A Quest for Glass / Pyrex Tanks

[mtdewfreak]

Ok, so I got a Duo Clean tank from the classies and I really like it but it's fiddly. I like the way it looks on the Twist and Provari. I don't like it that when I take it apart to clean it well, it's a PITA to get all of the O rings exactly back into their proper locations. If the O rings are even slightly askew, the tank leaks. It is easy to fill and refill; just pull out the drip tip. It's a nice looking tank, but at that price point, I wasn't even going to consider purchasing it new. Phiniacs are still my fave glass tank.

Here's a pic from the website.

You can "create" one. I matched a CLEAR Phiniac pyrex tube with the endcaps of a Bella-Elegance tank from Hoosier Vapes. Let me be clear that it must be one of the clear tanks from Phiniac, as the colored tanks have a different inner diameter and the HV caps won't fit those.

The Hoosier Vapes tank caps use a combination one-piece mouthpiece and top cap which twists onto the tube for easy juice filling.

Hoosier Vapes now has glass tubes as replacements for the polycarbonate tubes for their Bella-Elegance tanks if you don't want the Phiniac tube. They also have stainless steel caps (same style) instead of the acrylic.



Caps from Hoosier Vapes matched with color sand-blasted design on a Phiniac pyrex tube. Green e-liquid is Ecto Plasma.

Are you saying that the end caps are threaded and screw into the glass tubes?

No, they are NOT threaded. They are a press fit (or better, twisted on). Very snug fit, will not accidentally fall off.

I see. The Vision threaded tanks sort of spoiled me. I got so tired of having tanks pull apart when I tried pulling them out of my custom made leather holster. Dropped many a juice load in that holster pre threaded tanks. I'm getting the ProVari set up for one of my wife's nieces. I doubt she'll carry it in the holster anyway. So, probably very snug fitting caps would probably be good enough. One of my early pyrex barrells broke when I inserted the end caps. Early pyrex tanks were rather thin walled. Thanks again for the info.

I just got the smok PBC v1 & v2...... Pyrex tank, bottom coil, and a plastic sleeve that the top and bottom screw into. That sleeve also protects the Pyrex! No leaks !! No dry hits !! Big clouds even with a little eGo 650! Also got the new Innokin iclear 30B. Dual bottom coils!! Innokin claims the tank is impervious to any juice. Time will tell.
