Ohhh. I hate the mini protank. Muted flavor and pos as well. Mine gave a really disappointing vape ...for about a week and then the glass came unglued from the base. Mine was a mini protank 1, v2 might be better but I'm not gonna buy one.

Yes the v2 is different, fully capable of being disassembled. No glue.

I get pretty good flavor out of an EVOD with cotton wick (no flavor wick), same setup (same exact coil) the flavor is muted in the mini ProTank. The EVOD has a tighter draw, this has to be why the flavor is better because I'm using the same juice..same coil..same mod.

Cartos/RDA for the win.

dripping is my whole world now, as it is for many apparently... i love my IBTank's with 2 ohm Smok cartos for use on the road.

I love my BDC tanks or good Iken carto tank combos for travel but, other than that, RDA / dripping just absolutely destroys the competition. I'll never go back.

I would think a ProVari with a Kayfun atop would be a rather trouble free vape. I can't say for certain as I don't own either but have read about both extensively.

Thats a great vape, but OP asked for hassle free. I would say an MVP with an iclear. No batteries to mess with, last for days on a recharge, no tank to rebuild, no burnt taste.

Until you need to change out flavors, then the iClear rears its ugly side.

I don't think changing batteries is a hassle, its a feature.

Agree with the iclears. I hate them personally, but since getting into RBA I hate any cheap tanks. My mom loves them cuz there simple and she doesn't change flavors. I don't think changing batteries is a hassle either, but making sure you have a system for recharging is more hassle than just plugging it in at night every other day like a cell phone. I may have taken hassle free too literally, but if its a setup my 60yo mom can handle, then anyone can handle it.

I'm going to revise my earlier statement. Another very low-maintenance vape is to use the Smoktech eGo dual coil Mega cartomizers.

These are the eGo-threaded ones. They advertise them as holding 5 ml of liquid; I can't usually get more than 3.5-4 ml into them but they produce a lot of vapor and a lot of flavor, very close to a cartotank without any of the spillage risk or mess. With that much juice they last a decent time before needing to be topped off and can be topped off more than a regular cartomizer.

I have to agree with this. After trying all kinds of things from 510 atomizers & cartridges, regular & XL cartomizers, several kinds of CE-type clearomizers, vivi-novas, and carto tanks, I've settled on the eGo Mega Dual Coil Cartomizers on an eGo-style battery (either fixed or variable voltage) for most of my vaping. They are cheap, no-fuss, easy to fill, don't leak, give me plenty of flavor & vapor, and are "pocket-friendly." I keep one of these setups on me any time I'm out of the house.

Second place for me goes to the carto-tanks. I have several from Fasttech that I use Boge LR prepunched cartos in on my VAMO when I'm in the house. They have all the same good attributes as the EMDCCs except I don't trust them in my pocket. Occasionally I'll use one on an eGo battery in the truck, though.
