Sub Ohm Vape Tanks

Sub ohm tanks are designed for direct to lung (DTL) vaping with coils below a resistance of 1.0ohm, such as 0.4ohm. Sub-ohm refers to the electrical resistance of the coil located within the tank. When the resistance reads as 0.99ohm or less on your vape is classed as a sub-ohm.

The tanks offer huge cloud production and a powerful flavour and work best between 50W and 100W. The tanks pair with battery mods and high VG e-liquid for denser cloud production. In addition to producing more vapour, sub-ohm tanks deliver more nicotine. Meaning fewer inhales are required to feel a ‘hit’ from your e-liquid.

There are many different sub ohm tanks to choose from. Popular choices include the VOOPOO PnP X Pod, Aspire Nautilus 3 Tank, and the Eleaf GTL Tank. While there might not be a definitive tank that is the 'best' for vapers, as each one offers a similar experience, it can sometimes all come down to looks or how well it pairs with the vape mod it will be used on.

Ultimately, choosing the best sub ohm tank comes down to personal preference most of the time, but you do need to make sure that the tank you choose comes supplied with the coil resistance you need. The lower a coil's resistance, the higher the wattage power can be used.

User Guide: Best Sub Ohm Tanks Guide

Sub ohm vape tanks are aimed at vapers who want to go beyond the standard vaping experience, and enjoy big vapour clouds, a DTL (direct to lung) inhale, and an intense flavour. If this sounds like something you'd enjoy, then a sub ohm tank would be an ideal choice as you progress on your vaping journey.

Sub ohm tanks work best when paired with a liquid that has a higher VG content and lower nicotine strength. The VG (vegetable glycerine) used in e-liquid determines how much vapour will be produced, and tends to be a little sweeter than PG (propylene glycol), which is used for throat hit.

We stock a range of vape liquid brands that would be ideal for use with sub ohm tanks, such as Double Drip, Pocket Fuel, Riot Squad, Doozy Vape Co, Urban Chase short fill, and much, much more!

No, sub ohm tank vapes are generally not recommended for beginner vapers. The devices can often be complex to use and deliver an intense inhale. New users are recommended to use MTL (mouth to lung) pod kits for a smooth cig a like inhale.

Nic Salts are not recommended to be used in DTL vape tanks. The kits offer increased nicotine absorption due to the huge cloud production so don’t pair well with high MG e-liquids. Nicotine salts are best suited for low power MTL vape kits and RDTL vaping styles.
