That's the reason I chose the Davide as it gas,an adapter which allows it to use either Kanger or Aspire coils. No more running out if coils only to find the nearest B&M is out of stock on the one you need.

It shipped with Aspire BDC heads and I bought some replacement BVC heads... like em both well enough, but looking forward to the Subtank mini.

I was, however, disappointed with the lifespan of the Kanger coils I had with the T3'D and EVOD2. Maybe I had a bad batch, but they burnt out quick...

Do you rebuild your heads? I have several boxes of spare heads that I haven't used because I rebuild the coils in the heads I do use. Even if you aren't into rebuilding the coils themselves, you can still prolong the use of your heads by replacing the wick after dry-burning and cleaning the coil (if you're interested in this, let me know and I'll PM you some instructions). This saves the expense of having to continually buy new replacement heads and can even improve their flavor and/or longevity. The Kanger heads are easy to fix--I'm not sure about the Aspire heads.

One of the problems you may be experiencing with the Kanger coils (based on the tanks you cited), is the fact that the heads are dual coil. This sometimes improves the flavor (arguable), but it also presents multiple points of failure versus a single point with a single coil. And, because the two coils are stacked on one another, the top coil usually burns out faster than the bottom one. With these sorts of heads, I like to rebuild them with a single, larger coil.

Just some thoughts.... I know that it can sound intimidating, but re-wicking is incredibly easy. Coil building is a little more complicated, but not all that much harder.

(Since this is my last contest post for the day, I'll post any replies on the other thread.)

5. Woohoo! I have vapemail out for delivery...my new IPV mini is being delivered today...Yay a new toy to play with when I get home!

As for tanks, I'm afraid I'm not much help as I mostly use RBAs. I do however have a couple of Nautiluses and one Aerotank in my regular rotation, and of course the new Subtank, and a subtank nano that should arrive any day. I like my Nautis with the BVC coil, and the coils last me a while, but my favorite of the tanks is the Subtank...this thing really rocks! I've had it over 2 weeks and still haven't had to change the coil yet...still getting amazing flavor out of it!

I have not looked into rebuilding as I felt I had enough on my plate between broom making, web design and hosting, and farm life (yeah, and I'm self unemployed [emoji4]). However, more and more, it's looking like I might be thrust into it kicking and screaming. So, with that in mind, send me what you got...

And, thanks.

1. Is this really my first post of the day? I could have swore I posted this morning, but don't see it. I've got a killer headache so I don't know..lol

Welcome to the treefam Shawn. I have a ton of different tanks, and before getting the subtank, the Kanger mini protank 2 (single coil) was my favorite tank. I have the Nautilus (love), Smok T-dux 4 (love) and a few others. I also have the Atlantis, but prefer the Subtank over it.

I got my second Subtank that I purchased today, also got my contest winnings of a coilmaster and Subtank. Woot, I'm so excited to have 3 subtanks now. I wish I had about 10 of them..lol.

Angel, I think the mail man ate that wire and cotton. It's crazy that I've got vapemail from a bunch of different states in a couple of days before I get something from my own state. I'm sure it'll be here soon, the post office is not the most organized operation. Let me know how you like your IPV mini, it's on my list of choices. I think I've taken the MVP 3 off my wish list, I want at least a 50watt I think.

Vape Mail!

2 new tanks DID arrive today. Very happy thus far with the Aspire Vivi Nova BDC, but, to be honest, the iClear 30 (no letter attached) just feels cheap and plasticy.

Ah, well, it was cheap, so what did I expect. Now, at least, I have another backup.

Neither came with a vanity ring, so use on my eGo batts is either out, or ugly. The iClear was VERY bare bones - no extra nothing - but was VERY nicely packaged in a plastic, foam lined box. The Vivi uses the same coils as my Davide and came with 2 additional coils - bonus!

I bought the Vivi for use on my Kamry pipe. I think it looks better. You?
