Wholesale Vape Tanks - UK Trusted Vape Supplier
Vape Tanks
A good vape tank is one of the most important decisions any vaper makes. It shapes every puff, controls how e-liquid reaches the coil, and determines how much flavour and vapour production you actually get from your setup. At No1 Vape Wholesale, we have brought together a focused selection of proven, high-performance tanks as part of our wider Vape Accessories range, covering sub-ohm builds, mesh coil systems, and versatile all-round performers from some of the most respected names in the industry.
Whether you are building out a new kit from scratch, upgrading an existing setup, or stocking your retail shelves with tanks that your customers will actually trust and return for, this collection covers the key options across different styles and vaping preferences. Every tank listed here has been selected because it earns its place on merit, not marketing.
The Heart of Any Advanced Setup
A vape tank is the component that holds your e-liquid and houses the coil responsible for heating and vaporising it. It attaches to a compatible mod or battery through a standard 510 connection and works together with the coil to determine the character of every puff. The tank controls airflow, e-liquid flow rate, vapour production, and a significant portion of the flavour experience. Choosing the right tank for your mod and your vaping style makes a far bigger difference than most beginners expect.
Sub-Ohm, MTL and Everything Between
Tanks broadly fall into two main styles. Sub-ohm tanks use coils below one ohm to produce high wattage, warm, dense vapour with strong flavour intensity. They are best suited to direct lung inhale vaping and pair well with high-powered box mods. Mouth-to-lung tanks mimic the tighter draw of a cigarette and work at lower wattages, making them a natural fit for users stepping away from smoking. Some tanks, like those in our range, are designed to perform exceptionally well across both styles depending on the coil fitted.
Fill with E-Liquid
Open the top-fill port and fill the tank with your chosen e-liquid. Most modern tanks hold between 2ml and 6ml depending on the model
Prime the Coil
Allow the coil to saturate with e-liquid for a few minutes before firing. This prevents dry hits and extends coil lifespan significantly
Connect to Your Mod
Thread the tank onto your mod via the 510 connection. Set your wattage to the coil's recommended range shown on the coil head itself
Adjust Airflow and Vape
Open or close the airflow ring to your preferred draw resistance. Fire the mod and inhale to start vaping with full flavour and vapour production
Superior Flavour and Vapour Output
A quality sub-ohm tank paired with a capable mod produces a level of flavour depth and vapour density that pod systems and all-in-one kits simply cannot match. The larger coil surface area, particularly in mesh coil designs, heats e-liquid more evenly and extracts more from every drop of liquid in the tank.
Full Control Over Your Setup
Tanks give the user genuine control over their vaping experience. Airflow can be adjusted to change draw resistance. Different coil heads deliver different wattage ranges and vapour characters. Changing the e-liquid is as simple as emptying and refilling. No fixed settings, no manufacturer restrictions on what the device will and will not do.
Cost-Effective for Regular Vapers
The ongoing cost of vaping with a tank setup is significantly lower than using disposables or prefilled pods. Replacement coil heads are inexpensive, e-liquid purchased in larger bottles is far cheaper per ml than any cartridge system, and the tank itself lasts for a very long time when maintained properly.
Wide Coil and Liquid Compatibility
Most quality tanks from established brands like those in our range use coil systems that are available in multiple resistance options. This allows users to switch between sub-ohm and higher resistance vaping, use freebase or nicotine salt e-liquids depending on preference, and fine-tune their experience without needing to replace the tank entirely.
Built to Last with Quality Materials
The tanks in our range are constructed from stainless steel, pyrex glass, and quality resin components. These are not disposable items. With regular coil changes and basic maintenance, a well-made tank will serve a vaper reliably for months or years, making it one of the best-value hardware purchases available in the market.
Strong Retail Demand from Experienced Vapers
Vapers who have moved beyond starter kits consistently shop for tanks, coils, and e-liquid as their three main repeat purchases. For retail stockists, a well-chosen tank range generates strong ongoing sales because every tank sold creates a customer who returns for coil replacements, which are among the highest-frequency repeat purchases in the entire vaping category.
