kanger Subox vs Sigelei mini 30w + Lemo 2

[nirk]

Out of these 2 options I have narrowed it down to, which do you think I should get...

Both would cost me the same amount of money.

Sigelei mini 30w + lemo 2

Kanger Subox

I prefer the look of the sigelei mini + lemo 2 as it looks more expensive, on the Subox I don't like the red buttons, but I read that the Lemo 2 you have to syringe all the juice out of the tank if you need to adjust the coil, so I am not sure about that.

I am more interested in flavor than massive amounts of vapor, also I want whetever is the easiest to use and less likely to break.

I am leaning towards the Sigelei + lemo 2 because of better RBA and I don't like the red buttons on the Kanger, but is it difficult to adjust the coil / wicking on the Lemo 2 after the tank is full and would that be easier on the kanger?

Thanks

Or to throw a spanner in the works Kingz of Vapour are doing the Sigeli 75w for £39.99 only downside is it being a preorder, shipping around 5/8/15

Don't have the Subox but i do have plenty of Subtank Mini's and the Sigelei Mini and Lemo 2.
As far as the Sigelei mod goes i like it, it's nice and titchy good for sticking in your pocket, i liked it so much i bought a second one, 30w though that's kinda on the bottom end power wise, ok for a tank but a bit underpowered if you fancy a drip.

I think the Lemo 2 beats the Subtank slightly on flavour but the Subtank is the more convenient easy to use tank and it keeps up better with thicker juices.

I don't have either of the mods but have both tanks.

When I want to empty the lemo to rewick I hold the glass in place and unscrew the top and just poor the liquid back into the bottle. Yes it's a bit messy but not a gigantic effort.

Obviously it's simpler on the subtank because it's bottom fill. So just unscrew the base.

I personally think the subtank is better looking than the lemo but that's personal opinion.

Flavour wise the subtank edges it for me but there's not much in it. And I've not tried the same liquid in both tanks. So could be that the liquid I have in the subtank is just more flavourful.

You'd think with the screws sitting in the recess the subtank would be easier to build on but I find the lemo easier because there's a bit more room.

The lemo doesn't like to be anything but upright. It leaks if left on its side (my friend has one and it's been relegated to the spares box because it repeatedly dumped its contents in her pocket). And if you over fill it leaks. And there's a fine line between too full and just fill enough with it.

So far the subtank hasn't leaked at all.

If I'm not picking the lemo 2 drip tip is stupidly wide and I've not found another that looks 'right' with it.

I honestly don't think you'd be disappointed with either.

My lemo sits on an m80 and happily runs a 1.4ohm coil at 18 watts. Zero dry hits since I got it.

Subtank is currently on a 20w istick until my replacement coolfire 4 arrives. Running a 1.4ohm coil at 16 watts and zero dry hits. But I have the v2 RBA base and am using 80% VG.

The newer RBA in the sunbtank is much better for higher VG. I don't think the lemo would cope that well with high VG liquid. But I've never tried.

Sorry that's a bit of an essay haha. Hope it helps.

If it was me, from those options I'd buy the Sigelei and mini sub tank.

fwiw once set and built ive not needed to faf with a lemo 2 build while subtanks can need a lil more fussing and rewicking..

Thanks, after reading that I bought the subox, I don't want anything that leaks at all that is probably my main concern! The subox looks alright, and Kanger are generally user friendly, it is also 50w vs 30w which I don't know if I would want anything over 30w anyway but is nice to have probably. Not overly keen on the red buttons, but other than that I like it. I ordered a subox and 2 efest 2500mah 35a purples.

sure you will get on fine with your choice nirk, but be wary of initial leaks from the subtank if you dont prime the wick with a few drops of juice first, only ever had a lemo2 leak on me the once when i filled up without wicking the coil (DOH!)

both grand attys tho, enjoy

[nirk]

What could I use to paint / color the red buttons black?

I like it except for the red buttons make it a bit "toylike"

I don't think you'll be disappointed at all. The subtank is a great atty and I'm loving owning it.

I love the lemo to and have not had any issues with leaking except for when I over fill it.

But as I said, my friends has several times emptied its contents in her pocket and she can't figure out how to get it to stop doing that.

The subox has a new improved version of the subtank which you can't get on its own

Improved in what way ? I guess that's subjective

I have to be honest I prefer the new rba base, other than that I have no issues with my old ones, however I will be buying a new one ...................... because it's black and I like black ......... it suits my mood
