I bought a Phiniac, IBTank, AGR tank, and Boge F16 tank. Figured I'd post up a comparison shot so people can see how they look on the device.
Note, all of these tanks are Regular, not XL except for the F16, as that's the only option for that tank.
In order from left to right and my thoughts.
AGR Tank - My least favorite. There was a piece of metal flashing under an O-ring that lead to leaking Boba's Bounty... I had a spare O-ring from the Phiniac tank that is a perfect match. AGR doesn't include any spare O-rings (which sucks), but does come with both Regular and XL plastic tank sections, so it can be set up with either regular or XL carto's. The great thing about this tank is it's a perfect traveler. The way it's designed truly locks the carto and tank together. They can't slide apart.
Phiniac - I really wish it didn't overhang at all. Extremely tight O-rings means it's very secure. I have SS caps on the way for it. I like the hand-blown and imperfect look of it. It's different. Glass is very thick and rugged.
IBTank - MY FAVORITE. It's gorgeous, the O-rings are very tight and strong, less so than the Phiniac, which is okay. The SS caps are perfect and minimal in size. Tank is Glass, so it's safe for all juices. I'd love for them to offer a 22mm diameter to match the VAMO perfectly, but they only have 19 and 25mm. This is 19mm. This tank is a great complete kit. Comes with a tank/o-ring drip tip/tool, spare O-rings, carto, and thingy.
Boge F16 - This tank comes with a Boge F16 carto, which is smaller in diameter than a regular carto. I believe regular carto's will fit, and that's good, because this tank slides up and down the F16 carto with ease... That said, the drip tip (came with one) is very snug and stops the tank from sliding off. Unfortunately, this is the only drip tip that will fit the F16 carto. I'll definitely swap carto's after this tankful. Tank section is plastic like the AGR.
