Vape Tanks Guide UK

Learn how to choose a vape tank, match tanks with coils and e-liquids, and understand MTL vs sub-ohm tank compatibility.

How to Choose a Vape Tank

A vape tank holds your e-liquid and coil. The right tank depends on your device, coil compatibility, wattage range, airflow preference and the type of e-liquid you use.

Sub-ohm tanks are usually designed for bigger vapour, lower nicotine strengths and high-VG e-liquids. MTL tanks are usually tighter draw options for 50/50 e-liquids or nic salts.

Tank, Coil and E-Liquid Compatibility

Coils are not universal, so always match replacement coils to the exact tank model. Check the recommended wattage range and use an e-liquid that suits the coil style.

Using liquid that is too thin in a high-powered tank can increase leaking, while liquid that is too thick in a small MTL coil may struggle to wick and cause burnt hits.

Vape Tank FAQs

Are vape tanks universal?

No. Many tanks use a standard 510 connection, but coil compatibility, wattage range and airflow style vary. Always check your device and tank compatibility.

What is the difference between MTL and sub-ohm tanks?

MTL tanks usually have a tighter draw and suit 50/50 e-liquids or nic salts. Sub-ohm tanks are usually airier, more powerful and suit high-VG e-liquids.

Why is my vape tank leaking?

Leaking can be caused by loose coils, worn seals, overfilling, damaged glass, or using e-liquid that does not suit the tank and coil.
