Does anyone know where to get the new pre-built vertical coils? I've checked around and can't find them anywhere. I can't believe Kanger would release a new coil in this kit, then not make them available to buy. I like and use the RBA, but I have friends that just want to use the stock coil.


I haven't seen them around yet, I was hoping they would be out by now to stock up. I tend to switch between the RBA and the prebuilt coils. If these new RBA's work as good as they look I may not use the prebuilt anymore though. I always had wicking problems with the old RBA even after I drilled it out it couldn't keep up if I built the coil below .5

The past two weeks have felt like two months. But today, it's finally here. I was expecting to get a white one too. I guess they're still repainting them. :mad:

Got mine in today. Really disappointed, the tank had rust on the inner top cap, after two passes on the ultrasonic and a few attempts of rubbing it with qtips, the cotton stays white, doesn't come out, so definitely looks like embedded rust...

I never had a problem wicking the RBA, but then I don't vape much above 17W on a .7 dual 28g twisted coil. As for the pre-built coils, if they are as good as everyone is saying, I may stop building for every tank.

@hashtag Have you tried Gary Lee's wicking method? It's the only way I wick now. Not sure if it would help you or not, it depends on how you vape.

I attached a picture of it, makes me think it's either crappy stainless or I don't know, what does it look like to you? Doesn't come off no matter what.

Also, there's loads of chipped pain at the outter base near the afc ring, so definitely a dud that passed QA

I read somewhere that the painted metal is a zinc alloy. It's very light.

I use both and love em pretty equally. I am a low watt vaper too, usually not above 20 watts. I'd love to crank it up but am NEVER successful at it for some reason. I've tried duplicating others builds but once I pass 20 watts it all goes down hill. I assume it has to do with my juice at tjis point. I vape all similar juice profiles. Fruity, candy-ish flavors. All darn near clear juices too. Went from 24/18mg to 9mg since the subtank minis and my joyetech egrips... I used carto tanks til I sprung for nautilus style tanks- they were awesome but then the subtank line blew those outta the water... and I lowered my NIC level a lot. I went with 6mg with the order I placed yesterday so we will see... I figure since I'm off with my kids for the summer I'll have my vape in hand more than when I am working, lower NIC will make it so I can chain vape without worrying... (tmi? sorry for getting off subject there)
