Mod and tank

[Thunderstroke]

Hi, I have used a standard vape-pen for about a year now, but want to try something else.

I have found :
Kanger SUBTANK-MINI clearomizer 22mm (Black)

Kanger KBOX MOD 200W
http://www.kangeronline.com/products/kanger-kbox-mod-200w?variant=9238762629

2 batteries

Is there anyting more I need to get before it is ready to start vaping?
(sorry for the dumb question but a pen is complete when you get it so no parts to build or add.)

Not to be a smartass. But that's quite a leap don't you think? 200w?

I understand the fascination with newer, bigger, and better. But you certainly wouldn't be unhappy with a 20-50 watt rig. At a much lower price.

But there's no harm in it I guess, it's not a bad price.

I would buy an extra set of batteries, and a charger. Don't simply rely on the USB to be the best method. And make sure those batteries are the safest/best you can afford.

I'm curious.
what made you pick that mod?
how are you lookin to vape?
what batteries did you get?


I would also get a charger and another set of batteries.
Also make sure you get good batteries

This is a better price, and still a lot more power than you'll need. And they're a good company to order from, I've used them before.

So is it 120w or 200w?

 

[f1r3b1rd]

200w from 2 batteries makes me nervous

 

[Teresa P]

The link I posted is a 120, to me just as good as 200 because it's that many less watts you aren't gonna use....personally I've never used over 85, but to each his own.

Hi all and ty for answers

Reason I wanna go over to something more advanced is that those I pens I have used dont have long batterytime.
And I actually dont like them. Its like smoking a hard rolled sigarette.
I'm still trying to quit smoking and a blinking pen is just frustration. So its then easyer to just smoke a sig.
I have got 3 pens but they are all from different brands, they look the same but treads and size are different so they don't mix together, also I broke one of them. ( http://www.onecig.no/category.php?id_category=10 ) they are also 40$ pr pen.

When I get something now, I want something that I can use when I want to use it, and how I want to use it.
Im kind of frustrated that I cant do what I want, which is quit smoking.

so a mod that
-give me a more visual reference (smoke)
-a mod that is more easy to vape from. Not like a hard rolled sigarettes.
-have the option to adjust if there is something Im not satisfied with.
About the watt I ment its better to be safe then sorry.

If you think a 120 w is more then enough its ok Im not a difficult person

http://vapenw.com/by-brand/kanger/kanger-kbox-120w-mod it is.

Then I need the rest. Is the subtank I suggested ok?
Is there anything I need more of?
I took a research on the batteries I have (nitecore 3100mah 3,7v 18650.) but think I have to get something else.(I use them in Flashlights)
So suggest batteries to pls. I guess I can use the same charger I have already?
ty.

First of all, please before you get into messing with higher power, do some research on ohms law and battery safety. Also please DO NOT USE THOSE BATTERIES,
if you are going to get a dual battery mod get 2 sets of batteries so that you can rotate them. Also get a decent charger-xstar luc 4 or nitecore would be my first recommendations. For batteries go to liionwholesale.com and get wither Samsung 25r or Sony vtc5 batteries.

Now, that tank would be fine but, I think going from a pen to it, is going to be a huge leap. you're going from sucking a goofball through a garden hose to a rushing river of vapor.
I tend to send people to sweet-vapes.com for an aspire triton and triton 1.8 ohm coils as a healthy step up. that's a good mouth to lung open vape, then if you want even more you can switch to the triton 0.4 ohm coils for a big wide lung hit, its a tank that you can grow with if you want or stay with the mouth to lung flavor style.
-I recommend that because you are only investing in 1 tank to vape multiple styles. If you don't like the 1.8 you're only out 11$ for coils instead of 20-30$ for a tank,

For a mod.... I dont know anything anout those, but I'm more of a DNA and innnokin fan. I won't speak to it because of that, allot of people have spoken highly of it, but also theres the vtcmini for around 30-40$ that does 75w and will serve you very well.

Dont worry those Nitecore batteries is staying in the flashlight . Not going to be used for vaping.
I had a car-battery go bang once so I learned my lesson not to play with batteries then.
4 samsung 25r Batteries is on the orderlist pr now
Also it is the nitecore charger I already have.
Shipping is almost more then the items I buy so I'm trying to get all from the same place.
Doesnt the kanger subtank mini have the same options as the triton?
pls explain Im noob.

1 Kanger kbox 120W
4 Samsung 25r


Is there anything else I should get or need or have 2 of?

Sounds like you're in good shape with that last list, @Thunderstroke. I like the Subtank Mini over the Triton for a couple reasons - first is tight airflow, from almost as constricted as an eGo pen-type you're used to to medium-open. This way you can keep the vape you're used to while experimenting with more airflow without going all-out in case you decide that's not for you. If you open the Kanger up all the way and decide you still want more, there are better direct-lung tanks out there.

Second, the Subtank Mini kit comes with an RBA head, which you can use if you ever decide to try your hand at building your own coils. Not sure if the Triton has the same or if you've got to buy one separate.

Good call on the Kanger 120 - I've got a couple on order myself. The reason we shied away from the 200 is that you can really only get about 150 watts out of two 20A batteries like the Samsung 25r, you'd need 30A cells like a Sony VTC4 to push the full 200 watts and for most people (including virtually everyone stepping up from an eGo), 200 watts is just stupid too much. The tanks you're looking at will be at home between 15-40 watts, so you're not going to come close to the top end of the range.

Moving this over to the Regulated sub, since it's a bit more fitting...

Nice, with the moving of the post, its always easyer to find things when you searches the right topics.
Happy to see that Ive got a setup. Should I then go ahead and order?
No more needed? Sorry for asking that a bunch of times.

 

[Teresa P]

Good juice and you'll be ready to roll.

 

[Thunderstroke]

Thats already been ordered frum uk.
Honey&milk
Unicorn milk

 

[africamonk]

Get some extra coils while you are at it.

 

[CorallineAlgae]

Just make sure to drop your nicotine level on your ejuice with that setup. That tank will turn a lot more ejuice into vapor with every puff than any pen style vaporizer so you will still get plenty of nicotine. I wouldn't put anything higher than 6mg nic in a Subtank but some people can use 12mg. Lower nic ejuice tastes better anyway.

Well...

This.

And this. I was on 6, sometimes 12 mg with my low-power mods and old-style clearomizers, quickly dropped to 3 and sometimes 6 when I switched to more powerful gear and then dropped the 6 completely to go with 3 all the time...

 

[Thunderstroke]

Ok, ty all again, I do see the juices I ordered might have to much mg, but Ill try to get some juice with no nic to thin it with. It was good you said this couse the ordered one was 18 mg.
Its all ordered now, and all I have to do is wait. Ordered some extra coils to.
If I need other juices Ill try to get that later.

Hi all.
I have now recieved my vapingset, thanks to you ppl's advises and help.

Kangertech kbox 120w
Kangertech subtank mini v2
(new coils 1,2) 5 pack
and 4 Inr18650 samsung 25 r

I have seen at some forums that the 0,5 occ coil that is "preset" on the subtank that they poke a hole trough the coil.
see:
https://www.reddit.com/r/electronic_cigarette/comments/30p38z/kanger_occ_coils_constantly_burning/

Right from the start I find the mouthpiece something I dont like, Is there anything like the Innokin rotatable drip tip that can be used on the tank?
