THE STORY OF THE LAYERCAKE
As District F5VE continues to evolve as a company, so do our products. Our obsession remains to continuously improve and simplify. Every product refinement adds more efficiency and purpose to our designs.
We have created a product that is the direct evolution of the Cosmonaut, our original RDA design. Our designers looked at the Cosmonaut and asked if we could simplify it even more, while getting more flavor. So we stripped the design down to its bare bones and rebuilt it with only the elements truly required.
Through this process one of the things we learned is that if we used only one screw, we’d have more space. This redesign led us to the Vise-Style deck design, which leaves even more room and makes it easier to build in the RDA. The possibilities to build large coils just became greater.
Another aspect of this Vise design was that it needed to clamp down very hard. During our testing, everything we tried either broke or burned. There was no material available on the market that had the tensile strength and makeup to withstand the pressure and heat required of this new design.
At District F5VE we often look to other industries for inspiration and ways to bring new technologies to the vape industry. It was through this research that we discovered Ceramisteel. It has the tensile strength to handle the Vise deck and can withstand heats over 1000°C.
Ceramisteel is our work of art. It would not exist if we didn’t challenge what was possible for this industry.
By using materials from other industries, we’ve redefined simplicity to bring you the next evolution of the RDA. With all the elements where they belong, our new design is complete. We call it the Layercake. An upgrade which gives you more space for massive builds, an unmeltable insulator, and keeps the incredible vapor and flavor performance of the original Cosmonaut.
This is the one atomizer that can achieve what no others can.
OUR CREATIVE PROCESS
Ideas are extremely fragile and we pour our souls and dreams into each new concept. Which is why we only release one product per year. Our design studio operates like a workshop. We draw, test, and make 3D prototypes for each idea. For every product that gets to market, we’ve thought through hundreds of iterations of that idea.
Our habit of creative exploration is easy because we are so consumed by what we haven’t done yet. No idea is too crazy, and often the craziest ideas lead us to the right idea.
Welcome to the 5th.

Very disaponinted, gets extremely hot no matter the coils or set up, moist all over, the ring spins.. Burning lips, hands wet.. Total Fail!!!

I gotta say, the Layer Cake is a real mixed bag for me. I absolutely love the deck. Easy to build and I’m a fan of the easy clamp system. The little O-ring on the bottom is a nice touch for squonking too.
The top-cap is a complete failure though. Its terrible. It gets insanely hot sometimes and I’m not entirely sure why. The virtually non-existant drip tip, which is also a frustrating two-part system, doesn’t help. The beauty ring fits terribly and flops around uselessly. There’s too many moving parts and o-rings holding it together so its always coming loose and leaking juice out of all the cracks and crevices, especially when squonking.
I was a really early pre-order and I was quite excited to get my hands on the follow up to the cosmonaut. It was a real let down honestly. That said, I think its a very fixable problem. A new top-cap could really make this thing shine. Lose the layers. Less is more when it comes to top caps. The deck is sooo good but the current cap is soooo bad…

i used Alien coils .16 ohm
And the atomaizer is very very hot and this is
Push to start to buy it .. how i can solve this problem in the build

I use a mech mod. How does it drip through the top? I hate squanking. Is the flavor and clouds better then the Cosmonaut. I ordered one. Right now I only use the Cosmonaut. I just want to know if u can drip through the top easily.
