That Kooper mini is a clone of the Sigelei ?
Looks like it to me, saying that cannot fault the Sigelei as it works great and has not missed a beat since I bought it.
It's completely different, Koopor are a subsidiary of Smok.

They gone done fked up anyway - included an upgrade port stating it could be done by the owner, now saying it has to go back to the vendor/dealer at your cost if you want the upgrade! Fuds.
That sucks by the time you post it etc not worth the bother.
Myself could do with another tc mod but not spending any more if can help it as have just took a hefty monthly payment for 3 years on a van a couple of months back.

Aye, long as you have a back up, then it's just a means to keep off the fags - other things take precedence to shinyitis.

I tend to keep my mods for a couple of months, buy a new one and sell the old one - I keep them in good nick and get a fair bit of the purchase price back; but I'm signed off for two weeks so used the saved fuel money for a new mod, "TPD is coming dear" smile

Anyone able to suggest some good & strong flavours? Fancy something fruity, Berries etc. Just got a new joytech with temp control and preceding it over my old 30w Tecc Curve.

Currently trying some twelve monkeys (though got a strong MG which kinda kills the flavour), space jam. Good ones in the past have been strawberry & cream, cinnamon dough etc but haven't used them recently.
For strong berry flavours I'd try 'the vial' blushing cherries or candied berries. Really good quality American eliquid. I use them in my kanger subtank on a 0.5 coil running 28 watts on an I stick & they are excellent.

Before I switched to DIY, the vial were my favourite juices. I found Island Bliss gunked coils quite a bit though.

Yeah they are quite thick liquids, my coils seem to be ok with them but I don't build my own. I do like to give the subtank a good scrub after they've been in though. Still a lovely vape though.

Looks like a 30W eleaf istick. Same size as the 20W but has the lip at the top so tanks sit better. Looks like the Kanger subtank mini version 1 with the single airflow. Looks like the standard coil not the RBA section. Exactly the same set up I have and use regularly. Oh and that is not a £100 set up.

Possibly a fake coil causing some issues, I have had a few so only buy from a reputable companies these days. Also no mention of where the juice came from. Reputable company or some market stall £1 bottle that someone knocked up in garage.

Just received my third Zample Box and it is right up my street. Only tried the Churros and Ice Cream before and it is a firm favourite.

That's a library pic mate, not the actual kit

He is so proud of his setup in that pic, reminds me a bit of John Wayne with his gun.

Not sure what that means.

I deleted the pic as I didn't want to look at it any more.

Yes sorry, couple of beers not thinking straight.

I have the eNVy 22 and it says ATHENA on the other side. It takes a Kanger Subtank mini no problems. Can't say I am a fan. It is a bit of a heavy bulky thing to hold. Never quite know how to hold it, seems natural to have the rounded part in your palm and fire it with your index finger but you have to watch you are not covering the airflow to the tank. I always feel I need my little finger under the mod as I feel it wants to drop out of my hand.

The best set up I use is the Kanger Subox or the 30w istick with a Kanger subtank on top.

Yes can see it being a bit bulky, the 17 just gets away with it for me and has been used daily for a couple of months now with the nano tank installed.
I use the 1 hole airflow on mine and fully screwed in the airflow just manages to stay visible and not get hidden, another cm and that would have been disaster.
Other little problem is the top of the tank sits below at the top so only way to unscrew it is by getting hold of the tank via the glass or below which is very irritating as there is not much leverage or via the drip tip however the kanger drip tip is so loose it cannot be done.
Way round it I have found is I have a very tight drip tip with 2 rubber washers http://www.gizmomod.co.uk/product-p/gm17_dt.htm and it sits in very tight so I twist the whole tank to screw and unscrew from the tip, also not a big fan of the kanger huge drip tips.

I don't have the nano but I assumed it was the same height just slimmer. The 22mm Subtank sits proud of the mod by about 2mm so even without the drip tip there is just enough to grip. I think the deal is to just screw it in enough to work, don't crank it down.

I like the huge drip tips but I direct lung inhale so I like an airy draw.

The Nano sits underneath in fact needs a longish drip tip, yes like you said I just finger tighten just enough.
Not convinced the Nano is as good as the mini however have never tried the occ in the mini so cannot realy compare.
Use the Kanger drip tip in the mini and it works fine but cannot cope with it in the nano.
