Okay so now I have a delima. Since I came back to vaping lots of good things are now available. Vivi Novas, Kanger Pro tanks, IClear 30 and of course carto tanks. Now I have not tried an IClear 30 yet, but I have a problem. I love the VIVI Nova, love how customizable it is but hate having to tip. I love my Pro Tank the flavor is great, but the heads appear to burn fast or maybe it's just me. I never have burned a carto tank but I just am not as bit of a fan of them as the Pro or Nova. My other concern is that I want to start rebuilding and I know the Vivi is easy, not sure of the pro or the I clear and well carto tanks use cartos lol. So now I need to find a good system to work with for a bit so I'm not buying some new tank every other day.

I know this is a matter of opinion, but I want to ask opinions. last time I vaped I tried everything that there was and I ended up with tons of equipment that I hated, and it just got to be too much. I fell back to the simplicity of smoking and yuck. I hated it lol. So now that I'm back I figure some good advice would be a good idea.

Get a cheap rba dripper like a phoenix or an igo-l and learn to wrap coils. then you can step up to a genisis or other tank if you like. For me, nothing beats the vape from a good rebuildable. Plust wick and wire is much cheaper than replacing heads on clearos. JMHO :)

I might just do that. Get some heads for my clearos to use while I learn and once I can rely on my skills step it up.

i have a little pheonx dripper i got as my first rba and i absolutely love it, huge vapor production, it holds 5 to 10 drops or so. Almost identical sense of "satisfaction" nic wise as an analog. I can't wait to start working up into the high end models. Only downside is it needs to stay upright.

The Igo-l is real nice like previously said, and it can hold about 20 drops of juice. I've been experimenting with cotton wicks also, which is real cheap. I got a box of 100% cotton at CVS for $5 and there's enough to last me maybe 2 years? Lol. I do need to get a 1/16 drill bit though to Open the air hole more on mine. Also, you can rebuild the coils on the Vivi Novas. Lots of cheap ways of getting a great Vape these days!

Yeah I saw that on a review for them once. Might use that to practice as well it looked simple enough, I hope lol.

I can vouch for rebuilding Vivi Nova heads, once you get the hang of it you can tweak it to perfection. I'm a heavy heavy vaper and i can get a good week out of a head nowadays.

But I use those mostly on the go, at my desk i use an RBA. You can find a phoenix knockoff on the cheap, like OKC's bulldog. The "octopus" is also lovely though trickier to rebuild.

Still haven't mastered genesis atties.

Waiting on my own protanks.
