Have you tried the isub Claptons yet?
Don't think I got any iSub coils except the ones that came with the Apex - normal kanthal - tbh I have one main issue with the tank in that you have problems seeing how much juice is still in it, due to the double tank system, I do like the top airflow though, alleviates leaking like you get with a lot of tanks that have the airflow at the bottom.

The only tanks I have with pre-made Claptons in are a Triton 2 (bought a pack of coils to try) 0.5 ohm 35w on a 50w Zero and the SMOK TFV4 Mini 0.2 ohm 80w on a Sig 100+ which came with one installed, both of which are very good.

I read that condensation builds up between the two layers is that the cause of not being able to see the liquid level?
Reason i asked about the Claptons, i didn't realise Innokin had released them until i just watched a Vic Mullen review.

Is it possible to buy just the tank?Can't see it listed as a seperate.
Not from Heaven Gifts, that's why they sent me the freebie sample, so they can get feedback as to whether to stock it.
They do have it on the same site that I have ordered the spare coils from, which can fit into the Atlantis, Triton & Melo (v1 & v2 tanks)
Scroll down on this page for both the tank and the coils:Vaporesso Best E Cigarette Vape, Vaporizer Mod, Tank

Looking at the price of the tank, I would get the coils only and try them in the Triton

I'll get some coils,the Orctank looks smart tho'

Edit: Subohmmasters here in the UK have a pre-order for the kit,so maybe they will stock the coils in the future.

Never saw the Orctank, it looks nicer than the Target Tank, and top filling as well, the Target is bottom fill only.

Never heard of them, who are they, where are they based, no info on their page only an email address, which doesn't mean they are here in the UK, also £69.99 + maybe postage - I paid £62.95 and that was with DHL express shipping ($17 on the airwaybill so no VAT to pay).

Thanks! I'll stick with the Nautilus standard coils at 1.8 :laugh:
I understand being comfortable with a setup but honestly the flavor is so much better with the new coils. It's night and day. The nautilus coils are just so muted. I really think you should try one of the 1.2 coils. It's such an improvement. Just try it. I'll be surprised if the older nautilus coils aren't phased out in favor of these new ones. They are also I believe pure cotton without all the extra filler material that's in the nautilus coils. Especially wih the kind of juice that you and I vape. Additionally they wick way better. My 90% vg has no issue in the new coils but in the nautilus I had to dilute it with distilled water. Sweet heavy vg juices really are just that much better in the new ones

Obviously the up to you. I'm not trying to be pushy I'm just excited they made such an improvement in the same form racket. I'd hate to see you close off to he possibility of a much better vape though. Even though they're 1.2 you can always reduce power a bit, not that they blast you with vapor at default settings. Maybe a local shop will have a single one to buy for a trial. I'd be shocked if you felt the same way after trying the new one. Or I will drop a single one in an envelope. A no downside trial for you!

As for the sore throat. I seem
To have hit a speed bump in recovery. My entire body is fighting something. I've taken a backwards step regarding post op pain and I'm feeling like my glands are pushing through my skin. I hope it's not an infection in the surgical area.


Post came, but nothing from Chefs. So we'll both hope our packages arrive on Monday!

Right! - as for rebuilding, that's something I wouldn't want to do - that's why I have a huge number of various coils stored in a box for future needs!

So now I find that my speakers aren't working - they were fine yesterday, but just crackle briefly when I turn them on now! Not had this happen before, so not sure if it's the speakers or something inside the computer! Not in the mood for malfunctioning stuff! :facepalm:

Anyway, I'm unlikely to rebuild coils ;)

Fortunately the clr coils are roughly the same
Price as the CL coils. So even if
You chuck them out its fine. They too are a massive improvement though not as night and day as the nautilus mini vs triton mini coils in the nautilus

Think you are probably right about the condensation, I did ask Innokin on FB if they had any plans for TC coils, they said they would pass my query on, but not at the moment maybe later on - Innokin always appear to be late to the show, but when they do appear the goods are very good, they still haven't made a TC mod.

@Brynglas I'm sure they're working on a temp Control setup. They seem to be one of the more reliable Asian manufacturers whose mods seem to be built to last. I have a mvp2 sitting here and I can't bring myself to get rid of it as it charges my iPhone. By its big and low power. If love to see a new modern mvp with all their features in a smaller form factor with temp control. I really like them as a manufacturer.

I missed it earlier. Which tank did they make that offers Clapton coils?

If it's the new apex 5 that tank looks like it's built for flavor. I love he small collection area.

Maybe they are in no hurry with Ni coils,they do say they'll have TC running on Kanthal out before Xmas.Who knows?

Given the temperature coefficient of kanthal that's extremely unlikely they'll be able to using existing temp control techniques. . The mod would have to be so sensitive to resistance change I feel it would trip up regularly. There's a reason nobody is doing that- though many have offered smart kanthal settings which have been mistaken for temp control kanthal. Anyway. Maybe they have some very new way of temp control that doesn't just read resistance changes. Like an actual probe in the deck area or something. Or a modular coil with disposable temp sensor of some kind ?

Mitcham/Wimbledon way Bob.
They have a FB page aswell.

I thought,just for coils,they can't rob me too bad.
That's not far from me - they will need to get info on the web pages though, address & phone number to comply with UK laws on distance selling.
The IVOGO Velocity they have listed is the same as the black one on FT with the BF pin included. My spare cCell coils are somewhere between China and here when I last looked, paid £24.55 for 10 so not too bad, and my Aromamizer & Crius have left Singapore, so hoping everything arrives later this week, if RM get their fingers out.

iSub series, so yes includes the Apex, which I have, but it is really hard to see whether it needs filling or not, as George says probably condensation between the 2 tanks, it has a glass tank surrounded by a plastic one, so they are able to put the airflow higher up, which is a good idea, stops any leakage unless you turn it upside down then any juice in the coil area will come up the outer tank.

What are the new Kanger coils all
About. I just saw them. I have a sub tank I never use because the coils do nothing but slit juice. Produce tiny amounts of vapor. And burn my throat. The new coils look interesting in terms of design. I assume they just came out but wondering if anyone tried them


Thanks for the info above Bob. Presumably those tanks are quite durable then too.

My GEM tanks have terrible
Glass. They keep breaking from just standing on the nightstand. Yes ridiculous. Never had any glass break like that. So now I feel like being more concerned about glass for a while :)

I take it,it's authentic?Considering the price,that's bad.
