iirc you could make an improvised one from a self piercing saddle valve if you're out of other options

There doesn't seem to be any vendor selling carto punches this side of Pluto and that bullet piercing valve on the Australian Amazon site is about $23.

Have you tried your local hardware stores? Look in plumbing and A/C supplies.

V4l probably just renamed a Smoketech carto punch. That's what most people used. Plenty of them still around.
In for meNaaah I tried that one and a few others if you go on the VIP homepage or Google it you'll know why I'm trying my best to replace what I have misplaced
This getting old stuff ain't work

in that case i would suggest updating your vaping apparatus. they quite literally dont make stuff like they used to. On possible option is putting a want to buy ad up in the marketplace. There might be someone who has moved on with one in the bottom of his vape box willing to sell

Sad to say, but at some point you're going to have to move on from the cartomizers, cartotanks, and punch tools. Manufacturers won't continue to make "ancient" out-dated products if they can no longer make enough profit to continue making them. You're seeing evidence of this yourself by your inquiry.

I'm not being rude, but you need to "up your game". I was a huge cartotank fan a few years ago, but I saw the writing on the wall and moved on. Believe it or not, modern clearomizers work just as well if not better than a cartotank did back in the day.

I'm look in at 6 provaris and 6 of the new ones I bought for 8 bucks a piece,I guess that should've told me sumthin.
Let me suggest you get an Aspire Nautilus clearomizer. They've been around for 3 - 4 years now, and are still a very popular tank for mouth-to-lung, low voltage/wattage vapers like yourself. The Provari/Nautilus combo is still a popular combo to this day.

If you're not a fan of the Nautilus's form factor, another popular tank for a Provari is the Kabuki. The authentic Kabuki is a $100 tank, but you can get excellent quality clones from Fast Tech for just $13. The Kabuki and its clone use the same replacement coils that the Aspire Nautilus uses.
