How are they working for you taste and vapor production wise compared to the .5Ω ones?
I am running my Kanger Subtank mini rba deck on .9 ohm (spaced 4 wrap 28awg IIRC) at 13 watts and it is cloudy and flavorful. The OCCs were fine but I prefer the rba I think (even though I'm still a bit of a build novice). Many others seem to run it at 25+ watts and lower resistance. I had it at .5 Ω and ~19 watts was good, had dry hits above 23 watts. Now have dry hits above 15 watts at .9 Ω. I'm still playing around, but this current build/wattage is working awesome.
Other important factors:
Tobacco and vanilla DIY juice
4mg
50/50 PG/VG
Organic cotton, standard wick
Only had Subtank for 3 weeks
Coming from BCC clearos
Been vaping for 6 years
Used to be mouth-to-lung, doing a lot of direct lung but still switching back sometimes
What's your style with the Subtank? How are you running it? What's your wick-style? Dry hits? Wattage? Ω?
Any suggestions for an inexpensive DNA 40 mod capable of firing the new Kanger 0.15Ω coil ? Need to know price for whole set-up including mod, batteries, and charger. Already have the Subtank Mini.
Hey guys, so I've heard of the above mentioned symptoms of constant vaping, the whole losing taste of a certain liquid you've been vaping constantly and such, but I have a sort of weird scenario.
I get a very strange taste from some of my liquids. For instance, I bought some space jam Omega which is supposed to be peaches and cream with a hint of spices. My friends and girlfriend all seem to taste a very strong peach flavor, I however taste a weird spice flavor. It's almost a basil taste.
The weird thing is, this happens with a few different liquids, but so far it's only fruity liquids (space jams astro, and 2 of vintages liquids) which I don't vape very often. I've had some loss of flavor when I vape the same liquid constantly, but that's the thing I'm rarely vaping these liquids.
I tried using some mouthwash, staying hydrated, etc and nothing has worked.
Any tips/advice/possible info would be appreciated! I just wanna taste my juice!
ever since the discussion about the potential risk of using atlantis stock heads, there was talk of convincing Aspire to use cotton instead. has anyone heard any developments on this topic?
i myself only use rebuildables, but my brother does not and i bought him an atlantis for xmas, before i had found out about the potential health risks. told him not to buy any replacement heads until the cotton ones come out. but WILL the cotton ones come out? i tend to think so, so they could compete with Kanger.
i know a lot of people sent messages to aspire but can no longer find that discussion, so here goes. anyone heard anything?
The sub ohm coil head is $3.39 each and the hollowed out tube is $9.99 each from Hoosier ecig. Whats the difference? Is the more expensive one any better? Could it vape at higher watts or last longer?

So I purchased the eGo One after hearing amazing reviews of the device. I use an Aspire Atlantis on an MVP 3 but needed something more portable for work/going out. I was more than impressed with the eGo One using the .5 ohm coil, and equally so with the 1 ohm coil. The battery life is great, the flavour is perfect and the vapor production is unexpected. However, within 2 hours of using the .5ohm coil, the vapor began to taste burnt, more than on any other wick I have burnt. So until I could get hold of another I used the 1 ohm coil. 24 hours that one lasted. Joyetech said they would send me replacements free of charge, but while waiting for this I went to my local shop and bought another .5 coil. 1 HOUR LATER, it's frazzled. Wether I'm just being unlucky or the device is faulty I don't know, but I am incredibly disappointed. It's not through a lack of priming or using the wrong liquid, I'm an experienced vaper and had fully primed the wicks for 20minutes minimum and was using a 50/50 juice. This device had great potential, but it will be going in the bin for now (except the battery, which even does a great job on my Atlantis)
Just got this SX 350 mini M. It's been working beautifully sans a few issues that I am sure are user induced.
First off I will tell you that the Lemo 2 that came in at the same time is Freaking awesome. I have a Kanger Sub Lemo drop and now the Lemo 2. The Lemo 2 kicks *** I the airflow department. It's robust and easy as hell to fill. I put a 3mm coil in it and pancaked the wick. 9 wraps and it's coming in at .118 ohms. Awesome flavor production and nice thick vapor.
So I moved on to the Tugboat to see how Ni200 fairs in the RDA world on this particular device. I went bananas with my coil and ended up with this monstrosity.
I twisted two strands of 28g Ni200 together with a drill and wrapped it 17 times. It comes in at .06 ohms. Performance wise it takes a while to ramp up but when it does it produces thick vapor but towards the hot side. Another thing is that the drip too gets hot really quickly. I'm running it 50J and have the temp cut off at 425F. The hot drip tip is one of the issues I mentioned. I vaped this thing bone dry and didn't get any burnt taste.
Then I moved on to the Lemo drop. The manual had an interesting coil method reccomended so I decided to go for it.
This one I wrapped about 10 times on a 3mm driver. Stuffed a small amount of additional cotton down inside like the manual suggested. The problem is that it gets stupid hot (the drop tip) stupid fast. I'm running it at 17J because this one is coming in at .365 ohms.
Short story long the device itself is working great. I just need to find the sweet spot with this Ni200 coil wise. Any tips in that department would be greatly appreciated.
At the end of it all the LEMO 2 and the Mini M seem like they were made for one another.
So i've been getting more and more into RDA's and sub-ohming, which i'm actually preferring over my Subtank and Atlantis nowadays for vapor production and flavor, never thought i would make it to this point!
But as the title suggests, why is the first hit always the best after a fresh new wick and coil in a RDA? The vapor totally plumes outward and is very dense, i'm talking block out the sun kind of dense.
Then every vape afterwards is still good, but never quite like the first :/
I was borrowing my bro's Atlantis, for awhile. I put a new coil in it, a couple days before I returned it. It was hitting great. When I give it back, we dump the juice back in a bottle and put the tank back in its original box. About a week later, he sells it to my brother in law. Here's the weird part - we fill up the tank, assuming the coil needs no priming, and fire it up. It seems to be weak on vapor production. It has the nice crackle/pop, and there is no burnt taste or dry hits, but it just isn't producing the volume it used to.
Is this because it sat for a week?
So I'm stuck between these 2 tanks and don't know which one to get. I'm looking for what most people are looking for: vapor production, flavor, airflow, etc. Which one performs better? I also did a little research on the herakles it looks pretty good. Main question is, Which is more popular with the vaping community?