The Freemax Mesh Pro is one of the most respected sub-ohm tanks in the market and has maintained a strong following since its introduction. Freemax built their reputation on mesh coil technology, and the Mesh Pro is where that expertise is most clearly demonstrated. The tank supports both single and double mesh coil options, allowing users to push their setup for maximum cloud production or pull back for a more refined flavour-focused experience. The e-liquid capacity is generous, and the top-fill system is clean and practical. For vapers who prioritise flavour above everything else and are running a capable mod, the Mesh Pro consistently delivers one of the best results in its class.
- Brand: Freemax
- Coil Type: Single and double mesh coil compatible
- Connection: 510 standard
- Fill System: Top fill

Innokin has a long-standing reputation for producing reliable, well-engineered hardware and the iSub B is a strong example of that philosophy. This tank is built around versatility, offering a tight airflow range that suits both direct lung and a restricted mouth-to-lung style depending on how the airflow ring is set. The iSub B uses Innokin's own coil range, which is widely available and reasonably priced, making ongoing maintenance straightforward and cost-effective. The build quality is solid throughout, and the tank handles both higher VG e-liquids and standard blends without issue. It is a dependable, no-nonsense tank that works well for everyday use without requiring any specialist knowledge to get the best from it.

GeekVape has earned its position as one of the most trusted names in advanced vaping hardware and the Obelisk Tank reflects that quality clearly. The tank is built with GeekVape's characteristic attention to engineering detail, featuring precision airflow control, a sturdy stainless steel and glass construction, and a coil system that delivers consistent output across a wide wattage range. The Obelisk is particularly well regarded for its leak resistance, which is one of the most common complaints vapers have about tanks generally. It handles high-power output well and is a natural pairing for GeekVape's own mod range, though it performs equally well across most quality third-party devices with a standard 510 connection.
- Brand: GeekVape
- Coil Type: GeekVape Obelisk coil series
- Connection: 510 standard
- Build: Stainless steel and pyrex glass
- Best For: High-power output and leak resistance
Smok is one of the most widely stocked vaping brands in the UK and the TFV18 Mini is one of the strongest performers in their tank lineup. The Mini takes the core technology from the full-size TFV18 and packages it into a more compact, everyday-friendly format without sacrificing what makes the TFV range popular. It uses Smok's mesh coil system to deliver rich, warm flavour and strong vapour production at a wattage range that is accessible on most mid-range mods. The TFV18 Mini is particularly well positioned as a retail product because Smok's name recognition does a significant portion of the work at point of sale, and replacement coils for the TFV range are among the most searched-for coil products in the UK vaping market.
- Brand: Smok
- Coil Type: Smok TFV18 Mini mesh coil series
- Connection: 510 standard
- Format: Compact sub-ohm design
- Best For: Sub-ohm performance in a smaller build
Horizontech is a brand that experienced vapers and hardware enthusiasts recognise for pushing coil technology forward, and the Aquila Tank is a well-constructed showcase of that capability. The Aquila uses Horizontech's own coil platform to deliver a smooth, even vapour output with good flavour fidelity across a range of e-liquid types. The tank has a clean, minimal aesthetic that suits a wide range of mod styles and its airflow system is precise enough to allow genuine fine-tuning rather than just toggling between fully open and fully closed. For vapers who want a tank from a brand that takes coil engineering seriously rather than just repackaging existing technology, the Aquila is a compelling option that holds its ground confidently against better-known competitors.
- Brand: Horizontech
- Coil Type: Horizontech Aquila coil series
- Connection: 510 standard
- Airflow: Precision adjustable airflow ring
- Best For: Vapers who value coil technology and flavour fidelity
💨 Sub-Ohm Direct Lung
Wide airflow, low-resistance coils, high wattage. Produces large amounts of warm vapour and intense flavour. Best suited to high-powered mods and high-VG e-liquids. The Freemax Mesh Pro and Smok TFV18 Mini excel here.
