    eBay Preventing Vaping Sales

    Ah! Excellent point, bekka! In fact, I did have a problem with the listing before! It had been put up as an auction, and at the end, the winning bidder never sent payment. I have in place the Unpaid Assistant tool, and after two days, eBay sent a message to the winner that they had won, and were...

    eBay Preventing Vaping Sales

    OK, obviously I need to clarify my original post somewhat. First of all, it was my understanding that, provided the eBay listing did not contain nicotine or tobacco, it was permissible. Having seen thousands of auctions for said items on eBay, it appeared perfectly legit to sell. Second, the...

    eBay Preventing Vaping Sales

    I very recently had up for auction on eBay a group of my old Kanger products for sale. Imagine my surprise, as I just received a notice from eBay stating they had just cancelled my auction, explaining that my items "violated eBay's policy towards e-cigarettes". I had no idea eBay was so opposed...

    Newbie to coil making - questions about gauge and wraps

    Yeah, I continue to learn a lot as I go along. :vapor: I am now using 28g Kanthal, with eight wraps around my trusty electrical outlet screw, which appears to be @ 3mm. This yields @ 1.5 ohms, and I am using my 20-watt iStick at 12 watts with this build. Still loving my Subtank Mini, and still...

    Nautilus Mini way better than Aerotank Mini

    My wife has the Nautilus Mini with the newer BVC coils, and she absolutely loves it. We initially tried it with the older BDC coils, and they were terrible. Once we changed to the BVC coils, it was a complete 180 in performance.

    Kanger Subtank Mini - Copper Parts?

    Yeah, I am more and more convinced the discoloration is the result of some slight defect, probably from over-heating. I finally heard back from a tech in China who showed my pictures to the assembly team. They all assured me that the Subtank Mini is entirely SS, and that the color was from some...

    RTA Recommedations

    It's been about a month or so since I got my Subtank Mini, and finally made the transition into making my own coils. I FREAKIN' LOVE IT!!!! But I'd also like to branch out more, and try other rebuildable tanks. I have been digging on the web, but it's hard to know what's good, and what's junk...

    Vaping ignorance (My Experience)

    I agree with you, Cinetrope. One of the most persistent questions I get from the un-initiated seems to center around whether or not my Subtank Mini is filled with something other than e-liquid. My wife and I were at one of our local watering holes last night where they are vape-friendly, and a...

    Kanger Subtank Mini - Copper Parts?

    Soooo....after I received two more obviously automated responses to my inquiries, I got frustrated, and answered back with the following: IF THERE IS AN ACTUAL PERSON WHO WILL READ AND RESPOND TO MY EMAIL, INSTEAD OF GIVING ME THESE AUTOMATED RESPONSES, I WOULD REALLY APPRECIATE IT. Hello, and...

    Kanger Subtank Mini - Copper Parts?

    OK....this is confusing. :facepalm: Here is my original email to Kangertech USA: I have had my Subtank Mini for almost three weeks, and I absolutely love it. But one thing has always bothered me about one side of the mounting screw section. It has a faint appearance of copper. I was informed...

    Kanger Subtank Mini - Copper Parts?

    LOL! Nah, Bro. It was just my bad camera phone at work. Before I took the pictures, I totally washed all the parts. What you are seeing is glare, and poor quality from my phone.

    Kanger Subtank Mini - Copper Parts?

    I have been using, and thoroughly enjoying, my Kanger Subtank Mini for a little over three weeks now. But something has always bothered me about the rebuildable deck, and I finally decided to ask about it. One of the deck posts where one of the wire holding screws sits has one side that shines...

    KangerTech SUBTANK Mini

    @ Mortis, sorry to hear that your are having such a bad experience with the Subtank. :( I was also a mouth-to-lung hitter, and soon learned that the Subtank Mini really shines with lung-hitting, so it took a bit for me to learn how to do it. I agree that it doesn't work too well with...

    KangerTech SUBTANK Mini

    Yeah, not quite ready for subbing just yet. Makes my head spin! LOL! I seem to prefer the @ 1.5 ohm range for now. Might change later on, but loving the results so far. This Subtank Mini RAWKS!!!!

    KangerTech SUBTANK Mini

    I've had my Subtank Mini for almost a month, and I still absolutely LOVE it! I've re-built the coil more than a few times now using both 30g and 28g, and I am learning a lot along the way. Currently, I have about 8 turns of 28g Kanthal for 1.7 ohms, hitting it with 15w/5v on my trusty Eleaf...
