If you wear a helmet you're less likely to pull your hair out?

The Helmet uses top airflow, so is supposed to have a less chance of leaking. Generally, this is true as long as you don't carry it around upside down. The Toptank is a bottom air design, but has lots more choices of coils to use than what are available for the Helmet. Lots of folks like the Toptank (some still prefer the original Subtank), whereas the Helmet is pretty new to the market so I don't think you'll find as much user experience for it versus the Toptank.

not sure but It doesn't look like you can rebuild on the helmet. THats an automatic deal breaker because im not spending 20 a month on coils. $15 is enough for coil and cotton for years.
I have two different kanger subtank minis.
one is a top tank. I like the previous model better. Every time i fill the top tank is squeezes juice out when i screw it back together. Plus the rebuildable atty hole is much smaller in the toptank. Not sure why they did that. If you can only get top tank you can drill a larger hole in coil. If its your first big purchase go with the kanger. You cant go wrong. just buy from rep dealer. I have bought fakes. Good luck.

The top UK vaping shops never stocked (refused) Smok products. The history doesn't lie.
Unreliable products, broken hardware, leaky tanks. Worse than Eleaf... !! :eek:

The only reason anybody even notices them is the commission/incentivized reviewing.

Sure, they are cheap. Also, they are inventive. They also make very high power kit; the point of which I am not convinced. I only bought one tank; it shorted and killed my battery.
Don't trust those reviews, particularly from those unreliable fake websites we all know and seem to love.
Ask the community not those charlatan reviewers.
(grrrr)

between the 5 toptanks and 2 pro tanks ... no leaks except by user error(overfilling) or during the summer high heat.

that small holed rba is fine, you just need to build accordingly, I have no issues with either flooding or dry hits. it takes some practice though to do the right wicking and the subtank thread explains it well. the pro tank rba is actually similar to the v1 rba for the subtank with being screwed on bell and slots at the bottom.
