Use this as a quick starting point before reading further. If you already know what you’re after, jump straight to the relevant section below.
If you’re unsure what any of those mean in practice, keep reading. Each section below covers what you actually need to know before spending money.
MTL stands for mouth-to-lung. It describes a draw style where vapour travels into your mouth first, then into your lungs, which is exactly how smoking a cigarette works. That similarity makes MTL tanks the natural choice for anyone switching from cigarettes or stepping up from a disposable.
These tanks use coils above 1.0 ohm and run at lower wattage, typically between 10W and 20W. The airflow is tighter and the vapour output is lower, but that’s the point. You get a satisfying throat hit, better nicotine delivery and a draw that feels familiar from day one.
Best for: switchers from cigarettes, nic salt users, vapers who want a discreet setup with lower e-liquid consumption.
E-liquid pairing: MTL tanks work best with 50/50 PG/VG liquids or high-PG blends. High-VG liquids (70/30 and above) are too thick for the small wicking ports in most MTL coils. Running the wrong liquid is one of the fastest ways to burn through coils and get a dry hit.
We stock the Innokin Zenith II as one of our go-to MTL recommendations. It handles both 50/50 blends and nic salts without the coil complaining, and the adjustable airflow lets you dial in the draw to match your preference. The Innokin Zlide is a solid option if you want something more compact and budget-friendly, with an easy slide top-fill cap that makes refilling straightforward.

Sub-ohm tanks use coils with a resistance below 1.0 ohm. Lower resistance means the coil heats up faster, draws more power and produces significantly more vapour. These tanks are designed for direct-to-lung (DTL) vaping, where you inhale straight into the lungs rather than holding vapour in your mouth first.
The draw is airier, the vapour is warmer and the flavour is more intense. You need a mod capable of delivering higher wattage, typically 40W minimum and often 60W or above, to get the best out of a sub-ohm coil.
Best for: vapers who want flavour intensity and cloud production, experienced vapers stepping up from a pod kit, anyone who prefers a warmer, fuller vape.
E-liquid pairing: sub-ohm tanks need high-VG liquid, 70/30 minimum. Running a high-nicotine 50/50 or salt nic liquid at sub-ohm wattage will deliver a throat hit that’s uncomfortably harsh. Stick to lower nicotine strengths, typically 3mg to 6mg freebase.
The Geekvape Z series is one of the most well-documented sub-ohm tanks on the market. We’ve run the Z coil at 60W with a 70/30 liquid and consistently got nine days of solid flavour before it dropped off, which is strong performance for a mesh coil at that wattage. The dual top-fill design is genuinely leakproof in everyday use, which is more than you can say for some of its competition. The Freemax Fireluke 4 is worth a look if you prioritise flavour clarity, with fast ramp-up and strong output using Freemax X/TX coils.
See our best sub-ohm tanks guide for full recommendations, read our guide to sub-ohm vaping if you’re new to this style, or browse our best sub-ohm kits if you need a complete setup.
Rebuildables are for vapers who want to go further. You’re building your own coils, cutting your own cotton and tuning everything yourself. It takes more time and more knowledge, but the payoff is maximum flavour control and significantly lower running costs once you’re set up.
RDA (Rebuildable Dripping Atomiser): No built-in tank. You drip e-liquid directly onto the cotton every few puffs. This makes them impractical for all-day carry but outstanding for flavour intensity. RDAs are a common pairing with mechanical mods. A basic tool kit is essential.
RTA (Rebuildable Tank Atomiser): Has a built-in reservoir that feeds liquid to your coil. Better suited to everyday use than an RDA, as you’re not constantly dripping. You still build your own coil, but the tank holds enough liquid to vape normally between refills.
RDTA (Rebuildable Dripping Tank Atomiser): A hybrid of the two. A tank reservoir feeds the coil from below, combining some of the convenience of an RTA with the open-deck build style of an RDA.
All three require tools, wire, cotton and patience. If you’re new to vaping or coming from a pod kit, none of these is the right starting point. If you’ve been vaping for a while and want to push flavour further, they’re genuinely worth exploring.
We also stock boro tanks and RBAs for AIO systems that support rebuildable inserts.
For a full breakdown, read our RDA, RTA and RDTA tanks explained guide, our how to build vape coils tutorial, or our guide to boro tanks and RBA vaping systems.
