iStick30+Kanger Toptank Mini (1.2ohm)+Black Note Prelude 50/50 12mg

I couldn't whizz fast enough through the manuals that came with my gear…I didn't even bother to check the authenticity codes.

Black Note Prelude is a great way to start off…quality juice no doubt.

I primed the coil from the top and the sides with a drop or two….filled up that tank from the top with no incidents and let it lie for about 5-10 minutes to soak in nicely. I must say the threads on this tank are not smooth as I'd like…plus the bottom turns are tricky ... I initially found all I was doing was opening the airholes...the top was a bit stiff too….Kanger say you have to be careful as you can break the glass if you don't grip the right parts while turning. Just glad I didn't get any of the much reported leaking…not even a smidge.

istick read 1.2 coil as 1.9ohms…after firing once or twice it settled down at 1.4ohms where it has stayed ever since. Set it at 12.6 W on 4.2V and gave it a go. 12.6 is the reading I got on steam engine….not sure how far I can push these coils….Kanger says up to 25W…lol…but I don't want to fry these coils so soon….making coils last at least 2-3 weeks is my mission.

I initially got a crazy throat hit but that was because I had the air hole open halfway….dialled it down to a couple of mm and it's good now.

Initial Thoughts:

• This could very easily replace the analogs for me…feeling is almost exactly the same…without the rank burnt smell and unpleasantness. Guess the Prelude is to be thanked for a large part.

• I have a long way to go to learn the MTL draw style but it's improving with every try.

• I need to figure out the ideal combo of PG/VG and Nic levels that will work for me in future.
Thinking 12 mg and 70VG…hope this won't gum up my tanks…since my could range from 1.2 to 1.8

Well, that's all folks…thanks for all the INVALUABLE advice and opinions here.
