I haven't seen any yet, but they'll be coming soon. New release and all. The Protank is a good place to start rebuilding the coils.
Protank coils are quite easy to rebuild, there are a number of tutorials on youtube.com just search "protank rebuild" other than the small size its probably a good place to start with rebuilding to see if it is something you want to do. That is where I started.
I have a cobra genny, and I hate it, is there anything similar but easier that doesn't use an ss wick
The RSST is a great rba for beginners. It's my first and the build is really easy using SS Mesh (I use 400). For that, I use 32 gauge Kanthal.
For my Protank, I use 32 kanthal and 3mm silica wick. One wick through the coil, and I use a few threads for flavor wicks on top.
I use both silica and cotton with 32 gauge Kanthal using a 6/7 wrap. I usually end up with a coil between 1.9 and 2.2 Ohms. After you watch a few videos, this will become easier to understand. There are many choices in coiling, and I find it fun to experiment with different sizes, gauges and wraps. You must have a multimeter, and know how to use it, when recoiling. There are some decent 510 atomizer/cartomizer readers on the market, if you can find one. Get on everyone's mailing list because they sell out fast. As soon as you get the email, buy it, because they'll be gone 20 minutes later. Recoiling your first Protank is the start of a long and wonderful hobby with RBA's. I'm at the extreme start of it, but I've done maybe 50 Kanger coils, Genny and Oddy coils, and just got my Kayfun Monday and will be coiling it this week. It is surprisingly easy from an execution standpoint. It is surprisingly difficult to amass the knowledge and information to account for the many variables. I'm now studying airflow, invested in mini and micro drill bits and jeweler drills. Who knew that vaping would take me into the world of watchmaking and jewelry fabrication? I was a gunsmith for many years in a previous life, so the hands on work has not been hard. But the knowledge, well, that's something else, and endless hours of reading on the RBA and other forums has been required to get as far as I am. I would say I'm a solid 20% up to speed, and lovin' it! So, get started, get hooked, Power up and Vape On!
I tried that...and it fired...however the taste is awful, and no matter how many i build the taste is terrible
Discount Vaper has them. I don't know if he still has stock but I got a few from there a few days ago.
I checked and he has 32 left. http://www.discountvapers.com/glass-tube-replacement-kanger-protank-ii/

try soaking the coils or boiling them for a few minutes and then let them dry completely. then dry burn the coil afterwards. Torching the kanthal and silica prior to building the coil will help as well.
I just bought replacement glass in several colors at Sun-Vapers.com for $2.99 a piece. They also have clear replacement glass. The shipping was about $3.00.
I just checked and they are sold out at Discount Vapers.
Sun Vapers has them right now.

I don't think Kanger ever did a SS tank.
If you want a stainless ProTank - that's the Tatroe. Better base, from what I've heard, too.
It's on my long term, one-of-these-days list.
