Searching new sub-ohm tank: need your advice

[OzoreXS]

As long as they can sort out the sliding top from the M Pro then the M Pro 2 could be a winner.

Yeah, absolutely.
Lets see if they add full metal, single colored and not psychodelic models to the collection.

I like the mental colours!! All everyone does these days is black, gun metal, SS and then maybe a Red or a Blue. I want to see more utterly fucking bonkers colours, give me something that looks like a Jackson Pollock over SS any day.

Update. Im going nuts with this.

As the Polar still not at home, I just cant stop reading, learning, finding, comparing... and I have hit rock bottom.
I've gotten drunk on information.

This is where I am right now.

Let me explain that new picture.
-Left side, M Pro/M pro 2 coil compatible tanks. Lets call them "M Pros"
-Lower right row, Falcon compatible tanks. Lets call them "Falcons"
-Upper right row, coil independent tanks.
I managed to find all of them, even the oldest, at sale.

Facts:
I became a fanatic of DTL sub-ohm tanks. I would love to have one of each if I could. I mean, not the ones in the picture, but all of them
Coil compatibility is important for me; a coilhead may convert an average tank into something new and better. I like to try and test all crossed compatibility and find the headcoil that outperforms. Thats why Im mainly looking for that 2 big groups. This is my experience with other tanks, I like to try coils because each one is different and gives you a whole different vape experience in the same tank.

...OK, so whats the plan?
Finally Im getting 2 tanks. Instinct, guts and common sense tells me go for the M pros and the Falcons; but my Mr. Hide is demanding Valyrian or Intake (cant ignore, both seems great).

This is my dilema:
1) I can opt going for M pros and Falcons and make sure I will have supplies for long time. Choose one of each, for example Skynet Pro + Falcon King. Problem solved.
2) 1 independent + 1 M pro or Falcon. Hard to decide here.
3) 2 Independents, for example, the Valyrian and the Intake. And we will see. Risk for that tanks of becoming paperweights is there, in short term (no coil availability, no other brand manufacture compatibles).
4) Stop this madness by just getting the 2 cheapest of them.

I know I´m taking this too far LoL ... but I already went too far, Im in point of no return.

Its saturday night and Im bored as hell. Beer is not helping at all

Sometimes I wish I would put a bit more thought into buying stuff. I just bought the falcon 2 a few days ago and didn't really think about it only having one coil option. Thankfully it seems to be a very nice coil with great flavour so I'm happy with it, for now.

Quoting my own message.. I've been using this tank for two days. So there is a really tight slide fill on the falcon 2, it's so tight the bubble glass has sort of crumbled slightly on the lower o-ring when I opened it a minute ago, not cracked but it will probably develop into a crack... Still sealed and not leaking but wtf, that will probably ruin the pressure in the tank eventually I presume. Anyone else have a falcon 2?

I'm gonna have to buy some more bubbles now the 2ml tpd tube is a POS, but I may have to resort to using that...
Either that or it will be going on the classifieds very soon

I found that the glass spins freely unless you do it up really tight, so maybe I over tightened it. Seems a bit shite though for it to crack so easily.

The flavour from it is very nice though which has prevented me from giving up on it straight away

Hey thanks for your feedback mate.
Sorry to hear that, that Falcon 2 should be great... yeah maybe you over tightened it, but it sounds quite unusual. Buy it a proper non shit TPD bubble glass and enjoy it.

Despite the Falcon 2 was on my preliminar list, I´ve discarded it because having just 1 type of coil is a fucking joke, more because the tank is on the market since a while now, and worse if you look at the previous versions that has around 8 different types of coils (and many others, compatible, from other manufacturers)
Lets see if they -Horizontech- react soon, create some new great coils for it, and dont leave that tank die miserably. They are well known for the quality and flavourful the Falcon King coilheads are. I dont understand why they still dont make a move.

 

[PaoloFio]

Yeah hopefully they bring out more coils, but thankfully this sector one seems very good, seems to wick pretty good too in comparison to the geekvape ones, loads of bubbles after each vape. I've just ordered some spare bubble glass for it

Hi there folks

So I have a Vaporesso Polar mod coming home, the one from the last Vaporesso giveaway here, and I would like to match up it with a decent sub-ohm tank.

Dunno what color will it be... so it may become a decission point later.

I´m not an RBA guy, just a simple ass; I found my way with stock coils so I´m looking for something similar. As you can read on my signature, is what Im used to.

My options so far, considering it is 25mm max. base mod (AFAIK):

1) As I have TONS of coils in baby format, just buy another compatible tank. I like those coils a lot, so I wouldnt mind purchasing another tank.
My choices in no particular preference:
- Advken Owl
- Geekvape Cerberus
- Hellvape Fat Rabbit or Hellvape Hellbeast
- OBS Cube Tank
- Wotofo Flow Pro Subtank

2) A well known (...or at least popular) not compatible sub-ohm tank. Presumably, this ones are a step ahead in flavour.
- Freemax Fireluke 2 or the M Pro (thx guys for putting in into the game)
- Uwell Valyrian II
- Horizontech Falcon II
- Wotofo nexMesh Sub Ohm tank
- Geekvape Zeus Sub Ohm tank (not sure with this, as it says 26mm at the base. It may overhang too much)
- Vaporesso GTX tank 22 (im amazed by the amount of GTX coils but not sure it it will look too narrow)
- Augvape iNtake Subohm Tank (thx @richierich !)

Some final thoughts:
I know the Fireluke 2 coils are compatible with the Uforce ones. Not really interested on those Voopoos

Falcon 2 seems like it uses same coil format like the Wotofo nexMesh, can anyone confirm this?

Do you know about any other coil compatibility of the Valyrian 2 and the Geekvape Zeus? Seems its not likely

Hard to choose, the more I look the mod and the tanks, the more confusing. Matching the look is hard. Look of the Polar is very linear. what do you think?

Feel free to put your own recommendation over the table.

Thanks in advance and best regards!

Falcon King is the best sub tank I’ve used. Couldn’t get along with the Faclcon 2, The Zeus. At the moment I’m using the Intake sub and it’s quite shit in my opinion. It looks fine, not a lot of Flavor. The Clapton coils are a nice idea, and are better flavour wise, don’t last long though. the freemax tanks are fantastic as well

Out of interest, why didn't you like the falcon 2? I've been thinking of getting a falcon king aswell, so far I'm enjoying the falcon 2 apart from the bubble glass breaking so easily. The mesh pro too I'm considering that one too..

To me its just a downgrade from the Falcon King. The triple mesh coils for that are exceptional, i found the sector mesh just cool and muted. Its all subjective thoigh! The mesh pro is a brilliant tank too.
