The Geekvape Avocado was well received and had great flavour but it was a pain to fill and didn’t have the greatest juice capacity. Well along comes the Avocado 24 and not only has it solved these issues, it’s just plain better. Let’s check out what could be the best RDTA yet…
It’s pretty simple looking from the outside, clean lines, not too much branding, and looks sort of chunky. Really you wouldn’t think something like this to produce such great flavour. There isn’t a condensed vapor chamber or a domed roof, nothing that usually equates to good flavour production other than the fact your mouth is right on top of the coils. This must be enough cause it sure puts out.
Flavour is the closest you will find to an RDA, really so good that it out performs some of ours! It’s intense and accurate enough to bring out the subtleties in almost any juice.
Airflow is dialled in. The AFC has been very well planned and executed. There is every setting you could ever need, from fully open and pretty wide, to a perfect restricted draw. Really our only gripe is that the AFC ring doesn’t detach from the top cap, so it makes cleaning a little harder than it needs to be (but it does function very well). What’s great about the Avocado 24 is that it’s really a 22 that utilizes the extra space to add an easy to use juice fill door and an increased juice capacity. Because of this it doesn’t behave like most 24/25s, it doesn’t need crazy builds with tons of watts to perform. So you can still have a nice comfortable, less aggressive vape.
It’s so versatile, you can go dual or single coil builds and get a great vape. Pictured above is a great dual build, 7 wrap, 25awg, spaced 2.5mm coming in at 0.35-4 Ohms run at 50-60W. It’s a nice warm vape with tons of vapor. But you can also throw in a single 2.5mm 28/32awg 6 wrap clapton at 0.55-7 Ohms and run it at 30-35W and get a vape almost as good that is on the cooler side and better on your battery life. No matter what we build we like a restricted airflow, either 1/3 open on both sides for duals or the single hole on each side with one lined up with the single coil ceramic insert airflow hole. And of course like all Genesis style RDTAs it needs that 45° tilt towards your wicks to keep the juice flowing to the coils.
Wicking and building is super easy, the velocity deck makes setting your coils a joke, and wicking is a matter of shoving your wick leeds down the juice flow holes (keep them long enough to just enter the tank section). Over wicking is pretty common with this style of tank, you don’t need tons of wick (don’t touch the bottom with your wicks), remember when it’s tilted, it naturally feeds juice to your wicks. The shorter they are the better they will perform, especially when using claptons.
The 5ml juice capacity is great, if you’re running dual coils it lasts a decent amount of time, but with a single build it lasts pretty long (2-3 hrs). Either way it still drinks juice, but the good news is it’s easy as hell to fill. The little swing open juice fill ports work with almost any bottle/dropper type but it’s less messy if you use a needle tip or unicorn bottle. For those of you like us (OCD), this is a pretty tidy atty, no leaking and not a lot of fuss to keep it running cleanly.
Sure we aren’t totally sold on this 24/25mm crazy, and we aren’t crazy about how they fit on some mods (or doesn’t at all), but this is the first bigger atty that delivers and makes sense of this larger size. It’s not the prettiest, but it isn’t ugliest either. But with the quality of flavour and overall performance the Geekvape Avocado 24 is a must buy for anyone looking for a simple to use, set & forget tank that will is worry free for when you aren’t in the mood for a dripper. Well done Geekvape.
