Help about choosing a suitable battery

Hello vapers, i am pretty new to this vaping world and i need an urgent help considering a battery issue,
Tomorrow i am planning to buy a subtank mini
so i am wondering if a classic battery like ego-c will make it work, actually i have 3 ego-c battery and i am not planning on buying a new one (like mvp 3 or smth) at least for the upcoming two months.
I will appreciate an answer before tomorrow or i will be waiting so long to get that subtank

a cheap way to run a kanger subtank is an eleaf istick 30w or 40wtc

if you go the subbox kit from kanger you have to at least get one 18650 battery which depending on the store or site then they are $6-12 for a good one like a samsung 25 r or lg he2
 
I appreciate your help guys, i think i will wait for the battery, problem is that i live in Tunisia, so i can't buy anything online(Int credit cards are not allowed here), and the batteries are a bit expensive here regarding our salaries, i've just returned from a store and the istick 30W was about 70$! but in the same time i was dumb enough to get the subtank mini (35$...), and by the way these prices are in an "underground" market, in regular shops they cost nearly the double of their actual value o_O

If you do decide to try the mini with your ego keep an eye on how warm the ego gets. If it heats up in your hand while using it it's trying to tell you that you're asking too much of it and to stop.

Well i think I'll wear safety glasses while vaping haha, thank you for the advise mate.
 
last question, i got a twist battery (3.2-->4.8), when i use it with the 1.2 subtank coil , should i go with the minimum voltage (3.2) or what?

Since even at 3.2V you are exceeding the generally accepted amp limit on an ego of 2.5A then putting as little stress on it as possible would be making the best of a bad idea. It really depends on the quality of the cell inside the ego and that's anybody's guess.
