Some ways away from koala forests
Can we just go back to talking about the gear instead of one single somewhat silly online graphic which happens to feature zombies and fake guns and blood.

Yeah guns are silly (*), but with the whole colour/contrast theme Kanger are obviously after certain quirky effect and apart from the bloody zombie guns the effect/design seems to be working for them.

I have some black gear and that matte black tank... WANT. The mod looks to be designed based on the users' wishes and moans about the mini mods that came before it. Seems like they've done their research. I'd personally prefer fully unicolour/monochrome black, white and SS versions, but that's just my OCD alter ego nitpicking. And there will be nice body-fitting silicone suits available for them soon enough anyway.


(*) I haven't owned or used a gun since my teenage years, but I'm equally comfortable without as I'm around them. In my neck of woods the local companies would never even consider using them as props, but the people are generally mature enough to understand their make-believe entertainment value. I can also understand how in some other cultures where the prevalence of guns is an actual everyday problem people might also see the online ad as a more concrete problem. Maybe the answer is tolerance for the occasional advertising campaign silliness when it's quite obvious that no real life criminal behaviour is being promoted.

The Walking Dead is insanely popular, all over the world. Maybe they just want publicity, which is what all advertisers want.

I'm sure Kanger will get Lots of Publicity over this Ad Campaign. Maybe more than they Want.

I wonder how people in someplace like Waco Texas feel about an ad with someone in a Mask holding a Gun?

did anyone buy it , which color did you pick

@miro011, no one answered your question, so I will. From the time I got the newsletter email and finished reading the specs, (~10 minutes) I ordered the black one from the Kanger site. I had to have one. I started vaping with Kanger Pro and a 650mAh FV mod and have progress through each new model as they came out. Kanger has not let me down yet. Kanger hit a home run with the Subox. This latest offering is absolutely beautiful. I'm confident it's performance will exceed my expectations.

Thx. Not in stock and wrong blue. I'm always excited to see stuff come in color. I did find it at Sweet Vapes.
I guess I just see these Images Differently than some.

Because I work with HR Managers / Lower Level Policy Makers. And it is a constantly Uphill Battle to promote that e-Cigarettes is something an Adult does for HRT.

I think the ad was developed for Tokyo. Different culture.

I'm planning on getting a derringer. Tiny little chamber, close off the airflow. Should be a flavor machine. In regards to the Atlantis and arctic, I don't like their designs as much as the Kanger Subtanks and wasn't as satisfied with the vapor. Maybe I just have to take some time to fiddle with em, but I really would prefer not to have to learn the ins and outs of more tanks lol.
Warning! Opinion alert! This is not going to be true for everyone. But, it is for me!

You see, that's what I'm saying, the blow big clouds, but it's just not flavorful. It's just not satisfying. To me anyways. I love my SubTank. The way I build it, is perfect for me. It is by far, bar none, the best tank on the market for flavor, RTA's included. I have an authentic KayFun v4, and I still find myself reaching for the Kanger everytime I leave the house.

I'm going to try running it at lower wattage and reduced airflow. maybe building from .8 to 1.5 ohms. It's a gamble, but that small chamber has me thinking it'll work lol.

Cool I really want one, can't wait to hear people impressions here. Glad I stumbled on these forums!
Good rule of thumb, never be the first guy on the block to own anything. if you buy it once it's available stateside rather than a pre-order you should be good.

Guns and Blood?

I think they are just trying to appeal to American market, from a foreign pov this is probably how they see us, latest trends fads and all.

I read the ad was developed for the Japanese market (Grumpy old something blog?) but it looks like Korean writing??? Idk except the ad probably wasn't for the US market. We really aren't the only market on earth. I know in tourism, vastly different ads were developed for different areas and many of them would never pass the censors in the US. Maybe you've seen the french tv ad reels on Youtube?

Anyway, I did find a preorder from a US vendor that appears to me to check out. $79.95 plus a 10% discount and free shipping. The store also warrenties for 6 months. Expected arrival is in early June. Posted in Steals and Deals too. Code: WELCOME10 SUBOX Mini Starter Kit by Kanger (PREORDER) - Vapor Puffs

Looks like there will be a subox nano in pink and purple eventually.


And Innokin isn't going to be left behind with their CoolFire4

I have no idea what they are planning.

It's a great time to be a vaper.
