Hey folks.

Well you know me,I'm always trying to help.

So anyway this friend of mine (works at the gas station,only part time thou),anyway i talked him into quitting smoking.

I wasn't using my Sceptre so i gave it to him so he could start without having to spend much money (apart from the e-liquid) and he has been using it for about 2 months.

Same as me when i started with a similar apparatus now at this moment he is craving something ''more''.

Poor guy is in a similar situation as me,his sister and him are taking care of his mom and he only works part time so he doesn't make much money.

I did win in Reddit a long time ago a giveaway and got a Luxe mod which i haven't used because call me crazy but i don't like double battery mods,just makes me uneasy.

Well anyway,i will give him the Luxe and now i was thinking of how he could upgrade from his Innokin Sceptre.

He is definitely a DTL vaper so i was thinking that he should get a Sub-Ohm tank.

Guy doesn't have much cash so i want to make sure he gets the right product,he already has the mod i am given him and the e-liquid that he DIY,just needs to buy two 18650 batteries and the tank so he can start vaping in style.

I do know he is a DTL vaper,by the way he vapes and he explains it to me i am 100% sure but i still don't know what wattage he will be into thou that is why i want him to have options.

So cutting to the chase,I'm looking for a good solid Sub Ohm tank that has a wide choice of coils to choose from.
I say this because personally i tried some high wattage sub ohm vaping and it's just not for me but i do want him to have the choice.

Ideal Sub Ohm tank would have several coils to choose from,maybe start him off with a 30w to 40w range coil and then if he needs more well he can just get coils that use a higher wattage.

Apart from that,you know the usual,no leaking,easy to change the coil,good solid and sturdy tank etc etc.

Would appreciate some advice on this because things rough for him at the moment,wish i could buy the sub ohm tank for him but as usual I'm also struggling a bit so the tank i tell him to buy has to be the right one.

So to summarize:

-Sub-Ohm tank
-Good quality
-Easy coil change
-Wide selection of coils ranging from ''low'' wattage like 30w to sky is the limit 80w/100w.

Thanks in advance for all the help :)

I have experience with exactly one sub-ohm tank, and I'm sure there will be many opinions on which is best for your friend, but the best option for someone who is cash strapped is an RDA. coils couldn't be cheaper, and most offer a range of air flow options to accommodate a range of vaping styles.

Thanks for the reply,really but yeah RDA/RTA aren't what he needs at the moment.

He is basically like me,doesn't want something complicated to start with,if he has to put the coils in and rewick and all that he will just quit and go back to cigarettes.

Maybe in due time he will give RTA's a try like i did but for now i just need to find him a good Sub-Ohm tank because just like me he is more into DTL than MTL.

Cost of buying drop in coils is way way less than the 10 euros he spent in a day before when he was smoking,for now he can afford the drop in coils and vape without the hassle of putting the coils in and rewicking.

But thanks anyway for the reply :)

I have no experience I just have seen the vaporesso gtx coils that has a wide range and also the voopoo pnp coils that I think they are not only for the pods....
Other than that I think eleaf makes some attys with wide range of coils but I don't know if they are good
Also.those freemax that I heard they are good drop in attys ??? Do they have many coils to choose?
U know better just remind u :p

I like Freemax tanks and coils.
He can get a Fireluke 2 for about $20, and a 5 pack of coils for between $12 and $18 depending on which resistance he prefers.

Thanks for the info.
Yeah just looked at the Fireluke 2 per your advice and it does seem like a good choice,plus there is a wide variety of coils to choose from.
I will look more into it,thanks bud.

cheers
