Just FYI, I think the Kanger Top Tank may be closer to an “option 2” friendly device (higher power, lower nic, thicker clouds), while the Ego Mega CLR tanks are closer to an “option one” device (lower power, higher nic, less thick vapor). (Caveat: I don’t have a Top Tank.).
I typically vape my 1.0 coils at about 10 watts. But I am a wattage total weenie.

You can get a satisfying vape using a 1.0ohm coil in the ego Tank by starting the wattage at 9.8(for a new coil) and breaking a new coil in.
Wow, I didn't catch that. I didn't know anyone ever used the original CL coils.
This is good to know! I smoked for 16 years and some days have been much harder than others. I will try some of my stronger nic juices because today has been a fight all day to not run next door with a quarter for the neighbor in exchange for a cigarette!
YOU'RE a weenie?
8-9 for me, dearie. And lovin' it!
MrsWood, I'm late to your party, but I must say you got some incredible info here. I do hope you keep us posted on your experiences with either lowering your wattage, and/or increasing your mg. strength.
Seems to me for the amount of cigs you smoked, you'd want to consider a much higher mg. e-liquid.
Again, it'll be good to follow your progress together.
I find a much lower wattage works for me to break in a coil. With some tanks (wire, wick, air, etc.) I need to start much lower than 9.8w. But then again, 9.8w for me is on the high end of vaping wattage.
I used one. Once.
A QUARTER????? LOL! Around here it's about 2 bucks per "borrowed" smoke.
Heh. The CLR coil IS the “RBA” for the Ego One line of tanks. The CLR coils are rebuildable. I use SS 316L wire in mine and run them in temperature control mode.I put some of the dragon fruit 12mg I had in the tank and currently have it on 18.5w. I am now able to hit for about 3.5s with no burn thanks to everyone on this thread!!! I am finally starting to be less agitated and seem to be able to reach a point where I can walk away from my vape for more than 5 minutes(it's still not out of sight though)!
I am looking into getting an RBA for the ego one mega tank I have at 0.5Ω so that I will be able to vape at a higher wattage. The higer wattage seems to be what I prefer.
Pall Mall Red 100s(my brand of choice) are $3.90/pack here after tax some places are as low as $3.50 after tax.

Technically they are not really rba. The CLR coils are actually look-a-likes for the reg CL stock coils. Once you pick up some you will see how it works. Like some members have already stated, when the taste starts to change or it just doesn't taste good anymore, carefully pull out the cotton wicking, pulse-dry burn with hitting the fire button a couple of times to burn the gunk off the coil. Pulse burn is hitting the fire button for a second or two. Then put in new wicking, juice it up and good to go.I put some of the dragon fruit 12mg I had in the tank and currently have it on 18.5w.

I think they’re advertised as being rebuildable. No?Technically they are not really rba. The CLR coils are actually look-a-likes for the reg CL stock coils.

Yes you are correct. When I think rba, i always seem to envision a deck and a glass tank. But in this case it is just the atomizer. So I stand corrected. And yes, the easiest rebuildable coil I have ever tried.I think they’re advertised as being rebuildable. No?
To me they’re as easy to rebuild as anything else I’ve tried so far.

Hey! I think I recognize that voice.Here’s a vid by a forum member:
...or you could use them for spare parts?I have some Ni and Ti CL coils. If anyone wants them, PM me and they are yours.n
Mrs, seems to me your journey is taking you to higher nic and lower wattage. Keep playing and experimenting to see what you like!
As said, the CLRs are rebuildable. There's no "RBA" for the Eggs (Ego One Mega). I'm still not clear why you like a higher wattage, but with all the help here, welp, we'll be cheering you on to find the abstolute sweet spot for you!
