At the moment Im just using Kanger Aero tanks and Mega Aero Tanks, I have 2 Innokin MVPs, I dont sub-ohm and Im not sure what is meant by "drippers" but I just tend to vape at about 3.7v for two or 3 secs, for as long as I have time (can be hours ) I also have the Aspire Nauticulus but tend not to use it as I know the coils cant be re-threaded (easily) with cotton. Im getting fed up with the dodgy Kanger tanks connections, eventually they just dont connect and Im also relying on Naturevapes coils for them as the Kanger ones are terrible. They do last along time, but combined with the tank issues Im wondering about going down a totally new tank route. So Im coming round to the idea of getting a tank that I can build my own coils on and wondered if people could recommend a tank to start out with, bearing in mind all the above stuff about not sub ohming etc. Thanks in advance

I'm presuming that you vape 'mouth to lung' so I would recommend a kayfun lite, considered a bit old school by some but for ease of use, ease of build and for flavour I think it's hard to beat , it's also very forgiving with the wicking.

The eleaf Lemo drop would be a good one. Same style of build deck as a kayfun but a better vape in my opinion. I loved my first one so much I bought another 2

I'd recommend a Taifun GT or GT2 happyloman. Easy to build on, easy to wick, customisable. I run mine at about 0.8 - 1.1 ohms, but you could build it at 2.5 ohms if you prefer. Incidentally, you could build a coil of any amount of ohms for any tank, whether it will be your your liking or not, is down to your style or vaping.

Subtank mini is my go to tank, and I don't subomh. Easy to build on the rba deck I build mine to about 1.8 ohm or the 1.5 ohm vertical coils are pretty good if you can't be bothered to recoil

I noticing most vendors dont mention if its ego 510 threaded, has this become the standard now?

Can I ask what subtank it is your referring to wight? I took it to be the Kanger and the Greigster "How to recoil" video sold me on it:) Brilliantly simple , but I keep seeing warnings attached to the Kanger subtank on each vendors page saying its only for subohming "These replacement coils are designed for sub-ohm vaping. They require more vaping experience to use safely, and extra care should be taken when using a sub ohm tank. These coils will only work on a mod capable of firing sub ohm atomisers. Please ensure that your batteries can handle the extra power requirements, and that your mod can handle the amps" are they just referring to the coils that come with it? Also can anyone recommend an ohms reader please ?

Also can anyone recommend an ohms reader please ? Subtank mini is what I would suggest. Just be careful when you buy the coils, the vertical 1.5 ohm are great IMHO these are the newer version that can't be rebuilt, the older ones can, I have about 10 used ones that I can post to you if you want theme pm me your address

Thankyou mate But if Kanger arent supporting building your own, then I dont think I would bother with them, Im looking for something that would last for a long time, your offer is very kind, but if Kanger are going to be like this then they aint getting my money I can keep on buyng the NatureVape coils for the Mega, I just have to more careful when pulling the cotton out so I dont snap the coil connections But I like the idea of only needing to buy some wire and cotton once every six months or so, so Im back to hunting around again. This site is an absolute goldmine of info though, been reading so many guides

This site is an absolute goldmine of info though, been reading so many guides I think your a little confused. The Subtank mini comes with OCC coils which aren't designed to be rebuilt and an RBA deck which is designed specifically to be built on in addition some users choose to rebuild the OCC heads even though that's not the design intent.

Your right I am Back to reading Have a look at the guide in my sig for the sub tank mini. It does show the v1 RBA but the V2 build is almost identical apart from final wick positioning
