KangerTech SUBTANK Mini

[aldenf]

Never found one I really liked because of how much ni200 it took to get the res up to workable levels with thicker more durable gauges. The smaller ga. wire is so flimsy that it's hard to wick heavy without distorting the coil. I'm pretty happy now with my Ti builds but plan on trying some twisted 30ga ni200 on my next build...I've heard that they are reasonably strong.

As I always wrap spaced coils for TC and I've found that work-hardening 32 or 30 gauge Ni200 before twisting provides a pretty stiff coil. Some are twisting Ni200 with KA1 to provide a stiffer coil. This works great but you do have to heat up the mass of the KA1 in the process, which requires more joules (less battery life).

Is anyone else here wrapping twisted Ni200 or Ti (with or without KA1)? How does it work on the VT?

I use twisted 32awg NI200 and it works well. Not near as stiff as Kanthal but a lot nicer to rewick vs straight 28awg or 30awg NI200.

I'll try work hardening the wire before twisting it up. Like you, all my coils are spaced these days. I have 32g ni200 on hand....what was your 32 twisted build and res?

Quick question for using the rda setup with the new subox mini kit. Was using the occ prebuilt coil and tried the rda with the factory coil and wicking with the included cotton. I am getting popping sounds. Is it not enough cotton or is it too much? Love the flavor running Space Jam juice at 3mg just don't like all the popping.

Try turning up the wattage. If the popping doesn't stop before going burny try using more cotton. If it still pops loudly try building your own coil on the rba.

Note: Higher pg juices pop more than higher vg juices.

Sorry to hijack the thread but this should be short and quick but figured I would ask here since this thread is popular. Does the subtank mini come with a warrantee? And did anyone get a warrantee card in there box? I swear I saw one when I first opened the package but I don't have one.

When Fastech lists something as "authentic" I believe it is. Sometimes they will have a listing for say "protank" and then another for "authentic Kanger Protank" and it is just what it says

Ni200, twisted 32g, 3mm⌀, 8 wraps, approximately .15Ω.

hey all. This thread is sooo big, I don't have the time to read through it. But I need to replace the rda. Everytime I go to fill my tank, and unscrew the bottom the top cap of the rda stays inside on the tank (no matter how tight I screw it on) Question is the new style rba plus combatable with the old? I can't find it in stock anywhere. Or should I just get the original and just mod the old style again, for better juice flow.

Hi Sue, welcome. Are you putting a little juice on the oring inside the cap to act as a lubricant? That helps a lot but most peeps don't have issues with the caps unscrewing. Maybe there is something wrong with yours.

Personally I like the older style rba, the ones with juice channels and don't have any issues with running it at 30w all day with 75vg juice. Others like the newer style with the juice holes in the rba sleeve. As far as compatibility I believe that all the parts are interchangeable. For more opinions on new vs. old rbas there is a more active thread here:

Thanks for the reply cigatron, I found the new style plus on fasttech it was only about 3 bucks, and will ship tomorrow. I'm leary on the the two large juice holes in the side. Not sure if it's going to be a pia. to get the wicking correct.

I do like the original style too. but sometimes the bottom piece is a pia to screw off too. I did manage to finally figure out that running it under cold water first will shrink the metal and light force to unscrew. lol I did take a dremal and make the juice channels larger. I tend to chain vape and was getting to many dry hits.

On my next fill up I will try putting a bit of juice on the oring. I never had this problem when I first got the tank. I've used the RBA since day one.

Hi Mac
