I consider all 'pre-orders/coming soon' vaporware after trying to by a kbox mini only (ie not the kit)... didn't happen.

How many more of those things do you think they would sell if they would just drop the subtank and sell it solo? I've wanted one for a long time, but I'm not going to pay for an atty that I hate. :D

When HG gets them in I'll be buying the kit and selling the STank. I would guess they will sell them separately - they attempted but stock went quickly - I had one on pre-order, it never came in - that's how I got a vtc mini :)

"teflon coating smooth feeling"
Do other mods use teflon coating? I hadn't thought about that. Teflon is dangerously toxic to pet birds.

More than a few - but no notable itty bittys as far as I know.... and many drip tips have a Teflon coating.

Why the hatred for subtanks? :blink:

Hi Terry! In my case, I've had three that leaked. Rebuilds, OCC's, different wicking set ups, didn't matter. Worked for a few weeks then not after that. The leaking is the 'cracks'/spaces above and below the AFC. Not certain what is the case with Oregon Linda....

I know YOU are the real Mk Koy, Ms. Kat, and I remember that your lil ittie bittie didn't qualify for the <$1C, so authentic. I pointed the NEW member to the lak of authenticity. :) I knew it was Katdarling Pre-approved ;)

Too many mods?! :eek: Blashemer?! Simply an abundance of solutions! :)

Are you talking about kanger subtanks or other subtanks or just subtanks in general?

Hey Kat. I just found this thread. Great job. I've never heard of most of these tiny mods though. I don't get out much lately. :(

Mainly Kangers - mini, black mini (subox), nano (subox). Other Kangers fine - Aerotank, eMow.... I've also had problems with the Kfun4 but not with the Lemos 1 and 2. But I'm no longer rebuilding. And I don't sub-ohm vape.

Glad you found us, sweetie. And do not worry if you've not heard of most of these. They'll be 17 new ones released by the time I finish this post. :eek:

That's disheartening. I love Kanger mini subtanks but I haven't had any leaking. I get lots of dry hits when rebuilding the premades but that's my fault. I just haven't gotten the hang of wicking them yet. The Kanger Aerotanks and emow's I have tried with no leaking. Couldn't the leaking be caused by the orings in the Kanger mini's?

An update on the Defender 50W.... I did have some of the reported 'phantom no-fires' on the one I got from VaporBeast - it got worse... I filled out a ticket to return and a phone call - Gunnar there, sent me a ship free label. I asked them to try out the return before sending a new one. Don't know if they did but the one I got and have been vaping since yesterday is fine. No issues. I like it. I'll update if anything develops but my guess is, this one will be good to go.

The handling by VaporBeast encourages me for further purchases. They fully understood the problem - which was nice :- ) and handled accordingly. Their 'return policy' online says customer pays for return but they sent the label/pdf so that's a plus. Free ship on the new one too. As, imo, it should be.

I didn't see the IPV D2 on your list or did I miss an UPDATE? Or maybe it will be in the 17 new ones. ;)

As for having too many mods...not possible. :D

TMC, that was my first thoughts and I put new orings on all and another set on the black mini - just in case - and changed glass as well. It's obvious where the leaks are - basically 'below' the orings - internally in that area below the coil where the AFC is - in the movable part of the AFC. I've put more wicking on rebuilds, less wicking on rebuilds - stuffed the OCC (as in Phil's video) with more cotton... closed off the air in refilling as with the Kfuns... although that shouldn't be as necessary as with the Kfuns (and Lemo's btw :- ) I'm running Eleaf GS Air M and Tanks (and two eMows) on 7 mods :facepalm: without problems at this point. It's just that the black ST looks great on the kbox mini :grr:

Well I guess you've tried everything that can be done. Hopefully it's just a bad subtank and I hope I don't run into that problem because I love them.
