Wish I had your luck, lol... ive busted all but two of mine and currently looking to buy new tubes. Nice thing is my end caps are fine and tubes are not expensive.: )

Btw, I've been vaping over a year and most of that year has been carto tanks exclusively. I tried many, okay nearly all clearos before I made the switch. Still buy new clearo here and there and they all sit in the drawer. Maybe I'll pull em out and swap em in the PIF threads :)
I've heard good things about Phiniac tanks and I may try one someday. I've dropped my IBTanks on concert twice without breakage. Except for the thinner 15mm tanks, they seem reasonably thick.

hey, yall! Since you are carto enthusiasts here, figured I'd pop in and post my question. I have a carto tank that's leaking all the time. I'm assuming that it's the carto and not the tank because it leaks on the center pin. Is it just a bad carto from the batch? I've put other cartos in other tanks and no leaking. Wondering if I should just chuck that carto, or if it could possibly be the tank somehow. Thanks!

I use carto tanks, they have their perks - can vape in any direction, will hold some liquid without a tank (slim profile), disposable, easy. Good for traveling.

Having said that, I like the Nautilus better. Could be considered a carto tank of sorts, works on the same concepts, but their new bvc coils are awesome and I prefer the smaller form factor.

RBAs are great, can pull some of the best flavor and best vapes, cheap to maintain, but not always as travel friendley and has a learning curve.

There are always tradeoffs with anything, many people have several different devices used in a day, but each has their advantages.

My advice? Do both. Use the RBAs if you can learn at home and bring a carto/nautilus setup for the road.

How big are the holes?

    If it's a drop or two occasionally that's fine, if it's big drops and constant, I change it out.
