my iclears are bottom dual clear and are much warmer vape then the top coil.
the top coils are i would say older models.
there are many different clearomizer types.
i have almost all of them lol.
before buying a bunch of any one style, buy a couple different styles.
what i did was, i had 5 different clearomizers/tanks, loaded the same juice in each tank, vape on one for a few hours and then another.
i was able to determine what i definately didn't like.
top coils were the worst. dry hits if you forget to roll and tumble before vaping.
protanks are in my opinion not beginner friendly.
lost of gurgling or no vapor. you have to keep the tank pretty full for it to work properly. once i rebuild the coil i was able to use them with success. but i don't, won't reccomend a newbie to rebuild.
aspire bdc are horrible, i never got any of those to vape good. they all taste like burnt ashpalt smells.
cartotanks are my favorite for consistant vape. trouble free every time with those.
next favorites are the iclear bottom coils. trouble free every time.
the cartotanks are my fave also because of the look.
but the iclear x.i and iclear 30b are easy to fill on the go and work just as good.
the iclear x.i is glass and the 30b is plastic.
also if you get verified you can check the classifieds for clearomizer/tanks
atleast to check a couple different ones to see what you are going to like.
baditude has some good blogs if you look up his profile page.
he really helped me get going, i wasted over $2,000 before i found my vape bliss.
like i said for me, i settled on the cartomizers, cartotanks, and i clear bdc's. they each have their pros.
like right now i got some new flavors in, so i have boge unpunched cartomizers all filled with different flavors, with different drip tips.
at .95 cents a piece i can fill them a dozen times before tossing.
if i don't like a juice i put the cartomizer in a cup and wait a week and try again.
something you'll learn is a juices taste changes over a few days and weeks.
if i know i love a flavor i load it in a cartotank.
or a iclear bdc, depending on which mod i'm using.
i have tanks dedicated to certain mods based on aesthetics.
the worst mistake i made was buying a bunch of one thing before trying it, usually to save money or get free shipping.
same is true for juices and juice vendors.
whenever i buy a new tank i buy a new coil for it as well incase i burn it or mess it up or whatever.
good luck to you.
remember every one has different vape needs, and what works for one may not work for another.
people have a tendency to like what they are using.
example, if all i ever tried was i clear 16's and protanks, i might say iclear 16's are the best clearo out there.
if i never tried a cartotank i might say they are too much hassle.
what i can say is stay away from single top coils, stay away from aspire bdc, stay away from generic cartotanks. stay away from vivi nova's and ce4
buy small.
make sure your battery is vv or vw or both.
if you have problems with what you buy, come here, ask questions. if it's too difficult to get it working right, try something else.
i've wasted too many hours trying to get protanks to work right consistantly to want to mess with it any more.
you are probably going to waste some money before you get vape bliss and most likely you and your hubby's will be different!
good juice vendors i've found are....

the top three have sample packs.
remember if you don't like a juice, put it away for a week or two longer and try again.
90% of all my juices don't get opened for three weeks.
search for coupon codes, check the vendor sites here on ecf for coupons and sales,
join the mailing lists.
ex. the vapor room has a peanut butter cookie i love, it's on sale this week for $10 for 30 ml.
mister E save 10% with coupon code vapetv, they also include a free sample with your order.
aroma, you can request a free sample with your order.
i usually buy two or three flavors from a new juice vendor before i buy more.
don't expect to like all the juices from one vendor.
holidays means extra savings if you are up to speed here on ecf and on mailing lists.
that's when i try to make bulk purchases.
fathers day there were many buy two bottles get one free.
it's nice to know ahead of time what flavors you like, so don't be afraid to have more than one favorite vendor.
