I recently purchased a VVV Polypro carto tank and love it. Very inexpensive $10 with Boge carto included. Has side fill hole. No leaks, tight fit, all is good. It's not the prettiest thing in the world but works great.

For $40 you could buy FOUR VVV 5ml tanks with side fill. Can't beat that value. Run different juices in each one for variety :)

Well... as Valley View is having a 15% off sale starting tomorrow, I'll be getting a 7ml Sidewinder pyrex tank for myself, and a 3ml PolyPro SW for the wife... who, as of today, I finally talked into quitting cigs and starting vaping!!!!!!!!!!!!

The IBTanked... give it a week for the shock to wear off and the wife to get dialed in, and I'll snag a few from them as well. This is just as much a hobby as a life requirement, so I see myself out-pacing Baditude and hazozita... some day. :laugh:

The most important thing, about all this vaping stuff..........Congrats on quitting smoking cig's! Enjoy the vaping, a wonderful alternative to smoking that I hope you will stick to, and all around you will enjoy that you did! :vapor:

I hope it turns out as nice as you think it will too. It seems like quite a nice piece for under $20, and I look forward to your review. If you'd be so kind as to PM me when you post a review, I'd love to read it.

To all that have posted so far... thanks! It seems that anything from IBTanked is well represented here and, at least with Baditude so far, the the Valley View tank is a good choice as well. The AGR is certainly interesting and well worth a look.

Terrific! So far, so excellent!

Well, I just got it today. going to be setting it up here in a few hours, but then out the door so I won't get to write up anything till tomorrow at least. The build quality is amazing. Comparing it to the glass in the two IBtanks I have here, the glass in the AGR+ is thicker. Perfectly clear, no bad edges.

It all goes together very nicely. I haven't filled it but I have built it with both standard size and XL cartos to make sure both tubes fitted properly, and everything fits together nicely. Snug, no rattling, shaking.

The only thing I can say so far about the entire thing is that the fill hole screw will block you from using some driptips with wide bases. You can either use a different drip tip, use one of those drip tip extenders, or use the normal size tube with a XL carto, which will let the carto hang out the top just enough to lift the drip tip above the screw.

Like I said, I haven't filled it up and vaped it yet but I will be in a few hours. The build quality is a nice as I've seen, better then my RSST. It also fits on my vamo fine and vamo is properly detecting ohms.

EDIT: If anyone can direct me to the proper sub forum here to post a review (with pics, probably) I'll make sure to write up a nice one.
