aga-t2 and lavatube v2?

[stan smith]

hey everyone im new to the forum and ive been vaping for about 6 months i started off with a totally wicked tornado tank setup and about 2 months ago i picked up a volcano e-cigs lavatube v2 im liking my carto setup i have but i want to get into rba's i did some searching and want something with a glass tank but dont want to spend an arm and a leg to get like a zen so i guess my big question is what would be the best rba with a glass tank that dosnt cost alot and what gauge kanthal wire should i use to get around 1.5 to 2.0 ohm coils thanks for any input and for helping out a newb at rba's

happy vaping

Aga-t2 might be ok. I have seen a lot of threads about them being difficult to set up but are great with practice. Others to consider might be an RSST or Cobra clone. RSST doesn't have a glass tank.

I typically use 32 or 34 gauge kanthal to get a 2 ohm coil.

If you want glass then get the AGA T2. I got the original AGA T but i replaced the plastic with glass so it is closer to the T2 now. If you want 1.5 to 2.0 ohms get some 32ga kanthal and maybe some 30ga. You will want to use SS mesh get either #400 or maybe #325. There are a ton of Youtub videos on it to show you how but not all use this trick I like. After you have oxidized the wick get a small piece of cigarette paper (w/o glue) and wrap it around one time where the coils will be wrapped. It does two things it cuts breakin time and avoids the hot spots and sparky spots with out having to mess with the wick to stop the sparks and hot spots. Makes it a lot easier. I make it stick with some VG on it. Test your work if possible with a meter or with something like a Vamo Mod. As long as your above 1.5 volts it will work on most mods and all mechs. Then you just fill it and tip it and vape away.

The RSST has a plastic tank!

Yes, I specified that the RSST doesn't have a glass tank. I didn't know off the top of my head if it was polypropylene or polycarbonate.

It is polypropylene and more resistant to "tank cracker" e liquids. But still not glass.
