Welcome to ECF, that is a pretty impressive lineup for 3 1/2 months. I have a V2 Vamo and a sigelei #8 and Vision Spinnner, among others.
I just got Igo W a couple of weeks ago, also have the Protank and Iclear 30 along with the AGA T+, and about ten other things. Odd how much of our equipment is similar.

Not sure if you can access it yet, but ehuman has a blog on the AGA T+, it is what I used when I first got mine. I post the link, and you can give it a try. http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...ly-opportunities-hone-your-skills-part-1.html This is a two part blog.

Also a blog from Baditude with many links, http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...-tips-vapors-looking-try-their-first-rba.html

Keep trying and you'll have success, one the above blogs may have something you missed, if not you're not out anything by checking them out.

Awesome! The protank is a great vape for the price, as long as you like a little bit more draw than usual. The trick with rebuildables is 1) Oxidizing your SS mesh very well, so you don't have shorts and/or hot spots
2) Get all the hot spots out of your coil before you fill it up. A dental pick is a great way to move the hot-spot areas of the coil around, which usually fixes the problem.
3) If your coils are blowing out very quickly, make sure you're using the right gauge wire for the number of turns. If there's not enough resistance in your coil, it'll pop just from the sheer amount of current flowing through it.

Congrats on the three and a half months off the smokes! Best of luck with your new obsession.

Welcome to the forum!! Sounds like you have some good equipment already and are pretty well set up. Is DIYing next?

Already playing a little with DIY too. Made three flavors of nicotine free 50/50 but decided I missed the nicotine so I got some 6mg flavors and I cut them with my zeros. .. for a 2-3 mg mix.
So far flavor concentrates and PG/VG mix from MtBakerVapor. Would love input on other vendors with flavors...
