i have a kanger subtank mini with a laisimo 200w box. I'm currently using .5 ohm coils and vaping "milk" by glas. I keep my box between 25-30w all the time. My coils are burning out in 2-3days. I always keep the airflow all the way open as well. How could I possibly be going through coils this much?

Hi Mike, welcome to ECF, check out the RBA deck , there is a learning curve associated with it but once you get the knack you will not look back ( rhyme was unintentional
)

Have you only been using the milk juice in it, how much juice do you go through in a day?
How do you prime them and how often do you use it? Chain vaping will result in stock coils burning out quite quickly as I've learned the hard way. Best to get your nicotine fix in sessions, wait a bit for the coil to cool, and repeat.
Which type of coils are you using?
The older OCC coils, or the newer SSOCC coils?
If they are the SSOCC coils do they have two or three juice holes?

Air flow is both your friend and enemy. Although I am not familiar with the Kanger Subtank Mini, generally speaking, MANY atomizers rely on air flow to cool the coils AND pull more e-liquid into the wick. When you draw on the atomizer, you create a partial vacuum in the chamber which allows more e-liquid to be drawn into the coil area than natural wicking action would on its own.
Also, you didn't state how much e-liquid you were going through in a day, but depending on the composition of the e-liquid, I've personally had to re-wick from between 10 and 40 (or so) ml, depending on the e-liquid being vaped.
As has been stated above by DebiK, dark or sweet liquids do gunk up coils faster. Two or three days on a factory coil isn't that unheard of.
I also have the kanger subtank mini and i was going thru coils within a few days. I go through 2-2 1/2 tanks of juice a day. I went and bought a coil making kit and started using the rba and havent looked back! I will not buy another coil! I use 28g wire and make parrallel coils that come out to a .5ohm. Cotton lasts about a week before i change it. I use the cotton bacon and havent even gone thru a 1/4 of the pack yet and have had it for almost 2 mths!
The pre-made OCC coils are often of suspect quality and performance, the sooner you move to the RBA section the better.
