I'd say grab the M65 if you don't mind charging it by usb, and like the smaller size. Taking those 4 Allen screws out regularly to change over the battery will get on anyone's nerves, I'll guarantee it. The sparks can be pretty though

Hi, just a thought but why would you buy a sub tank for £30 when you could get a kayfun 4 clone for about the same price? Not necessarily those two atties just used them as an example. Less hassle I think. No need to make coils, etc... Just screw in a new head & you're good to go.

Well I took a chance & ordered the 2.5ml Ego Tank, just to see what it was like. It arrived a couple of days ago and so far it's been alright.
To me it's a very similar vape to a Mini Nautilus. Maybe just a bit better taste, with a slightly warmer vape, on the Ego Tank ( both at 15w ) You can get a tight draw from it so you can mouth to lung. You'll just need the airflow ring pretty much closed off. It's super noisy when the airflow is opened up though.
It came with the 1.0 ohm head and it's still working, so I'll see how long it lasts. That's with me vaping a 12mg 75vg/25pg peppermint menthol juice.
I'd maybe recommend it over a Mini Nautilus, due to it holding a bit more juice & being more drop resistant thanks to the metal tank, but the price of the spare heads is the weak spot atm. Even more so if Aspire end up making organic cotton BVC heads at the same price as their current ones.
I know I won't be buying anymore Ego coils until I see how long they last, and MyEpack or someone else sells them in singles.

origen v2 dripper is the best about only had the clones got 4 of them, little flavour machines they are Yep, they're awesome. They've kinda ruined me though because everything else gets compared to them, and has so far lost over time. Kind of wish I'd never tried one now, as I'd be much better off due to spending £££'s trying to find a refillable tank that matches it. If you find a vendor of good v2 Genesis clones let me know!

At home i mostly drip but for out and about and work i use a RBTA, i have a Orchid V4, Kayfun4, Fogger V4 and the new Kanger Subtank but i dont really enjoy them half as much as my drippers. No matter what build i use, the flavor seems muted and ive tried almost everything from .4 in my orchid to around 1.6 in all the others, ive used organic cotton, rayon and Japanese cotton as wicks. Do i just need to face facts that drippers have much much better flavor and RBTA are just used to get me through the day? I'm in a similar vein of mind. Have tried various tanks over the past 2 months but I've slowly migrated back to my Origen v2 clone, and will be sticking with it, along with buying a few more for spares / backups. Just wish it had a bigger well for more juice. I'm tempted by the Origen v2 Genny clones, but the ones on FT seem poor going by the reviews.

Not just that ^^^^^^^^^^^^ katiekoo. I believe the istick has trouble regulating the power to a coil below 1.8ohms and can overpower a tad. With these subtanks I think you'll be fine at 1.2 ohms, just have to work the power up to a nice level, not just punch the numbers in. Should be a great vape tho thumb up The lowest an iStick 20w will run a 1.2 ohm coil is at 15 watts apparently, according to the wattage chart that did the rounds a while ago. www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/variable-voltage-apv-discussion/601111-eleaf-istick-42.htmlAbout half way down the page.

I'm hoping someone does a set of replacement o-rings in black!
Red's far too trendy for me. And clashes with my grey box mod...

I'd advise anyone wanting an M50 to go for the 65w version, because the 50w version has a very short 15 sec timeout on the screen, meaning a 1.5 sec delay in firing when the screen is off.
The 65w version has a 1 minute screen timeout, going by Martin Parkers YouTube video.
Plus you get pass-through charging too.

I would have thought that heavy vg juice would have had more trouble wicking than heavy pg juice. For the EGrip, you could always try the Aspire BVC coils in it & see if they work any better.
