WOWZA! Those links are awesome! But, whats the difference between the 2 diff models and pricing? I noticed one is 1.8ohm and the other is 2.0ohm, but other than that, whats the difference?
Thanks!
Thanks for the tip on the pre built wire and wicks. Does anyone know if they work well in a mini protank 2?
That's a single wick and a multi-wick (i.e. three wicks inside the coil). The single wick is what I've seen recommended. After you've installed and trimmed, untwist a trimmed piece and then use some strands as flavor wicks.
I'm actually using the multi-wicks. After mounting and trimming, I use two pieces as flavor wicks -- no need to untwist. This is working flawlessly for me.
Yes, I use the mini PT 2 as well and see little/no performance differences from original. Wife is jealous of the clouds; I'll probably have to get her the same setup.
You know, I think this is a real problem with current vaping technology. If we don't want to build our own parts, we don't get real satisfaction. It's one thing to swap parts out and clean them; it's quite another to reconstruct parts of the setup.
I wasn't really looking for a new hobby.

Yeah, I agree. This technology is pretty new -- and still too "fidgety" and "fragile". Someday it will approach Zippo lighter status. But your answer is to just buy extra heads and replace them as needed (e.g. stop working or decreased flavor). Five packs of heads sell between $5 and $15. And it's an easy change that takes less than thirty seconds.
Do you know of a video that shows how to redo the wicks with the links you provided? And thanks for the info. Ive been vaping for awhile now, but never felt the need to upgrade til recently. Got my SVD today, and I am in LOVE 8)
I know Grimm Green for one has a video on rebuilding the ProTank (but there should be multiple videos on this). Kanger uses the same heads across much of their product line. You can just skip the part where he wraps the coils, since you'll already have in hand. It's not at all hard (if you have decent eyesight).
I juswt got my SVD today. I put the Davide BCC on it and the atty was like 3 days old. Tasted great at 4.2v/6watts with a 2.5atty in. Well, it was time to change the atty in it, so I put a fresh 2.5atty in, and had my previous settings saved. Hit it and NOTHING but burnt taste I messed with the VV/VW settings, and no matter what, it tastes like straight ...! Did I burn the coil because I didnt let the wicks soak up enough juice before I used it?
Please help me! A 3 day old atty should NOT taste better than a fresh atty What am I doing wrong? Is it just a beat atty from the get go? Or do I have to let the new atty soak up the juices for 10 minutes first? I NEVER had this problem before when I was using a Davide BCC and an Ego battery???

I put that same tank on my Ego battery just now, and its still not tasting great, but it doesnt taste as bad as the SVD???!!! It does taste kinda burnt thru that too now! I have never let the juices soak in before, so I figured just pop the new atty on and start vaping right away?!?!
I just got my wire and wick in the mail today and plan to give it a try ( rebuilding ) .A drop or two on a new or freshly cleaned coil/atty helps a lot .
Thast a great idea! I resolved the issue. I put a fresh atty in, and waited about 5 mins before i took a drag, and BAM, tastes great 8)
i found a website called picknpuff that sells premade sub ohm coils. they might would wrap other coils for different ohms, but don't quote me on that.
Kanger sucks imo. Same thing here. I have a Protank 3 with a dual coil. And I swear I burnt through em all in a few days. I think it's a bad batch though. Liquid goes right through the coils. When I get paid i'm definitely getting a better tank.
Ive said this alot since I joined, but i frickin LOVE all of my Davide BCC tanks! I have [2] Chrome and [1] Gold, and [1] Mini Davide BCC. Highly recommend them all. My dealer just got in like 25-30 Nautilus tanks with adjustable airflow, and Im buying one of those tomorrow or Sunday to go along with my new VTR! The Nautilus is like $40, but my dude said its amazing. And it'll be my first BDC tank! Hopefully the attys last a long time and it hits killer, since its a BDC!
Also, Kanger just released an adjustable airflow mod for their tanks. Im sure it would fit my Davide tanks too, but thats not verified! Plus, I like how well my Davide tanks hit so no reason to mod them!

Definitely the juice. The coils in my banana and grape flavors last a long time. My Boba's Bounty coils last at most 2 tanks before I have to clean them up.
I have a halo triton tank system... how many full tanks (2.4ml capacity) should my coils last? I mainly vape clear or light brown/golden color e-liquids?
Also, the website sells coils but I don't know what coil resistance I should buy, any advice or explanations?

finally, how often should I clean the tank and coils? It makes sense to clean it every time I change flavor, but what if I stick to one flavor after how many refills should I clean them?

When you buy the coils in the first link do you get the box with that same writing on it. I'd buy a couple packs just to have the boxes. Goonk Not Leaking no burnt smell.
You're most welcome.
No such luck. Though, of course I actually ended up with the second link, sadly my box came without the inscription.
Wicks and coils have been working fine none the less.
