on the record

Reviewer's comments on the use of the product
Its small size allows to mount the atomizer on any type of mod. On a mechanical 18350 mod, it will be very easy to put in a pocket, but remember to close the airflows to avoid residual liquid stains.
It offers the possibility to mount from 1 to 4 resistors, simple or complex assembly is very easy, apart from the screw heads which, I find, are small, the holes to place your resistance tabs are of a large diameter . The place on the board allows to work properly. This Royal hunter is quite easy, plus I made a first assembly with a wire NI200 diameter 0.25mm and tightening, the wire did not break, good news.
The tank is a plus for a dripper, which allows us to have a small reserve, however there is a risk of leaks as soon as the set-up is down, it is inevitable.
The airflows on either side of the tank can be adjusted to open only one side or both. They can also be adjusted precisely. They are effective and dissipate the heat produced, however there are limits, because in subohm with a large diameter wire and a very high power, which allows power vaping, I recommend this atomizer.
Although it is made for small resistance values, it has these limits, first by the size of the airflows, then by the height of the tank and finally the grid of the drip tip. Yes you will make big clouds but limit your values (wire diameter - resistance value - power), up to 0.5 ohm, nothing really noticeable.

The mood ticket of the reviewer
I tested various montages with this dripper from NiChrome200 to Kanthal, with various powers, editing singles and doubles (I did not do the quad, this was enough), until the change of diameter of my kanthal. It is an excellent dripper that allows you to make a consistent vapor with a beautiful restitution of flavors. Nevertheless the "game" at its limits, it is not an atomizer made for very big powers. Beyond 50 watts and according to your editing, it will be difficult to appreciate it, because you will feel on your lips the heat of the coil, moreover the airflows limit the dissipation of heat as well as the grid.
But it still offers great opportunities and it has a look that I really like!
If I do this review it is partly thanks to Olivier who asked me for a comparison between indulgence mutation X V4 and this one. To answer Olivier, I would say that everyone has a vaper way of their own, with games, discoveries or different research. But there are also aesthetic tastes. I think I have given all the elements necessary to make the choice between these two Drippers (aesthetics, quality and performance), now everyone has to prioritize his priorities according to his vape.
I thank Stephane for lending me his Royal Hunter to present this review. A big THANK you and in charge of revenge!
