Kanger Subtank Mini Problem - Help Please!

[mikemichelle]

Hi guys,

About 5 months into vaping now and still going strong! However, today I took possession of my brand new Kanger Subtank Mini and connected it to my Eleaf iStick 20W (I'm ordering an iStick 50W to use as my main battery and use the 20W as a back-up/spare). I couldn't get a even a hint of a puff out of it and the iStick had the message "Atomizer Low". Can anyone shed some light on what has gone wrong please? Very disappointed that my new toy isn't working!

Simply that the subtank is has a 0.5ohm coil head fitted as standard and the iStick 20 only goes down to 1.2ohm. Mismatch I'm afraid. You could try the other coil head that comes with the mini which should be 1.2ohm.

Many thanks sydsut. Does that mean I will be OK with an Eleaf iStick 50W (I'm hopeless when it comes to the technical side of things)?

Yeah it'll be fine with the 50w iStick or the 30w.

Swap 'out' the installed coil and use the 1.2ohm. (if you got one, which I think you should).

Save your 0.5ohm for the 50 watt beast.

(I think the 0.5ohm vapes better, even at mini Nautilus power... )
