    Unhappy Tanks woes :(

    I got a tank to go along with my new vtube, and I watched instructional videos on youtube about filling/using tanks. So, first, as a test, I just soaked the atomizer inside and used it w/ my vtube; It worked well, but very airy... Then when I picked out the lil o-ring it comes with, a wire pulled out of the atomizer half-way. :S Can I save my tank? Can I fit that wire end back into the filling somehow without danger?? Help!
    Also, are all tanks airy? I was thinking maybe it was the brand, Apollo, but I dunno. On one of the videos I watched, the dude put a "collar" on to tighten the draw, but I don't know where to find one of those. Google it, I guess?
    In any case, all is useless for the time being if I can't fix my tank.

    Are you using a cartridge with an atty or a cartomizer with a tank or a clearomizer?

    It's an atty with a tank, I think. The center is metal, so that's an atomizer, right? That's what they called it on the video. :S Pardon my ignorance.

    IF you can provide a link to the tank on the vendor's site we may be of better help. There are lots of different tank setups so being more specific helps.

    Here are the different delivery systems:

    atomizer/ atty- an element on to which 3-4 drops of juice is dripped

    cartridge/ cart- a container with sponge (filled with juice) that is used with the atty- juice drips on to atty from cart and is vaporized

    cartomizer/ carto- metal tube with stuffing and element.

    carto+tank- a carto with a hole punched in it. Carto is than placed in a glass, metal or plastic tank which is filled with juice- juice saturates carto by way of hole in carto.

    Clearomizer- a plastic or metal tank with a wick and element. Contains NO stuffing. The wicks and element can be easily replaced cheaply.

    @ fuzziefreakie

    If you prefer using an Atomizer like myself over any type filler type carto,, you may want to check out the Reactor tank over at NHaler, here = The Reactor Tank and Accessories The newest one with the single coil Atty works very well.
    I have no favorites I love them all, but the sexy chicks who sport wild thongs drive me up the wall ;-)

    The collars are really good for adjusting air flow. Some sites call them cones. The one you want is shaped like a ring and it's about 0.5" wide.

    I'm using a cartomizer inside a tank. They told me to fill the tank, pop the lid on and suck through the drip tip for a minute without running the battery. You're not supposed to drip any juice inside the silver tube. I hope you can get more cartos and a collar.

    I'm using the Smoktech Dual Coil Tank V2 with a collar on an ego Twist battery and liking it a lot.
