Are tanks good???????

[speedemon]

Hi to all thought i would throw some of my experience out here.I have been vaping almost 3 yesrs now no more crappy cigs the stank and makes my mouth taste like !Any ways few things that have got me cig free,Provari,tanks,good carto and of cource juice.
At 1st i was not a big fan of tanks,leaks,flooding bla bla.Now once you have learned how a carto works best you will be able to use it in a tank with great success.I find 2 holes work best for me with 50/50 juice.My preference of cartos are dualcoil for now have some boge on the way to check out in tanks.I was not happy with boge without tank way to much refill,so might like them now.
The tanks out now work great when used propper.Don't need to top off much,carto stays wet no burning speede is happy.It can be a learning curve but yes well worth it.

Doesn't seem that any delivery options are perfect. The all have their quirks. I use tanks because I hate refilling and am often out of the house for long stretches of time. I find a big DCT will last me most of a day. But, I still have problems when I change carto's. Sometimes I get a dud, who doesn't, and sometimes new carto will taste ok, but not produce good vapor. I've tried priming them with 9-10 drops then a bunch of priming puffs. This works more often than not. I've also tried priming new carto's with 20+ drops. I have been less successful with this approach. Not sure if they are flooding or what, but they never seem to produce good vapor when started like this. So, still learning!

a) DCT and arry tanks are ok if your juice if it is not a cinnamon and im ok with any other juice
B) big daddy tanks like them a lot since they came out with window is still good but sometime i have issue with that small window. No leaking or sliding issue.
c) Phiniac tanks, these pyrex really do the job well. No leaks and sliding issue

Well for me tanks has no issue but the carto's.. even if you soak it well, i mean a new carto it will somehow DOA, last a few hour or superbly fine till 2 weeks..

I love tanks. I probably would have quit vaping if I hadn't found a tank system I liked. The alternatives are basically dripping or plain cartomizers. Too much fiddling for me, but then again I'm a heavy vaper

When I started vaping, I ordered the 3.5 Smok tank and it was a disaster. No matter what I did, the juice would not feed into the cart regularly unless I did hard dry pulls to bring it in (later learning about the whole punching/slotting thing). It sucked and I just bailed on the idea. Later after trying different options (EMDCC, Stardusts), I ended up finding and loving the Boge 2.0s. For me they gave the best vape of anything. I was happy, but that quickly went away when I realized I was topping off the Boge quite often...it got old. No too long ago, I re-visited the tank system, but still maintaining the Boge 2.0s. That was my best vaping decision yet. I am perfectly happy because I get the vape of a boge 2.0, with the convenience of a tank. I think this is an ideal combination for me, as it's a no fuss system. I didn't like the process of clearomizers, having to rebuild/re-wick them....seemed like I was always having to tweak things. This a pain-free/maintenance free system. When my 85 cent Boge starts to go, I switch it out.

As far as the prep, I punch the cartos, condom fill to prime, slip it into the tank, and I'm gtg.

I can't say that boge cartos plus a phiniac tank are as good as it gets, since I haven't tried anything else with success, but they sure work for a good vape, good flavour and hassle free filling. I love the convenience and satisfaction that I get from this setup.

If you don't mind me asking... Where do you get your Boge 2.0's for 85 cents?

Co-ops here on ECF. Actually, the last co-op with 10 boxes purchased + the shipping cost came to 78 cents per. *Note, that is for regular size, not XLs

A little bit more than 85 cents a piece. But still a heck of a bargain in my book. Plus they can split 'em 50/50 for you, if you want 2.0 and 3.0 ohm.

What do you use to punch the carto's? I bought a saddle valve today, punched 1 carto with it and bent the sharp piece of the valve. Maybe I should have went somewhere besides Ace Hardware.

 

[drewbalicious]

I personally use this COV Carto Punch v3

Not the cheapest tool out there. But I had the saddle valve for awhile and just got plain fed up with it. I'm an avid tank user, so the $40 is money well spent for me. But the saddle valve works too. To each their own.

I've had great luck with 510-t tanks, atties last me a month or so on average, the tank drips juice nicely onto it, no leaks, great taste, no filler. Like someone said everything has its downside and with this it only takes half a ml of juice, but I don't vape that much so this isn't a big deal for me. Still though, it only takes 30 seconds to fill it, pop off the plastic cap and squeeze a little juice into it, pop the top back in and pop the tank back in. I've no idea why so few of us use these, almost a year using them with my Darwin and since it's so small I can close the arm no problem, it was built for the thing really.

I did my time with the t-tanks. Actually my first year of vaping I used them almost exclusively. I think it's only natural to progress onto something a little bigger/better. Heavy vapers like myself find that filling the little 1ml plastic tanks can get tiresome. Even if you carry extras around with you it can still get cumbersome. But a 5ml tank can last even a heavy vaper quite awhile.

I love my tanks. I am using sandblasted tanks from Phiniac Rugged Pyrex Glass Tanks. Beautiful, simple,.... with their tank tool, EASY to fill. I have 5 of them bad boys, all fully loaded. Using 3.0 Smoketek single coil tank cartos with Boge XL 3.0 on the way to try.

Love my Liquinator tank! Really, I can not Imagine vaping with so much joy without it! cartos last longer, taste better!
