Voopoo Uforce-L
It takes something special to stand out as the best vape tank that doesn’t leak, but the Voopoo Uforce-L Tank delivers a stunning suite of features.
Why We Recommend It
- Raised air inlets prevent e-juice leaks
- Three quiet airways for maximum cloud production
- A built-in heat sink helps keep temperatures in check
It takes something special to stand out as the best vape tank that doesn’t leak, but the Voopoo Uforce-L Tank delivers a stunning suite of features.
Though the build is somewhat broad and may eclipse thinner batteries, the Uforce-L uses that scale to significant effect. Traditionally, sub-ohm tanks are pretty loud. However, the internal airways in the Uforce-L have been specifically designed to reduce noise, resulting in a stealthy sub-ohm tank.
Speaking of airways, the Uforce-L sub-ohm tank boasts a remarkable three separate inlets. This provides you with greater airflow than 99% of tanks and results in phenomenal cloud production.
The Uforce-L is compatible with the full range of PnP replacement coils, with ohmages ranging from 0.15 ohms to 1.2 ohms. This provides you with surprising versatility, with even MTL coils fitting in easily with push-to-fit installation.
The Voopoo Uforce-L Tank is the best of the bunch regarding leak-resistant tanks and will give cloud-chasing vapers the ride of their lives.
Pros
- Compatible with full PnP Coil range
- Stealthy sub-ohm tank sound suppression
- Three air inlets for increased vapour production
Cons
- No sliding top-fill system
Vaporesso X Tank T
X gon give it to ya (Vapour, that is)
Why We Recommend It
- Set your airflow however you prefer with the highly precise air control ring
- Enjoy a clean vaping session thanks to the leak-resistant design of the tank
- Takes GTX mesh coils from 0.4 to 1.2 ohms, with 0.6 and 1.2 ohm coils in the box
Vaporesso’s X Tank T is a 2ml MTL and restricted direct-to-lung (RDL) tank. It takes four GTX mesh coils, from 1.2 ohms for a tight, cigarette-style draw to 0.4 ohms for a looser, warmer RDL draw, and comes with the 0.6 and 1.2 ohm coils.
The tank also delivers a mess-free vaping experience, thanks to its anti-leak design and top-based airflow control ring. This means that both thick VG e-liquids and thin PG vape juice will stay put and await your atomisation, and filling the tank with either is easy thanks to the large refill ports revealed when you unscrew the top of the tank.
Pros
- Four GTX coil options, from tight MTL to RDL
- Top airflow design helps minimise unwanted e-liquid leaks
- Top-fill system makes refilling convenient
Cons
- Requires a compatible mod or device to operate
- Replacement coils are an ongoing expense
SMOK T-Air Subtank
With a similar style to older SMOK sub-ohm tank units like the Baby Beast, the T-Air Subtank showcases an old-school look.
Why We Recommend It
- Raised honeycomb airway prevents e-juice leaks
- Incredible price for such a great sub-ohm tank
- Derlin drip tip maintains a comfortable temperature
The SMOK T-Air Subtank felt like a returning champion when we first unboxed it. Built-in a similar style to older SMOK sub-ohm tank units like the Baby Beast, the T-Air Subtank showcases an old-school look.
However, on closer inspection, we can begin to appreciate newer vape tank design elements, including features that will prevent e-liquid spills!
The airflow adjustment ring has been placed high up top, a great way to stop e-liquid from escaping your sub-ohm tank. Looking closer, you’ll see that the airflow adjustment ring has a honeycomb design. Dozens of small air inlets allow you to customize your precise airflow level intricately, resulting in clouds that best suit you.
Meshed SMOK TA Coils are available in 0.15ohms, 0.2ohms and 0.4ohms, with more straightforward than ever push-to-fit installation, a far cry from SMOK’s old screw-in designs from yesteryear!
And one of the best things about the T-Air Subtank is the price. While not the cheapest sub-ohm tank on the list, we feel it’s the best value in providing a rich and cloudy sub-ohm experience at just over twenty pounds.
Pros
- Unique honeycomb airways for total cloud control
- Raised airflow for e-liquid security
- A highly affordable sub-ohm tank
Cons
- Included coils can only handle 45W outputs
- No sliding top-fill convenience
Aspire Nautilus 3
The Aspire Nautilus 3 Tank has received a lot of love from us since its release, and a big part of that is due to its unique anti-leak measures.
