anyone here own the SMOK TFV4 mini? I'm considering this tank and would love to hear some of your thoughts about it.
Don't own the Mini but the Mini is just a 22mm version of the normal, smaller tank other than that no differences (same coils and everything).
For the TFv4, love it, but quick Pros/Cons as far as I'm concerned.
Pros - premade coils are simply absurd, large RBA decks, and tons of coil options
Cons - premade coils are simply absurd, wicking can be a bit tricky, premade coils are expensive, and premade coils eat a ton of juice.
To elaborate, obviously I put the same thing for the first of both. I do that because personally I find it a con, but I could easily see people considering it a positive thing. It's a huge amount of juice, large cloud, but it's a bit airy for me, even closing down the air intake it's still not the experience I enjoy. That's in reference to the quad coil mainly (I killed my triple really quick with this gunky delicious juice). However the RDA decks are amazing, running a dual 26g twisted setup at .2 ohms with 95w right now and it's a nice thick big cloud of awesomeness. That said when wicking it you have to get it right, not enough cotton and you're gonna get some leaks, not too hard to get it right, but then you also have to replace said cotton somewhat regularly otherwise you'll start filling a tank and boom it flows out the bottom.
Basically it's a tank I'd highly recommend if you're willing to put in a little work, OR if you want large clouds and aren't concerned by the density as much. If neither of those sound like you're preference from what I hear there are better options. For me it's suiting my needs perfectly. I can go with a dual or single vertical coil and get a very nice vape out of it, or I can ramp up the ohms a bit (.5-1ohm) and toss it on one of my sleeker mods for a more on the go experience. If I just want some massive tasty clouds I can toss on that quad coil and let it rip at 140w without any issues. One word should be associated with this tank, and that is versatility. Whatever your preference, with a little work you can make it do what you want. And if you're looking for sheer power, well it has that with it's premade coils, just be aware that it's on the airy side and your juice reserves will dwindle quickly.
Anyways, for me it's absolutely perfect, but I can see why many prefer something like the Crown. I'll be picking up a Mini as soon as I get my new wire in if I don't hear about an actual release date for the black before then (fasttech is anything but fast).
