About to run over this tank

[buildabane]

..with my car, and then see how well it works. My primary tank right now (not for much longer)..sucks. Iclear30b with the rotating drip tip. I swear this thing is the most temperamental piece of equipment ever. Sometimes, it works GREAT and I get really awesome flavor. The other half of the time I use it, I fill it and let it wick up, and after about four puffs it begins gurgling and juice starts dripping onto my MVP connector, and then out the air holes. I have absolutely no idea why. I keep it clean, I use coils that fit properly, I don't over-fill, it has all the o-rings in the right spots. In addition, the draw is really airy and I have to take about three puffs to get a good mouth to lung. I guess this thing is just going to go on my POS list. I have no idea how to stop this leaking and gurgling. Does anybody have any experience with these? I am going to buy a new tank, it is just a matter of when. I can afford a pro-tank 2 OR 3 right now...Shop has them for $14.99 and $20.99. Should I grab one of these or just wait another week and pick up a Kanger Aero? My backup tanks are all shot to shizzle right now as well - And I damn near bought myself a can of chew out of frustration this morning (almost, but I didn't). Any tips? Any advice on the tank? Can't afford to spend an arm and a leg so the protanks and the aero are looking mighty good right now.

That's just how the i clear are, I gave up on them pretty quick too, get the Nautilus with bvc.coil coils unless you feel game for rebuilds, Nautilus isn't 100% fault free but the difference will still amaze you

The Nautilus looks awesome, but its out of my price range. I spent a lot on new juices with higher VG contents this week, and I operate on a strict budget for vaping supplies so I don't surpass what I would normally be spending on tobacco. I think I may just go for the Kanger Aero. It may not be perfect, but as long as it delivers a good flavor and it works consistently I am ok with it.

Look into the Silo tank. The miniature one is 15 bucks and in stock on the beyond vape website. Those take BVC coils and apparently are made by the same people who made aspire. The aerotank is pretty good, I've been impressed by it. I bought replacement coils and they weren't the real ones I guess because they have 2 little holes where the juice goes in, rather than 2 slots on either side. The ones I got don't wick anywhere near as well. The Aerotank mega is an impressive vape for what it is

I figured what I would do with it is give it away to some one on the boards. I read that there is a section for that? It would make me feel warm and fuzzy to send a winner a free tank (crap tank or not) and a bottle of juice I don't need (Sinful by Demonic, Awesome 50/50 that tastes like Boston cream pie, and it has been steeped )

I had an iclear30 once, didn't run over it with my car but i did manage to crack the tank by throwing it in anger.
Piece of ..... tank.

What kills me is that when it DOES work....The flavor is unreal. Bah!

PIF is not enough characters.... *sigh*

Brick beat me to it! lol I have the Nautilus (Full size) and the Silo (mini) between the two I like the Silo better.

Can over-priming the clearo/coils cause flooding?

I had a friend who bought the same tank. He got so frustrated with it at work one day he asked if I wanted to try and get it to work for me, if not he was going to trash it. I brought it home, cleaned it, and have had no trouble out of it. I've only used it a few times, but no issues. If you'll pm me your addy, I'll send you a pro tank 2 or a mini protank 3 that I don't use anymore, so you can continue to save your money for a good tank. Nothing wrong with either, I've just move to kayfuns for tanks when I use a tank

IMHO, the Protank II is better than an Aero for flavor. I actually think it tastes better than my Nautilus Mini. I have the Nautilus Mini, the Protank II, the Aerotank Mega and Mini, and iClear 16's, and an iClear X.1. I DO NOT use the iClears anymore at all. Even when they work right, they taste like poo, compared to the Naut and Pro.

But, that's just my opinion.
