I'm looking at getting a mini subtank for the 20 watt mvp. I know I can only use the 1.2 coils with my battery. I am trying to plan for the future, lol.

Is it true that nic levels over .6 will be pretty harsh? I have alot of 1.2% and don't want to waste it.

Is it easier to recoil/wick the organic cotton coils than it is the rba? If so, I'll buy 2 or 3 packs for future recoiling.

TIA!

I'm using 12% nicotine in my subtank mini, which I vape mouth to lung. It doesn't seem overly strong to me, but everything is subjective I guess. The main thing I've disliked about the Kanger so far is it has had a tendency to spit hot e-juice on your tongue. I have only used the 1.2 ohm coil, so I don't know if it is an issue with the 0.5 ohm coil.

Really, I have several Subtank mini's and have used both coil values, never had juice hit my mouth...what wattage are you vaping the 1.2 at?

The above posts just simply demonstrate the subjectivity of it all.
As for me, I use the sub tank and sub tank mini for mouth to lung AND full lung hits on 12mg of nic. No issues for me whatsoever.

Each to their own, I say.
Buy a couple smaller bottles of juice of differing levels and see how it works for you.

so true. I have a bunch of Nautilus Minis and use those with 12mg juices. No problem. I bought 2 Subtank Minis and bought 6mg juices for those. Deep lung hits no problem but with mouth to lung on 6mg I tend to cough sometimes. I also get more flavor when I do mouth to lung.

I'm using an aerotank (w/ MVP20) now. I'm pretty happy with it over the Evod starter kit I was using. The Evod worked though, I quit smoking except for a few here and ther when I'm out and about (1 pack a day to about 1 pack a month now!) I wanted the Mini so I can rebuild with some ease.

I can't lung hit at all. I'm so used to mouth to lung after smoking for so long, it just doesn't feel right.

I might hold off until I'm read to step my nic level down again. Thanks for all the info guys! You guys rock.

Subjectivity...

I have been mouth to lung for the most part due to the gear I've used and comfort level coming from analogs...
Since the Subtank Mini I have fully adopted straight lung hits and now vape with a combination of both, in the same pull usually :)
still loving this Subtank mini on both the OCC and RBA heads.. Working very well with 10mg/ml on my mech mod on a 18650 between 35w and 25w depending on the charge of my batteries..

I would say that it is easier to rbuild the RBA part then the OCC Head. Building the RBA is very simple. Riptrippers on youtube has a video on how to rebuild the occ head. IMO I would just rbuild the RBA then attempt to rebuild the OCC Head.

I think one of the main reasons people are rebuilding the OCC head. Is because it restricts less air on the original Subtank. The RBA head made for a tighter draw. I believe this problem was fixed with the mini.