🎯 Restricted Direct Lung
Slightly tighter airflow than full sub-ohm, still direct lung style. Offers a balance between vapour production and flavour concentration. A popular choice for vapers who find fully open airflow too loose.
🚬 Mouth to Lung
Tighter draw that mimics a cigarette-style inhale. Lower wattage, higher resistance, works well with nicotine salt e-liquids. A natural transition point for smokers. The Innokin iSub B supports this style comfortably.
🔧 Versatile All-Round
Some tanks, like the GeekVape Obelisk and Horizontech Aquila, are built to perform well across multiple styles. These are the best starting point for vapers who are still dialling in their preferences or who like to change their setup frequently.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a vape tank?
A vape tank is the component that holds e-liquid and houses a coil which heats the liquid to produce vapour. It connects to a mod or battery through a 510 thread and is the primary component responsible for flavour, vapour production, and airflow in an advanced vaping setup.
What is the difference between a sub-ohm tank and a mouth-to-lung tank?
Sub-ohm tanks use coils with a resistance below one ohm and are designed for direct lung inhale at higher wattages, producing large amounts of vapour and rich flavour. Mouth-to-lung tanks use higher resistance coils at lower wattages and deliver a tighter draw that is closer to the feel of smoking a cigarette. Some tanks in our range support both styles depending on the coil fitted.
How do I know which tank is compatible with my mod?
The vast majority of vape tanks use a standard 510 thread connection, which is the universal standard across virtually all mods and batteries. Check the wattage requirements of the tank's recommended coils against your mod's output range. If your mod can hit the minimum wattage recommended on the coil packaging, the tank will perform correctly.
How often do I need to replace the coil in a vape tank?
Coil lifespan varies depending on usage frequency, e-liquid sweetener content, and wattage. For most regular vapers, coils typically last between one and three weeks. Signs that a coil needs replacing include a burnt or muted flavour, reduced vapour production, or a gurgling sound from the tank.
Which tank in the range is best for flavour?
The Freemax Mesh Pro is widely regarded as one of the strongest performers for flavour in its class, thanks to Freemax's advanced mesh coil technology. The GeekVape Obelisk and Horizontech Aquila also deliver excellent flavour fidelity. The best choice ultimately depends on your mod's wattage range and your preferred vaping style.
What type of e-liquid should I use with a sub-ohm tank?
Sub-ohm tanks perform best with e-liquids that have a higher VG content, typically 70% VG or above. High-VG e-liquids are thicker and produce better vapour in low-resistance, high-wattage setups. Standard 50/50 e-liquids can also be used but may not deliver the same level of vapour production.
Can I buy vape tanks in bulk for my retail shop?
Absolutely. No1 Vape Wholesale is set up precisely for retail buyers. You receive a 5% discount across all products, same-day dispatch on orders placed before the daily cut-off, and free delivery on orders over £200. Tanks are a consistent repeat purchase category because every tank sold creates ongoing demand for replacement coils.
Why is my vape tank leaking?
Leaking is most commonly caused by a worn or improperly seated coil, overfilling the tank past the maximum fill line, or leaving the airflow fully open when not in use. Ensure the coil is screwed in firmly, fill to just below the maximum line, and close the airflow when storing the tank to minimise the risk of leakage.
How do I clean a vape tank?
To clean a vape tank, disassemble it fully, remove the coil, and rinse all components except the coil under warm water. Allow all parts to air dry completely before reassembling. For a deeper clean, soaking the metal and glass components in warm water for 30 minutes before rinsing helps remove residual e-liquid build-up.
What is the refund policy at No1 Vape Wholesale for vape tanks?
No1 Vape Wholesale operates a fast refund policy across all orders. If you receive a faulty or incorrect item, contact our team and the issue will be resolved promptly to keep your business running without any unnecessary delay or disruption.
