I have the same sleeve - they're perfect!

[Rawwr]

Actually, we don't. It doesn't look like yours covers the top or the Kanger logo over the battery.

[Cotty]

The Kanger logo over the battery is for venting should anything go untoward, shouldn't be covered up. This is the one I bought

[Cotty]

Is that blue glass or have you got a very weird looking juice in there?

[Rawwr]

My sleeve has the Kanger logo cut-out rather than a full circle cut-out. It's black glass. It's dreadful so I went back to clear

Some help needed please guys.

I'm a technophobe and all this sub-ohm stuff and complicated talk scares and baffles me. I am also not sure on the relevance of it insofar as I don't need anything that can be massively adjustable and do clever stuff. All I want is a nice strong vape. I had an istick 20w and a nautilus and then a nautilus mini (after smashing the tank on the nautilus major). They were great.

I bought a nebox thinking it would be great and couldn't get on with it at all. There were too many options and all these coils and options and it didn't seem at all smooth to taste. I believe this might be cos it was more a "direct lung" vape and that isn't for me. The vape on the istick was far smoother.

So I returned to the istick but this is now spitting and not performing the way it once did. It has been good for 18 months or so.

I am keen not to make the same mistake as the nebox and waste another £60 or so on a new set up that doesn't fulfil and makes me turn to more fags.

I am looking at these.

That is the same as what I have, as per the picture I posted above, I just added a silicone cover. Its more geared to direct lung inhale at lower ohms. They do a 1.5ohm coil but I have not tried that, it might be more suited to mouth to lung, perhaps watch a couple of reviews on YouTube and see what they think of the 1.5ohm coil.

I saw a good review for the joytech ego aio by Suck My Mod on YouTube, ill try and find it tonight. It looks pretty simple to use, not millions of bells and whistles that you will never use.

Yeah I kind of found it backwards by looking at what you had recently posted.

That seems to be the issue - the basic kits seem to be more mouth to lung, but I need something with a bit more oomph to get some real flavour, whereupon they seem to move from the hardly give anything vape sticks to the turbo Gti model that does sub-ohm and all that jazz and is totally beyond my limited tech abilities or needs as a non-direct lung vaper.

[Rawwr]

The 1.2 and 1.5ohm coils are really good for mouth-to-lung and I can happily use up to 12mg nicotine ones with those. When I use the 0.5ohm ones for direct-to-lung, the limit is 6mg nicotine or it's just unpleasant.

Interesting. So do you have to p1ss about with the temp settings swapping between these 0.5 ohm coils and the 1.2 - 1.5 ones? Part of my trouble is having no clue on how to set these things up - the Nebox gave me all these different coils (ti 200 ones or something?) and I had no idea what wattage to run, what temperature etc etc. It was trial and error. Which resulted in error.

I am sure there are longwinded online instructions and tutorial videos but if I am honest I don't have a clue on tech stuff and my interest wanes quickly. All I want to do is chuff on some decent strong vape and not do anything fancy but the beginners kits dont seem to have any of the kick that the istick and nautilus dud when I first upgraded from fisher price to the big sex toy types. Since then the evolution seems to be all this temp control and wattage changing stuff rather than just allowing me to get a decent vape and perhaps variable wattage as that is easy enough for me to cope with.

On the subject of Kanger Subtanks, has anyone managed to cure a leak from the air holes?

Just started using ceramic coils in mine but leaking even worse than before!

Thats why I suggested the Joyetech eGo AIO. It looks pretty simple, nothing to test your tech abilities. Mouth to lung. Check about 4:05 for the vapour production. Here is the review I was talking about https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3U4NukXZ2tM

For £11 its got to be worth a go

The other thing I thought about is perhaps you are expecting too much from the flavours. You sound like you want the flavour really strong to knock your socks off. I have a couple that will do that but most I find are quite subtle, I can taste them but they are not overpowering.

If you bought any of that Menage a Trois I mentioned a few pages ago, use the 0.5 ohm coil at 35W with the biggest airflow and you'll be able to go direct to lung and produce enormous clouds of vapour.

It's generally not a problem with the vertical coils or the RBA (providing you wick it properly) but the Ni coils and the ceramic ones have been a bit of a hot topic with regards to leaking.

To be honest I don't mess around with temp control. Get the instruction manual out once find out how to turn it off and be done. When you by a Kanger coil for your Nebox it will have the suggested wattage range written on it. Pick somewhere in the middle and have a vape. Most people probably don't keep changing wattage up and down all the time. Mine are set to 17W on a 1.2ohm could and have been like that for at least a year.

Or you could go to a vape shop and ask them to set it up for you.

But as he says himself he is a "non-direct lung vaper".

[Rawwr]

My bad, I thought he was the other way around

[TazR6]

My new new. IT came with an iSub G. I didn't like it, so I put my Nautilus Mini on, and ordered a Nautilus which should be here today.
Upgraded from an eLeaf iStick 30w that has done me proud. I fancied spmething with (much) better battery life, and that would take a bigger tank.
Seeing as blue is the best color in the world, as soon as I saw this Innokin Itaste MV3P0 Pro, I knew I was getting it.



Edit to apologize for the size. I do not know how to make it smaller.

I picked up an isubg as I got pissed off with the kanger temp control coils leaking. Really like it, can't imagine a scenario that would cause it to leak.

However, longer term readers will remember my utter fanboi nature when it comes to the billet box, sadly retired to the drawer as it doesn't support tc.

Well, they've finally updated it!

Gonna have to wait out the f5 wars for a couple of months no doubt, but one will be mine...
