What exactly are, "tank crackers?"

So I bought the Kanger Pro tank 2 Mini tanks this month. I LOVE them in compared to the original EVOD tanks! No dripping, for one. Also, the liquid doesn't change color to a darkened tint, which I think, may have indicated burning. The experience with the new tank is completely vapor - signs of burning are completely obsolete. I also like how it doesn't get so dirty and can be taken apart and cleaned piece by piece as the entire thing breaks down completely. And then of course I can put whatever flavor I like in them 
Buuut... My Kanger EVOD batteries now seem out of date, technologically. They're starting to fall apart and lose their luster and color. The charger has some rusting on it already, too. I know it won't be too long before the batteries start breaking down. What would you guys recommend to replace them? I would need a 510 fit. Also, I'm just looking for replacement batteries that are higher quality; i.e. cannot afford to spend $100 on something elite like an Innokin iTaste right now.
P.S. I've not had even ONE cigarette since I switched! I can't believe it... Nothing has ever worked before. Thank you to everyone for helping me find this alternative method and get set up... Without you guys, I'd have consumed 1620 cigarettes over the last 54 days and spent at least $650!
Oh yeah, since this is at the end of a thread and nobody may end up reading this... I'll copy and paste this into a new post and redirect to it with a link, right here: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/general-e-smoking-discussion/581962-what-battery-should-i-upgrade-point.html#post13645534

its not so much they are making a product that ruins tanks,its that there are a lot of tanks being made with lower grade plastic. some how the juice manufacturers got all the blame. i have plastic tanks that will take anything i put in them. others i know not to use the so called tank crackers. tanks with thinner plastic and colored tanks are more apt to crack than lets say a genuine esmart tank. so we are part of the problem wanting cool colors. juice makers post warnings in part to protect themselves from liability and so as not to alienate vendors who may be supplying them with other merchandise.

Some e-liquids take a bit of time to work their evil ways, my only thought on the subject of why the make juices that can attack certain plastics is that people enjoy these flavors.
I tend to wonder more why people market products that are able to be damaged by a particular eliquid.
Yes glass is fragile to some extent, but it is always impervious to the e-liquids we use.

It can be harmfull. I am sure as I lived this with a polycarbonate tank and pepermint e-juice made with TFA flavor.
My tank started to melt and the vapor had a very strong chemical flavor. It took less than one hour of vaping before it became unbearable when I notice the tank clouding. Breathing the chemical mixure has to be bad for the human body.

Beat me to it! I was just scrolling through to see if anyone had already linked this thread.
I ended up getting two Kanger Protank 2 Minis that have pyrex tanks... So now all the Dream Tea, Pina Colada, Pink Lemonade, Rainbow Sherbet and others are finally getting used
I had some of these, found them to be incredibly top heavy on an ego type batt, which is what I use
Let the finger pointing begin.
Maybe something will happen to make them all "get on the same page".
Right now, I'm sorta tired of losing money, having my clearomizers that I paid hard earned $$ for ---- melt, get cloudy, or crack, or have my o-rings degrade, etc. etc. etc.
I shouldn't have to engage in a major "research project" every time I want to use a juice or a clearo, should I?
(As long as somebody figures out how to explain this appropriately to the FDA, I really don't care who's fault it is.......I may as well say that, since that day is gonna come whether i say it or not)

Notice how popular the hoarding thread is ? So you CAN say it.
I have a CE4 too, how much juice did you fill your tank with? Up to 100% full? I'm hoping a partial fill will not cause as severe a damage...
If you only put your little finger in fire, will it burn less ?
Seriously, some plastic should be forbidden as the chemical mixure resulting from the tank melting is very aggressive when it becomes obvious and than you realise that you have been vaping for a while and breathing this foul mixure....

Sorry to say, nope, the amount you fill it to won't matter. If you put enough in to use it, it will crack it. 
I noticed that some of the really expensive Innokin iTaste models can't take all the flavors... That's kind of a bummer because I wanted to upgrade to something really nice, but I need something that won't break. Right now I'm using a Kanger EVOD basic battery from a starter kit and a Kanger Protank 2 Mini pyrex tank.
