Cool, thanks for the info. That's one thing about this... hobby. What works for one person doesn't always work for someone else.

Oh, and yea... Through the airflow is where the iSub and Aspire Atlantis tanks leak so I'd say avoid those.
When it's through the airflow, it is usually the coil. It could be loose, it could be flooded, it could be missing an o ring, or may just be a wonky coil. At any rate, they are good tanks but I don't want to get a beginner on one for a 1st tank. I think the Cubis because it has higher ohm coils available and less airflow plus no way it can leak. It's pretty much a plug and play tank. Even the guy at my local B&M loves his. To me the flavor is meh compared to my TFV4s and my RDAs but others say it gives lots of flavor.

Good morning GPC, Good morning all. I have brown sugar cinnamon biscuits in the oven. What my brother calls "Cinnabiscuits". I have 5 days off before Mother's Day madness in the floral business begins so I am going to enjoy cooking and catching up on a few things around the house:)

Yea, the iSub seems to leak around the coil... It's a tank I gave a buddy to get him away from some little do dad tank. We've added o rings and slowed it way down. I think it's mostly the o ring the coil slides through.

That Cubis looks pretty decent.

It is a decent tank, airflow is not as good as a subtank but it can chuck some clouds, even on a 1.0 ohm coil. Its my set-up for work. I have to make sure the Cuboid is turned off in my pocket or I have huge vapor clouds coming out of my pocket. It also has an RBA and the new Notch coil available

I just use bisquick, its easy enough.
For on the go quick I get the frozen Pillsbury biscuits. Taste like home made and you can just take out of the bag however many biscuits you want, much better than can biscuits:drool:

GPC, you have to get an IPV5, it is slick. Now I want to order the Griffin 25 with Top airflow for it. I folded on the RX200 and went ahead and ordered another one. I really liked the device except for the shallow 510 and my heating issues came after I updated it to version 3.10 that raised it to 250 watts. I just won't install the latest update. I still hate that Wismec is stating that it is only for use with their tanks and RDAS or the warranty is voided. They may as well say that there is no warranty. Vape NW took care of my issue quick though and I had my store credit within 2 days.:w00t: Now I want a 2nd IPV5, yes it is that good;) I also plan on getting the new TFV G2 Rebuildable Tank. That should have my vape gear updated for the rest of the year:cool:

@gofishtx I know somebody willing to trade one for an IPV5. :lol::lol::shock::lol::lol:
Thanks but my arsenal of mechanicals is full right now:p I prefer regulated devices, I don't want to blow my face off. Mom likes my face:D My mech mods are napping in my vapocolypse box for now. I just want a blue IPV5 now, I got a black one because everyone was out of blue:( Sweet device for around $40

PS I am loving my little Pico, I have to order another one for my brother and one for my cousin. I will be putting the Cubis Tanks on theirs as the Melo3 Mini in the kit is a bit small.

Does the IPV5 have the 5 power setting memory like the 4s? The fire button on my iPV4s is getting a little fickle and it's not a year old.
Yes it does. Same chip I believe, the Yihi sx 330. The button feels solid and is nice, firm and clicky. You could probably replace the button or fix the boot spring under the button, if you are mechanically inclined.

I'll probably tear into it soon. I'm hoping it's just dirty or something. I'm usually pretty good with this sort of thing but if I trash it.... I wondered if I wanted another 4s or 5. Thanks!

I don't really use the subtanks anymore, but they are notorious for leaking issues. Mine would leak a little thru the airflow, not real bad but more than my other tanks.

Kanger Subtank Mini LEAKING

Yeah, agreed..... I had a ST mini and did everything to stop the leak. New base, replaced to bell cap, replaced seals, variety of coils incl rba. ALL leaked no matter what. Gave up on this after reading some other people having trouble too.

I have 5 Smok VCT tanks, and 3 TFV4. Very rarely do they leak unless I did something wrong or they been abused.

Just ordered the Smok stick one plus.... 26 bucks shipped.
Will be curious to see how it performs and @gofishtx might consider this as it can do both MTL and Direct to lung.

Whoa! Did not know Rx200 can be upgraded to 250W. I have had it for one month now and love it. But, I have it at max 70W..........
