You can clearly lung inhale without difficulty
You can summon circles from the diaphragm below
You know which wattages/voltages are perfect for the flavour and cloud production
When you're wanting even more than the tank can give
You produce a room full of vapour
 
Thought I'd share my "how not to" with an RTA,should give some of you a chuckle.

Put a new coil and wick in the rebuildable deck of the sub tank mini,after a few toots it tasted burnt,meh!
I've not done the wicking properly me thinks,so I pull it apart and rewick and I'm pretty sure it will be 100% now.
Put the tank back together clean up a bit and invert the tank only to see all the juice running out of the airholes.Luckily I don't have it on the mod as I normally do.
Now whats wrong with this thing...............................ah ha,you have to remember to screw that thing back on the deck (the bit that forms the chimney)
Does that make me a master of disaster.
Now who else will own up to it:rolleyes:

Haha. Similar thing happened to me. Was in a hurry to leave for work and was about to slap in an OCC coil... needless to say, i forgot to put the OCC in and was then late for work anyways because i had to cleanup the mess.

:--) I'm so glad and relieved that I'm not alone. Minor (uhm...yes) difference is, I did this repeatedly whilst trying to find the sweet spot of rewicking - probably 6 times in total and 2 of these was consecutive :blush: :worried:

I thought I'd be the only one

It was right when I first moved from stock coils and I struggled to get the wicking just right between no leaks and no dry hits. It pretty much happened every single time when I was so excited that 'this time' seemed to be perfect and I just HAD to get the RBA base in the tank right now to experience vaping perfection. :dance: The subsequent mess and wanting to moer myself feelings :hit: was not conducive to the upkeep of these excitement levels :-(
 
You realize that it's nothing compared to a dripper and then replace it with one :p

Dude, I've deliberately started using a tank again to save on juice (use my drippers on weekends only or after a really good meal). If a 30ml lasted me 2 days I would rejoice. With the tank (Crius), it lasts me 3 days at least lol. I'm sorely considering dropping back down to the ST Mini and maybe it will last me 4 days.
 
My statement was about flavor. All tanks that I've used mutes the flavor. With a dripper you get full on flavor. There's nothing like it. That's why I have a squonker with a BF dripper on it. Tanks just don't do it for me.

....you consider selling all your other tanks and drippers and get another mastered tank!
Big thanks to @BigGuy from Sir Vape for my Serpent!
 
Agreed,

however, please try yourself a dual coil RDTA Bellus _ it has no muting of any taste.

I've been vaping long enough and have tried various tanks over my vaping journey. I don't need to try another. Nothing beats a dripper.

I had a Bellus. Its nice, but not spectacular. As @zadiac says, nothing beats the flavour of a dripper. The only RTA in my opinion that can SOMEWHAT compete with the flavour of a dripper is a Goblin mini (drippers chow juice for a reason). Get yourself a Velocity (or something simple like a Tugboat) to start out on and come and retract your statement afterwards :)

I don't think he needs to retract it :p I love tanks and drippers, the Bellus really does a great job on flavour - not far off of dripper builds... Just a small build area - makes it rather tough to nail great builds on!
 
Hi guys
