I'm only going through 8-12 ml a day and I pay around 20 dollars as well for coils. if I go through more juice I'm not too worried about it. Maybe I'll look at the mini tfv4 thanks for the info :)
You will like the tank and the coils are awesome. I prefer the Mini as it looks great on most of my devices at 22 mm and comes with the Clapton RBA.... plus most of the coils can be cranked up to 100 watts if you want.:evil:

Nice!! Does the mini run the same coils ? RBA is rebuildable and for now I'm just going to stick to pre made coils as I've still got lots to learn yet haha!!
Yes the Mini runs the same coils as the Full Size, but the Nano and the Micro do not. At least you will have the RBA to practice building on when you are ready. Baby Steps;)

Just looked it up I see the mini is 3.5. As they say might as well go big or go home!! I'm gonna have to order this tank I'm sold lol!
Yes the Mini is plenty big and I like that it is a full kit for same price as the Full size tank. The Mini also corrected some problems that the Full size had, and comes with spare glass and O rings and coils that the full size does not come with. It is not that much smaller than the full size and fits better on most devices since it is 22 mm and like you said 3.5 ml:)

Welp, got my RX200 in black and red. The red paint they use on the battery door and front panel looks great.. too bad there's a couple tiny chips in mine. I don't really care about that, but there's some looseness to the 510 threads that I really don't like. :unsure:

When I screw on a tank all the way, bottomed out on the device, there's still a bit of wiggle to one side, and front to back. It's got less precise threads than my Topbox Mini, which I definitely did not expect. This "wiggle room" doesn't seem to affect function, (at this time), but it's a bummer on a device that's otherwise so well put together. Then, I Google it and find out it's a "well-known issue", and "not covered under factory warranty"... it's kind of irresponsible of all the big youtube vape reviewers to never once mention this, imo.

I saw some reviews about the 510 pin and another ECF member mentioned it as well. He uses heat sinks from fast tech on his. Basically some tanks and RDAs have a longer 510 pin than others and the 510 connection on the RX200 is a little shallow. My TFV4s and My 13 heavens RDA and my Freakshow Mini RDA fit perfect. See if the 510 pin on your tank is adjustable, if not you may want to add a heat sink. Kepler Finned Heat Sink for RDAs

I don't know if either the Toptank Mini or the Phoenix tank have long pins, (doesn't seem like it), but they both wiggle when installed, and neither is adjustable.

ETA: I compared the 510 connection of the Topbox Mini to the RX200, and you're right, the Wismec's is much shallower, (~1/2 the depth of the Kanger). I think the threads are probably fine, but there's not enough of em in the RX200 to stabilize some tanks completely.

Thanks for the suggestion on the heat sink. I might get one to use with certain tanks, or just live with the wiggle those have.
