I'm currently using Biansi iMist 900MHz batts w/ CeE5 rebuildable clearos. Previously I used Echo 808 batts & CE4 disposable clearos.
I use a Locking BFC tank with a 2.0 ohm carto.
Never liked clearomizers, or using cartos straight.

Using vision nano's and kanger t3 clearos, been thinking of trying a tank tho..
I have tried most of the clearomizer types and have not had much luck. 98% of the time they tasted burnt-regardless of which device and voltage/wattage. Also, the flavor was very muted. Today, I received the Kanger EVOD and after 2 refills I am still pleasantly surprised. Not a single burnt taste-on several devices as well as various voltage/wattage setting. And the biggest surprise is how flavorful my juice tastes. Besides the EVOD, for the past 2 years I always ended up staying with either a boge or a dualcoil carto-with 2 or 3 holes punched and in a carto tank. In my experience that setup gives me the most consistant hit and best flavor. For sure they involve more time tinkering than the clearos but just perform better for me. Again the new EVOD is looking promising though.
T3's !. I just change the coil base before every refill. Stops "frying" the juice especially if i only half fill the tank. Now the fluid stays clear right down to the end. I recoil when they break, saves buying new ones. Recoiling a T3 isn't easy though. But i am perfectly happy with T3's. Good flavour plenty of vapour and with the right juice a nice smooth th using 100% vg 3.6 - 4.5 mg nicotine. Menthol is excellent !. To recoil a T3 i cut the ends off of a cue tip and slice down one side with a razor blade then open it up. Soak the wick in glycerine and place it in the open tube then roll it in my fingers to make to tube tight. Then i get another two cue tip tubes and slide each onto either end of the split tube to keep it tight. Tightly wrap Kanthal wire round the split tube a few times then dismantal the whole thing and slide the coil onto the wick. It's all pretty fiddly. If you folks can wrap a coil round a wick without shredding the wick i'd like you tell to me how you do it. The way i am doing it works fine. Is there an easier way ?.
Before then, i would use the CE4 clearomizers but after realizing that they broke down quite quickly, i switched to the viva nova series. As of now, i'm using the mt3 kanger and it's been working great. Flavor is on point and it last me an entire day because it holds almost 3ml of liquid. Yeah, i know.. 3ML!!
Boge dual-coil cartos, DCTs, and for dripping, 510 (single- and dual-coil) and a 306. I've never tried a clearo.
I'm finding that some flavours rock when dripping or in a tank, but once I put them in a carto they taste lame, even though they still produce good vapor. Not all flavours, just some of them.

When I first began vaping I used Boge 2.0 ohm single coil cartos (1 ml). After 1 month I switched to Smok Tech XL 1.7 single coil cartos (1.8 ml). Next I used a carto+and tank (3ml) setup. When the cracking and wicking issues were resolved I got into Startdusts (1.6 ml). I now use the Mini Vivi Nova (2.0 ml) rebuildables as I feel they give a better draw and are far superior in quality. It is VERY important to match the correct ohms delivery device to the PV we are using otherwise, dry hits or a weak vape will occur.
Although I my main delivery device is the Vision Mini Vivi Nova I occasionally treat myself to a Smok Tech XL 1.7+ tank on occasion.
Cart+ tank. Carto lasts before tight draw begins:
dark juice- 50- 60 ml
light juice- 80-90 ml
Vision Min Vivi Nova- at least 8+ weeks with some maintenance- still firing at that point but wicks beginning to shred.

Cartos on their own last about 1 week

Flavor best on an atty. Next carto and finally Vivi Nova. I found tanks weaken the flavor so I add extra flavor.
Res makes a HUGE diff. I like a warm vape and use 1.8 ohms at 3.7- 4.0 volts. Here's a voltage/ ohms chart:

I have been vaping for about 2 months now and have loved the dripping atomizer for flavor tasting and being around the house, but for my favorite juice, Mr.Brown flavors by Joe, i hold in a Jtank Cartomizer Tank. I love the Boge LR cartos as they are always handy and i always have one lying around somewhere.
3 BOXES, SMOKTECH C.C.V. DUAL COIL XL (1.5 or 1.25ohms)
I run these on a Provari V2. They are fiddle free, dirt cheap, and disposable.

I have a Mini Vivi Nova and it's the only thing I've tried that has a wick and that I genuinely like. My first pair of carto + tank lasted about a month. Not sure what I did right then or what I'm doing wrong now.
"2mg X 15 ml per week" Perhaps part of my problems lies here. That's 30 mg, which would take me maybe 3 hours....
Have used them for 6 months...at one point was getting 300 ml out of each head. A friend prolly puts about 500 ml through his before he changes the head.
My issue with the Novas is I dry them up real fast. It's tougher to dry up a tank.
I run the mini nova and have no real complaints except when you chain vape itll dry up and youll taste the burning
I started off using a mini vivi nova, but found I had to keep refilling it very often. Moved up to the 3.5ml vivi nova. Now I'm using a 5ml Z atty pro. Big jump, but very satified.
