Hey guys, need your knowledge and advice here.

I started vaping last year and think its time to upgrade, but last year it was waaay easier to choose what i wanted. Everyone just recommended kayfun...so i got one...and i liked it for the most part. But i did find it too fiddly to get right and i doubt i ever got it to its full potential. every time i would use some crapy evod i swear it would taste better, but have way less vapor than the kayfun lite. So now i would really like something thats has better flavour than the kfl but that is also simple and reliable. wether thats a tank or rta that has a fool proof setup. I also need one thats good for the mouth to lung hits. BUT THERE'S SO MANY CHOICES THESE DAYS WITH NO CLEAR WINNERS, that i can see...so is there a consenses on whats best?

Ill be using a istick 50w, upgraded from my 18350 mech.

TL;DR - Whats the best tank or rta for flavour, m2l, and is simple and reliable to use??

thanks guys, really need your help to narrow it down

I can only advise a good subtank for the 50w, and it will be different for many people and IMO It also depends on what your looking to vape. Might sound crazy, but I like different tanks for different things. I have noticed that sweeter juices I like with less wattage, and heavier juices like custards/cake flavors I like higher and warmer..
So for me,
-Kanger STM tropical fruitty sweet juices around 24-26w
-Smok VCT Pro when I want more kick 40-60w
-Freemax Starre (0.5ohm coil) when I want the fullest thick nice warm clouds and flavor, 45w and up

Hope this helps

My suggestion would be a Subtank Mini. It has both interchangeable stock coil heads, and an RBA section in case you wanna rebuild, not to mention it is a great device. I use MTL for when I'm stealth Vaping in the movies or something, and it works great for me. I prefer DTL, but to each his own, and if you wanted to get a new mod to go with it, they have an updated version with the Subox Mini Starter Kit for around $50 here.

Great device, great tank, great company. Just my opinions, so don't take them as fact, but good luck! :)

Billow2 is the best tank I've had, though I'm not a person that has 20+ yanks lol. I've got 6 tanks and none of them will be used again, along with most of my drippers. Four-post dual coil deck to build on, many tutorial vids if you don't already know how, and this tank is easy to build on and very forgiving, regardless of what you may hear once in a while. No leaking, gurgling, or dry hits, when you build it right,which is simple.
If you just want to "plug and play" then the Subtank Mini may be a good option, just pop in a coil head and you're good to go, and if you ever did want to build your own, there's the rta section there for ya. I don't have the STM but alot of people like and love them.
Once you take the plunge and get an atty, you'll know ALOT more, and you will know where to go from there. Good luck and let us know how things go!

Well, these are some of my favorites, but they have a learning curve: Rose v2 and Eviva-t. The Rose clones work fine. I have an authentic and two clones. There are no clones of the Eviva, but its on the less expensive side as far as high end authentics go.

The Lemos have great flavor. Kayfun like, but much larger juice channels and wider range of airflow choices.

I think the Prometeys are the easiest RTA to set up, but some folks hate an all metal tank. Tobeco does make a nice Prom 2 clone.

Taifun GTs are very easy to set up as well. And the TGT2 has more airflow options than the first version. Most of the clones seem to be working fine.

Thanks for the replies guys.

Ya im wondering if a subtank is the way I should be going. But theres soooo many. Whats best for flavour and which has the largest wattage vaping range?

So iv been thinking and hope this helps. A feature inwould like is ease of filling. Im tired of the screw in the kayfun. So top filling is a feature I would like. I dont know about other features like juice control but they sound cool.

Things im interested in now are the obs tvct, kanger stm, vct pro, zephyrus, and delta 2.

hopefully this helps

Also if it helps I do prefer vaping 70/30 or 80/20 vg/pg

Thanks guys

The Subtank mini, as I said before is my go to. The Delta 2 is also good, but it whistles like a freaking freight train. As for top filling? Maybe the Lemo 2? Idk. I've used it. Good tank. Don't own one. Wouldn't. I just feel like my Subtank does everything that it does, but better. The Subtank in my opinion is king of flavor when it comes to tanks. And with the rebuildable section, you can Vape it at /any/ wattage you wanna build to. I've used mine with a dual micro build at 90 watts. Gotta use thinner juices that high, but still. The new one that comes with the Kbox Mini in their new Subox Mini Starter Kit actually has an upgraded RBA section and is freaking amazing even with 100 VG.
