Subtank, Good First Rebuildable? (+1 Add'l Hardware Q.)

Is the Kanger Subtank (mini, probably) a good way to get into rebuildables, or would you recommend I start with something else? If so, what? Please be as vague or as specific as you'd like. I'm not super particular about whether it's a dripper or a tank, as long as it's user-friendly and noob-approved.

Also, I'm going to be needing something to fire it, since I presume my little EVOD-twist won't have enough "umph" to get the job done. What I'd really like is to get a VaporShark rDNA-40, but the budget isn't going to allow for that for some time, yet. So, for the moment, I'm looking at the VS DNA-30, or the Eleaf iStick 30w which is like half the price. What would you say are the relative merits and flaws of each? Is there something about the VaporShark that makes it actually worth paying twice as much for, or should I keep the extra cash and just go with the Eleaf? Or, again, is there something else you'd recommend I look into before either one of those? Any input is appreciated, thanks!

Turning Over A New Eleaf

Friday it will be eight weeks since I've had a cigarette and I am rewarding myself with a new setup. After careful consideration, I've decided on the Eleaf IStick 30w with a Kanger Subtank Nano. The ELeaf has all of the features I'm looking for and the kit comes in at under 40 bucks. Not retiring my Ego C Twist just yet though. It's been a workhorse. It got me through some tough times...as has everyone here on the forum. Thanks.  

Recommend To Me A Solid Second Tank With Rba

Been building my vape hardware collection lately and at at the point where I wouldn't mind another good subtank, but it must have an RBA with it. Gotta be able to rebuild it! hah

My current lineup includes a Subtank Mini on the XPro M80 Plus, a 30w iStick, Doge, Dark Horse (by FAR my favorite RDA I've had or tried), and a Hades Mech. All decent stuff but I'd like to have another tank for my collection. What's a good (and decently priced) tank to go with my Subtank? I'll say this, I've tried the Atlantis and didn't care for it so don't suggest that. Any other suggestions?  

What Would You Recommend For Someone Quitting.

I was talking in another thread, and the question came up that may be a good topic... for the experienced vapers, if you had to recommend one vaping setup... both atomizer and battery.... what would you recommend to someone who had.. say.. a pack and a half per day habit? I am curious as to what you would recommend to get someone to stop smoking, and it be an "end-game" product.....one they wouldn't need upgrading later. Both atomizer and device.

And yes, I know some people may turn it into a hobby like me and want to buy a variety, but I am strictly speaking for the stopping smoking part.

I'll go first...

I'd recommend an Istick 30 with a subtank mini. I think that atomizer and battery combo offers a convenient size, good juice capacity, reliable, a wide variety of vaping options, and just a good "grab and go" setup.  

What Do You Think Of....?

Eleaf Istick 20w For Noob..

Hey guys, so I'm new into Vaping =D, well anyways lol .

Is it a good ideia to buy a 20W Eleaf istick MOD (2200mAh . 3.0V - 5.5V . 2,0W - 20W) with a ProTank II BCC (Bottom Coil Changeable, 1,5 ohm's) ?
I will only have to change the Coil Unit.

I want a pretty good vape from it, is it going to produce a "cloud" or not ?

Thanks !  

Atlantis V2 Vs. Subtank Mini

Hey guys I'm looking to upgrade from what I have right now which is the atlantis v1. I'm not a huge fan of the atlantis because of the inconsistency with the coils and the loss of flavor after 2 tank full. The atlantis v2 seems nicer with the occ coils and improved airflow, but I'm not sure if its worth the upgrade since I could just get the new 5-pack occ coils for my v1. The subtank mini still has better options with the occ coils and RBA. Also it seems the occ coils for the subtank is easier to rewick which could save me a few dollars.
I'm not sure which one to go with. I'm leaning more toward the subtank, but still not sure. Maybe someone who has either one or knows more about them could help me. I like to have a good amount of clouds while still keeping the flavor.

Or if anyone has a sub-ohm tank they could recommend that they like more than the ones I mentioned that would be good too.

I use an ipv2

Thanks

Kangertech Subtank On Eleaf Istick

Hi

I recently purchased the eleaf istick which I use with the kangertech subtank.

While I am impressed with the vapour production, I find it way too harsh and hot. On the coil it has the recommonded setting printed between 15 - 30w. I'm at 15w, but I'm still finding it too hot and harsh.

My question is:

is it safe to go down all the way to 11w or even possibly 8. I am confused as I've heard this could short my device or cause injury e.g device exploding, fire...

Thanks  

Finally! No More Urges To Buy New Gear!

Finally! I've tried so many sub ohm tanks with a shelf of them to prove it along with box mods and I've found my perfect set up that I'm 100 percent happy with. That urge of "must have more" and "must have the latest and greatest" has finally subsided after 100s of dollars spent. I can finally relax on hardware and focus on enjoying good juices. I still stay up on new tech but I'm finally happy on my go to juice vendor and hardware. Oh what a good feeling!

My goto set up: Atlantis V1 with cotton coils and 5ml upgrade and ipv mini 2 at 32 watts. Any higher then 32 and the vape is too warm to enjoy. To justify this, I personally own the following:

Atlantis V2
Subtank
Subtank mini using both Occ and rba
Delta I I using both coil and rba
Lemo
Lemo 2
Arctic tank
Starre tank
Herakles tank
Kayfun
Kay fun v4

Ipv mini 1
Istick 30
Istick 20
M50 with 65w upgrade

My go to juices are all from itcvapes. 20$ for 120ml for the win.

Time to sell off old items or give them to friends to help them quit smoking.

FYI I'm so busy that rebuilding isn't an option for me. It's much Cheaper, and I have a ton of kanthal in different gauges with a big bag of Koh Gen do, but I'd rather pay for convenience of coils.

Wonderful feeling!  

What A Difference A Proper Mod Makes!

I just bought an eleaf istick. I was using, for the few months I've been vaping, only eGo type batteries and decided to spend a little more on a mod and an RTA (EHPro kayfun lite).
The istick just arrived. I know it's not the most advanced piece of vaping hardware, but it's a huge step up from the eGo c twist.
I mean, with the same clearo (nautilus mini), the same juices and, allegedly, the same voltage, this thing makes my vaping experience so much better it's almost unbelievable.
If you're using an eGo battery, and you're serious about going on vaping and quiting smoking for good, by all means buy a regulated mod. It's really, really better.
I realize in the U.S. it's not a big deal, you can get a mod by $30 or less, but here in Brazil an istick goes for at least $100,but it's worth the money.

Now I expect the kayfun to be another step up, after I get decent coil building and wicking skills.

Just sharing the experience anyways.

Thanks for all the help you at this forum give to us at the community.

Cheers!
