Are the RBAs in the STM the "Plus" version (large side holes) or like their photo, which shows the original version? The Plus version uses a screw to hold the chimney on.
Thanks

Is not like the STM plus kit I got.
Mine came with spare black Oring set. Not another orange/red one.
And blue handled screwdriver.

If anyone likes the STM and building on the rba and want to buy spare RBA or two for the STM; I bought two spares at Fasttech for my sister's STM.
I bought several V2 spare RBA's from FT. Watch out on the clone bases though. Got some and all but one the 510 was too short to work.
also got some of their acrylic dome caps.
They are ok but the airflow is a bit tighter due to the increased wall thickness on the chimney tube. This is inevitable with acrylic or glass tops, should have thought of that... But they are usable and durable for outside or working on car, etc.
Back in my days of using the ST Nano RBAs were not available. I was unaware Kanger made a RBA for the nano.
I got one of those when i bought THR spare RBAs.
The clone base worked fine in her case but had a slight leaking issue but its a backup so what is IT leaks a drop or two in 48 hours. Wipe it down in tge morning and you're good till the following morning
Watch out for the FT bell caps for the STM. The diameter of the tube that meets the RBA or coil head is a little too large.
My sister put one on the STM with RBA. When she unscrewed tge bell cap tge top of the RBA came off attached to the bell cap
She called me freaking out. I told her not to worry just add ejuice to the RBA lid and put the base back on. That worked so tge nexf time i was over i got it out with needle nose pliers and she put the bell cap in the garbage
I got SKU 14531 bellcaps they are fine. Yep when both the RBA and the bellcap are dry they can stick a bit but after a bit of juice is in there they are fine.
No leaky with the RBA's or bases or bellcaps so far. I got stainless bases. I steer clear of the colored ones.
I did go on a bit of a buying spree just in case but got all stuff I know and love save for two STM from Vapehappy and three Vaporflask Lites. I have probably 7-8 Taifuns already. Bought some extra tanks for those. If worse comes to worse I have all my old Protanks and some new ones too. Lots and lots of coils and parts for those. I will built those coils before I go back cigs.
Only juice I am going to order in large quantities is Ahlusion Lemon Cream. Maybe 240mls. Already had maybe 50 TFA flavorings (in glass) threw out all the flavorings in plastic. 1 Liter of nic still waiting to be transferred to the blue bottles I bought.
I consider myself prepared as much as I am willing to go. If nothing happens I will still use all of this. If we get cut off it might be the thing that makes me move forward and do DIY and stop wasting money on juice

thanks. wouldn't you know the red version of that is REALLY red. I sort of wanted the pinkish color that is always called red (in China) they have it but only in the 39mm instead of the 39.2 that you recommend. Do you think that makes a difference? I hate to buy something unless someone else says it works
I have no idea. I expected the bases to work...thanks. wouldn't you know the red version of that is REALLY red.

Absolutely!
Stockpile what you really need
If the FDA Monster is stopped you will use it
If you stop vaping you have items other vapers would gladly buy from you.
Its hard to loose by being prepared.
You need to continue looking into Nicotine Suppliers. Most Retail Nicotine IS from China as it is the largest supplier in the world of Processed Nicotine.
USA has been slow in advancing Producers of Pharmaceutical Grade Nicotine - mostly supplying the Pharma industry.
Chemnovatic Nicotine - Poland Based - is also widely sold in the USA.
So your USA Nicotine purchases are likely off shore produced anyway.

The FT ones are third party, still no Kanger equivalent. They are about the size of the coil heads and may be tight for building, but have overall good reviews. I figure I can work with them and drill out the sides if necessary, but I use 2/3 PG liquid so they may not need that for my application.

I may be in a small minority that find the Nanos very interesting as their smaller diameter works well on the ProVari slant cap models which are my favorite. I'm a low wattage vaper, but if push comes to shove I still want the subohm option for at least occasional use on my mechs instead of dripping. I am already likely in a very small minority that enjoys the Vision Nova top coil tanks which I use all day lol!
