Best tank for 1 ohm+ vaping?

[Jordannn15]

I am looking for the best tank for vaping at 1 ohm and above. Right now I have a Ipv3 li and a Uwell crown tank, the vapor production is great and flavor is pretty good but it goes through juice so fast with either the .25 ohm dual coil or the .15 temp control coil. I figure I can get the same flavor or better and about the same vapor production with a coil 1 ohm+. I have a freakshow rda on the way too, how much more flavor will I get out of the rda than a tank?

Thinking about trying the kanger subbox mini kit and using the 1.2 ohm coil. I just want the best flavor I can get without running through juice with low ohm coils.

to use less juice you need a lower power (watts) coil.
you will also get less cloud.

Kayfun for 1.0ohm + satisfaction.

Sub-ohm for Mo Cloud

I hear the 1.4ohm coils for the Triton works real well-it is made with stainless steel wire, which I hear produces great flavor.

+1 on a Kayfun. Mine is set up @ 1.4 ohms and 20W. Great flavor and a decent lil cloud for a tootle puffer.

 

[Kevin littell]

Kayfun hands down.


Can be rewicked in Atlanta Rush hour traffic,

I hope you didn't try that on 2 wheels... Lol!

Taifun is even easier than Kayfun, and a bit better (OK, may be equal) in flavor.

Is the Russian 91% the same thing as the kayfun? I have 24g kanthal on the way, whats a good 1ohm+ build? I am thinking about getting some 28g kanthal to build micro coils.

 

[Hans Wermhat]

Yep, virtually the same. I think the airflow is a lil different? You will need 28G for a KF/R91 for sure. The screws are too small to hold 24G and there isn't enough room to get the resistance up over 1 ohm with wire that big. I build mine at 1.4 ohms - 28G 8 wraps @ 2mm. I tried it with 26G and the screws kept pushing the wire out when I tightened them down.

They are all serviceable RTAs, but coiling and wicking are the real difference. There are a lot of "techniques" in that area that will make differences.

Russian 91% is the same as a Kayfun light. Get some 28 awg for a 8wrap 2.3mm contact coil.

I would not go as small as micro coils (1.5-1.9mm ID) but you can.

I liked the Kayfun... but I luv the Aqua V2....

 

[EBates]

Yeah, another KF vote. I run a 2.5ohm, 32ga kanthal, tensioned microcoil on my 3.1's and my KFL and tootle puff along at 7 watts. Very happy.

ETA: and No I don't rewick in traffic (anywhere).

+1 vote for a Kayfun. If you get one, make it a Light+ rather than a V4.

To reduce your juice consumption, your looking primarily at building coils with less surface area. You can turn the watts down, but that cools your vape as well.

To get a kanthal coil build up over 1.0 ohms, your likely going to want 28awg or thinner wire. I run 2.5 ID spaced 6 wrap 26awg in mine which comes out at 0.8 ohms with a coil surface area of 80 mm sq, or a 2.5 ID spaced 6 wrap 27awg at 1.0 ohms with a coil surface area of 70 mm sq, so 28 should do you.

Whatever you try, do put your coil specs into the Steam Engine so you can see what surface area your getting. Hit the advanced button in the Steam Engine to see the coil surface area. You can do the same with your TC coils for a comparison.

Agree with Kahina's suggestion of KFL+ over KFv4. R91% is pretty much the same as a KFL+ (I actually prefer the Russian to the Kayfun).

If you're willing to spend a little more, Squape RS is even better in my opinion (which, coincidentally, is the right opinion ).

 

[kaahn]

I vape the Lemo RTA. Easy build deck great flavor and with coils from 1.2 to 1.5 it won't suck down juice so fast that you have to take a second on your home.

 

[Frenchfry1942]

I also "still" use the Lemo along with others. Since they are so inexpensive, I don't think anyone bothered with a clone. Buying an authentic KF V4 is a second on your home.

 

[McCoys]

The Vapor Giant Mini V2 is right up there with my authentic Taifun GT II. I also like the UCT/Kebo Russians (favorite : Full Russian>91%)but the draw is tighter.

 

[Blackboar]

I own a Kayfun lite plus and a Lemo (v1). Out of the 2, I prefer the Lemo v1. Airflow is good, it's easy to build, it's at a great price point, and it is pretty much leak proof.

I usually build them both to about 1.2 to 1.4 ohms. I'll vape them off a DNA 30 or DNA 40 device at around 22-27 watts. The vapor production and airflow is better on the Lemo, but the Kayfun is slightly better on flavor.
