Can't wait for the postman.

[Davantrac]

Sat waiting for orders is killing me. $150 spent at fasttech, $80 spent at Killer juice, €30 at Bargain Vapours about £40 on eBay, it's like Christmas coming early for me.
Can't wait for the postman.

Hope he doesn't bring any letters from the bank to spoil things

.. and how are you going to explain the explosion of e-cig deliveries to your other half?




or maybe you are lucky like that.

Oh she's a sweetheart. I tell her how much I'm saving by not buying the nasties that she still on before I tell how much I'm spending lol.

 

[Davantrac]

Hope I can find something I like among all this. The only thing I'm enjoying so far is the aniseed.

You have a couple of tank crackers in there

Dont forget to post your reviews

 

[Davantrac]

Never had a problem as yet, just been lucky I guess. But I have heard about tanks cracking, think the pineapple is maybe one to watch but not sure on the rest. If you think any could be a bit iffy let me know please.

This is a list of tank crackers - (not every brand will crack them for certain, but I've had a couple in the past.)

[Davantrac]

To be honest that just looks like a list of potentially everything and a waste of a comment, might as well have said any juice may crack your plastic tank.
I have used cola of different makes on a few occasions and my all day vape is aniseed and I do like absinthe very similar to aniseed and never cracked or damaged a tank in my short history of vaping, probably close to a year now. All my tanks are plastic at the moment but I am trying to change that slowly.
But maybe the problem is not the juice, maybe it's the tank. I know some clones are rubbish and yes I have wasted my money on some, maybe they are cheap quality tanks out there as well. But to just list cola for example as a tank cracker is rediculous.
But thanks for the reply.

 

[Pictor]

But thanks for the reply.

I didn't carefully read the list. Mostly, I use flavours that tend to be OK.

I'm mostly using mini Nautilus, MOW and mPT2, and they're glass.
I do still use one or two basic Evods though, and recently had an Apple Pie one break the plastic mouthpiece off two ...I'd forgotten by the time I used it again!
I've had a lime and also a lemon one frost clearomisers in the earlier days, and also a cappuccino one that broke the top clean off two - thought that one very odd!

I don't think every brand of a flavour will do it ..just one of those things.
I do remember seeing the odd site that will warn of tank cracking on every item ...just to cover themselves most likely, so not a lot of help.

 

[vince01]

I believe that the problem doesn't occur with all plastics

just the polycarbonates

Next question :- how do you find out which tanks are polycarbonates

Answer :- try a juice and see if it cracks

 

[Davantrac]

I just find it hard believe that a juice is a tank cracker, I'm not saying it doesn't happen. Has anyone actually bought a "tank cracker" and proved it cracks tanks and then put the exact same juice in more, different make and model tanks and watched them crack. Scientifically I find it hard to believe that it's the juice only that's a cracker.

 

[vince01]

I think it's only the flavouring that's a problem

no doubt someone with a background in chemistry

would have an explanation, I dont think that it's coincidence that

flavours like citrus, watermelon, cherry and banana seem

to be so often cited as crackers

 

[Davantrac]

Yes I agree but why do they only crack some tanks? And has that same bottle of tank cracker cracked every tank it was put in? Or is there a weakness in some tanks? It's just the my brain works at times when I'm bored

 

[vince01]

As I said earlier i've only heard of polycarbonates being affected

 

[Shirtbloke]

It's not scientific but I've had 3 evods go from using citrus liquids. The ones that I've never used for citrus are all doing fine.

 

[twgbonehead]

If you get a real tank-cracker you'll know it. I have a couple of juices that will literally dissolve a head like a CE4 within 30 seconds. The plastic just dissolves and the head falls apart. (And yes, it's very repeatable as I found out to my chagrin when I stupidly tried the same juice in another head).

I have heard reports of other juices that attack the heads more slowly; haven't had that happen to me.

 

[Davantrac]

Sounds real interesting, would love to see this happen. And if it does that to plastics, what's it doing to our lungs?

Manufacturers site should give such details.

Has anyone actually bought a "tank cracker" and proved it cracks tanks and then put the exact same juice in more, different make and model tanks and watched them crack. Scientifically I find it hard to believe that it's the juice only that's a cracker.

As in my earlier post, I had two Evod tops break off with an Apple Pie which was of course fine in a glass tank.
I had two that frosted the tanks and another that broke the tops off three eSmart Clearomisers.

Yes I agree but why do they only crack some tanks? And has that same bottle of tank cracker cracked every tank it was put in? Or is there a weakness in some tanks? It's just the my brain works at times when I'm bored

After losing two perfectly good Evods, I wouldn't want to try another plastic one. Same went for the eSmart Clearomisers (thought I had a faulty box of them at first).

Sounds real interesting, would love to see this happen. And if it does that to plastics, what's it doing to our lungs?

It's a pain to have the top break off minutes after refilling a nice clean tank! Quite a shock too as they were actually being used at the time ...just broke off and fell to the floor!

I suspect it's a particular ingredient that is only in some flavour brands, so not in every one of the same type. My four were Apple Pie, one brand of Cappuccino, a Lime and a Lemon. I also had throat problems with the three fruit ones too.

 

[Davantrac]

Maybe some kind of legal steps should be taken to legislate against this type of stuff, a bit like the food industry. I know I don't like the government stepping in, but in this case safety first comes to mind.

 

[Shirtbloke]

The manufacturers are stepping up on this. You can now buy glass evods that won't have the problem. I suspect the plastic ones will disappear within a year.
