Wanting a rebuildable tank, very confused

[dykealiscious]

So, I'm tired of my sometimes drippy, hard to draw, odd flavor producing kanger tanks. I have a nimbus and origen v2 for dripping and love them both. But I need a good tank.

I think I want a bottom coil tank, and it HAS TO HAVE GLASS if there's a clear window (I use a lot of citrus and other tank crackers). I'd love to get an authentic squape or rose, but let's face it, I don't have that kind of money and I tend to go clone. I've read thread after thread about squape clones and now I'm not so sure.

I'm a flavor junkie and I love clouds. I build no lower than .7 ohms, and like to hang between .8-1.3 typically. I have several mods including a VV (svd) that lets me fire at .9 and up (haven't tried it any lower). Since it's a tank, I'd like the upper end of juice capacity as well (3ml or greater), that's part of why squape is so attractive (and the non-conductive coating...but I hear there are issues on the clones).

So, given this is what I want, AND I'd like a pretty easy build (though the origen v2 is a bit tricky I do it fine), people start throwing ideas out there for me. I'm looking at winsmoke squape clone, taifun GT, the Aqua, Fogger V4......(primarily clones, so if you can recommend clones that are better than others I'd like that too). Too bad there isn't a rose clone yet.

Anyway....fire away. I could use your expertise on how these build, and options I haven't explored yet. Was going to do a dripper tank but changed my mind....I like my cotton and I hear they are a b*tch to wick sometimes on those dripper tanks.

a kayfun and quartz-tank replacement, (but it won't be happy in a pocket as orings slip).

THey exist, so do some research.

I have a Genesis RSST and a EHPro Kayfun 3.1. My favorite is the Kayfun. Mine came with a half polycarbonate and a full polycarbonate clear tube. I use the clear one. Polycarbonate is suppose to handle harsh juices, but I like Pyrex better. As Innocuous said, there are glass replacements.

I pocket carry my Kayfun with no problems, but I have had one drop or two come out the air hole from setting it on it's side. I think that came from the collector base into the air hole. Kayfun isn't foolproof against leaks, but it's a good RBA.

Cotton on a Kayfun is easy if you wind a straight coil using a drill bit, small phillips screwdriver, or a coil winder. Once you feed it through the coil you trim the loose ends and stuff them down beside the deck, making sure the cotton doesn't block the feed channels. Check out Rip Trippers on YouTube for good demos for Kayfun single and dual coils.

Here's Rip Trippers dual coil build on a Kayfun Lite. The KFL is pretty much the same as the 3.1, but there's no juice collector under the bottom and the 3.1 has an adjustable air intake, from what I hear. They both build the same.

Run, dont walk, over to 101vape and pick up the Kayfun 3.1 for $16. Best clone deal out there, and you'll have it in 2-3 days.
I have the Aqua, Fogger, KFL+, Taifun, and the very same KF 3.1 from 101vape.
Actually, I love them all (until my Taifun base shorted out), but if I had to choose, it would be Taifun>KF 3.1>Aqua>Fogger>KFL+.
Bear in mind, any of these will blow away a Kanger BCC, so you can't go wrong. Considering the draw, capacity, flavor, and build, the 101vape KF 3.1 is a steal!

You guys are awesome. Keep it coming. I have researched for weeks and this is helping

 

[dykealiscious]

What about some of these options that have the ceramic base that's really attractive to meet what is your experience with them and does it improve flavor and are they easy to build on

If you have a 26650 mod, check out the Big Buddha Kayfun Style RBA by EHPro at 101vape.
Mine will be here tomorrow, I'll tell you more after I get it built.

Please do. I've since gotten An authentic squape and a Russian 91% clone

Moved to Rebuildable Atomizer Systems from the Modding Forum - Tank Mods


The Modding Forum is for items that you made

If you have a Russian and SQuape, you should be good to go. You can get a glass replacement window for the SQuape at vaperev

Yup I got it used on the forums WITH glass installed. Used barely so its great. Took me multiple builds to get the wicking right and it was leaking like an m.f. come to find out the o ring wasn't installed on the 510 pin. Now I'm all set. Finally realized 1/16 bit wicks are just to small to prevent gurgling and learned a few tips on properly laying the wick in the channel, plus added a flavor wick and it never dry hits, gurgles or leaks any more. But jeez it was a pain to nail down.
