- Interesting drip tip on that. The stock one on that tank is awful. I got this one (smooth white) and love it: http://captivape.com…Cosmodrome
- I only use that tank on a Sigelei 30W box mod. I'm using a .5Ω coil and it has lasted about a month only today started getting crappy. Seems pretty good to me.Cosmodrome

Not my home, so I can't speculate on the validity of the source, but I thought this was interesting: https://www.gov.uk/government/ne…

i find it hard to throw down $80+ on a mod when it's basically a glorified battery holder so i love me some clones. i'm just gonna lose it at a festival or something anyway.
$62.60 on ebay just now got me:
a black mutaxion x v4 clone tank atty
which will go on an AR clone
a cheapo "smpl" mod/plume veil drip combo that comes with a battery
and a digital ohm meter
hope they aren't rubbish!
- the SMPL rig arrived today (without the battery) and it works great. it looks nice and minimal, feels heavy, does what it's supposed to. not bad for $22scarabin
- I have a clone of that mutation X v4 and the orings are so weak it keeps on falling apart in my pocket!err
- @scarabin, it's probably just bad luck, but my ohm meter like that stopped working after about half a dozen builds. I have a Mutation, it's great.BuddhaHat
- Some replacement wide tips don't fit, which sucks, and close it completely if you have to lay it down, or it can be leaky. Crazy clouds, though.BuddhaHat

Just ordered this:
and this:
Im excited to hop on this temperature control (No dry hits!)
Temp Control is apparently a technology that measures the temp of the nickle wire so that it never gets hot enough to burn the cotton. You can supposedly vape till the cotton is dry. Ill report in when I can try this out.

oh also that dripper has its airflow on the top so it doesn't leak!

Sorry for potato quality, I used an old phone to take the pic. The old pen-style batteries are from when I tried out vaping a couple of years back, and all the big ones on the left are new. Nemesis mod w Derringer, Subox Mini kit, iStick 50W w subtank & bell cap, and Kbox with a UD Jaws. I pretty much only use the mechs and the drippers at home, otherwise it's RTAs and VW mods, for safety and convenience.
My friend had a belt sander, a drill press and a big chunk of hardwood (jarrah) so I made a bunch of tank stands in his shed one afternoon. I can't remember the names of most of the tanks in the stand, except for the Goliath on the left.

I never use egos anymore.
Just box mods for consistency and power.I still keep my 4nine mech for days when I want something small and simple.
Oh and RDAs no tanks.
How are tanks these days? Do I need to buy one? I still have a couple kayfuns. But I cant deal with those tiny airholes.

My new setup.
Aromamizer RDTA
IPV D2The IPV D2 is tiny, it's smaller in height than my SMPL, barely taller than a 18650 battery. Still haven't fiddled with Temperature Control but I'm planning to try it as soon as I get some Ti wire..
The Aromamizer is just incredible. It's basically an RDA with a tank around it. Direct airflow and the flavor is absurd. Already ordered the new deck which has a velocity type 2 posts design, and they're working on releasing OCC heads too, which will turn this tank in the most versatile beast around.
@buddahat if you like RDAs and you're looking at tanks, this is it..- I meant @errESKEMA
- im liking this setuperr
- Do you need different wire (Ti) for temperature control?Cosmodrome
- Yes. You can't do temperature control with kanthal. At the moment the usual ones are Ni (Nickel) which I won't ever use and Ti (Titanium)ESKEMA
- Some more advanced devices can also do with SS (Stainless Steel)ESKEMA
- BuddhaHat0
Thanks ESKEMA, the IPV D2 is top of my list at the moment, it looks like a solid piece of kit. I have a Nitecore D4 charger and plenty of batteries so adding it to the collection won't be a problem.
What kind of coil builds are you putting in the Aromamizer? I have no problem with builds, as my current favourite dripper is the UD Jaws (IGO-W11), and has this stupidly difficult build:
The Aromamizer looks like it has the same functions at the Goliath, but with a much bigger post space, so I'll check it out next time I pay my local store a visit. Cheers!
- the biggest difference is that it has direct airflow, not bottom like all other tanks. It has 4 massive 3mm hole going directly from the side into the chamber.ESKEMA
- it's not the most easy to build on but I've already ordered the new deck which I love since I have a Velocity. The 2 posts / 4 holes design is just perfect.ESKEMA
- Those little Hex screws that come with the Aromamizer are evil, I hate them. Philips head every time, so much easier.BuddhaHat
- It comes with both, but the phillips screws tend to cut the leads way more, and unscrew more easily. That's why people use the hex ones.ESKEMA
- That Velocity deck looks amazing, quad coils would be a piece of cake in that.BuddhaHat

Yeah don't be a dummy with these batteries! My friend had an 1865 sony battery and the plastic was pealing off. He thought it was as harmless as a AA battery and threw it in a charger. A few mins later his charger was on fire.
I am super careful with my batteries but I know most people don't know that they can short very easily if that plastic wrap comes off even a little.
- Bad vid sorryerr
- Which 18650 batteries do you rec? I've been using a couple Sub OHM Cells for a few months and they've been great.Cosmodrome
- But one has got pretty beat up, and I don't care much for fire anymore. Looking for a couple new ones.Cosmodrome

