Anyway...it doesn't look like I'll be able to pick up a new rig within my price range right now.

Just out of curiosity, what do you dislike about replaceable coil tanks? And isn't ego just the standard for the threads used?

I hope that, if I buy the iStick, the chargers I have will work...don't want to keep spending money, lol.

Many reasons:

1. higher cost to replace coil(s)/wick(s)

2. lacks flavor/vapor output a rebuildable is capable of (with the exception of the new aspire atlantis tank)

3. should the manufacturer ever go out of business or discontinue support for a tank I would be SOL on replacement coils of a replaceable coil tank where there will always be cotton available and kanthal/nichrome wire available to rebuild mine with.

4. no control over quality of a replacement coil vs building my own I have 100% control over the build quality.

as for ego: yes it is a thread standard. 510 is another thread standard. I use 510 thread tanks.

That is if you use the stock coils. I prefer to rebuild the heads.

I have no complaints of lack of flavor or vapor with my KPT tanks. :D

Kanger Pro Tank coils are easy to rebuild, and you can have all the control you want and more when rebuilding these coils. Or better yet, just order rebuilt twisted wire Tiger coil KPT replacement coils from Comp (Fadora Vapor). You can easily take out the old wick, dry burn, rewick and reuse these rebuilt coils for a ridiculously long time. :)

How long have been using yours for now Tam?

Easily over a month now on a daily basis. Still haven't needed to rewick yet, either. Yep. Quality control is alive and well at Fadora. :D

I'm really liking the Delta tank. It's equal to if not better than my Nautilus Mini.

Are you using the 16 or the 19?

As far as tank threading, ego threading is standard for smaller type tanks - like Evods and the same capacity thereabouts - otherwise, the standard is a 510 connector for larger tanks - your protanks, well, just about anything larger than an evod sized tank. I don't even use my evod tanks or my mini protanks anymore (all with ego connections), and SOME APVs don't come with an ego fitting, you have to get an 510 to ego adapter for ego threaded tanks to work with them.
