is it safe?

Ive noticed some of the newer subohm tanks that come with prebuit coils say they are specifically made to handle 20 to 30 watts safely, my question is will it be safe for me to rebuild one of my kanger heads to subohm specs and use it in a aerotank or emow tank?

I wouldn't think it would be safe. There's a lot of variables, heat probably being the largest. The coil heads on the subohm tanks are a lot larger, and designed to dissipate more heat.

knowing that you like the emow like I do... you might really like the ego one tanks. I've switched over to ego one with a 1 ohm coil on an istick 30, and it's what I always wished my emow would be. It's nicer than the nautilus imo. (I also put my emow stuff up on the classifieds here, if you're looking for more parts for your set.)

If the tank materials aren't intended to run sub-ohm, you could damage them, specifically the insulators. Be careful.

I don't think it would wick fast enough for sub-ohm use. Just my

Airflow is also going to be a concern.

Are you asking if you can rebuild a subtank head and put it in an aerotank? Or are you asking if you can rebuild a stock aerotank head to subohm?

If it's the former, then the answer is no. A subtank head will not fit in an aerotank.

If it's the latter, I don't see why you couldn't build a stock aerotank head to subohm. But, the bigger question is WHY? Those tanks aren't made for subohming and I am not sure they have the airflow necessary to accommodate such a build (and I am not sure if the coil itself will hold up).

Thanks for the input everyone.
