No other recommendations please. My local B&M is blowing out these two kits specifically.

I am currently using a Kanger subox and a Snow Wolf 200. I love my subox but like the TC and additional watts of the Nebox. I don't like the leaking stories of the Nebox but a few friends that have them love them and have only had them leak while they were stood up vertically. I also like the Subtank Mini. Nice to have an extra tank as I use the Kanger RBA a lot.

I am adding a 2nd smaller mod as I hate travelling or going out with the Snow Wolf.

Both are the same price.

Which one would you buy and why?

Subjective question of course, but I'd opt for the Subox Mini. Yeah, 10W less power and no TC, but you can throw any tank on it. Nebox has no AFC, the leaking issues and you're using whatever juice is in it unless you drain and change it out. The Nebox would be great for a "take a vape out for the day without carrying my full vape kit" using the 1.2 or 1.5 coils in it.

Exactly! That is my dilemma.

I use my Subox all the time and really like the Subtank.

Do I need another one or go with something different, I guess is what I am trying to figure out. I guess I could go with a Subox in a colour other than what I have (black). ;)

I'd go with the sub-box. Way to many customers I've seen coming into my B&M with leaky tanks, cracked tanks, stripped threads, and a whole host of other problems. Subtank/Kbox you can generally replace a gasket, tank, or coil head, the Kbox generally just a trouble shooting from the pin down into the battery sled if it isn't seriously abused. Most of the Neboxes I've seen are showing "Way" to much wear and tear from such a recently released device, I imagine your B&M is tired of the issues as well and wanting to clear them off the shelves for something else.

You're talking to a guy that bought one TC60W and decided that he needed another one the next week. ;) I'm leaning to the Subox. I like the Subtank enough that I'd be recommending the Subox kit to beginners if they have enough aptitude to use it.

Ha!

I think I agree though.

@IMFire3605 and you very likely pushed me to the Subox.

My current Subox has been rock solid and I have used it nonstop for over a month. I was going to wait for the Platinum or Plus, but I can get the full Subox Mini kit for about $40US. The RBA, the included coils and Sub Tank Mini are worth $40 to me alone.

Good mod to have 2 of in any case!
