SUBTANK WARS

Finally - one of my two crowns arrived (the other one has been sitting as a PO in Illinois for a week saying 'exception').

Ok, this one might be it. So far one whole tank and NO leaking (that's a first for me). Excellent flavor, excellent vapor (not that I care about that). You can mtl or lung hit. Only thing is you have to crank up the watts and it gets hot - so I can't chain vape the way I sometimes do! But so far I've tried both the 0.25 and 0.5 coils that come with it. I know lots of people prefer the 0.25, but I'm not seeing a huge difference yet.

Only bad thing is that this is not a tank you can take little discrete puffs from out in public - and I'm not sure I could vape it in my car and see out the windshield, so I guess the subtanks will still have a place LOL

I've got this 0.5 ohm coil cranked up to 80 watts with 80% VG (DIY), and it can clearly go higher (but it would be pretty hot - for me)! Not a dry hit in sight! Oh, and my juice is at 4mg - I might have to lower it or vape less...

Try a different drip tip. I prefer one with a delrin base. Although I did take a gamble on a tip from fasttech & got lucky. This tip is freaking superImageUploadedByTapatalk1442532164.782300.jpg

Did you get the RBA head too @AmandaD? i keep considering the crown, but will want to use the RBA head, and not had to good of luck with RBA heads with the subtanks (except kanger mini) OBS is good till you get half way through juice and then the rest pours out, and can't get the wicking right on the smok TVF4 either.

The RBA head is with the one stuck in Illinois - dying to try it, but I guess I'll have to wait on that!

I did put on a different drip tip - I have some onyx/jade type ones I bought from Vapor Beast which are my favorite of all time! It doesn't heat up - just that the vapor is pretty freaking hot at 90 watts!

Yes, my OBS rba head does the same thing, which makes the tank pretty useless to me!

Yes same for me, I emptied it this week and washed it out to go in the draw, great looking tank, just doesn't work great with the RBA.

LOL I'm just playing - likely go back down to 60 watts when I'm done (now trying out 100 watts LOL)

Excuse me while I go recover from too much nic...

Damn girl I can't take the .5 much over 60 watts. Too hot for the devil lolol. My sweet spot is 53 on the .5 and 65 on the .25. So it's a winner for u?

Definitely! I put the .25 coil on the D2 at 60 watts and it's running beautifully. I think this is the only tank I have (and I have many) that doesn't leak, even when it gets low!

I'm totally on love with mine. No leaks here either. I actually like the ss clils,better than any tc vape. The RBA once you get it has 2 ss Coils you will love too

Ya my crown doesn't leak either, a nice change from my subtonic Plus witch is almost guaranteed to leak when the fluid level gets low. My arctic never leaks either though, so that's not new for me.

Been very impressed with the Crown, ordered 2 Black ones the other week, ordered another silver yesterday for 16 something, seeing Ni coils 7.50 4pack. Have one RBA head, need another soon. Works well with single coil, happy with that. Probably keep Goliath V2 and Subtank mini black in rotation retire a bunch. On edge with Zephyrus, started good giving me headache recently. Maybe keeping TFV4 in, unsure as not buying expensive coils and RBA is hit or miss at times.

I want to thank everyone in this thread for taking their time to post about all the various tanks.

Because of this thread I have bought a Super Tank Mini that pairs great with the IPVD2 for real pocket size convenience.
I also own 2 Arctics and a Triton (and have owned an Atlantis and 2 Kanger Mini).
They will all be sold / given away (except for the STM due to tiny size) because........

I am now part of the UWell Crown Fan club...Wow! This Crown is really the King!
The design is simple and effective with easy peasy top fill (unlike the overdesigned Triton with a weird deep top fill)
The machining is tight, the micro knurling is a nice touch, airflow is whatever you want...Tons of flavor and clouds....
AND the coils taste descent with no break-in (unlike those damn Tobecco coils 1/2 tank of shit taste)

Again, I can't TANK all of you enough for steering me to this King Crown. I still may get a TFV4 but for now, just WOW.

This is def one of the best most informed threads I have been involved with. Have learned alot and it has saved me from purchasing tanks that would have disappointed me as well. I second the thanks for the many contributing members to this awesome thread

Well after reading all the reviews I order the Crown and all I can say is OMG!! It has flavor for days and the clouds are huge. Only minor "gripe" is that it drinks juice like crazy, my days of buying 15ml bottles are over.

I just got the Crown in black today and it is awesome. I was using the herakles and the Crown beats it in every way. The flavor and vapor production is outstanding. I'm using the .25 coil.

I just wish every TANK maker would keep up with demands and technology

I would have no need for another tank if vapeston made a dual coil rba deck, TI and SS coils for the maganus. Hell even the tfv4 with its 11 different coil options doesnt have SS. Why do these guys not just do it all

Just bought a Kayfun V4 26650 clone. 21.95 shipped to me. The beauty & engineering I can't pass up. Just a joy to have. There like Ferrari's for poor people. :)

Ill tell you this.... (And I've said this to quite a few ppl) if you get one your other tanks are gonna get upset with you

Lol, ehhh, I rarely use a subohm tank and with what I have invested in the atlantis platform(eclipse, silo beast) I'm sticking with triton coils(or coils that fit an ATLANTIS). Normally I either use an RDA or RTA, the subohm tanks are for days I'm feeling menstrual. Lol

I have the silo too lol I thought I was all set. Then I got the crown. I'm dying to get another. It's the little things that do it.

Ok so being subborn as I am I refuse to give up on the ni200 crown coils. First 2 sucked total ass. Put the third on in today and total tc flavor heaven. I now know why those of you who had a good experience with them feel as you do. So know I'm loving every coil configuration this awesome crown offers

I put a Ni coil in last night - mine works fine!

This is absolutely the best tank I own. And the only one that doesn't leak when I really chain vape, or when it gets low. Flavor is outstanding, and I'm tempted to sell every other tank I own:p I still need to try out the RBA though!

Totally agree. Just ordered a,second yesterday n Prob will get a third next week. These are outstanding with any coil you put in it.
