New Tank Advice

[rhysowen9]

So I'm looking for an upgrade.
Currently I'm using a Kangertech Subtank Mini on prebuilt 0.5ohm coils.

I have a few issues, coil taste and flavour muting being the biggest.

Also, now that I have started making my own eliquid, I'd like to start coil building.

I want a good tank which I can build my own coils for and benefit from good flavour. I don't know how good other brands out there really are and am after your expertise!

Thanks

I really like the Corolla RTA. Easy to build and great flavor.

you could upgrade to the kanger pro tank 4, it uses the same prebuilts as the sub, and has a nice little velocity dual coil rba to learn to build on.

One path forward would be to learn about coils with your Subtank Mini. It's the route I took because it was one less variable in the equation.
Once I became proficient at building I learned a few things about that tank and my preferences; I liked the tank at .5ohm, but I loved that tank at 1.4ohm and the watts dialed down to 8.
If I had jumped on a new tank and simultaneously tried to learn to build a decent coil I think I may have given up in disgust.

Aren't Kanger known for flavour muting?

 

[sawlight]

First off, how do you like to vape, mouth to lung or lung hits?

 

[rhysowen9]

Maximum airflow for Lung hits

Then look at the TFV4, as suggested. I have one, when it works, it's great! I have a problem wicking it right, but it's a decent price now, and tons of airflow!
You can buy factory coils to use while you work out how to rebuild it.

My advice is def get an rta if you want to build your own coils. The serpent mini is a great single coil flavor tank. Another great option is the goblin v3. It has both a single coil and dual coil deck (options are always nice).

I'm a MTL vapor, so take this as just an idea. Get a KFL monster base from FT for $3.73, a barrel for $1.78, and a flat top bell cap, five for $5.85. The air flow on the base is non adjustable, but it looks huge to me, and there are two of them. Cheap s/u, and you can get replacement parts. Might be worth a try for you. I use these, except I use a KFL lite base for the MTL and it works very well.

I don't have an issue with muted flavour, you're already using kangers, which is why I suggested it since it uses the same coils you already are using... as for airflow... it has airflow at base like on the subtank and driptip.

The reviews are mixed; not really a big surprise considering taste and intensity are subjective.

My point was that learning to build coils on a set-up one is already familiar with eliminates the variable of a different tank. If you buy a WhizBang 3 and begin to build coils, which is the factor contributing to the different taste and performance you perceive: the new coil, the new tank, the new airflow, or the new form factor?

You won't know.

Doesn't the subtank mini come with an rba?
As for muted flavour, I like the performance of the subtank mini with rba. The prebuilt coils do mute the flavour a bit, like any other prebuilt coil.

 

[Mice Elf]

Yes, both the kit and the tank (if purchased separately) come with an RBA.

Ahh ha , when i switched to the Subtank mini i came to the realization that my DIY mixes were even worse than i had originally thought .

If i am vaping my own DIY stuff i prefer toppers that DO NOT provide realistic flavor .

A favorite RTA is the Griffin..

seen here with a clapton build..
Another tank I'm really liking is the Sense RTA-2... it has bigger juice channels than the Griff and same easy to build velocity style deck..

I go back to the Subtank Mini all the time for great flavor , forget about factory built coils , learn to use the RBA it's as simple as it gets .

 

[plandun]

Griffin 25 plus, huge velocity style deck and so easy to wick. A great tank for flavour and clouds. Huge airflow. Got my first griffin 25 and never went back and now the griffin 25 plus is even better than it's predecessor. Got mine for $32.95 canadian off of the canvape website but imagine they can be bought cheaper states side. Good luck with finding your new tank

Yeah I have the Griffin and like it.

But I like this Sense
RTA -2 deck a little better (25mm)..note the Huge Juice Channels, bigger airholes under the coils and the big adjustable juice ports...It came with a true 6ml tank, wide open airflow and delrin drip tip..

This is it on my well used IPV4..
Again notice that wide juice channel slots that's fully adjustable, as good as my Griff is, the RTA-2 is a better performer, least it is for me..
