Hey all, First time poster here on the forums.Quick question im looking for help with.
Right now im using a nautilus mini tank with an eleaf i stick 40wtc setup (not using the temp control though). and this setup is driving me nuts And im looking to upgrade to something a little more nicer powerful.

So ive been looking at this.

TOPTANK Mini

Is this the newest one? At my local vape shops they do sell these mods but there also telling me to just wait 2-3 weeks for the tank itself to go on the market why? I'm not sure. im told these tank use the new rounded coils,better wicking and that there a sub ohm.

What would you guys recommend to do is the new tank thats coming is it the same one as thats in the kit above?

You know, I don't wish to sound harsh, but you are using a well-known low power tank on what is actually a very good little mod. (Even though it's Eleaf )

Why not buy a subtank/toptank and see how you like it. I will work perfectly well on your iStick.

Unless you want to vape at at more than 40w, of course...

Hello and welcome to the forum @op3operator. Glad to have you here!

+1 on what @djsvapour said. A Kanger Subtank Mini would work very well on your mod.

Just a FIY. Your link won't go live until you have 5 posts and the servers update at 25 post the hour.

You could get away with just buying the tank and using it on your iStick. You will notice a nice increase in vapor vs the nautilus, and you won't be throwing down the cash for a new mod.

thanks guys. ya i dont mind the eleaf there cheap in price they take a beating,thats for sure.

So im new to the vaping scene so when you say subtank/toptank what would you suggest?

 

[DaleH1985]

oops guess someone beat me to it

I love the Crown.

So if i bought this off canvape Kangertech TOPTANK Mini SSOCC Pyrex Glass Cartomizer, the same tank as that of TOPBOX Mini Kit.
Would I be making a good purchase from what i currently have?
thanks guys.

The entire outfit is $59.95 here : Kangertech TOPBOX Mini Kit (SUBOX Mini Pro)

It would be a very nice step from the Nautilus. (and you'll have great back up gear). You can get by just buying the tank and using the same mod you now have. You will also need to buy specific coils for this product. It comes with teh rba so you can learn to make your own coils and wicks (easy and cheap).

I love the Crown.

I do too, but it would be handicapped on a 40W mod.
A Subtank Mini might be more appropriate as a step up for the OP.

My mod's a 50 watter Kanger & at 35-38 watts it's still pretty good with the .5 coils, I'm in the process of getting a 120w mod & will get into my .25 coils with that.

 

[subwayaznm]

Aspire Atlantis 2 is a nice Sub Ohm Tank that will deliver good flavor along with Adequate Vapor plus more reliable Replacement Heads. Good at 20 - 35 Watts so your Vape won't be as hot either. approx $27
Wide variety of Replacement Heads also

The .5Ω coil is probably the only one that would work at the lower wattages, like you're using. Still, that's the top of the curve for a 40W iStick.. The .25Ω Kanthal and the .15Ω Nickel come into their own at 50W and up.

 

[suprtrkr]

The Topbox kit is well thought of. A .5Ω coil is about the lowest it will handle. If you think you want more than 40 watts-- that's a lot of power, actually, I am very rarely over 50 watts-- then you'll save some bucks buying them as a kit. If not, try just the tank.

Definitely.
That's why I'm saving my .25's for when I get my new 120w.

Subtank nano is better than the mini - just my opinion. Lots of people prefer them over the mini for flavour, airflow and build quality.

I find 25-30W for 50-60VG and 30-35W for 70VG to 8OVG. I only vape it wide open. I use .5ohm VOCC or SOCC coils. tried the clapton .5's and they are good too.

I love my Nautilus mini but only get a good vape with it at around 40VG or better at 30VG. Maybe try 70PG 30VG liquid in it? I get a better vape on it with cheap Hangsen 80PG 20VG than I do with premium 50/50. I find my sweet spot to be mixing Spacejam Eclipse 50/50 with Hangsen RY4 80PG20VG. That's because I use it as my tobacco flavour vape device for MTL.

They're two different things MTL and sub ohm tanks, but I'm glad I have both as it means I don't get bored.