This is a better vid

- Great unit, I've got one, the 2nd generation coils that this thing uses are way better than the original, make sure you get vertical coils when you buy spares.BuddhaHat
- :( thx for telling me nowpango
- Kidding
Thx :)pango - Ok. 6 hours no cigarette and I haven't killed anybody. Good start.pango
- That's the same one I got!!!monospaced
- Let's do this pango. I'm 6 days in and I didn't even have to use my ak. It's a good week.monospaced
- I actually got the Nano, but same idea.monospaced
- Fuck yeah. I've just passed the 6 months mark. This shit is awesome.ESKEMA
- How over do you replace the coil thing?pango
- *Often.pango
- In that tank, it should last you about 2 weeks.ESKEMA
- ha AK.pango
- If you hammer it, you can start to detect a bad taste as soon as around a week, in my experience. Worth changing often, just remember to prime them first!BuddhaHat
- yes yes. always prime it before you screw it in.pango
- I've been using my same coil for a week, seems fine. How do I know when to change it?monospaced
- They say you will feel the bern taste. Or dry hit. I'm guessing no smoke?pango
- You will know. It will be less obvious with this, rather than a RDA, but the flavor will get kinda bland and/or burned.Cosmodrome

- sorry, to stop you burning the coil, not the juiceBuddhaHat
- nice. too bad the story i bought it from at no refund policy.pango
- If you haven't already, you'll discover an addiction to the equipment itself if you're not careful. My guess if you won't have just 1 unit for long :)BuddhaHat
- I type derppypango
- Ya I'm already thinking about getting a 2nd tank. To make changeing coil and refill juice easier.pango

Juice!
what juice do you guys like?
currently vaping this Rum Punch at 12mg
It's alright...
thinking about upping the nicotine. lol- for me coffee @ Max nic, love that shit, it's clean & it tastes like my favorite drinkmoldero
- I have one called Blackberry Dry Blend (has a hint of tobacco in it), 6mlmonospaced
- 6mg that ismonospaced
- i'm guessing you didn't smoke much to being with? i smoke maybe 0.8 packs a day. 12 mg still doesn't do it for me.pango
- hey pango, that really depends a lot on the device / resistance / watts. With more restrictive airflow, higher ohms, lower watts then yes, up the nic. As you goESKEMA
- opposite settings, you start to lower the nic. I'm at 3mg, more than that just burns my throat.ESKEMA
- I smoked like 7-8 a day. 6mg works but I do it with lowest airflow and low impedance (low ohms, more power).monospaced
- @ESKEMA it could be your juice, some have more throat hit on purpose, I guess its about the mixture of the 3 parts or some shit, or it could just be ur voltagemoldero
- Interesting. I'll play around with that.pango
- I'm all adjusted by now. And I make my own juice. I vape around .3 ohms at 42 watts, lots of airflow.ESKEMA
- how do you adjust ohms? my mod is fixed at .5 ohms 30w little air flow.pango
- your unit comes with two atomizers... one is .5 ohm (strong) and the other is 1.5 ohm (weak)monospaced
- I'm similar to ESKEMA, 0.35-0.45 ohm builds, anywhere from 30-40W depending on the juice. At least 50% VG for me.BuddhaHat
- @pango the Subox tank comes with pre-made OCC coils, and an RBA unit that allows you to build your own coils. Tiny and fiddly, but users some prefer them.BuddhaHat
- I really can't say enough about Velvet Cloud's juice. I haven't experimented a ton, but I didn't need to after I picked up a few on set's recommendation.Cosmodrome
- What 50% VG?pango
- Whatspango
- If you want tobacco flavor, get the Blue Beard. After a bit, when you start lowering your nic level (i'm at 3mg after only couple months) try other flavors.Cosmodrome
- You might forget what drew you to cigs in the first place. I really like their "Mt. Shasta Frost" which is a mint/menthol. I rarely smoked menthol before.Cosmodrome

Great. 2nd days with no cig. and 12ml juice bottle only half way through. $15 a bottle. i can see my self save money with this. otherwise i spend almost one pack a day at $11 dollars a pack up here in vancouver....
- Congrats :) I'm up to about 3 months, for me it was finding the right juice (caramel) that finally got me off the gaffs. Keep it up! You too, mono!BuddhaHat
- $11 holy fuckmoldero
- ~ $25 in Australia now = $24CAD & $18USDBuddhaHat
- Wait till you find out how much cig costs in Us and Mexico.pango
- 3 days! That is very impressive by my standard.pango

@pango - be careful testing new coils. Either use an ohm tester, or very carefully put load on new coils by not holding the fire button for too long. If you hold down fire on a build that's short-circuiting, you'll fry your lovely new Subox. Instructions on how to build the RBA coil for your device:
