A decent coil for the Cubis Pro?

[calan]

I really, really like the Cubis Pro tank. And I really, really hate the coils that come with it. All of them. They just suck.

The LCV coil sort of works, when it works. With the liquid orifice all the way open (50/50, 60/40, 80/20, etc...and therefore making it completely useless as far as I can tell), and the airflow turned way down, it works fairly well as an MTL tank. But when I removed the coil to try a different one, and then re-installed it, it started spitting and gurgling like crazy. I replaced the o-ring at the top of it which definitely helped, but it still wasn't like it was when I first put it in.

Has anyone come up with a better coil, or know of one that can be made to work? I prefer an MTL type coil in the 15 to 25w range for this tank, but at this point I'd settle for anything that gives a nice smooth draw.

I've read all the tips about "turn it upside down", "blow here...", "put tinfoil on your head and...", etc.... and that's all BS. I want a coil that just works, like in every other similar tank out there.

Any suggestions so I can enjoy this tank, instead of throwing it as hard as possible against a wall?

I've used the .6 mtl coils and loved them.

That's my go-to set up.

get the 1.5 ohm coil that is not lcv.

Unfortunately, I've never had a coil NOT leak or spit back with the Cubis or Cubis Pro tanks. I hope you're able to find a solution as I gave up on mine

I put the extra drip tip that is in the box on it and that fixed the problem !

You have me inspired to pull it out of the drawer and try that. I'm pretty sure I only used it with the included drip tip. I'm happy that there's hope!

when the Cubis is not gurgling it is good... I perfected an anti gurgling fill routine ( most of which I have now forgotten but it involved paper towel down the chimney and the flick and a lot of bad thoughts) but then after getting a batch of bad coils I just gave up!! then they released the .6 coils.. they were better... on some days !!

I read somewhere that it is actually called an antispit tip !