Uwell and HorizonTech are two more brands worth having on your radar when you’re comparing tanks. Uwell’s Caliburn range crosses over from pod kits into proper MTL tanks, while their Aeglos and Whirl lines cover mesh sub-ohm performance with a strong reputation for consistent coil life. HorizonTech built its name on ceramic coil technology in tanks such as the Falcon and Sakerz series, both known for rich flavour and dense vapour output at sub-ohm wattages. Both brands sit comfortably alongside Geekvape, Innokin, VooPoo and Freemax in terms of build quality and coil availability, and we stock replacement coils for most of their popular models.
A lot of vapers start on a pod kit, either after moving away from disposables or because it was the most approachable option at the time. At some point the question comes up: is it worth switching to a separate mod and tank?
The honest answer is yes, if you want more control, more e-liquid choice or better long-term value. A tank setup gives you access to a far wider range of coils and liquids, and the running cost often works out lower once you’re past the initial purchase.
Here’s what actually changes. You’re now dealing with a separate mod and tank rather than an integrated pod system. You’ll fill the tank manually, swap coils yourself and manage power settings if your mod has them. That sounds more involved than it is. The first coil change takes a few minutes to figure out, but after that it becomes routine.
What stays familiar: top-fill convenience is standard on most tanks, and the draw style options are the same. If you were using an MTL pod, an MTL tank keeps that feel. The coil maintenance rhythm is almost identical.
What to expect: a slightly steeper learning curve for the first week, then noticeably more flexibility. You can switch between e-liquid types more easily, your coil options are broader and the flavour quality on a good sub-ohm tank is a step above most pod systems.
If you’re making this move, the Innokin Zenith II is a reliable first tank for MTL vapers. For sub-ohm, the Geekvape Z series is well-documented, well-supported and a solid introduction to that style without throwing you in at the deep end.
Our vape pods vs tanks guide covers the comparison in full. The beginners guide to vaping is useful if you’re still finding your feet, and our best vape kits for beginners page covers complete setups worth considering.
This is the thing most retailers don’t tell you, and it’s probably the single biggest reason new vapers end up with burnt coils or a harsh vape within days of buying a new tank.
The rule is simple: match your liquid to your tank, not the other way round.
MTL tanks need thin liquid. That means 50/50 PG/VG or high-PG blends. High-VG shortfills (70/30 and above) are too thick for the small wicking ports on most MTL coils. The cotton can’t absorb the liquid fast enough, the coil runs dry and you get dry hits. We’ve seen vapers go through three coils in a week making this mistake before figuring out what was happening.
Sub-ohm tanks need thick liquid. High-VG blends, 70/30 minimum. The wider wicking ports and higher power delivery suit the thicker viscosity. Running a high-nicotine 50/50 or nic salt through a sub-ohm tank at 60W will give you a throat hit that’s far too harsh to be pleasant.
Nicotine strength matters too. MTL vapers can comfortably use liquids up to 20mg/ml, which is the UK legal maximum for nicotine-containing e-liquid. Sub-ohm vapers should stay between 3mg and 6mg freebase. Higher strengths at high wattage become uncomfortable quickly.
If you’re unsure which liquid format suits you, our nic salts vs freebase guide is a good place to start. Our VG and PG explainer covers the ratio question in detail, and our nicotine strength guide helps you dial in the right level.
The upfront price of a tank is only part of the story. Coil replacement and e-liquid consumption are what determine the real weekly cost, and those numbers vary quite a bit depending on what you’re running.
MTL tanks are cheaper to run day to day. Lower wattage means slower coil wear and lower liquid consumption per session. An MTL coil running at 12W to 15W, used a couple of times a day, will typically last two to three weeks before flavour starts to drop off. Coils for popular MTL tanks usually cost between £2 and £3 each, which works out to less than a pound a week in coil costs.
Sub-ohm tanks cost more to run. Higher wattage, more vapour and more liquid per puff all add up. A sub-ohm mesh coil running at 60W and vaped throughout the day can start to degrade within five to seven days. Those coils typically cost £3 to £4 each. Add higher liquid consumption, and the weekly cost is noticeably higher than MTL.
Two things that shorten coil life faster than anything else: sweet, dark e-liquids and vaping above the recommended wattage range. Caramel, custard and dessert flavours caramelise on the coil faster than fruit or menthol blends. Running a coil above its rated wattage burns the cotton out quickly.

Explore our answers to some frequently asked questions.
An MTL tank draws vapour into your mouth before you inhale, like a cigarette. It uses coils above 1.0 ohm and works best at lower wattage, typically 10W to 20W. A sub-ohm tank pulls vapour straight into the lungs, uses coils below 1.0 ohm, runs at higher wattage and produces significantly more vapour. Your preferred draw style and the nicotine strength you use should guide which you choose.
