Now since i'm not well versed with ohms etc, i would be rebuilding.
But would be re wicking.
So i'd prfer something which has a clr coil head.
So you are looking for a tank that can use stock coils, but also has a RBA base that you can build on (like the Kangertech Subtank Mini)?

On the subtank Mini the stock coils are not rebuildable but you can rebuild/wick using the RBA base.

Hi,
In the ego one all I used to do is replace the cotton. Because it was a clr coil head. Subtank mini I've no clue about it.

So you don't want to build your own coil, you just want to replace the cotton?

If that is the case, then I think your only option (unless someone else knows differently) is to buy a tank that can use the Joyetech CLR coil head. The only tanks I know of that can use this coil head are Joyetech tanks (like the Delta II).

The thing is i'm not sure how you rebuild a coil. So either i've to continue with the ego one. Or buy something similar to the ego one.

I did go to steam engine, but its quite confusing since I'm new to rebuilding.
So l probably buy a Kanthal A1 28 gauge, and an ohm reader. Do a few wraps n hope that it comes to 1ohm.
SteamEngine isn't that complicated. :) If you put in the type and gauge of the wire (Kanthal A1, 28 gauge), desired resistance (1Ω), you then play with the value for the inner diameter of the coil to figure out how many wraps of wire it will take to get a coil. Answer = 5 wraps on a 2.5mm bit, or 6 wraps on a 2mm bit.

I didn't get you. I want more vapour.
The evic has a bigger tank temp control and has 60w with a built in lipo 5000mah big battery

It produces a brilliant vape

But so does its litt brother the evic vt mini 75w and then you have big brothers the cuboid and the Rx200

The evic vt' swill offer tanks with the kits to make life easy

I love my Evic VTC mini with a subtank mini. The MVP does not have a replaceable battery. When it quits charging, it's just dead. You have to buy a whole new unit. With a replaceable battery unit, you just get a new battery (less than $10) You can also switch back and forth with your batteries, so you always have a charged one. I use Kboxes and the VTC mini.

You can build temperature control coils or regular kanthal coils on the subtank mini RBA. The coils last a long time, so all you have to do is build it once and replace the cotton when it starts tasting bad or gets gunked up. For my KBoxes, I use kanthal on the RBA, for my Evic, I use Stainless steel and Titanium wire. (you can also use the Evic in wattage mode, so you can build Kanthal coils.)
