Suggestions for new setup welcome

Just a typical male ECF member.

If it was a selfie there'd be a recliner, umbrella, cooler, microwave and TV involved.

Funny you mention that. All I have to do is look at the window where the PC is and I can see the mailbox.

Crown showed up today. Clean it up, pop a 1.2 ohm coil in it, prime it, fill the tank, put the top on, and ! It's too big for the mod. Air flow ring makes it bigger than 22mm.



So now I get to siphon the juice out, put the base in, THEN put the tank on the base while it's attached to the mod. Then fill.

What a pain in the patella.

**sigh** Base doesn't even fit due to that air flow ring.

And I had such high hopes for this one.

just need a new mod for the crown and a new smaller tank.when it ends you should have enough backups.

Well that sorta sucks. Is there any way you could send it back for a refund?

I may keep it and snag another TC device to use at home. I'll have to research and see if the Crown Mini is any smaller in diameter, which kinda stinks as I was hoping for that 4 ml capacity.

I was going to suggest the Kanger Subtank mini as a good fit but there just aren't coils I can find for TC that are over one ohm. Hopefully the new crop of MTL stuff coming out will include some 22mm and under options for all of us that can offer TC at higher resistances and more than 2ml capacity.

I have a Smok Stick V8 with the Big Baby Beast on it, and it's a great little "break" puffer. You can buy stock coils for it in a few different Ohms, and a few different numbers of coil sets. I even managed to find the coils on the Wish app for a buck a piece, plus a dollar or 2 for shipping. And when they arrived, they were in the actual Smok blister packs, so I'm sure they're originals, not knock offs. If you're looking for something a little bigger, my daily vape setup is a Sigeili Kaos Spectrum with either a Cloud Beast or Cloud Beast King tank. But it's not really a MTL setup. The Smok Stick V8 is a better option for that, with the single barrel 4 coil. I'm kind of over rebuilding coils myself, so I buy stock coils for the CB and CBK also. Found those on the Wish app also. Just my two vape cents...

Not a good mod, my friend has had I've problem after another. It's ok if you don't mind a single battery mod, for the price of that I'd rather a Kangertech kbox

If you want another tank that will fit and have TC coils pretty much always to be found you could check out a Tobeco Super mini tank. 22mm (fits on my Pico) and you have all those Atlantis compatible coils to rummage through for TC. It performs really well, and can cover any vape style with the right coil. And it's a very affordable tank. And it has a 4 ml capacity. It's always been one of those sleepers on the market, but a real nice deal. It's also top fill and of 3 I've got around (2 regular and 1 mini) I've had zero leaks. One downside is it is not a 510 replaceable drip tip. You can find third party to deal with it if you don't like the standard.

An eGo/510 adapter will elevate the base of the tank enough to gain clearance while destroying the aesthetics.

I just got a Wismec Reuleaux RX 75 and love it so far - it has a squeeze to fire instead of a button and it's perfect for use by my wonky hands. I'm a confirmed mtl tootle puffer, but also a retired computer geek, so I while I didn't plan on using the tc mode, it's there, and sounds logical and fun, so now I need a new tank.* Thanks to said wonky hands I need drop in coils, too.

So all of that's to say that the Tobeco Super Mini sounds/looks like a good solution for me. Thanks

* I unexpectedly had to buy a new laptop last week, so it'll be at least a month before I can get anything else vape related. And I was already looking forward to trying out TC.

I've had one of those, and hated it. I recently dropped (actually it literally JUMPED out) my big mod and tank, and have been having to use the Smok Stick V8 until my new coils and box get here, and it's been great. I was on my last coil, and when I dropped the whole setup, it was the coil that broke in two, instead of the glass on my tank. I figured I'd be good til my coils came in, but NOPE. I didn't plan on that emergency, but you can bet I will in the future! My only back up plan was the Smok Stick V8, and thank God I have it.

Thanks for once again convincing me that I don't even want to try "upgrading" from what I'm using that works so nicely.
So what if it's 'so 2012ish', it works!

If you are looking for a quality TC device, I cannot say enough how much I am loving my HCigar VT75D. I have been using it in TC exclusively since I got it with zero issues. It has the easiest menu system I have ever used. It is the smallest form factor of any dual 18650 device, and fits nicely in the hand. Best of all it supports up to 24.5mm tanks but even 22mm looks good on it.

Smoant Battlestar with Uwell crown.
I use the .5 coils which are great for flavor and longevity. I mostly vape mtl so don’t let anyone tell you your coils need to be 1 ohm+ for mtl.
Good luck and if you choose this setup you will be extremely happy.