Why We Recommend It
- Coil isolation chamber preserves coil life
- Sturdy steel construction
- Compatible with all Nautilus Coils
The Nautilus 3 features a coil-isolation chamber which automatically closes the wicking ports when the base is unscrewed. This leak proof design means that you can change coils with a full juice tank and not lose a single drop, one of the best examples of leak proof technology.
And when it comes to coils, you’re spoilt for choice, as the Nautilus 3 is fully compatible with the Nautilus Coil series. Ranging from 1.8ohms to 0.3ohms across seven coils, the Nautilus 3 opens up a world of vaping opportunities.
A solid steel construction lends a heft to the tank. Maybe too heavy for some, but one tug on that sliding top-fill mechanism and you’ll feel confident in the physical longevity of your vape tank.
The Aspire Nautilus 3 Tank is one of the best vapes that don’t leak. Simple to use, satisfying to draw from and built to last.
Pros
- Takes all 7 Nautilus coils, 0.3 to 1.8 ohms
- Change coils without losing e-liquid
- Tough and rigid sliding top-fill
Cons
- Heavy, cumbersome build
- The 0.3 and 0.4 ohm coils need a mod that reaches 23–28W
Aspire Atlantis GT
Aspire is known for its sleek and elegant builds. However, for the Atlantis GT Tank, they’ve acquired a design from frequent collaborator Taifun, who helped them assemble a marvellously sturdy DTL tank.
Why We Recommend It
- Glass section protected by steel panels
- NiChrome coils used for increased clouds and flavour
- Designed by Taifun, produced by Aspire
Aspire is known for its sleek and elegant builds. However, for the Atlantis GT Tank, they’ve acquired a design from frequent collaborator Taifun, who helped them assemble a marvellously sturdy DTL tank.
The Atlantis GT Tank has a bulky build, featuring thick steel casings that prevent damage to the unit. The glass ring is protected behind a tight grid of armoured panels. This allows you to check your juice while ensuring the glass remains protected.
Aspire unveiled a new range of coils for the tank, the Aspire Atlantis SE Coils. Available in 0.3ohms, 0.35ohms and 0.18ohms, they each provide a vast amount of vapour. Rather than usual kanthal heating elements, Aspire has used NiChrome meshes, a material frequently used for DIY coil building.
This results in fast absorption and thick plumes. The tank is easily refilled through a side hatch, meaning you don’t have to do any disassembly to get a new batch of juice running through your coils.
Pros
- Durable steel build
- Powerful NiChrome mesh coil heads
- Side-refill without disassembly
Cons
- Chunky build size
- Unusual mouthpiece shape
Lost Vape UB Lite
While Lost Vape is typically associated with big and bulky external battery vape mod units, the UB Lite Tank demonstrates a straddling of the vape genres.
Why We Recommend It
- DTL and MTL coils available
- Chunky steel rings protect glass ring
- Tapered drip tip suits MTL vaping
While Lost Vape is typically associated with big and bulky external battery vape mod units, the UB Lite Tank demonstrates a straddling of the vape genres.
Built with the chunky steel one might expect to see on a cloud tank, the UB Lite Tank is primarily intended for MTL use. The long and tapered mouthpiece suits the tight draws of MTL vaping perfectly.
The relatively tight airflow controls also suit the concentrated beams of vapour you get when performing MTL inhales.
Within the tank lie the Lost Vape UB Lite mesh Coils. Built with meshed heating elements, the coils generate rich and flavoursome vapour by quickly soaking up juice, preventing leaks.
The coils can be acquired in 0.8ohms and 1.4ohms for satisfying MTL puffs, along with a 0.4ohm unit for when you fancy kicking out some big-time clouds.
While mainly an MTL tank, the glass sits recessed behind thick steel like on a sub-ohm tank, providing your UB Lite with more damage protection than tanks usually receive.
The Lost Vape UB Lite tank is a great, highly affordable leakproof tank that does both jobs
Pros
- Versatile vape tank
- Solidly built with recessed glass
- Rubber rings to prevent leaks
Cons
- Airflow is not quite wide enough for intense DTL use
- It doesn’t come with a DTL mouthpiece included
