All sorts of coil interchange options, tfv8, V12, eLeaf Melo 25 RT, and now Sense Blazer with ceramic option. V12 now has a 24 coil or so I saw, but as you said, the 0.1 doesn't wake up until about 130w. I hope the tfv8 and Sense coils will bring better flavor at 100-120w for my V12, if anyone has tried that? Looks like the V12 is a boat anchor on the market at this point. Last month, I thought I got a good deal at $29 at a B&M, and now it can be found online for half that amount.

There are other upcoming options for high wattage, such as the Doge subtank, Geekvape Illusion, and the already exisiting but expensive Vaperz Cloud sub ohm tank. The Doge has caught my attention, looks like can swap 2 to 6 ml, rebuildable factory coils, etc. Now I just need the right mod for something like that. So much for August 8th slowing things down.

Although the TFV8 and V12 coils have identical outside dimensions, they are not really interchangeable. TFV8 coils have a thicker wall to thread to the chimney. The V12 chimney seal is just a bit to large in diameter to go into the top of the TFV8 coils. You might be able to force it but I wouldn't as something will get stuck or break eventually.

The Dogetank looks awesome. It looks like the perfect tank for the way I prefer to vape. Can't wait till mine gets here as my favorite setup for flavor has been the Tobeco Supertank 25mm with a Eleaf .25 ohm NC coil and their wide bore replacement drip tip. The Dogetank looks like it might be the perfect compromise between that and the TFV8 which I use when I am in the mood to swap batteries and re-fill my tank all day long.

So who has the v12 and how is it , I have the v8 and mini and just saw the v12 on ecig.com for 12 bucks but 20 for coils , if the tfv8 coils or the v8 coils fit the same it may be Worth a pick up but with 3 beasts 2 baby's and 2 big baby's I wonder if it is just a waste ? Any input would be welcome and appreciated

I have it. Got it almost two weeks ago. I'm still using the original coil and it still tastes great. I'm using the triade 250 on it. I've got the tfv8 and the baby beast and it's bigger version, few uwell tanks, herakles is my favorite, and even the v12s predecessor the v8, and several rtas and rbas.

It took me a while to get used to it because the vape is hot. I can do 200 on my smok but this is a different story. It probably has to do with all the coils in it. I typically only run it at 115 and that seems to be my sweet spot. But I'm putting the temp up more because it seems to be getting better but maybe it's about to go out. Flavor is still on point too. I've probably ran close to 100ml of juice through it too.

Vapor production is so thick and you can cloud out an area in no time. Flavor is great too and because of the vapor the taste does a great job of lingering. It's greatest con is coupled with its best part. It can get hot, almost burn yourself hot even when I vape at higher watts, but the drip tip is so amazing you could never tell. It has been getting loose though.

Overall I would say this has the flavor, at least the ones I've tried, of my herakles plus and the vapor production of the new smok tank. This thing is great but coils are expensive. I also bought it on sale at ecig and I've bought many items from them. I got it in black of course :) I would highly recommend it. been using it exclusively.

For 12 bucks it's a great tank. I can but the rba deck for like I bucks as well so u don't have to keep buying coils for it. Like I say in my review the only con of the tank is its bested by the tfv8.
