If you're referring to the mini Protank, the only thing I'll be getting is the airflow ring, as I already have the tank. So I'm not thinking of getting a mini Protank instead of the Subtank.

I'm not sure I'll use the Subtank all the time due to the amount of juice it drinks and I've already got a couple of spinner batteries, which I'm not going to throw away, so might as well get the mini Protank working as well as possible, even if I only use it occasionally as a backup.

Thanks babs, I might try them for a Protank 2 v2 clone then if I decide to get one.

I was thinking of getting an airflow base for my mini Protank, as that's a very tight draw. I see there's a v2 and v3 for the mini www.discountvapers.com/kanger-air-flow-control-valve-base-replacements/ and I presume the v3 works better. These reviews for the full-size Protank version aren't very flattering though, although the second two seem to be complaining more about the tanks than the airflow base! www.kangeronline.com/products/airflow-control-valve

Has anyone used and would recommend them? Is there anywhere other than myepack that sells them and doesn't charge £3 shipping for a £3.99 part?

Thanks, the mini is a bit small for me at only 2ml but the midi at 4ml would be OK. I'll bear them in mind for the future.

OK, I might get the Protank 2 as well then and I might find it better to use when out, as even though it's only 2.5ml it might still last longer, considering that the Subtank drinks juice. Is it the Protank 2 v2 you've got?

I was given my Cloupor Mini by a friend, so I'll have to ask him where he got it from and if he has the card. Thanks for the links for the batteries, how long do they generally last before needing replacing?

I'm currently using Clover 2500mAh spinner batteries with a mini Protank v2. My friend gave me his Cloupor mini and another friend's lent me a dripper but I need to get a tank for it and don't know much about them, so would appreciate some suggestions.

Ideally I want to get a fairly large tank, about 5ml, to minimise refilling. I probably refill my mini Protank about three times a day, so I might get through a whole day on 5ml. The dripper I've got has an adjustable air intake ring with various size holes but even on the smallest one it creates a nice cloud but it tends to whistle a bit when sucking on it, which is a bit antisocial to use in public, so I want to try and get something that doesn't do that. I like that the dripper has large coils and mounting posts, so it's easy to rewick, whereas on my mini Protank I find it almost impossible to rewick them without breaking the coil (presumably by pulling it out of place) as the coils are so small that I either can't get the cotton through it, or I end up with a wick too small to stop the coil getting flooded.

I've always understood the best way to vape is slow steady draws, which works OK for me with the Cloupor mini at around 10W. At higher settings it tends to get too hot. My friends tend to do short sharp draws, which allows them to use higher wattage but I prefer the method I use as it feels more relaxing and the other method feels a bit weird to me. I'm quite happy with the vape and cloud at 10W anyway, so I don't really need to go any higher.

So, any suggestions?

Sorry for the delay in replying, I wasn't notified of your post.

I'm using a mini Protank 2 with 2.2ohm heads I think. Sometimes I use an iclear16 as well.

I'm so over trying to use those micro coils. I've bought three now and two I think I managed to break the first time I changed the wick and the third I managed to change it once or twice before breaking it. I find it almost impossible to roll up a strip of cotton small enough to go through the coil which is also thick enough to block the holes at each end to prevent the head from getting flooded, especially as I have to remove the silicone seal to get it to screw into my mini Protank properly. Just pulling the cotton through the coil seems to dislodge it and stop it working and it's obviously not economical to pay a lot extra for a microcoil that I only get to use once.

I still want to get a new, bigger, tank for my Clover 2600mAh VV batteries (I've got a second on the way from Fasttech as my original 1500mAh VV battery seems to be knackered and only lasts a few hours) but my friend's lent me his old mod with electronic controls and LCD to set the wattage and I think I want to get one of those to use as my main unit, as I'm a bit fed up with having to keep checking my VV spinners before vaping, as they turn too easily in my pocket, so if I'm not careful I end up vaping on 4.4v and just get a nasty burnt taste.

I also find the airflow's much better with the tanks (not sure which ones) my friends are using on their mods, so it's not like sucking on a solid object and the clouds are much better, both of which I like. I don't have an adapter to fit my mini Protank on the mod I've borrowed (and it would look pretty silly anyway). I do have an iClear 30 which fits but the airflow's terrible, so it's even worse sucking on that than my mini Protank and it also tends to leak out of the bottom all over the mod, so I've stopped using that. It wasn't really suitable for the mod anyway, as I couldn't really set it above 10w without it giving a burnt taste, so the cloud wasn't great, certainly not compared to whatever tanks my friends were using which were OK at 20-25W.

So I'm looking for recommendations for a bigger tank (at least 3ml, preferably 5ml) to use with my Clover VV spinners and the mod, probably two separate tanks actually as even if I can get one that will fit both (maybe with an adapter) it will better to have a couple so that I can easily swap flavours and not have to keep moving a single tank between the two.

I was looking at the full-sized Protank v2 for my Clovers but then I read some negative reviews of them which suggested they were worse than the mini Protank v2. How about the Protank v3, is that much better?

I've also started making my own flavours. Haven't done many yet but I've got the base ingredients, just need to get some more pots and flavours. My friend was going to lend me his old dual-coil dripper and I loved how easy it is to change the wick on those, as the coils are much bigger. Unfortunately it wasn't working properly and two out of three of the mods we tried it with only worked intermittently and kept saying "No atomizer", so he's taken it home to re-coil and try and fix. I don't know if there's any tanks I can get for a mod that will let me replace the coils, or at least use large coils that are easy to re-wick, like a dripper but if so that might be the most economical option, rather than using ready-made disposable heads.
