I've been looking at a lot of tanks lately that have the rba coil as an option. I currently have a subtank mini on my kbox and have been using the rba section since I purchased it. Other than the initial occ it came with. I'm really wanting to use it for a TC mod (snow wolf which is in the mail) and have been leaning towards the kayfun v4, kanger subtank plus, smok TFV4. I'm a flavor chaser also and want to use titanium wire. The main reason I'm asking this is not only am I relatively new to vaping. I haven't had the opportunity to mess with a TC mod before. As well as the only things I've ever built on are my rba for my subtank mini and a velocity rda. Which Ive heard are some of the easiest things to build on. So while looking at a lot of these rebuildables. I feel spoiled by what I've been rebuilding with compared to others. Thanks in advance for any suggestion/recommendations.

There are a few tanks that will be using similar post as the velocity coming soon.

The one that's available right now is the Aromamizer RDTA which has an option for the velocity-styled deck which I've been using with sx mini. My personal experience on this tank has been awesome and like you, I look for simplicity in building and can give an awesome flavor.

Just a precaution that the tank shines at higher wattage/joules with dual coils (single coil is possible but less flavor). With nickel, building dual coil need to be as accurate as possible due to sensitivity of the resistance.

For simple single coil build, both the tfv4 and subtank will do the job. For flavor or performance, there's quite a number of good comments on the tfv4.

The kayfun is a classic flavor tank that is still used by many. Its suited more for mouth to lung but does have some issues (that can be rectified with some modifications or add ons) with temp control.

The crown and tfv4 are somewhat the most popular sub ohm tanks currently. They are designed for both normal and TC modes and do provide good flavor and are decently easy to build.

However, it's difficult to justify what's best as this is based on individual preference. Additionally, more and more tanks are popping up everyday which makes it difficult to decide.

Based on my own experience and preference, I'm satisfied with the Aromamizer RDTA which is currently the tank that's giving me the best flavor (for the price) and is easy to built as I'm no expert in building.

With the Aromamizer do you use the dual coil rda? And do you use it on a TC mod?
Yep...I've been using it exclusively on the sx mini running on dual coils. However, just to set expectations, the Aromamizer excels well on higher wattage similar to tfv4 or crown on dual or quad coils.

The latest I've done is as per pic below...dual twisted nickel (my first time). I'm no expert in coiling but with the 2-post deck, it's awfully easy especially the wicking part.

Edit: With the 2 post deck, you can build a single coil that some have reported to work as well. You can join the Steam Crave fan club in FB to explore the various build that many have done in the tank and also get coupon codes for discounts. :)

Check out the Gem Rta, by Markbugs, it's expensive approx $180 but from what I've seen and heard a flavor chasers dream.
The gem is very well built but its average at best. It seems everything that comes out is the best ever. The gem doesn't touch the squape or rose in flavor. I could ring off many others that probably have it beat as well. The beauty of the hype machine is that you can get a great tank for cheap if you don't fall for said hype. Unfortunately I'm a suckers so I rifle through the latest offerings.

That's awesome! What gauge wire do you use?

It's 32g Nickel 2.5mm at 9 wraps. It's supposed to give me 0.65 ohms but my manual twisting method wasn't as accurate as I want it to be and ended up being 0.7x ohms. The flavor that's the twisted is throwing out is insane...I'm scared to think about claptons and other advanced coils...lol

To be frank, I'm not trying to sell you the Aromamizer :p...it's just my personal preference as I've owned and used Subtank Mini, Lemo2, UD Zeph and Billow v2. None of this is giving me the flavor and simplicity in building as to the Aromamizer (for high/max VG juices). My second best would be the Billow v2. :)

If you want a simple premade coil I would choose the Crown. It has great flavor with their nickel coils. I'm not really a fan of the rba deck though. I have a UD Zephyrus that I use with Titanium on an Evic VTC Mini. In my opinion the flavor is better than anything else I have tried. I have not yet tried the Aromamiser but I have heard that it is the closest thing to an RDA that you can get in a tank.
