I prefer a strong throat hit but without the clouds of vapour as I hate drawing attention to myself. I've tried a few friends isticks but I don't know what tanks they were using and I found they were much milder than than mine.

Wow Snow, you have some great kit there. Are your isticks the 60w ones?

Hi Snow, the coils are these which I stocked up on a few months ago so I assume they will be silica? vaperstore.co.uk/atomizers-atomisers/replacement-coils/357/kangertech-kanger-coil-head-353-detailAt the moment, I'm using 10mg, all pg eliquid which I make up myself. (I prefer to create as little vapour as possible). I've been gradually reducing the nicotine in my liquid but I struggle to go below 10ml so I've been stuck at that for a while now. I really did think I would be able to re-wick my protanks and bought cotton etc but I was rubbish at it so I'm probably not going to be able to manage doing it on any other tanks I get. Thanks for your help. |

Thanks Greg, I'll take a look at the batteries now. Thanks Des for you vote on the eVic and putting me wise to the size of the istick 60w. Snow, I know what you mean about going back to the Protanks. I've tried a few others and found they were too airy for me. You lost me half way through your post when you mentioned sub-ohm and full-ohm as I don't have a clue what that is  I tried rebuilding the coils for my mini protanks and failed miserably. I know I need to educate myself to bring me up to date in the vaping world so I'm going to have a look at the Kanger Subtanks to see if I can figure out what they are and how they work. Has anyone tried an aspire plato or an istick pico? |

Greg, my Protank 2 minis are ego threads so I'll get a few adaptors for them.
Can you suggest a decent tank to try with my new mod?

Hi Greg, the EVic Mini looks like it could be ideal. I'll read up on it now. Thanks  |

I really like the look of eNVy17 Stealth Mod and I may buy one of those anyway but I'm now thinking/realising I won't get everything I want in a basic mod. So, based on what you've told me, I think a mini mod is out of the running and even one which houses the tank inside? My priorities would now be: 1. Interchangeable 18650 batteries. I panic if I don't have a backup battery and backups for my backup when I go out  2. Still able to use my Mini Protanks until they give up the ghost. 3. A nice, leakproof, easy to use new tank would be great so maybe a complete kit would be a good option. 4. A reasonably discreet size. If I'm missing something please feel free to prompt me  |

It looks like I need some education on how to use them I don't think I'm looking for sub-ohm mods or anything with great power. Just something that has long battery life or interchangeable batteries so I can carry spares. In the past, I've found the lower ohm coils have burnt my mouth so that's why I use 2.2ohm. I'm checking out the iStick 60w now thanks. |

I like the look of your second link B Road Blaster but is that a built in battery or replaceable? I would really prefer a mod that I can have several batteries in case they run down. djs, does the iStick 30w have built in battery? So many things out there and I'm totally confused  |

Thanks for the links guys, I'm checking them out as we speak.
Any advice for a suitable box mod that I can try?

Hi B Road Blaster, Thanks for the link. I use the Mini version so I'm not sure if the coils will be the same for this one but I'll look into it  |

Hi everyone, although I've often lurked in the background, I've not posted on AAEC for a while as I've been happy using my Kanger Protank 2 mini's with 2.2ohms coils, along with some GS 2200mah batteries. Now my lovely Protanks have been discontinued  and I can't buy them anymore, although I've still got around 40 new 2.2ohms coils to go through but they won't last me forever so I'm thinking of moving on to a box mod. My problem is, although I've been vaping for around 4 years, I'm still totally clueless about all the technical stuff. I've been looking for a few weeks now but I'm totally confused about the wattage/ohms etc I'd still prefer a "charge and go" set up but where do I start?  My Wishlist is: 1. Still be able to sometimes use my precious Protank 2 mini's until they need to go to vaping heaven. 2. Something relatively small, if possible where the tank fits inside the mod. 2. Replaceable batteries. 3. Not to have to worry about Ohms and wattage and the like. Now I understand that I may not be able to have all my wishes come true but if you guys have any suggestions on what I should look at, I would be sooo grateful. Thanks Sue |
