Subox and Kbox

[forestgrubs]

Hi guys i'm pretty new to vaping. Planning to get myself a starter pack. Can someone please explain to me whats the difference between a subox and kbox? I know they both come from Kangertech. And a subtank mini is the way to go with them. But i dont really know much else.. Maybe help me with some pointers? Thanks in advance!

the two main differences is the sub box is a 50 watt device the kbox is a 70 watt device, and the kbox has temp control functionality whereas the sub box does not. Temp control requires special coils but it reduces the likelihood of a burnt hit....or a vape that has been taken once the juice has dried up on the cotton.

oooo okie thanks.. So do i have to DIY the coils myself if im using a subtank mini?

If you want they sell prebuilt coils but the kit comes with an rba( rebuildable atomizer) for you to build your own coils if you so choose. Its cheaper in the long run That's for sure

Actually there is much more info needed to accurately answer this question, and unfortunately Kanger Tech has not made things any easier by calling almost everything thing a Kbox.

Here is a list of the Kanger products that include some version of a Kbox in order of release date:

2015-Original Kbox - 40w mod
2015-Subox Mini Starter kit - includes 50w Kbox Mini and Subtank Mini

2015-Kbox Mini Platinum - 60w Kbox Mini with TC in stainless steel
2015-Kbox Mini - Kbox mini from the Subox mini starter kit available seperately
2016-Topbox nano starter kit - includes 60w Kbox Nano with TC and new Top fill Toptank Nano
2016-Kbox 70 - 70w mod with TC and built in Battery

I think that everything above is correct.

Phil Busardo was making the same basic complaint with Kanger in his review of the Kbox Mini Platinum. Their mod product line has little distinction between very different products because of the naming convention they're using.

It's like they're pumping out mods quicker than they can think of names for them!

Looks right. Also, you can get the "kbox mini", 50w, in black or white, without any kind of tank -- it's really the same mod as the "subox mini" but since there's no tank, no reason to call it "sub" anything -- I certainly don't sub-ohm with my RDA.

Thanks for the reminder of this. I actually purchased the standalone Kbox mini from Vapor Beast, but I had forgotten. It is added above.

I got one of those too -- I was just waiting for those to be available without any of those tanks, and was thrilled to find it not only available, but so inexpensive! It's really a very decent mod, much nicer than the iStick30 it replaced, which cost about $10 more and lasted only 7 months.

The "subox" is the kit with a kbox in it. The actual device isn't called a subox. That being said, I got a subox mini kit and am very pleased with it. The mini kit comes with a rba for the subtank, the nano kit doesn't.
