Looking for a quik answer, I'm new dont mind me...

[MagicJosh]

So I just quit smoking butts a little over 2 weeks ago. Started with a 20 watt istick and nautilus mini, Hate the mini. Gets clogged up with black crap and tasted like crap the 4 th day i used It. So i just bought a 50 watt iStick with a Kanger mini subtank and am learning how to rebuild the occ coils and trying to build the nautilus ones too. So far so good. Need to save money. Anyway's. So i noticed the kanger subtank mini and the Aspire nautilus mini have different drip tips. Size wise. Could someone tell me the sizes of each of the drip tips. I can't seem to find anything but the number 510. I know that one is...but which one is 510 size, and which isn't. Also what is the size of the other one? Thank you and, sorry if I posted this in the wrong place.. I can only post here so far.

Kanger Subtank mini drip tip size?
&

Pretty good question. Both are supposedly 510 and yeah, they are both different sizes. If you buy drip tips, they will all have a small variation in size. Just poor QA./QC I guess. I run into this problem on a regular basis and have several tips I can't use. They will use different size O-rings too and sometimes you can swap them and get a tip to work.

I can't help with the drip tip question but 510 is the thread sizing for your atomizer to battery connection

 

[MagicJosh]

Thanks anyways... I wanted to get a couple new drip tips but scared to get the wrong size.

Yeah, they are all basically a "510" size nowadays, some are tight some loose.
Some will fit better than others on diff. devices. Some are long, some are short.

They're cheap.

The most important difference for me is "bore" size. Wide bore = more airflow= more vapour. YMMV.

Cheers.

If the tip is tight and won't fit in the device I wanna use it on I'll take a fine sandpaper to it.
If the tip is too loose? I dunno, try a little teflon tape maybe? Cheers.

you can also put a wrap or two of dental floss around the bottom of a loose drip tip.

to the OP, Most drip tips are 510 these days. There are a few things that are different though. Both the atlantis and the nautilus should be compatible with 510 drip tips.

This about hits the nail on the head.

I go to a local shop and try putting the drip tip in first. They are usually pretty cool about try before you buy.

1: coils tend to gunk up after a few days of heavy vaping especially on dark or complex juices.

2: if you have the subtank mini, you should be able to get a pack of rebuildable heads (rba heads) for it instead of trying to rebuild the replaceable "occ" coil heads; I don't have one so can't say from experience, but for some reason I don't yet understand, a lot of people seem to rebuild the occ heads instead of just using the rba heads which are actually supposed to be designed for easier and more proper building.

3: you don't need to recoil every few days, just take out the old wick, dryburn to clean the coil, then rewick. see youtube.

4: the drip tips are the same size; it's 'just' a drip tip so the manufacturing tolerance is just a bit high; just lube it with a dap of eliquid and press in; they get looser with use.

When you get the Subtank mini, it comes with a 1.2 ohm coil, a 0.5 ohm coil, and a RBA.

you can order a 5pack from fasttech

I am not sure if there is a relevant difference between the head that goes in the mini compared to the full subtank; if they are not compatible that would be a real big doodoo on Kanger's part. But I have read that the rba heads that came out with the mini were better designed than the first ones that came out with the subtank.

woohoo! Congrats!!
I am stunned that not others chiming in to say good job. I hope it works for ya, and soon enough you'll be posting
like...one year free from analogs!
keep up the Vape!
I like to second the notion of droping in on a B&M shop (Brick and mortar retailer in your area).
Agreed, you'll likely get pretty good service and helpful folks willing to let you plug n play with the gear they display.
If not at first...dont be shy, whip out your gear and ask em!..."is it OK if i try to see if this fits?"
Cheers.
btw sure you'll get great bangs for the buck online shopping; I still advocate building
relationships with local vendors- just lots of reasons- regardless of the size of the community
(Boston's a big place).
let us all know how you're doing.
No question is ignored here, you'll find the support you need in ecf.

510 is the threading between your battery and atomizer/ cartomizer. MOST drip tips are compatible though. The best advice I can give is to go to your local vape shop, bring your rig, and just ask to see if it fits.

 

[Debadoo]

Absolutely correct Ipster!! I'm usually pretty good at that, but totally flubbed it this time.

Wahoooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!! Congrats MajicJosh!!!!! that really is fantastic that you were able to quit!!!
