Hey forum new guy here and soon to be vaper!
I am making this post asking for a bit of guidance on how I should go about getting my first build together. Basically I'm looking for something that will give me some decent sized clouds and good flavor. I've looked at a lot of reviews on multiple websites but I'm still unsure of how I should go about this. I've looked at a lot of sub-ohm tanks I personally feel I'd be wise for me to start there with a TC Mod. I'd rather spend the extra money now and get something I'll enjoy for a long time that will work semi worry free rather then spend money on a starter kit and end up upgrading a few months from now. I'll also apologize now for the wall of text. :/
My questions:
1. Tanks/Coils: What tank would you recommend for someone that wants flavor and clouds? Of the ones I've looked at and read up on the ones that have caught my attention most (maybe that's just the hype making them look like amazing tanks) were the Uwell Crown, Innokin iSub Apex or the iSub S, SMOK TFV4, and Sense Herakles Plus. I haven't bought anything yet, I was going to but then I stumbled across the forum thread about the Uwell coils (them being really bad) here. Is there any update on that or any place thats selling good coils for them yet? The Innokin iSub Apex I feel as if the not being able to take the tank completely apart would cause issues, what is your idea on this? I mentioned the iSub S because I believe thats a TC one that comes with the Cortex simply wanted to know if it was any good. The SMOK TFV4 just looks awesome, its got tons of good reviews but I'm just curious if its like the the Uwell as far as coils go. For the Herakles I read some things that people have issues with the juice control causing leakage. All in all how are the coil life spans with any of these while using high VG Fruity flavors?
2. Mods/Batteries: A few of the mods I looked at were the Joyetech Cuboid, Innokin Cool Fire IV PLUS, and Innokin Cortex. For me personally I really liked the reviews on the Cuboid and how it looks I like the design. I was really leaning towards the Cortex the most but I don't want to be stuck with a 80W that maybe wouldn't be able to give enough juice to another tank besides the Apex or the iSub S. I know both Innokins have batteries in the mod already, how often to those crap out? On the topic of batteries this is the thing I found really confusing and frustrating the reviews of people saying battery x is better than battery y and battery z is better than y but not better than x because of this.... :S
3. Juices: I know flavor will be up to me that's personal preference but what I'd like to know is ratios, what ratios are ideal for the items I listed could I run max VG in any of these or would I need to go with a 70/30, 50/50, etc.
4. Site/Shop: Giving what I listed what site would be ideal for me to purchase something that's had some controversy in past months.
If any of these things you have hands on experience with or heck if something I listed is your exact build let me know how it is. I'm ideally looking for something I can blow some decent clouds with and get some good flavor. Sorry for all of the text but in my research I've gotten a bit worried about taking too many chances on too many different things.
Thanks in advance to anyone and everyone that takes the time to look at this!
Happy vaping!
