I was thinking about the Kangertech subox with kanger subtank mini starter kit. It will be my first rebuildable unit. Please tell me if i'm making the right decisions.

I have a 2 Kanger Mini Subtanks. As well as a couple of Other RTA's/RBA's.

I would Definitely Recommend the Subtank Mini to Anyone. Either a Novice to Rebuilding. Or someone who is Experienced.

I don't have a K-Box Mini, the Mod that comes in the SUBOX Kit. But I have read Hundreds of Good reviews about it.

Own a Kbox w/Subtank Mini AND a SubBox Mini Kit. No issues at all (so far-cross fingers) even with the much dreaded "evil" non-spring Pin...
For a Beginner, pretty good choice IMO.
I'm normally a Mech & RDA Vaper but am now a Fan of the Kanger Sub Rigs as well and for what they are and are supposed to be have no complaints.
Should suit you or anyone in a similar Situation quite well.

Tank is good and easy to build on.
No experience with the k-box in the kit though. I know from what I see posted the fact it doesn't have a spring loaded 510 makes me want to wait before getting it.

That is a Good Point about the Non Spring Loaded 510 Pin.

I read on Phil B's site that Kanger is going to release a Ver. 2 of the K-Box Mini that does have a Spring Loaded 510 Pin.

Might be worth Waiting to see if there is a Release Date set.

There's so many options now. For batteries I would recommend the mvp cause they have a good track record as does the istick 30. They released a 40w tc but i don't know anything about it. The evic vt looks really nice. Then there's the smok, ipv, sigelei and other brands. As for a tank, I prefer the lemo 2 as a rebuildable over everything else. The delta 2 with the rba is a close second. It's setup like a mini lemo and works extremely well.

That's the delta 2 rba. I just got another one in the mail. That's the stock 1ohm coil it comes with I'll be using a twisted 28g 0.6 coil though.

sounds good;
if you are getting them separately, I'd consider something other than the subox, depending on what you already have.

Lol i have nothing. This will be my first purchase ever. hey guys i made the purchase in this website Ecig Avenue - eCig and Vape Starter Kits, Mods, eLiquid, and parts. . They charge me twice! And it didn't even complete the order. They haven't answered my emails or the phone in the whole day. You know what's up with that company?

I haven't ever dealt with this Company.

I'm sure they will get it Straight. But it can Sometimes take a Day or Two. Especially if there is a Major Time Difference between You and Them.

The guy of the store told me i don't need a ohm reader, that i can do it with the mod of the subox kit. Is tha true? Also this wire is good for the subox?

100ft Kanthal 26 Gauge A1 Resistance Wire Roll .403mm, 3.21 Ohms/ft - - Amazon.com
As a good practice, I always recommend having an ohmmeter. If for some reason your mod isn't reading correctly, you'll at least have something to compare to. As far as the wire goes, 26 gauge kanthal is just about perfect for the subtank. It's what I use every time, for rebuilding the occ heads and the rba section.

I don't understand how wire gauge can be different for beginner or advanced. You use the wire, whatever gauge you need, to build your coil. If you want a 0.5ohm coil you should use 24 or 26g, if you want a 2ohm coil you should use 29g. If you want a 1.2 you should use 28g or 26g. It has nothing to do with skill level, just what you want to accomplish with it.
