Relief from TFV16 drip tip hell

Hello All -

I was hoping to get some of your recommendations on tanks. Ive almost exclusively been using the smok TFV16 (TFV12 before that) tank for last couple of years with the triple mesh coils (Current mod is a gaur-21 with dual 21700 batteries) I make my own juice & haven't had a need to change this setup as it just hits really well & vape constantly at 95 watts.

However, the proprietary nature of their drip tips with options being so limited, has finally driven me to go a lil nuts, lol. I want to be able to just use common 510 or 810 drip tips which I know work on almost every other tank. Anyone whose used this tank, knows the headache of their exclusive drip tip issue.

I tried a couple other tanks from "top 10 lists" a while back but they were a complete waste of money as none hit half as good as the tfv16 with a triple mesh coil on it.

I would really appreciate anyone recommending a tank they use or have used previously, that hits as good or close to the tfv16, I mean that nice thick heavy sub ohm satisfying hit... I figured to buy a few of the ones ppl recommend here & finally free myself from smoks drip tip hell.

Thank you, much obliged...

Freemax pro
Thank you Coyote628. Freemax pro was on one of the top 10 lists & I did get one...

Gonna dig it out when i get home & give it a full try. You happen to know if the coil that comes with it is good enough or I need to grab another? Thanks again
 
I also use the fireluke 2
Oh ok & now that you mentioned it, I have to check which Freemax I have I figured I would order 3 or 4 tanks this week. Looking on Vaporfi, I see freemax M pro but also Freemax M pro 3. Is there a particular version you meant, or does it matter much?

Also on the fireluke, I added that one to my cart too, but now see its the fireluke 4, lol, damn so many diff versions. Thank you again.
Uwell Crown and Horizontech Falcon
Thanks Mordacai. Funny you mentioned those, so searching on the forums I saw many ppl recommend the Falcon which I added to my cart. Also a Uwell, but the Valyrian 3. Now i just saw the Crown on element vape, only $10 so I added to cart though I do see crown 3, 4, 5 also listed. Lol too many choices.

No worries @OpenUpShop, I did say ranges of both though as there's many different variants of them.

But there tanks with a decent reputation though, but the best option with any though is to check how easily you can get hold of coils. As don't want to be getting a tank that you have a really hard time getting them.
