Crap I think I just threw that away the egrip rba adaptor. Figures.

Anyway for now I'm holding on the cubis. It doesn't really seem to offer anything to me the clr avatars don't already. With great flavor and density and cheaper pricing than the rba for cubis. Instead I see a torn to tank paired to a mini foot or pico clone

What are:
"clr avatars"?
"torn to tank"?
"mini foot"?

Even considering typos I can't figure out what you are saying?

Since I'm NOT thrilled with the crappy design of the Cubis RBA, I have a Pico clone coming on slow boat from China, and today got delivery of two Goblin Mini V2's. Granted none of these two are going to be as leak proof as the Cubis, I'm still looking for small tanks that can compete with my STM tanks.

Okay so here is my final synopsius.

I truly enjoy my enduraT18 coil MUCH more than the Cubis.
Why? It feeds through the juice much more efficiently because of all the juice ports which is delivering hardcore vapour and flavour (more so than when I had it paired with its paired battery) AND it is proving to be a lot less finicky than working with the Cubis at this point

Even though Innokin suggests that it would be fruitless to use this tank outside of their provided battery (endurat18)... I am getting WAY better performance out of this baby via this VAporflask. They say 14W... I say 21.1 gives me unreal flavour and a welcoming warm vapour. No spitting.

The only thing I have noticed: I cannot for the life of me find out what the coil is made from. I keep finding info on how it is stainless steel 'built' which I am sure refers to the body of the coil itself; I say this because whenever I attempt to head my mod into the temp section it politely declines my request (by politely I mean -it won't go into VT) .. any Ideas on how to find this info out?

BUT

Cubis tank?!
Great concept. Flawless construction.
Coils? they will be the sole reason this thing tanks (no pun intended)
If your using a higher VG mix -move along (I vape my store bought stuff at 70VG/30PG and my own mixes are 85% upwards of VG) The juice port on ANY of their offered coils are LESS than horrible (not more; LESS THAN...thats bad folks) I have had my Cubis all of but 24hours and I have burned through 3 coils.... 3 people. (no I will not pipe down on my VG but many thanks on the suggestion)
I did see that they have set out a RBA option but I haven't seen any changes in the juice ports...I'll grab one and see how the experience is from there I guess...

SO....

it will sit in a drawer until I can find a way to highjack the concept OR they come out with a coil that has something worth sucking on.

Sorry I didn't catch the typos i had to rush to deal with my dog who got back from the vet.

Instead I see a Tron T tank paired with mini volt or pico clone. Using clr coils.

I vape 90% most of the time so I'm glad you posted this. Seals the deal for me.

I do need to decide one. Small
Tank for the top of the mini volt. Honesty the ego mega rates better than the pico clone. I haven't found a tank that takes disposable coils that beats the ego mega and clr coils (yes they're rebuildable but so cheap you can throw them in a bucket when you've used them maybe never bother. They cost less than most other coils)

I'm open to suggestions if anyone thinks there's a truly small tank which takes disposable coils. Otherwise I'll grab the afore typod Tron T probably for $16

@h00ligan Just a FYI: The Tron tanks run off the same coils as the Cubis... Hate to be the bearer of bad news.

Hmm-I've been running 100% VG through my Cubis and getting plenty of vapor. I did have one incident of a dry burnt hit, as reported earlier in this thread, but the coil recovered by the next day and I'm still using it with the same high VG juice.That said, my next coil I will likely try a 50/50 juice to see if the flavor is less muted.

No problem running 80% vg in the .5 ohm coils, and no rubber taste. Priming them properly is key.

Anyone getting a rubbery taste from their Cubis? I blame the white rubber grommet at the base of the coil, sitting in juice all day. I'd like to think the rubber flavour might go away after a break in period, but I expect it will only get worse with time.
No rubbery taste here.

Note 5!!!

    While the Tron coils can be used in other Joytech tank product(s), the Cubis is not one of them.

    I bought a Cubis along with the Cubiod and waited until a "RBA" was available and bought 3 RBA's. Try as I did to get ether a vert or horz coil configuration to produce ANY vapor let alone not spit and gurgle ended up being impossible.

    After giving up on the 'rba' I decided to try the 'clapton' head with fairly similar results. (sigh) Maybe someday I'll have enough patience to build the thing so it works but in the mean time, the Tron tanks with CLR coils work impressively well and I have a bunch of other types of tanks to play with that work very well.

    I think the "Cubis" is leak proof as it will remain on a shelf empty.

    Hey h00l...is the Tron T tank Top-Filling???

    [After using my (kinda' Top-Filling) CartoTanks...and (actually Top-Filling) iClear 30S's and Cubis's...I've decided I'm NEVER going to purchase a Bottom-Filling tank again...]

    As for the COV Mini Volt...I, myself, quit considering it when I found out about the..."no use for 15 minutes => auto OFF => 6 clicks of Fire Button to turn ON"...hassle... :shock:

    ..
    T tank is t top fill just a plain old bottom fill. I agree about he mini volt it's annoying but given its usage it's not a deal Killer for Me at $31 shipped. I finally found Tron t tanks in black. Clearly they're not popular and on their way out. Nobody is carrying them vs Tron s which are everywhere. Had to get from heaven gifts and wouldn't have if the price want reduced by the 20% off first mobile
    Order promotion. I think it was $35 for two of them shipped with that

    Black Tron t on stealth provari looks amazing I wish their silver marched better I'd have gone that route. But the provari will likely be sold anyway a. I've got way too much gear. Time
    To thin the heard.

    Ps. The issue with top fill- as great as it can be - is hat it makes tanks substantially bigger. And I don't want that - most of the time. And half the top fill tanks are a pain in he backside that I've used. So if they're blowing out a tank that's bottom fill where you can literally pour liquid from a dripper bottle into it - I'm on board. Easy bottom fill with any bottle ink using straight from the bottle and reduced size are good for me. Though I have w couple top fill tanks I love - the gems - they're easy to fill Compared to the rotate to reveal two slots tanks

    This can be noted asp with nbase -no flavor-.

    I finally got a Cubis yesterday, possibly just to chime in on this thread and see what all the fuss is about.

    I really do like the tank design, and it may be worth the price just to have something that won't leak in my pocket...however, these coils really are ridiculous. They might be the worst coils I've ever used. Or I just don't remember how bad coils were years ago.

    I've only used the 1.5 to start, and I set the bar pretty low...but it tastes just awful on a really simple liquid. Hopefully they fix these.
