RDA/RTA TANKS

Ready to level up your vaping setup? Our collection of best rebuildable tanks from trusted names like Deathwish Modz, Hellvape and Wotofo gives you full control over your vaping experience. We stock both RDA (Rebuildable Dripping Atomiser) tanks for intense flavour and direct dripping and RTA (Rebuildable Tank Atomiser) options that combine the benefits of rebuilding with a convenient tank reservoir. So, whether you're after maximum flavour from your tank or the convenience of an RTA, we've got the perfect vape tank for your needs.

What’s the Difference Between RDA and RTA Tanks?

RDA (Rebuildable Dripping Atomizer) and RTA (Rebuildable Tank Atomizer) are two distinct types of vape tanks:

RDA:

  • Direct dripping system with no tank reservoir
  • Requires frequent dripping of e-liquid
  • More straightforward to build on due to easy deck access

RTA:

  • Features a tank reservoir to hold e-liquid. However, limited to 2ml per TPD regulations
  • Provides consistent vaping without frequent dripping
  • Slightly more complex to build due to the enclosed deck

Are Rebuildable Tanks Suitable for Beginners?

While rebuildable tanks offer great customisation and cost-effectiveness, they require a certain level of knowledge and skill. We recommend them for vapers who:

  • Understand basic electrical principles (Ohm's law)
  • Are comfortable with basic hand tools
  • Have good manual dexterity
  • Are willing to learn about coil building and wicking techniques
  • Understand battery safety

For absolute beginners, we suggest starting with vape tanks that use replaceable coils and transitioning to rebuildables after gaining some vaping experience.

What Tools and Supplies Do I Need to Use Rebuildable Tanks?

Essential items for rebuilding include:

  • Coiling kit (wire cutters, ceramic tweezers, scissors)
  • Ohm reader or regulated mod with resistance checking
  • Vape cotton for wicking
  • Appropriate wire or pre-made coils
  • Small screwdriver set
  • Wire brushes for cleaning

Always ensure you have extra supplies on hand, as rebuilding requires regular maintenance and replacement of materials.

How Safe Are Rebuildable Tanks?

Rebuildable tanks are completely safe when used correctly. Key safety considerations include:

  • Always use on a regulated mod with safety features
  • Check for shorts before use
  • Ensure coils read at appropriate resistance
  • Use quality materials from trusted suppliers
  • Regular maintenance and inspection
  • Clean builds and proper wicking to prevent dry hits

What Are the Advantages of Using Rebuildable Tanks?

Rebuildable tanks offer several benefits:

  • Superior customisation of vaping experience
  • Better flavour and vapour production potential
  • Cost-effective in the long run
  • Ability to fine-tune resistance and power
  • Environmental benefits (less waste than stock coils)
  • Higher build quality and durability
  • Greater control over airflow and draw style
  • Satisfaction of building your own coils
