Yeah...these definitely needed the visibility, as they are a great product at a great price!

I ordered one of these a couple of days ago, then went to YouTube to see if there were any reviews.

Glad to see you're review of the IBTanked tank... you're reviews are always excellent!

Can't wait to try this one out! (I should have ordered a spare clear tube! Seems I ALWAYS think of something I left out after any ecig related order)

Yeah...I need to get a clear tube too, if for no other reason than "just because"! OCD is working on a new tank size as well, so that may be "coming soon".

But at $5 for the clear tube and $20 for the end caps...it's the best deal around!

Hey Basil, Due to your mistake in the review sayin the caps were $19 for the pair they have been repriced to match the review :) Call it the permanent Basil discount.

Standard carto length tubes will be up today and in about three weeks the larger 1" diameter Standard and XL tubes and caps will be available. Pricing will be slightly higher for those but we will keep it as low as we can.

Maybe it wasn't a mistake! MUHUHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

But, I'm amped for the larger diameter tanks! Might be time to find new homes for my non-OCD tanks. Poor little guys, they get no love now.

So you will sell regular carto length this week? Been lurking your site all week and was just about to get a couple boxes of xl cartos just so I could use your tanks, but I already have 8 boxes standard cartos at home. So I'm glad I saw your post in the nic (pun) of time.

EDIT: AND THEY ARE LIVE!
Goes and places his order with a smile on his face. First Swede who orders?

I just got mine in the mail and it really is awesome. I opted for the acrylic caps in "finch" with a plain XL tube. Less than $22 shipped! And they shipped it in this pretty cool pill container/film canister thing. Probably reduces the amount of packing material and bubble wrap that gets tossed and I'll definitely find a use for the container.

Gotta see if the offspring can paint Archer on one for me. Danger zone!!!

Got my three OCD tanks yesterday. They are the XL size and use the XL size cartos such as Smoktech DCT. The glass is well-finished on the ends, surprisingly thick, the acrylic endcaps hug both the cartos and glass tubes snuggly. Incredible value if you are looking for a slim pyrex tank.

The bottle the tanks come in are called the "thingy" because it was discovered fiddling with your thingy will fill the carto. The length was chosen to fit nicely with a cartomizer installed so you can easily carry a spare tank loaded and ready to go in your pocket or purse with no worries of it leaking.

With a freshly filled tank you dont have to bother putting any juice in the new cartomizer. Just drop it into the thingy and screw the lid on and off (fiddling) several times and it will pump the liquid into the cartomizer through the hole.

This really is pretty fantastic, about the easiest, cleanest way to fill a carto plus it fill from the bottom ensuring the liquid is where it should be. Also handy if you are using juice that doesnt keep up with the wicking and the carto begins to taste like it is running lean, again just drop it into the thingy and fiddle with it a little.

So much versatility, shipping protection, sealed storage and a juice pump. The thingy is pretty amazing for a silly little bottle you get for free ;)

I'm holding off until I can actually order the SS tank caps, but then I'll be placing my order. They have the "add to cart" option on the site, but when you go to check out it says they are unavailable right now. They should have that fixed soon though.

Just curious... Do you notice any taste or performance difference between the acrylic caps and any tanks you have with SS caps?

A little innovation goes a long way... Very cool! :D

I just got one of these today. Not to doubt Basil as I've valued the reviews and opinions alot, but this was one of those 'seemed too good to be true' kinda things. Well, this thing is awesome! SO stoked! Thick pyrex but not ridiculous, nicely machined SS caps that fit perfectly (as in nice smooth lines with respect to the tube) yet not heavy. Perfect! And you can get standard length...no cutting down a dct size!

I just cant get over the quality, and at only $24!! And the CS was top notch too...great response to ?s, ordered Tues, had it today, coast to coast.

I agree as well that my other 2 tanks just saw the light of retirement.

I just had to share...+1000 to Basil, these things rock!

While the new colored caps are cool and all...

I'm more excited to see the CAT that OCD has been working on! Dude has some serious vaping smarts! :vapor:
