Probably the best changeable atomizer to hit the marker ever, is the Aspire Nautilus BDC tank. Dual bottom coil, large tank, side air intake that is adjustable. The Nautilus is the tank to own.

Far as re-buildable atomizers go, The Flash-e-Vapor V2 rba, is my favorite tank for the Provari. Easy to build, spectacular Vape, all Stainless Steel. I have both an Authentic one from Germany and the fasttech one from china. Both give an increasable vape and look fantastic on the Provari.

If you can rebuild, Kayfun Lite + looks and performance great on ProVari.
Kanger AeroTank will give you totally different experience. Side adjustable airflow makes a huge difference and really brings out the benefit of bottom coil design. Seal bottom means no more small drops of juice on battery contact. If you like the look of ProTank on your ProVari, AeroTank could be your best bet. Like some suggested, try it out by just getting the base and use it on PT II/III. I have been using it on PT II and made a huge difference.
Nautilus is awesome. Big tank, good dual coil, nice airflow control. However, it is HUGE! I didn't like the look of it on ProVari and it made ProVari very top heavy. It looks better on larger mods like iTaste 134.

For me, stacked dual coil design being used by clearo (Kanger and Nautilus) isn't that good. Don't see much improvement on vapor production nor taste. So, I just use single coil on ProTank.

Forgot to mention Tatroe tanks. These use ProTank heads, but looks incredible. They changed the base design for tighter draw too.

Anyone try the Nautilus yet, I don't really have the coin the get both, but if needed, I'll but them both to help my new found "addiction" lol!!! Help guys, please!!!

no, i just pulled the trigger on the aero because the replacement heads for the nautilus are like 18 bucks a five pack the cheapest i've seen. I know that it is supposed to be nice :vapor: according to pbusardo and other reviewer but for the $ and compatibility with other kanger products aero was my choice.

I'm waiting on vapemail for my Aspire Nautilus ( sad because no mail tomorrow due to MLK day ). I'm using a Tank Airflow Controller right now on my Provari. Tanks I use are Protank 2's, Aspire BDC and Vivi Nova. All work great when using the tank airflow controller. You can but one for about $3.

so those 3 dollar deals work well with a provari and a aspire bdc? I have nothing but trouble with it and was wondering if i could get away with the 3 dollar afc instead of the hippo

Holy crap emus! That pull in the video was incredible! That's what I'm looking for, I pretty much chain vape all day...And can't stand some of the issues with my protank 2, too tight of a draw. Can I get some help finding what I need to try that?

BTW dats not me in da vid; I'm less handsome.

One way:

Avoid hard shorts, quality $10 UD IGO-F, Twisted 30GA kanthal, 3/32"ID coil, 7 or 8 wraps for 1 to 1.2 ohms, decent mod, dual cotton wick, Samsung INR-18650-20R, drill cap air hole 1/8" or so, lung pull, 60 to 100% VG.

That's a drip atty, right? I was looking for more of a tank, but I'm willing to give it a try too.

It is a tank. Tank holds 1ml. You can drip another 0.5 ml for a total of 1.5ml. Great for pocket carry because it fits along side of 10 ml bottle in Altoids tin. Also fits nicely in standard batt case and $1.00 walmart waterproof coleman match tube. I often carry bare in watch pocket after I vape it semi-dry.

The reason I like it is the small chamber makes it very efficient. It is a solid feeling topper that produces silky smooth TH.

I have many, too many, toppers and this lil gal is my favorite for pocket carry and home use. Fast blind fold drip. Still looking for topper who can defeat IGO-F in vapor quality.

It's fine if others don't like it. Maybe it will still be in stock should I want more backups.

Hey guys, I need a little help deciding which tank to drop some coin on. I'm gettin a little tired of having to trim down the silicon insulator on all the heads of my Protank 2 just to get a decent loose draw. I was wanting something for a great vapor cloud that wont look hideous on my Provari 2.5, rebuildable, and reliable. Any suggestions?? I was thinking maybe the Aspire Nautilus or the Kanger Aero tank, as dual coil seems to be what I'm looking for. Any input on this would be greatly appreciated!!!

If you look down at the bottom of the protank, on the threads you will see 3 holes. THAT is where the air really has to get into the tank IF it is screwed into a 510 thread connection.

You can drill those holes open with a 1/16 in bit.

Perhaps more significantly, if you get a miniprotank, the base will fit on the protank; that means you don't depend on those three holes anymore.

A Kayfun will fit the bill. Get one of those pro rings so it wont look funny on your 2.5. No tank I've vaped on is better in performance and its rebuildable. Your coil or coils will last for a couple months. Just put new cotton in the coil e very few days as needed.

I wanted a kayfun until I discovered it does not take standard driptips/mouthpieces. So I ordered a fogger instead.
