Seems like I read earlier somewhere in this thread that a subtank mini or nano or something was a near-enough match to fit and not leak???

And anyone know of any other 19 or 20mm rta ? Read about a smok TFV4 Nano with rba head but can't find that for sale by itself anywhere either. Maybe I just have no google skills.

Really, really like this size of atty. Vast majority of the time, the more frequent (TOP) refills don't bother me at all. If it's a time where they will, I'll just throw on a KF4 or any whatever 22mm rta I have built... but for me the ease of portability and stealth of a small light setup is much preferred. And a 5 or 10ml or so bottle in other pocket.

Gem is a great atomizer, blanketed with negativity by a bunch of people who didn't take the time to figure out how to build it properly. If you want real MTL tanks here are a couple strong contenders.

Both of these have been mostly ignored. As much as I like the KFM3 it is on the storage rack.

Oops sorry... didn't know it was smaller

Yea, I bought the red headed step child. I don't regret it though. I absolutely love the vape and zero leaks. I gave my 2ml minis to my wife. She likes them a lot. I much prefer larger capacity.

Do you know if the 3.5ml clone fits on a pico? I have cloupors and VTCs so it probably doesn't matter but I don't like buying tanks that don't fit all my mods.

I looked at the merlin and would probably like it but I'll only experiment with new tanks after 8/8 passes. I'm totally concentrating on tanks/mods/parts of things I already know I love. We're too close to the reg date to experiment. I have a pretty sick stash of tanks with interchangeable parts right now but will only add to that and see how things change moving into the fall.

I have a hunch that China will be wide open for a couple years. But I will be fully prepared for the long term before I know that answer.

I need some advice on my # 3 Plus please
Just got it from FT
I have the small 3 and love it
This one seems almost not to have the juice control feature
I can only turn it once before it looks too loose and bobs around
Did not put juice in yet
On the little one I can turn it many times
Thanks

@LarryPer Not exactly sure..

But check the 2 o-rings on the build deck.. if broken or wrong size they will effect how JFC works.. and go from there..

Maybe just need some juice on them to completely close, might just be hanging up and you think the JFC is closed and it is not.

Maybe take them off if no problems are found.. and screw it together with-out them to verify threading is ok..

I received and have tested the moonshot glass with the chubby v3 plus.
They work. The glass appears identical and it fit right on. The part numbers are:
$13.61 Kayfun Mini V3 Plus Styled RTA Rebuildable Tank Atomizer - 3.5ml / stainless steel + glass / 24mm dia. at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping
$2.25 Replacement Glass Tank for Sigelei Moonshot RDTA Atomizer (5-Pack) 5-pack at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping
Thought you folks would like to know.
VERY happy to hear that. THANKS, Doc!!!

The one I have from FT is machined wrong and will not close off to fill, it floods. I need to open a ticket and send them a video.

Man, I have one of those on the way. PITA if I have to return it. Have you tried changing the o-ring? Sometimes they put the wrong size in there.
