Hallo everyone. I am Vaping now for about 6 months. Started with n Vape 3 from Vape for Africa. Then after 2 months decided to upgrade I just want something that could give me nice flavour and cloud production. Also in that time stumble upon a Video from Amsterdam Vape. So this is what I brought. eVic VTwo Mod, KangerTech Toptank. 2 batteries, charger, cotton bacon,26ga wire and bottle of Trinity juice. After 6 hours the Toptank did not work. Went back to Vape store something with pin. They had to order new one. Now I am in 2 minds the Toptank had great reviews and what sold it for me is you can build coils and buy coils. Did I made right choice or would i rather have went with the Serpent
Did i made the right choice.

Hi Dolfie, the toptank is a great choice and I believe there are few forum members that did not at some point in time own one and loved it. Get to know your personal tastes and preferences, and then upgrade to what is more to your liking.
Some of us like rda's, some rta's others rdta's. Took me a year to figure out that rdta's are what is best suited to my vaping style. (A year and a deposit on a small car...). In any case, you will still chop and change your devices many times and as a first choice, the toptank is the best you could have made.
Enjoy!
Thanks for the replies. I don't want Springbuck colours in Vape. Just want to Vape something that will be better than smoking. Haven't build a coil yet but is now on the DIY waggon. Have maid the following so far
Mustard Milk after 6 days it taste like pepper well they said let is steep for at least 14days. The other one was from Amsterdam Vape Strawberry, Graham cracker clear an Bavarian Cream smells awesome but the taste not there quit maybe because I use one coil for almost 2 weeks now
You are one of the few of us that taste Pepper with the TFA Vanilla Bean Ice cream concentrate. Try using recipe without TFA Vanilla Bean Ice cream. There's a good amount of recipes posted on this forum which are tried and tested.
Thanks
@Dolfie don't sweat it boet, I had the same thing with Mustard Milk, ended up pouring it down the toilet. Vbic is completely vile to my palate.
A real little winner of a recipe is monkey milk, TPA Banana Creme 5% and TPA Caramel 2%. Shake n vape.
I will definitely try that one. Here in Mbay juice is expensive so I have to get this right. I work out for 300ml of DIY juice it works out about R232 if your recipe consist of 10% concentrate and R264 if you use 14% I work it out on TFA flavour. I have tried Daragon Fruit 12% and Bavarian cream at 6% not liking it at all work on 70/30 VG/PG Nic strenth at 3.
Dolfie I would suggest sticking with the toptank. When I started with building coils I started with subtank and the rbav2 build deck, same one one that the toptank has. It gave me excellent service for a long time. its a great starter tank, easy to build on with great flavor. feel free to pm for building tips on the subtank

Thanks n million. Hope to get tank this comming week.
A pepper taste can be from over loading the nic.
Toptank is a great starter mod And a nice draw. once u master building u can upgrade . its a revolution 
I adjust my Nic to 3 but I will give that juice another 10 days then its Vape or drain. I must go and get a new coil tomorrow this one I am vaping on now taste like wire.
Thanks hope to get it this week. Got a Wismec from Vape store and in 2 weeks I have gone true 2 coils already maybe that's wy everything taste like metal.Toptank is a great starter mod And a nice draw. once u master building u can upgrade . its a revolution
Stock coils are kak . u have to learn to build and u will see the true worth of vaping

You should learn to coil.It will save you money in the long run and you can build different coils to suit different vapeing situations.You can go online and also learn how to rebuild coil heads.With the cash saved on coils you can buy tanks and mods etc.
It seems my tank will be arriving on Friday the latest. Then the coil building can start. Have tried my first Diy Recipe
1. Strawberry Ripe 5%
2. Bavarian cream 3%
3. Graham cracker clear 2%
Taste like horse shit and that's with new coil. I am to afraid to try the Mustard Milk that's still waiting for me.
Anybody that wants to stop smoking, I can highly recommend this recipe. Next week I will tackle the Mustard Milk but honestly I am afraid of that one.
Told you already, make monkey milk, it's a sure fire winner.
Brother I am in Mbay have to order alot off concentrates first. But I have put yours in my DIY file. Like its going now yours will be the only one in the file. Well let me rather go fishing now. Tomorrow is another day
Why did I not join this forum a month ago. But I am committed must first crawl before you can run.
I'm of a different opinion , get the best kit you can afford and start running
. You'll end up wanting more anyway and wanting to upgrade why not just start with the best. I know different vaping styles blah blah but to be honest you most likely won't be able to sell the Toptank for much second hand (sorry I speak the truth....) so you end up having to fork out more cash .... which you could've spent on concentrates. Oh and get a dripper .... good for tasting juices in .... All the countless bucks that went into this tank and that tank and this RTA is a waste of time (and money) IMO , get the best tank for YOU and stick with it .....
Get a Serpent Mini 25 , some CBV2 and some Nichrome 24 lots of videos on wicking etc , took me a while but got it right. I also thought 'bleh it's all hyped up BS' till I got it right and it's the best flavour tank I've used to date .....
There , the cat is loose amongst the pigeons ....
Thanks hows the XL Limitless Tank. Saw n guy with it this morning has the same mod as II'm of a different opinion , get the best kit you can afford and start running

@Dolfie I agree, jump straight to the Serpent Mini 25mm. Best value for your buck, and a nice variety with the choice of a single or duel coil building deck. I only have one tank dedicated to bought coils, I am moving everything else to RTA and RBA's. Big savings and heaps of fun to build and wick.
