I have used ecig. now since 2009. I have been a dripper all along. It has a 510 atty. The problem I have is getting liquid dripping on clothing and hands.
I would really like to have a uncomplicated tank. I don't want something I must rebuild, something easy to use, non-leaking, that takes no effort
to attach to my mod What do you suggest and where can I find his if it exists. Thanks

e Baron Dripper Pro.... still a classic for the ProVari.

You can buy ready made wick/wire replacement coils but they are easy to rebuild.

Sounds funny to me someone who has been vaping as long as you have and dont want to rebuild...

Cus if you buy ready made gear it's chinese made with chinese sourced material...8-o:shock:

I have a Provari 2.5 and I used it mainly with Aspire Nautilus' for the first few months. For the past year I have been using Kayfuns, most recently a V4. The Nautis are pretty easy but not perfect and the price of replacement coils does start to add up. My Kayfun V4 has been trouble free and I can rebuild it in about twice the amount of time that it takes to replace a coil in a Nautilus. Plus, I save money and have much greater control over the quality of my vape. Rebuilding is not as hard as you may think and there is a wealth of how to information here and on YouTube. I think you could do it but if you prefer not to, The Nautilus is not a bad choice.

Yes, I have dripped a long time and went through so many sets and mods it cost a fortune over the years. I am over 70 so lots of the new things I did not feel I could do...so never tried the rebuilds. Plus have never kept close contact the past many years with this site. I'm going to look at the Aspire Nautilus. Thanks

My daughter is using a mini Nautilus on my Mini Provari. Seems to be working pretty good. No c/o leaking issues.

Cost of replacement coils would be a concern for me, as I rebuild on a Kayfun Lite Plus RDA for my own full size Provari. It's almost silly how inexpensive it is to rebuild compared to factory made stuff. A year's supply of wire and cotton for only a few dollars compared to $3 replacement coils every 1 - 2 weeks.

The coil in my KFL+ is approximately 6 months old. I simply dry burn it clean with every wick change (about once a week). An authentic KFL+ is not an inexpensive proposition, but IMHO it is well worth it. Extremely well made and engineered and should last YEARS. I've had mine for over a year and only had to replace an o-ring once (started leaking out the air hole). Great flavor, good vapor production, no leakage. Inexpensive clones are available (Ecigity).

I'm 61 and my eyesight is not what it once was either. I use a lighted magifying glass on a stand to assist me when I build and re-wick.

Although not as popular these days, also consider a cartotank. I always found they gave better performance than any clearomizer and used them faithfully for over two years before I got into rebuildables.

IBTanked Pyrex Cartotanks: Review

Thank You very much for all that info. I did order the Aspire and did not realize the coils lasted for such a short time. Will try this for awhile and maybe upgrade later. Only ordered 3 replacements. When I started using the ecigs; there was no such thing as TANKS. At least as far as I discerned from this site. Baditude, thanks for going to all this trouble to fill me in.

IBTanked carto tanks. Easy to fill, don't leak under normal conditions, consistent and pretty much trouble free-
