Introducing the Kanger Subox Mini C
Most of us have a few vaping friends that are still clinging to their old school vape pen like a lifeboat. They want to try a mod and all the advantages it offers, but they’re a little apprehensive about making the switch. The Kanger Subox Mini-C goes a long way toward alleviating those reservations. This device is sort of a throwback to the first mods to hit the market. It’s a no-frills device that performs like a big league rig.
The Subox Mini-C doesn’t have TC capabilities, but it’s a pleasure to vape.
Kanger has one of the better reputations in the industry for quality and performance, and they also specialize in devices that are simple to use. It’s pretty nice to see the company apply their skills to the creation of a simple box mod. You won’t find a lot of bells and whistles on the Subox Mini C. It has a rudimentary three-button interface and a vibrant OLED screen. The device has one mode—variable wattage. The power can be adjusted from 7-50W, and that is plenty of room for the novice to play with. In most cases, staying between 20-30W will yield the best results, but the Subox will support lower coil resistances at max power.
Speaking of coils, this unit is only made to support SSOCC. There is no temperature control support. The Subox reads the coil architecture and the wattage can be set accordingly. That’s it. All that remains is to hit the fire button and vape.
The Subox Mini C comes with a threadless tank which can easily be broken down for cleaning.
The kit comes with a Pro Tank 5 which boasts a threadless design that relies on o-rings to create a seal. The concept is cool and makes removing the top and bottom of the tank much easier for the beginner. It also makes the process of adding e-liquid and changing coils simpler. The tank holds a generous 3ml of e-liquid.
As simple as it is, the Kanger Subox Mini C delivers some intense vapor volume. Well, let’s put it this way. The newcomer to mods will definitely be able to notice a difference. While extreme vapers may throw some shade at the Subox’s clouds, the novice will be impressed. In regards to flavor, this device really doesn’t take a back seat to any other mods with comparable wattage. Draws are rich and robust.
The Subox Mini-C is a compact device that fits comfortably in your hand.
Finally, something should be said for portability. The Subox is reasonably small. It is about the same size as the original Subox Mini from Kanger. It rides easily in a back pocket or a handbag.

Who the Kanger Subox Mini-C is Designed For
