Also, I've heard there is an "old" and "new" version of the subtank mini, something about the heads and airflow holes? Can anyone confirm? Thanks for the info.

The subbox kit comes with a "new" subtank mini that has larger juice holes for the rba section. The airflow controller is the same as the "revised" airflow controller: the original had a single airflow slot, whereas the "revised" has two smaller airflow slots on either side. (I say "revised" because that style of airflow controller has been available for a couple of months.) Beyond that, the only difference between the mini you get with the kit and what you can currently buy separately is that the subbox subtank minis are colored vs. steel.

With the release of the subbox kit, Kanger has also changed the design of the heads. The newer heads come in 0.5, 1.0, and 1.5 ohms, have a vertical coil (instead of horizontal), and appear to be much more difficult to take apart/rebuild. The older heads come in 0.5 and 1.2 ohms, have horizontal coils, and can be rebuilt more easily. As far as I know, both can be used in any variety of subtank interchangeably.

I use the efest purple 2500mah for most of mine. I've seen they now have it in 2800mah - I might try those if I find some at a good price.

I also use the purple Efest 2500 mah 18650s with no problems. I have not heard about the 2800 mah version.

PS. Hi Nancy! (I missed your first post. )

Welcome Nancy!

After some other household chores, I went to get groceries. I didn't want to, but I needed food and now I won't have to leave my place tomorrow. I can be a slug all day long!

Need some more coffee and get some things done before the heat and humidity go too high.

I seen the 2800mah listed on 1 or 2 sites - don't remember which one. If I remember correctly, they're also rated at 35A.

Yeah with their track record I don't trust them really being 35A.

3. @Utsuru - For batteries Samsung 25r are really good batteries...I have several of them and they don't cost too much either. I also use Sony Vtc4 and Vtc5...All of these highly rated batteries and are great for subohm applications.

2. You deserve to treat yourself Tiggs! Go for it!

Think it's just going to be Subway for us for dinner tonight...we're all too sluggish to cook tonight!

6/13 - 3: I did and will do so. Steak again tonight with sausage and veggies. Tomorrow most likely grilled chicken and veggies... on and on and on.

6/13 - 4: Just messaged the father in law with a warning, and a compromise. If he truly cares about what is due her daughter and our children; though the children have all their possessions; then bring me back what is mine. If they want to play hard ball, even though I have the worst judge in this area, then it will all be sold. If that is the case then she owes me around $20,000 dollars, before the house is even sold. Even at that she does not get 50%. I am getting less patient, I have tried more than many times to take care of them. All is documented, come on judge do me wrong.... I will win at the end.

One advantage of the subtank is that you can either use the heads or build your own coil with the rba section. If you are planning on mostly using the rba section, then two heads are enough. If you prefer to use heads, I would recommend getting more. You should also know that you can rebuild the older subtank heads but I'm not sure about the newer heads (which are the ones included with the subbox).

From what I've seen, you cannot rebuild to new heads... Sad... But, understandable...

In other news, you needn't worry about my buying a new mod and tank.

It wasn't a tank...

It was a KUI and a 22 mm Nuppin...

and a Big Dripper...

Now I need a mod for the Big Dripper...

***sigh***

@Utsuru
@angelphyre is one of the lucky ones with Sony VTCs. Don't buy them now as they are likely forgeries. Sony has recently come out and stated - point blank - that they are no longer making or selling these. I use Purple Efest 35 A and MXJOs and LG HE4.

Thanks for all the tidbits about batteries, if I do go after the subox mini kit I'll probably try to get those green Samsungs. I'm a bit worried now as I thought the new coils were super easy to rebuild which is what lead me to wanting the device in the first place, if the new style is difficult/impossible to rebuild then I'll have to look for another device which is a huge bummer. I'd probably have to end up getting like a Cool Fire IV and some kind of easy to build on RTA. The site I was going to buy from is going to get in Goliath V2s and Goblin Mini RTAs soon and had my eye on those, I don't know a lot about those either and how easy they are to fiddle with. I'm really just looking for something affordable and easy to work with. I can't afford buying 5 packs of coils at $20.

I hope everyone's having a good night, I guess I'm going to sign outta the tree sanctuary for the evening, thanks again for everyone's insight. Sleep well!
