IGO W6 Introduction

The IGO W6 is the monster in a series of rebuildable atomizers that Youde has introduced this year. Youde is a Chinese manufacturer of vaping supplies that has consistently put out really nice gear at really nice prices. You even get adjustable air flow on this beast and its still well under $50!

I recently did a big write up of the IGO W, which is the most basic 3 post model RDA that’s designed for dual coil setups. Its an incredible RDA for the price and serves as both a great starter RDA as well as an excellent utility RDA for experienced users.

The new IGO W6 is the latest in the series of Youde RDA’s and is set up for quad coils. The advantage to quad coil setups is that you can get really low sub-ohm setups with plenty of wraps in your coil. This means excellent vapor production and warm to hot temperatures. You could easily build octo-coils as well, though I haven’t tried this yet. Four coils is plenty!

The bottom line here is you get a great looking, 5 post rebuildable that’s extremely easy to build. Its elegant looking and the price is WAY below any short-run, top of the line RDA or RBA. If you’ve owned Youde stuff before you know what you’re getting into. A great RDA that won’t break the bank.

IGO W6 with Quad Coils

The Youde IGO W6 comes in 4 parts: the deck, collar, airflow adjustment ring and top cap. The deck features 5 posts – 4 negative posts and one positive. The positive post is rather unique in that it features textured thumb collars that make wraping the positive side of each coil a breeze. The thumb collars also keep the wire leads separated to ensure good contact. I wrap each of the positive leads 1 time around the post and it worked great.

The air flow adjustment ring is exceptional for an RDA in this price range and ads an enormous bang for the buck on the IGO W6. The ring features 2 sets of air flow holes. There are doubled round holes and slots. The setup is simple. If you’re only using this in a dual coil configuration, use the round hole pairs. My first build was a dual coil and it worked great.

But where this unit really shines is when you set it up in a quad coil configuration. The IGO W6 is mind blowing in a quad setup. You’ll simple use the slotted air flow holes and adjust to the right flow for what you like.

Building Coils on the IGO W6

Post layout on the IGO W6

So this was the most impressive part about the IGO W6. If you’ve ever built quad coils on an RDA before it can be frustrating. Its a lot of coils and they need to be spaced correctly. Having said that – the IGO W6 is extremely easy to build. In fact I was really impressed – I had my first quad coil configuration set up (vertical coils) within about 10 minutes. I couldn’t believe how easy this was to build on.

The negative leads go through the holes on the negative posts – tighten the screw down and you’re set. The positive leads wrap evenly spaced 1 time around the center post. Just space them with the textured thumb collars and you’re done. What makes this particularly easy to do is that the IGO W6 uses two different heights on the negative posts. This makes the spacing really easy when you wrap the positive sides.

Should I get the IGO W6?

In short – yes! I’d personally recommend this unit in a second for anyone interested in a good, affordable quad coil RDA. It looks sharp, its easy to build, its got air flow control and its a fraction of what other boutique 5 post RDA’s go for.

These are enormously popular, so if you want one – get it while they are in stock. They tend to not last.