UK vaping regulations, derived from the Tobacco Products Directive (TPD), cap refillable tank capacity at 2ml for commercially sold products. Some tanks are sold with larger bubble glass sections, but these are typically listed as spare parts rather than the standard configuration. The 2ml limit applies to the tank as it’s sold and packaged.
Not quite. MTL tanks work best with 50/50 PG/VG liquids or high-PG blends. High-VG liquids are too thick for the small wicking ports on most MTL coils and will shorten coil life significantly. Sub-ohm tanks need high-VG liquid, 70/30 minimum. Running high-nicotine liquid through a sub-ohm tank at high wattage will deliver a very harsh throat hit.
It depends on the tank type, wattage and how heavily you vape. MTL coils at low wattage typically last two to three weeks. Sub-ohm coils running at 60W and used throughout the day can start to degrade within five to seven days. Sweet, dark liquids like custards and dessert flavours burn through coils faster than lighter fruit or menthol blends.
Most modern tanks use a 510 connection, which is the standard thread across the vast majority of regulated mods. As long as your mod can handle the coil resistance in the tank, you should be fine mixing brands. Check the minimum and maximum resistance range in your mod’s specs. Coils themselves, however, are brand-specific and not interchangeable between different tank models.
If you’re used to an MTL draw, the Innokin Zenith II keeps that feel while giving you more e-liquid options and a longer coil life than most pod systems. For sub-ohm, the Geekvape Z series is a well-supported starting point with good coil longevity and a reliable leakproof design. Avoid jumping straight to a rebuildable unless you’re willing to invest time learning to build and wick coils properly.
An RDA (rebuildable dripping atomiser) lets you build your own coils and drip e-liquid directly onto the wicking material between puffs. The payoff is maximum flavour intensity and full control over your setup. The trade-off is that it requires tools, knowledge and patience. If you’re new to vaping or coming from a pod kit, it’s not the right starting point. For experienced vapers who want to push flavour further, it’s worth exploring.
Sub-ohm refers to any coil with a resistance below 1.0 ohm. Lower resistance means the coil heats up faster, draws higher wattage and produces more vapour. Sub-ohm tanks are designed for direct-to-lung (DTL) vaping and require a mod capable of delivering higher power, typically 40W and above to get good results.
Almost always because the coil wasn’t primed before first use. Before firing a new coil, fill the tank and leave it for five to ten minutes to let the cotton saturate. Starting at a lower wattage and gradually working up also helps. Our how to prime a vape coil guide covers the full process.
An RTA (rebuildable tank atomiser) has a built-in reservoir that feeds liquid to the coil from the side or above. An RDTA (rebuildable dripping tank atomiser) feeds liquid from a reservoir below the deck, combining an open-build style with a tank supply. Both require you to build your own coils. RTAs are generally better suited to everyday carry, while RDTAs are more of a hybrid option for experienced builders who want the flavour profile of an RDA without constant dripping.
Yes, considerably more. Higher wattage vaporises liquid faster, and the increased airflow pulls more vapour per puff. If you’re vaping heavily throughout the day on a 60W sub-ohm setup, you’ll go through noticeably more liquid than on an MTL tank at 15W. For price-conscious vapers, this is worth factoring into the weekly running cost.
An MTL tank is the closest match to the feel of a cigarette. The tight draw, higher resistance coil and lower vapour output replicate the smoking experience better than any sub-ohm setup. Paired with a 50/50 liquid or nic salt at a nicotine strength that matches your previous cigarette intake, an MTL tank gives you the best chance of a comfortable transition. The Innokin Zlide and Innokin Zenith II are both solid choices for this.
Leaking is usually down to poor sealing or overfilling rather than a single tank being inherently leaky, but tanks with dual top-fill systems and secure O-ring seals, such as the Geekvape Z series, tend to perform best in everyday use. Bottom airflow tanks with well-designed seals also leak less than older top airflow designs. Filling slowly, avoiding overfilling past the max line, and making sure the top cap is seated correctly all reduce the risk regardless of which tank you’re using.
Bottom airflow tanks draw air in from underneath the coil, which tends to give a cooler, more direct vapour path and is the standard design on most modern sub-ohm tanks. Top airflow tanks, more common on older designs, draw air in above the coil and can be more prone to leaking through the airflow slots if overfilled. Bottom airflow is generally considered the better option for flavour and leak resistance, which is why most current tanks, including those from Geekvape, Uwell and HorizonTech, use it.
