Hello, I could really use some recommendation on what to buy. I need a device that would last me a long time. I want that it would be possible to mouth hit it when I'm in my dorm room, because roommates hated the smell and fog when I used my atlantis(also fire detector would sometime beep), but also I want to be able to blow clouds when Im back at home. rda/rba section would also be nice, but optional. Money is not a problem for a worthy device, but I would preffer cheaper products.
 
Device meaning mod, right? I would recommend the Hana box mod. My DNA 30 lasted me roughly a year until I dropped it outside of my truck (with my Squape on top, destroying the 510 connections) and then I got the Hana V4d. Great battery life, and its pretty rugged since I always drop this around my desk also.

As for an atty I have been leaning towards the KF 3.1. I have an authentic one with some quartz glass, always ends up being my go to atty. Good for mouth hits, sucks for lung hits.

I am actually trying to find another RBA like it as I hated the KayFun 4 (it works well, I just have issues with the juice control ring getting stuck) but yea..

The Kanger Subox mini kit is a solid choice. Compact and fires up to 50w, should provide adequate power. It also comes with the Subtank mini which is a nice tank. It holds up to 4.5ml, has replaceable coils and also an rba section. It comes with 1 each 0.5ohm and 1.2ohm coils and a couple pre-made 0.5ohm coils for the rba. You can sub-ohm and get decent clouds with the 0.5 coils or use the 1.2 for a cooler vape/smaller clouds but still retain flavor. It has removable batteries, but you can recharge with usb through the device. I have and really like it alot. Good quality, looks good, feels good, easy to use, inexpensive and good all around kit.

I'm a big fan of the Sigelei 150W (I have the one that doesn't have TC, but the TC one looks about the same). Sigelei in general seems to be pretty on-point with the quality of their products, my 150 has withstood quite a bit of jostling after a full year of use.

For atomizers, I vote for RDA's in general, but if you have to watch your cloudage you might wanna look into something like the SubTank. It has an RBA section, meaning you can build your own coils, but it also comes with pre-built coils at both .5 ohms and 1 (or 1.2?) ohms. While you can still chuck clouds even with a 1+ ohm coil, it's pretty easy to restrict the airflow for mouth-to-lung hits. Subsequently, cloud production goes waaay down with the airflow tightened.

There are actually a lot of really good tanks on the market these days that offer rebuildable sections as well as pre-built heads. I'd definitely look in that direction, because it gives you the ability to build your own coils to save money, or if you simply decide you don't like the pre-built stock ones.

Provapes new radius might be a good choice. Wee clouds in the dorm but up to a true 40 watts elsewhere, so it could handle a nautilus through to a subtank mini or dripper. And the company has the best repair/reliabilty record of any mod out there.

Early hands on have been very good, might take a couple of weeks to ship since they are brand new.

I really like my eVic VTC Mini and Sub Tank Mini combo. The STm can do both M2L and straight lung hits, while it may not be the best at either individually, it is very capable of doing both. Personally, I wouldn't consider the KBox Mini (Subox mod), as it is very limited in features and doesn't have a spring loaded pin, causing issues when used with other atty's.

Evic vtc mini looks pretty good, but subtank mini seem to not have changeable driptips and it's almost imposible to mouth hit with wide driptip, hana also looks good but its 150$ thats a little expensive. Also what are your thoughts on istick 40w tc(or 60w, both look nice), Aspire triton and gs tanks? Or maybe I should get two tanks, like nautilus for dorm and subtank for elsewhere?

Erm, nope. The drip tip on Subtanks is most definitely replaceable:
