I agree with Sir...that Kbox needs a Kanger Subtank on it. AND new flat-top batteries, which you've already figured out (good job).
Also, be very careful with what you buy online...especially eBay.
I buy atomizers, mods, wire and other hardware from fasttech.com
juice, batteries and cotton, I buy from my local shop as a matter of principle. ESPECIALLY BATTERIES! Never trust batteries bought online...even from fasttech

Thanks for the fast answer. These seem to have the .5 coils already in them. Do I need to buy cotton? I do not intend to rebuild at all, and how long does one coil typically last. I need a month supply, and just not sure how many if any I need to get.

A coil can last a few days with sweet dark juice or 2 weeks with clear fruit juice. Most it depends on how much juice you vape. Your Subtank came with a build deck that already has a .5 ohm coil in it. You should also have gotten a small baggie of cotton. This is for wicking the rba deck. Look on you tube for a video on building on the rba deck for subtanks. It's really easy and the cheapest way to go. You can also buy the premade coils for the rba deck from Fastteck really cheap (long shipping times). Once the rba gets gunked up /gives bad vape you can "dry burn the cotton out, and clean off the coil and just put more cotton wick in it. If you go the route of building on the rba it's way cheaper in the long run.

If you're going to buy coils for a month, you might as well go ahead and buy the 5 pack most places sell.

The batteries I had planned on getting are from amazon which I am a prime member.

I'm just simply saying that IMO, I prefer the safety of buying batteries locally. Online, you're dealing with a faceless seller, even Amazon.
Online shopping is so tempting because of the money saved, but when it comes to batteries and things that can hurt/kill you...buy local :)
Just sayin'...best of luck to you and vape on!

I agree with @MrDripper Best to buy the batteries local, that way you can be sure of what you are getting, and for the kbox i would proly put in samsung 25r's they are a very trusted batt and arent very expensive, those and Sony VTC4's are the only batts i use.
