hi there the kanger subtank mini is an RTA ( rebuildable tank atty) it comes with occ coils which are factory built and wicked and it also comes with a RBA ( rebuildable deck section )

in the box you get a couple of coils to use in the RBA deck one is already mounted on the deck but you need to wick it yourself

if you get genuine kanger stm there are lots of spares in the box

o-rings , couple of coils for rba , 2 x occ coils 0.5 and 1.2 ohm , small blue screwdriver , spare screws, spare tank glass, cotton pad for wicks , and the rba deck.

hope this helps

Thanks and not anymore. I sold it and the subtank mini recently. I use stuff then sell it so I can get new stuff to review haha. I rarely keep devices longer than a couple months.

I usually give away my old stuff to people I know that will actually use it to stop smoking. How did you like the istick 50w?
I also have the istick mini and I love it but it was time for more power I already know who is getting it once I get my 50w. Currently I have to charge the mini at least twice a day, using an aerotank at max power and it's just not quite enough

I have three subtank mini's and they are great. The OCC .5 ohm head I was able to get 20+ tanks usage from it. If yours come with the RBA deck that has holes in the chamber then you can run max VG in it. 28ga Kanthal coil will vape easily at 20 watts all day long. 24ga kanthal and it will vape at 40 watts. If the RBA deck is the older version without the holes then it doesnt like any more than 70/30 VG/PG juice. All three of mine I drilled holes in and used a dremel to deepen the juice slot on the RBA. I also picked up 5 of the newer style RBA decks off of Ebay.

Well I really only ever used 50/50 juice I prefer space jam pluto but all I have on hand is 12mg I was thinking about going to mad vapes when I get it and grabbing some 3mg and letting them help me wick the rba for the first time the one guy that works there is pretty cool and very knowledgeable also I'd rather not have to buy more juice bc I have over 200ml of 12mg but iv read anything over 6mg is really harsh I may just try out the 1.2 ohm occ with my 12mg and see how it works
If I like the stm vape I'm planning to order at least 2 more. I just noticed that I also ordered 2 1.5ohm occ coils for the subtank as well I should probably just toss em right 1.5ohm isn't really going to do much more than the aerotank right?

Dont toss the 1.5 ohm coils, use them. If I remember right, you can go higher wattage with them. I never used them myself for I dont mind building on the RBA, which is one of the easiest RBA's to build on. On the FB Kanger Subtank Users group they had a decent video the other day on how to wick the RBA deck. Check it out.

Yeah I watched the rip trippers video for building and wicking it seems simple enough.

The main thing I got was to make sure that the juice channels are clear to wick properly

With the new style RBA decks there are no juice channels, instead there is two holes. Make sure the wick covers the holes and they work fine.

I usually use Rayon wicks in mine and do the bunny ear way. Slide your wick in and use enough where it is snug but will slide thru the coil, and then take the two ends and hold them together, Put the chamber on with the top cap off, trim the wicks just past the chamber, tuck them down where they are covering the holes and then screw the top cap onto the chamber. Juice the wick, fill the tank, vape away.

It does help and mine is otw and is supposed to be genuine I got it from myvaporstore

The contents list wasn't that detailed

Thanks guys awesome as always


Got one of mine from MVS. I like it it a lot. I did hate the prebuilt coils and the coil on the rba deck. I find the deck to be one of the easiest to wrap a wire around. I guess it depends on your wire though. You won't be building any triple dragon breathing clapton twisted roaring split nano coils on it though.
