I've never had a smok tank that didn't leak like a running water faucet when using the RBA decks. I've tried different coils, different wicking methods, etc..... Still the same result unless I packed them so full of cotton they couldn't wick at all and it was nothing but dry hits.

I bought an OBS Engine a few months ago and it's the best tank I've ever owned. I really need to get 2 or 3 more.

I love the Engines. However, I was surprised to find the Smok factory coils for the BB/BBB way better than I expected for flavor. No leaks and excellent longevity. Good cloud as expected, but I'm more a flavor vaper. I haven't tried the RBA yet, so no idea what happens with that deal. But the Smok coils were decent enough for me to buy extras. As I primarily build, most of my factory coil tanks get chucked in the back of the drawer. These actually see use.

I like the Fireluke Sextuple coils better than the Smok coils and I own several Smok tanks. Do I still use them absolutely, have the leaked? Yes, 1 was a bad oring on the Q4 coil and the other my wicking was wrong on the RBA.

I do like the Smoks with the factory coils but I'm cheap so paying for factory coils as opposed to the cost of building my own negates the enjoyment.

I had mostly been doing RDA/RTA, but my daughter's BF gave me a Baby Alien with baby beast tank In trade for a Cleito 120... I got the better deal there, ya think? Anyway, it's been a rough couple of weeks, devastating actually, with no time to rebuild or fiddle. The BB has been quite handy and easy to fill n go. Great flavor.. no leaks. I like it and definitely a cloudy little thing. My daughter has a UWell crown 3, and I snatch it up and give it a vape when she's not looking. It's really nice. Its smooth and flavorful and major cloudy. I would buy the Crown 3 if I was in the market for a new tank with stock coils.

You're jacking your daughter's vape? Now that's low! Almost borderline child neglect![emoji6]
Sounds like you gota deal on the AL85 kit. I just ordered a Tesla Stealth for the just in case scenario.

I've gone to the AL85 with a BBB (3 ml BB just doesn't do it, and I'm not sure it's even 3 ml) as an out and about. Hasn't leaked once, and with the 0.4 ohm coil 35-40W is more than enough for me so battery life is OK. As it's also not an ADV, I can get a month or more from a coil, so the 5 pack for ~$15 I can live with. Those $5 per coil for the tfv12 though, just no.

    Basically I left for a while and settled with making my own ejuice for 2 years using a uwell crown and 100w. But now I feel like Im overdue for a good upgrade. Which tank in general has like the best coils and the strongest clouds? Id really appreciate advice.
    Look go to My Vapor Store and check out the Innokin Scion tank. Its $13.95 and get the .28 ohm coils. They are rated for 100-200 watts. The flavor is astounding and the Clouds?! OMG!!! HUGE!!! I love it.

    And just think about it, if for whatever reason you don't like it, you didn't pay an arm and a leg for a tank you don't like. ;) But I can pretty much guarantee you'll love it.

    Oh and another thing, its been compared to the UWell Crown 3... so there's something else. Its like getting the Crown but cheaper. :p:p:p

    I have an order in for the Scion tank, innokin tanks vape better than some of my more expensive ones so I look forward to this. I have a cleito & baby beast but got a feeling this will better. Always thought innokin tanks have really good flavour but never thought they'd join the high wattage vapes.
    Big step up from the isubs I have!
    @Tonee N that captain an tank are a good combo. Is the captain the 20700 battery mod?? I have some ijoy batteries in a mech an they are decent.

    Yep, the Captain can come with 20700 batteries and you also get a sleeve to use 18650's with. Boompumper and I made sure our chargers would charge them since they are longer and thicker than the 18650's.

    I get very good battery life out of the ijoy ones an that's only a single cell mech so I bet the captain dual battery gives amazing life in between charges.

    I am satisfied with by BB and BBB. I am currently running the BBB with the rebuildable deck. My complaint is that when filling it does seem to leak. I think it has to do with the pressure with the top open for filling. So when I fill, after closing the top lid, I use a paper towel and wrap it around the air holes and give it a good blow to clear out any excess juice in the coil before I take a hit. The BBB wicks like a champ for me.
