best XL carto tank under $40/$50???

[dhomes]

hey guys,

I'm an advanced vaper now, normally use rba / rda / sub-ohm and what not. Have been doing it for the past year+.

On black friday I bought on the cheap some 50 XL cartomizers just to revisit this system.

But now I need a carto tank! since this is not my primary way of vaping I just want a decently looking (like silver caps without decor) but good XL carto that is below $40, maybe $50

Any recommendations?

Your help is appreciated.

IBTank is hard to beat......especialy if you just want Silver caps. Quality thick pyrex and very tight seals. Comes with a b unch of extra seals that I havent used yet.

Review of the IBTanked pyrex cartotank

Thank you all, it seems IBTank is the winner, too bad it doesn't have a fill port!

 

[cthulhufan]

Fill ports are no big deal when you have a good tank tool like the IB Tanked or the old Valley View unit.

I've been meaning to give one of these a try as they look pretty tight also:

I'm actually pleased that it doesn't have a fill port. Although those tanks have their fans, I'm not one of them. Trust me.

Many of the tanks with fill ports have inner pressure issues with the tank which can lead to flooding issues with the cartomizer. And then there is always the potential issue of losing the fill screw, which renders the tank useless. When you order a complete tank kit from IBTanked, you'll be given the option to get a tank filling tool, which allows filling the tank to be just as easy and fast as using a tank fill port.

I'm a cartotank guy. I've owned tanks from several manufacturers over the last 1 1/2 years of vaping, and to me the best value are the IBTanked. I currently own over a dozen of them in various sizes. I couldn't love them more.

Here's another vote for IBTanked (and their tank tool/drip tips).

You can get two IBTanked 19mm XLs for about $50. IMO thats a pretty good price considering the quality and extra o-rings.

I only have experience with the IBtanked offerings. Definitely not as glamorous as some I've seen. They are elegant in a understated way. Very well built, and work flawlessly so far for me. My Dad has two Kir Fanis tanks, and while their sexy tanks, I'll be ordering more from IBtanked! IMO, they are the best value for a high quality Pyrex tank.

Another vote for the IBT. I have 2, and wish I had 10!

I actually JUST got this fill tool in the vape mail yesterday, and I can't get it to work at all. I fill it, but the pressure inside the tank keeps the liquid from flowing out into the tank itself. (At least I assume that's what us happening) I even tried it on a smok tank wit the same result. Anybody else try one and have it work?

Another vote for IBTanked. Have 22mm halfling, 19mm halfling and 2 15mm halflings. One of them is in my pocket all day everyday.

Ok, I looked up some reviews online. You have to keep it tilted for the liquid to flow out. It worked. I think the regular filling tip is easier honestly.

IbTanked and Lokilabs SS1 tanks...

Yeah, that's what I was thinking after reading your initial report. Oh, well. Keep it simple stupid, right

 

[serenity21899]

IBTanked is about $25, Loki Labs SS1 is $50. I own both. Never had an issue with either one.

 

[rks1949]

I just recieved my first IBTanked tank. I'm really impressed at the quality of the tank. I will be ordering more soon!

The big daddy line of tanks is pretty good as well for under $40. I have had no issues with them over the last couple of years. It was the first tank that never leaked on me. Good customer Service as well.
