This thing is sexy!! I just got my Pro tank in the mail today, thank you Myvaporstore. I washed it inside and out with hot water and let it dry. Checked the two coils on my VAMO and went with the lower ohms of the two... which says 2.6ohm on the VAMO. The other said 2.8ohm. I love how the logo lines up with my VAMO screen and buttons. It kinda makes me wish I had a chrome or stainless VAMO. I filled this sucker with Chuck Norris Blood, it's kind of an airy draw but not bad. Those who drill out their AGA's will like it I think. I like it as is. I let it sit for 15min before I vaped on it just to make sure the coil was saturated and it is great. The flavor is awesome, the vapor is HUGE and the mouthpiece is a good, comfortable shape. The bottom threads into the tank smoother and easier than the EVOD or MT3's do. This is a great quality tank with good weight to it. So far the wick seems fine, we will see about gurgling or flooding later on but so far, I am VERY impressed. All I can say is pick one up.

I got the same setup going, oddly I vaped it while reading your post and got the rattlesnake effect. That rattlesnake thing is really odd, I got it once before about 2 months ago, and again just now. Anyway I really like this tank, I think I will slowly move to glass, I now have two glass delivery systems, the ProTank and the AGA T+, love them both. Happy Vaping.

Are you using the VAMO on n02 (rms)?

Yes, its really not that annoying, only hear it when I am not inhaling. Anyway if it behaves like it did the first time, once I take the tank off and refill it, it will be gone. Still love the Protank, wouldn't hesitate to get another.

I just picked one up yesterday from my local B&M store. First tank was a strawberry lemonade type juice and flavor was ok and vapor was good. Not quite as airy as I thought it would be from the reviews. A little more than ideal for me but acceptable. Second tank was a dark black cavendish and it tasted like burnt plastic. Nasty, nasty. I drained that, cleaned it back up and loaded my favorite juice, Unicorn blood, burnt plastic taste is gone but flavor is weak compared to a REO bottom feeder and an ERA which is what I usually run that flavor on. Vapor is good tho. Will see if the flavor comes through as the wick breaks in.

Quality control is going to be a huge issue on these as mentioned before. My Protank has a rough edge on the top of the mouthpiece where the chrome plating is flaked off and the brass is exposed and almost jagged. Not good. I like the concept but I think you will have to be one of the lucky ones who gets a 'good one' to be really happy with it. I have a couple of buddies who bought one at the same time and they both love theirs. Me, not so much yet.

Hopefully the flavor gets better. Could always dip the tip at an angle and rotate it in some kind of non toxic liquid rubber to coat it.

That's EXACTLY why Kanger should develop a second generation Protank with more capacity and non-integrated drip tip. Are you listening Kanger? I hope so. Just incase, here's my rant in Chinese:

這也正是為什麼康爾應制定一個第二代Protank的,更大的容量和非集成滴水葉尖。你聆聽康爾嗎?我希望如此。

I got mine and I am not loving it. Everything you say I agree with except forthe draw. The draw is so light, your sucking air. I just cant deal with it. the coils are amazing I have been through 3 tanks and it still is like new. I purchased a pro tank and 5 coil pack which I have to chalk up to another mistake. If they could make a device like this with an adjustable airflow, and allow you to use your own drip tip's it would be great. Tried the Vapeonly BCC it is great when it works but a lot of leaking and very poor build quality. For me they have not relly improved on VIVI Nova but they are getting there. Frustrated to have purchased both these devices and cant get no satisfaction heheheheh
