Killing Time RDA Dripping Atomizer—produced by Secret Squad, the pressed electrode post structure is something everyone is familiar with. As atomizers continue to evolve, the pressed structure has gradually been optimized. This Killing Time RDA adds bottom airflow and a pressed rebound feature, effectively solving the awkwardness of the old pressed structure that required manual adjustment of the post position to insert the heating wire! Let's break down this atomizer step by step.

【Packaging】

The outer packaging uses cardboard material, with the name "KTLLING TIME" written in the center of the gun barrel grooves, and its striking red "COMPETITION" label indicates to players that it is a high airflow dripping device suitable for cloud chasing.

The back of the package lists the atomizer specifications and item checklist, along with a disassembly diagram to help you better understand the structure of this atomizer.

The packaging features a drawer-style structure, and upon opening, you can see the main body of the atomizer. This atomizer is released in two versions: a black version and a stainless steel version.

In addition to the main atomizer, the accessory pack includes: 4 spare locking screws, 4 spare springs, a complete set of spare O-rings, and a bottom fill screw.

【Atomizer】

The KTLLING TIME atomizer has a diameter of 25MM and a height of 36.6MM. The overall appearance resembles a gun barrel, paired with a barrel-shaped drip tip, making the vapor feel like "bullets".

The bottom is printed with the group logo and name, the atomizer name, and a serial number. The unique aspect of the numbering is that each atomizer has a distinct time as your "KTLLING TIME".
The two electrode posts at the bottom are removable; the positive post has a locking screw in addition to the positive contact screw, while the negative post has only one screw. Since this atomizer supports bottom filling, the bottom of the electrode posts has space for bottom filling, and both fixed screws at the bottom come with sealing O-rings, so there is no need to worry about oil leakage from the fixed screws.

The structure of this atomizer can be divided into four parts from top to bottom: the drip tip, upper atomization chamber, lower atomization chamber, and base.

The 810 drip tip features eight grooves inside, and the open inverted cone structure at the top, combined with these grooves, allows for complete condensation return. The use of PEI material completely avoids the issue of a hot tip. The groove design affects the vapor intake experience to some extent, and you can clearly feel the vapor swirling into your mouth.

The chamber part is divided into an upper chamber and a lower chamber, and the connection between the two uses a reverse thread design that allows for the opening/closing of hidden airflow on both sides. As seen in the image, the opening and adjustment range of the dual side airflow holes are extremely large, allowing for different settings during regular use, while the exaggerated airflow when fully opened is impressive.

In the middle, you can see two inverted trapezoidal airflow ports, which can open and close the side airflow holes through the threading of the upper and lower chambers. When fully closed, the airflow holes are hidden, adding another layer of playability to this atomizer.

The design of the Killing Time at the base is not the traditional L-shaped airflow channel; it has a certain angled position that can accurately hit the bottom of the heating wire, while the wide and deep oil trough provides a good oil storage capacity. The outer side of the bottom airflow port has a curved slope that is lower than the outer plane, allowing the airflow to disperse slightly, better wrapping around the heating wire coil and enhancing flavor clarity.

Under the pressed structure, there are 4 springs hidden inside, with a gold-plated spring achieving the effect of automatic rebound of the pressed post. Additionally, there is no need to worry about damaging the spring when tightening. The electrode pressed post is 1.8mm thick, and as long as you do not overly tighten the heating wire, there will be no bending of the pressed post. The locking space is 3mm wide, which can accommodate most of the current complex fancy heating wires.

In terms of heating wire selection, the Killing Time RDA can adapt to very exaggerated data for fancy coils, thanks to its ample internal space and a large controllable range that can support any form of wire.

In fact, once its structure was released, some people questioned whether the angled airflow and high latitude edges would make it difficult to install the wire, or whether it would cause the airflow holes in the heating wire to be too close. However, a closer look at the height difference between the electrode post and the edge makes it clear that there is no need to worry about raising or lowering the height of the heating wire; the correct usage method is simply to keep the two cores parallel to the electrode. #p#分页标题#e#

In terms of flavor performance, as a large space level dripping device with a nearly 25mm base diameter, if you have experience using various types of atomizers, you will only need to try it once to sense its charm. Meanwhile, as a "competition-level" product, the massive airflow when fully opened can satisfy your desire for cloud chasing. It is also a representative that can completely break the notion that good flavor only comes from narrow spaces, because even with the side airflow closed, it still provides a three-dimensional feel similar to a 22mm RDA when paired with a 0.6mm A1 core. It is worth noting that its internal space is already very large, and the rich flavor experience is entirely due to its tightly set bottom airflow and the controlled distance between the core and airflow channel.

【Conclusion】

Killing Time continues the high quality of Secret Squad; from a playful perspective, it supports a wide range of data, capable of withstanding various core experiments; in terms of user experience, the combination of bottom and side airflow ensures that it has a rich flavor while also giving you the ability to compete in cloud chasing.

If I had to point out one issue, it would be that there may be condensation accumulation at the side airflow ports, which requires regular cleaning.

By now, you should have a good understanding of this atomizer. Killing Time can be said to be quite excellent, highly playable, and full of innovation and highlights! This atomizer is definitely a must-have!
