[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Anyone use these Subtank coils?

Posted: 3/1/2017 10:35:25 PM EDT

Since our second child was born I have had less time to rebuild coils, go shooting, eat, piss, shit..etc.

I ordered some of these in .5 ohm clapton/kanthal to try out in case of emergency. Any good?

Never tried them, but let us know how they are. I'd break out my old Subtanks if those coils are good.

They should be here today if USPS doesn't fuck up. I'll let you know.

USPS fucked up. They never showed up.

That's depressing. I was hoping I would have a reason to dig out my subtank again as a backup tank.

They might be here tomorrow, or the next day, or the next day......

They came today. They look nice and I see no reason why they shouldn't work well. Nice, big wicking holes and a third small wicking hole on one side, which is weird but I'm sure it helps. They came later than expected so I just but two fresh builds on both my Subtanks. No reason to take out a perfectly good, fresh build so I'm gonna wait a little longer to try.

Nice. Keep us updated.

I use These.

I got a bunch with my Wotofo Serpent Sub tank. They work great.

Finally slapped one in my mini. Great flavor and good production. Definitely more airflow than the RBA deck. The coil is reading .64ohms. So far I am running it at 32watts which is pushing 4.53 volts. Still have to play with that a little but so far I like them.

I'll have to add a pack onto an order sometime.

It's worth it. Still no dry hits or gurgling. They do seem to take longer to heat up than my RBA coil but no biggie. I just don't pull very hard at first.

I think the best way to go with the Subtank is with NI200 coils and temp control.
I find setting the preheat at 50 watts and the temperature at 470*F on my Sigelei...
the Kanger NI200 coils do a surprisingly good job, and that's with using max VG juice.
No dry hits, good flavor, and plenty of vapor.

I'm still rocking my sub tank minis with OCC coils when not using the rba heads. I have a top tank mini and it came with one of these I guess I need to try it.

That's funny, I've gone back to making coils and started making my own juice BECAUSE my kids were born, in order to save money. I just have to wait until they go to bed on the weekends, then I go to town.
