I'd like to start venturing into this kinda stuff now that I have an ohm reader on my MVP 2. Why a protank? I have 4 of 'em. lol. Got any advice or experience in this matter? please help out! links, vids, etc. Thanks!

You may want to just get an rba. The wick in the Protank really isn't big enough for doing sub-ohm to keep up wicking wise. The tiny space would be difficult for dual-coil. I would suggest looking at a micro coil in it.
I plan on getting an IGO-L this week. I posted this topic to see if I don't really need to get one in order to venture into this territory. In my protank setup I use a 3mm wick, and was hoping it would be enough.
RDA or RBA - I can see the coils of the PT melting and welding onto the connector on the battery.
Nacon I was referring to the actual length of the wick, it is so short that a decent pull on a sub-ohm coil would end up drying it (without sufficient wicking) and give burnt/nasty hits. The IGO-L seems like a better option for sub-ohm (not speaking from experience just what I've read) and just rebuild the Protank heads using a "normal" resistance. Or as I mentioned look at running a micro-coil in the Protank, I set one up in an old head I had and used cotton, didn't like the cottony taste, but it worked great and the un-cottony hits were fantastic.
I've decided I'm a cartotank guy, wish I hadn't just recently picked up a Protank 2 but it'll give me something to mess around with. Along with the AGA-T+ collecting dust

Feel nfree to mail me any rebuildable that you don't want.
Protank is not made for sub ohm or dual coils IME. Buy a Fogger II. They are an RBA. I've got one. Can do mesh, cotton or silica. But not a dual coil unless you twist the wires. You can also do ribbon wire.
The reason they won't like sub ohm is that rubber piece on the bottom of the head and the small area. Protanks are not and RBA that is what you want if you want to do that other stuff.
1. You can do subohm on a protank (mild subohm).
2. You probably can't do dual coil on a protank.
3. You don't need to go subohm on a protank to improve it significantly. Out of the box they will not support 15 watts, you have to rebuild/mod to get it there.

I use dual micro coils on a protank exclusively. In my opinion it is the best vape possible from a protank rebuild. I've built up to triple micro coils in the atomizer but its too much of a pain to rewick them. Check this link and photos. http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...al-micro-coils-tripple-coils-protank-2-a.html
I also vape sub ohm .7 on the protank regularly. 28g 11 micro coil wraps on 18 ga needle. I like the crackle vape with this one but the flavor and TH is the best with a dual micro coil and Cotton by far.
I know this is an old thread but since i just made a video on this as an expirement, i figured i would post my results here. The main reason sub ohm does not vape well on the protank is because the wick (using cotton, i would never dare use silica for a subohm protank) cannot wick as well as an actual rba. Flybykite, your example seems very interesting, i will have to try it out. I am not saying sub ohm is neccessarily "bad" on the protank, but it is better with an rba. In this video i did a high .8 ohm single coil.
Nothing melts in the protank btw, i dont know who it is saying they have melting issues but i have never ever experienced it.
