I found an "interim job" this week and decided to reward myself. I was originally stopping by the B&M to get another Subtank Mini as this job involves a 45 minute commute and I'd like another 'bigger' tank to take with me (almost got a regular sized Subtank, but it looked ridiculous on the VF and didn't feel comfortable), but they hadn't gotten them in yet, so as I was standing there browsing (as I always do if they don't have what I'm looking for), they said they got more RDA's in. So I looked, but wasn't thrilled with the one that was suggested first, so someone else suggested my new toy. It looks great on the VF! I already know how to build, but I asked about different flavor builds, so they sat down and showed me how to do twisted builds. They built me a twisted 28g single coil that reads ~0.6 Ohm. Holy cow the flavor! I know, I'm like a little kid discovering the swing set all over again for the first time. lol. So...what do you think of my new toy?
What is your go to single coil build in terms of gauge wire, diameter, and number of wraps : (no fancy Clapton or twisted build just a "regular" wrap)
And if you have a reason please include it: For example: "I'm a flavor junkie and this is best flavor build I've found" or "I like short ramp up times" etc ...
(I know preferences may vary greatly)
Thank you very much

I recently picked up an infinite origen v2, my first build was single coil 2.4mm and it was not good on flavor, next build was dual coil 2.4mm at .5ohms, it was better on flavor. No matter what single coil build I try the flavor is just not there. Any suggestions on great flavor builds???
Ok I'm hoping I don't get heat for these questions/statements but educating ones self especially with something that is still very new is important to me.
1. Read some articles on how there is second hand vape similar to cigarettes (99% better mind you) what are your thoughts? Vaping may not be as safe as smokers think, research suggests | Society | The Guardian
2. Formaldehyde found in builds running at high watts/voltage? But 0% at low/normal builds, what i can't seem to find is whats considered to high for a Mechanical Mod or even for a V/W, V/V Setup? My normal build for a mech mod is twisted single coil 24 gauge 6-7 wraps, usually gets about 0.28 ohms and single coil 8 wraps of 24 gauge puts out 0.73 ohms on my flavor builds.

I need to buy another subtank, not the new subtank plus that looks like an over sized mini, the original 6ml subtank. Anybody know who still sells it? Everywhere Ive looked theyre sold out
Recently discovered the Slow Motion feature to record 240FPS on my iPhone, so my buddy and I decided to film a coil firing to see what it looked like slowed down. The build was a .21ohm quad coil on a Mutant 26650 w/ MNKE batts. I thought this looked pretty cool, and was wondering what others thought of this feature for showing off your builds.
Here is the one we recorded first.
Hey all, sorry if this is posted in the wrong place but I was wondering if anyone has tried a 24g coil build in the subtank mini rba deck and if it worked or not? Regardless I'm going to build a coil a little later to try and see how it works but I thought I would ask before hand on the odd case someone has tried, I've searched a bit and couldn't find anything, everyone seems to like twisted coils in these. The main reason I'm interested in doing this is because I've never vaped a successful tank with no burnt/dry hits yet so I figure the 24g ramp up time might help settle this problem, at least for me. I'm interested to see the thoughts so please reply
righto heres the story. started out with those ridiculous ecigs that looked like a ciggerette. but has the red light for a tip. Got it from our Neighboring country. next i found someone and got a Innokin itaste V3 and a ****ty tank. it was the budget kangertech tanks which has many problems.
after browsing around i decided to check out the ELEAF ISTICK 30W with a kangertech subtank nano.
What do u guys think of this combo?! also what box mods and tank combinations would u highly recommend? so spoiled for choices here!~ Feel free to share your experiences of your first devices! The more we learn the more better!
Yours sincerely.

Still semi new to vaping and have had my subtank mini for around a month and I have seen some unique builds lol, something that interests me and caught my attention is the vertical coil and to have the wicking around the coil instead of going through it. Has anyone tried this in the subtank mini? Pros/con's?thanks so much
Hey guys just recently got a Lemo2, wasn't happy with the coil that it came built with for some reason so built my first one to put in. I think it came out pretty good, I believe it came with 24g Kanthal and I did 11 wraps around 3.5mm came out to 0.9ohm. It takes a while to ramp up but seems to give a nicer vape to me than the stock one which was like 5 wraps around 2mm at 0.5 ohm.
Anyways, I tossed the original coil and now am wondering if I really had to or could have saved it. When you guys try new coil builds do you save your older builds? And being that it's really just resistance wire does a coil ever really need to be replaced or is it just for novelty/trying new builds?
Recently, I developed a pretty nasty cough, and I suspect vaping, since it usually happens right after I exhale, and at night when I'm in bed, it's a LOT worse. The problem seemed to start shortly after I got my Kanger SubTank Mini, which was about 4 months ago or so. I've been using 50/50 liquid for the past year or two and haven't changed the flavor in a couple years. I've also been using the same brand for about 4 years. The cough is brutal, and sometimes it hurts and makes me feel like I have to throw up. It's a lot like that tickle in your throat you get when you have a cold.
Things I've tried to remedy this:
- Gone all the way down to 20% PG, suspecting this may be a culprit.
- Tried many different coil lengths. I've built everything from 0.3 - 1.5 ohm.
- Tried using the OCC heads that are built for the subtank mini
- Changing airflow on the tank
- Building "looser" coils
- Building coils with different diameters
None of these have fixed the cough. The last step I guess I could try is a new tank or something, but I don't really want to do that.
Also worth noting, sometimes it's completely fine. No coughs.
Any ideas?
