What tank are you using and how easy is it to rebuild?

Reason I asked, I ordered a Sigelei 75 watt that's a little harsh, even at 5 watts, with my current clearomizers. I'd like to get a tank that works on it.
The sigeli 75 might not actually go down to 5 watts several variable wattage devices will not go below battery voltage.

Lemo 2, Subtank Mini, got it! Thank you!

I'm not a cloud chaser, I just want something that'll work on the new box in case of FDA invasion. :) I'm used to the Kanger T3 clearomizer, and the Kanger T3S.
The T3S isstill a clearo I use a LOT. I modded mine though. enlarged the wick slots to 2mm and wind a 2mm 30 GA 1.6 ohm coil and wick with cotton and vape at 8 watts.
I even use in on a mech tube mod with an ego adapter works nice.
You will like the Sub Tank Mini with the 1.2 ohm coil that comes with it at around 12 watts or so.
I liked it so much I even bought another pack of 1.2 coils and I never buy factory coils any more.
So far close to 3 weeks on this one coil.
And nary a leak, dry hit or flooding in the Sub Tank Mini. Someday I will even try the rebuildable head too :)

Definitely. I just got a subtank mini and was telling my mother in law about the new fda regulations, and told her she needs that as I can make her coils compared to her nautilus mini, She had no idea about this, as her vape store never told her. She was quite angry. Like how dare the gov't tell me what to do. She feels better, I feel better than smoking and she smoked for almost 50 years.

They are just about the best tootle puffer for a noob. I stil use mine, but it's modified...
Yep that is what I have heard from many. They are one of the most recommended tanks for beginning vapers.
I just went the Kanger route. Not sure why. Cigalikes with cartomizers then Esmart 808 threaded clearos, then Evods, then T3S Which I still mostly use.

Anything can be rebuilt if you have the tools and eyes that see tiny things. I had Protanks and then Nauties and now I rebuild on RDAs and RTAs. I PIF'd those quite a ways back when I learned that coiling isn't hard and the coil and wick can be adjusted to taste. I build to about 1.0 ohms, kind of a middle ground to me.

I run a good number of tanks because flavor is important to me. Some flavors are good when waking up and aren't. I usually have a couple tanks for the evening when I am relaxing and vaping more. They have lower nic. Also, less air gives me more flavor, but when I am doing chores and/or running errands I like a larger, quicker draw.

One thing that will definitely get managed will be nicotine. Many are stocking up to make their own juice. I don't think Federal stuff will happen tomorrow, but State level restrictions are already showing up.

Anyway, a lot of things go into play with vaping. For me, it is a hobby, too.

I tried the Kanger stuff. The coils just sucked. Aspire BVC coils last a lot longer and give a better vape for an eGo type device. Just my opinion though. The Nautilus was the 1st tank I actually enjoyed vaping with. It and an RY4 were what got me off the analogs.
Yep the BCC coils suck and that is why I started rebuilding them right away. Then started modifying them. I only ever bought like 25 total coils. All are rebuilt now and about 15 are modified so far. The stock 1.8 coils burn on a 650 mah unregulated battery. My modified ones Vape nice at 8 watts or on an unreg battery which seems to be about 6-7 watts. More like 5 on a 650 mah battery. Those little suckers voltage sag a bit.

I modded a couple of nautilus coil bases. Drilled out the wicking holes to 2x the size. I use a horizontal single coil in them. Very similar to the horizontal build tutorials you see for the Atantis. Also modified the AFC ring to triple the airflow for light lung hits, but did it so that you can still use the factory settings for MTL options. I can coil it with 28G KA1 at around 1.8 ohms or 30G N80 at just under 1 ohm. I still tend to like it better with the 1.8 kanthal build and the 2nd largest factory air setting, but it was a fun project. Lol!
