Seriously though. This blows my atlantis 2, attic, herks, and TCT tank out of the water. 3 coils, top fill, 40-130w. Tge flavor is astounding, it's pure, it's delicious, and it's produce really good vapor. Tested it for 10 minutes at 140 with no dry hits or burnt taste, 100w with my juice (local shop, 70vg-30pg mix) it keeps up really well and it's about spot on with the best flavor. Of course all juices will have better taste at higher or lower watts. No leaks, left it in my car with temps at 120-130 throughout the day. Comes with 1 (pre-installed) 3 coiled coil (0.2 ohms) a band (as seen in first picture) and an extra silicone cap for the top fill.


Thanks for the review. I have been trying to decide between this and the new Triton. After reading this I am going to go ahead and pull the trigger on this and order one. Thanks!

I'm going to tell you guys this now so you don't make the same mistake I did. If it is in your pocket put the rubber band around the top of your tank to keep the lid from opening, yes, it bumped against something and opened in my pocket, granted im in sport shorts today and not my normal cargo shorts but the band will keep it closed. That's my only complaint at the moment with the tank

Thanks for the tip. Interested in knowing how long the coils are lasting you? Days as well as mls vaped. Thanks again.

So far I've gone about 5 days without any burnt or dry hits. No flavor loss either. I vape about 5mls a day, at most is 10mls. Which has been twice so far

Eh, I switch back and forth from my arctic and atlantis 2. The TFV4 is hella nice, and could in fact replace all your tanks, but I still prefer other ranks as well cause at about 75w in the TFV4 it's performance isn't as good, where as the atlantis 2 is great at 75w and my arctic is perfect at 55-60w.

I like the Atlantis V2 as a All day Tank, it does the job right and isnt crazy in any skill, the TFV4 is x2 in all skills(including juice consumption) and isnt suited for a all day every day tank. Buy the two and have it all I guess.

Agreed. My atlantis is hands down a grey all day, never gets too hot, and flavor is always great. The TFV4 can get pretty hot at 100w but never gets too hot per say, of course it's hotter than the atlantis 2, but the flavor can some times be overwhelming IMO. it's a higher wattage tank, I don't care if you can fire it at 40w, because it's not comparable at that wattage. About 80w is when it starts to get really good, I haven't ran enough juices through it to make a more logical argument for it, but from what I do know, it's spectacular, but it's gets tiring/old after a few hours. Why? Couldn't tell you as of yet as it's only been 8-9 days owning the tank.

I'm sticking with my Atlantis V2s. Don't have the bucks or I would try a few others like Starre and Silo.

No matter where you go, take your Vape!

After seeing that Smok TFV4 my wallet regrets coming to this thread..... going to try and resist.

Got my first sub ohm tank just 3 months ago, the Arctic and wow was I impressed. The only thing that I didn't like was how it went through juice, the bacon lips if I was chain vaping and how inconvenient it was to take on the road as I would run dry if I had to go more than 30 minutes away.

A friend of mine was raving about his Kanger Sub tank and since they had the Plus V2 version out with 7 mils capacity I decided to pick one up to use on the road. Was pretty disappointed at first as I couldn't go higher than around 17 watts if I was chain vaping without getting nasty dry hits. I found a video on youtube to alleviate the dry hits problem and it really helped the situation, still doesn't chuck like the Arctic but it was satisfying. Here is the youtube video I used in case anyone else is having a problem with dry hits:

Oh silly me when I thought I was done buying anymore sub tanks. Saw the deal on vapor joe's blog about the deal Yeti vapes was having, OBS T-VCT top filling sub tank with juice control and 120 ml of juice for $40, the deal was too good to pass up since I already liked Yeti's juice line. The things that really attracted me to the OBS was not having to remove the tank from your device to fill it up. I also loved the juice control as I would get juice in my mouth with the Arctic if using 50/50 blends. The fact that the OBS is about 1/4" taller than the Arctic but holds twice the amount of juice was just icing on the cake.

The Arctic is best performer of the bunch if you want to chuck clouds and run at higher watts. For me the Arctic works best right around 30 watts with the .5 ohm coils, I can run higher watts but this sucker gets hot and I like to chain vape. The OBS can chuck some decent clouds at 30 watts but I actually prefer it at around 25 watts with .5 ohm coils. Even at 20 watts the OBS puts out some dense clouds, it definitely beats the Arctic in cloud production at 20 watts, the Arctic just likes to run hot. The Kanger is the least amount of cloud production of the bunch, I just took 3 drags at 30 watts and the last 1 was a little dry. I generally run the Kanger at 20 watts to prevent the dreaded dry hit.

Flavor wise there all pretty close, I would give the nod to the OBS though as I can still get dense clouds at 20 watts and the vape is cool. The Kanger does have good flavor as well, maybe a little better than the Arctic but then again I love running the Arctic hot, it is the hot rod of the bunch.

Overall the OBS is my favorite tank for the way I mostly vape. The filling is by far the easiest, it is a cool vape and the tip never gets more than just warm and aside from a little condensation I never get juice spit back if I am running hot. I have been running on the same coil for more than 3 weeks now with the OBS and no indication of it needing a change anytime soon. I went through 3 coils with the Arctic in the first month but that was mostly my fault as I like to run it hot and with how it burns though juice I suffered a lot of dry hits.

Both the Arctic and OBS are great tanks and they will both be in my rotation for awhile. The kanger is the tank I will take with me on the road when I am running out the door and can't remember were I left the OBS. The Kanger is a nice tank but compared to the other 2 it falls short.

Now I have to try and do a jedi mind trick on myself to forget about the Smok TFV4!

Here is a size comparison of the 3 tanks, note that the OBS is slightly taller than the Arctic but holds 6 ml compared to 3 ml, this is mainly due to the top filling design.

I also got my OBS with the Yeti deal, liked it so much I bought another. Luckily Yeti is my favorite juice supplier so that worked out great. Yeti Stashu is my ADV, and I'm running real low, so I might get another OBS bundle. No such thing as too much of a good thing!

Never tried Stashu, sounds really good, will have to give it a try. Tried RTI Papa Style on my last order, damn is that god stuff.

The OBS really is a great all around tank, if it could be cranked as hard as the Arctic it would be damn near perfect.

Yep, I am jealous.... Luckily I guess I missed out on the flash sale Joe posted this morning on this monster, would have been hard to stop my finger from hitting the add to cart button. The replacement coils are crazy expensive though, the link vapor joe listed this morning says 44.95 for 5 replacement coils, that is never happening for me.

ohhh, I thought you were talking about the coils for the Smok TFV4 were available for a lot cheaper. You can pick up Arctic coils for around $11 in a 5 pack, $14 for the OBS and around the same for the Kanger. If the TFV4 stays in the 30 to 40 range for 5 then I don't see ever picking up that tank unless the coils last for a couple of months.

In the pic it looks like you have the Smok TFV4 though, very nice selection of tanks by the way, that's gonna be fun.

I ordered few days ago Vapor dna, out of stock now, Smog had best pricing also now put of stock but might be worth wait. My TFV4 arriving today, coils appear to be very expensive, mostly planning on using rebuildable unless going on trip or messing around. I gotta quit ordering stuff as it comes out lol.

For anyone interested in sig elite tank. The kanthal coils are nothing special but the NI200 with 6 juice ports is pretty god damn good. I'm vaping mine 55w at 520 degrees. Chucks like a three alarm fire and taste is awesome.
