Vape Tank FAQs

What is a vape tank?

A vape tank is a crucial part of any vape kit, designed to hold the vape juice that creates a nicotine or nicotine-free inhalation. Usually designed from materials like glass or stainless steel, the tank features a chamber where the liquid is stored, along with a coil that acts as the heating element to turn the liquid into vapour.

In addition to holding e-liquid, vape tanks often include a mouthpiece for inhalation and a mechanism for refilling the tank when the liquid runs low. Many vape tanks come with adjustable airflow systems, allowing users to customise their vape production.

What is the best tank for a vape?

When considering the ideal tank for vaping, several factors come into play that can significantly enhance your experience. The best tank for you will depend on your personal preferences, such as the type of vaping you enjoy; whether it's mouth-to-lung or direct-to-lung vape styles. A high-quality tank should offer compatibility with a variety of coil options to suit different wattages and vaping styles.

Brands that are well-regarded in the vaping community such as Smok, Geekvape and Aspire tanks often provide accessories that not only perform well but also come with a range of features such as airflow control and sliding caps to refill with your favourite vape juice.

How long should a vape tank last?

A well-maintained vape tank can last anywhere from a few weeks to several months. The durability of the vape tank depends on how frequently you use it; the type of e-liquid you choose and how well maintain the tank.

For instance, using thicker e-liquids can lead to quicker buildup of residue, which may require more frequent cleaning or the replacement of vape coils. Additionally, the quality of the tank itself plays a crucial role in its longevity. Higher-quality tanks made from durable materials tend to withstand wear and tear better than cheaper alternatives.

How many puffs from a 2ml tank?

A 2ml vape tank usually delivers about 600 puffs. However, this amount can change due to factors such as how you vape, the resistance of the coil and the type of e-liquid used. Whether you use a high VG e-liquid with a thicker consistency that creates more vapour or a thinner high PG e-liquid for a stronger throat hit eats into how much juice you use in each 2ml tank. A higher resistance coil will last longer and require less e-liquid while a Sub-Ohm coil will use up more vape juice.

Should you choose an MTL or DTL Tank?

This depends on whether you want more clouds and sweeter flavours from a high VG vape juice or more natural flavours, fewer clouds which look more discreet and a stronger throat hit. For the first option, pick a DTL tank like the Horizon Falcon Legend to go with a DTL kit for Sub-Ohm vaping. Alternatively, if you seek the best throat hit from your pod system, go with a tank such as the Aspire Nautilus 3.

MTL vapes throw out less cloud and a strong throat hit to closely mimic the sensation of smoking. However, Sub-Ohm cloud chasers love tanks and kits from brands like Geekvape and Smok to impress their peers and achieve maximum flavour! Bear in mind that MTL tanks tend to be slightly cheaper and high PG vape juice the same, in contrast to high VG vape juice which runs out much faster.
