My needs are simple in concept but I am having trouble finding the right tank.

Right now my main setup is just a Cool Fire IV Plus which goes to 70W and a Kanger Sub tank Mini with a 0.5 Clapton coil. I vape for flavor and don't care if the clouds are large or small. I love the flavor from this at 34w-36w but its getting a little more expensive than many others on the market today.
(I know there are much better mods but the size, form, battery life and durability make this the perfect one for me while at work)
I seem to like sweeter flavors, and being a relatively heavy vaper I kill the coils in 3-4 days because the cotton gets gummed up. At $5 each coil that adds up quick. I used to build but I would rather the ease of changing the coil and moving on (less often of course). I also am not a fan of the constant spitting. I want to taste the vape not drink the liquid. I also have the unit in my pocket while at work so like everyone else I am not a fan of leaking.
I have looked online at the Aspire Triton 2 and the vaporesso Target but I dont know if they are right for my needs.

This leads me to my question, what tank would you suggest for me and why?

I vape a DIY custard that is pretty sweet. The only tank I have used where it tastes good and I get good coil life is the TFV8. The coil that is installed when you purchase it has been awesome. 2 weeks and counting. I try to keep refilling it when it gets about half full. I have run about 20 tanks through it so far. Still tastes great. It comes with an rba base and dual claptons pre-installed.

The cons of course are that it is huge. It smashes on batteries. Mows though juice. I can go to work and not refill till I get home. It didn't run nearly as well on my old Sigelei 100watt. My fuchai 200 at 90 watts powers it very well. You can get a satisfying vape at 60watts with the air closed off but I prefer 90 wide open. The other con is that you would need a higher wattage device.

It is a great tank for flavor and clouds. So for about $100 you can get mod, tank, and a set of married batteries. It is the only tank I have vaped that didn't gunk in short order. My son seems to get good life from the Cleito tank on the same juice. Significantly cheaper option where you could probably use your current mod as they have a .4ohm coil.

What's your PG/VG ratio and how does your subtank perform currently?

I have 4 liquids I use on a regular basis. One is 20pg/80vg (used the least), 2 @ 30pg/70vg and one is 35pg/65vg. Of course I try others but these are my main choices. So far the subtank is great. Flaver is great. The heat and throat hit are within reason but I just get tired of killing the coils. I had better life with rebuildables but I just dont have the time or desire to rebuild any more.

    Well I know you might not want it but I have the same battery as you, but I got the kit with the iSub Apex. Now the Apex is about a 20 dollar tank by itself but I can get the .5 ohm clapton coils for about 10$ for 5. I get amazing flavor and am only vaping juices from Verde Valley Vapes. Using 80/20 vg/pg and one flavor shot. I get really good flavor and the coils are lasting me at least 2 weeks (unless I screw something up ). But you can probably get better advice for a tank. I just know that mine is right for me, Super Klutzo as I drop my stuff all the time and the tank hasn't screwed up, not once. :oops::D

    I would recommend the Kayfun v5

    I have always loved the Kayfuns and Russians. They were my first RTAs. I am looking for more of a load and go now. I dont have the time or desire to do the rebuilds.
    I was considering tanks with the ceramic coils because of their long life but Im still looking for more opinions.

    Have you tried a Kabuki Tank? Just like Aspire Nautilus but slightly better made. Only come with a P3 Connection anymore though. You can still get a Clone in 510 though. Great Flavor and Air Flow Set it and forget it. And now with the new Aspire heads with larger juice holes you're set

    I just got a Pangu Tank recently and loving it with the .5Ω coils. About $10 for a 5 pack of coils and it is the first Sub Ohm Tank I have found to deliver the smooth cool vape I prefer.

    Good Luck and Vape On Safely!


    PS: If you want the suppliers name I will be glad to provide it just not sure if I can post it here.
