Cheap tank recommendations for testing flavors.

[mgb_]

Im looking to buy several tanks (5-10) for testing flavors and flavors I vape occasionally. Where can I get the cheapest tanks that are somewhat decent? I usually punch my own cartos so if they sell just the tanks for cheaper that would be great.

So fare I found myvapestore.com has Pro DCTanks for $8.5 and DCTank for $4.50. What's the difference? Can I find.them cheaper somewhere else?

Also, can I use XL boges in the DCTanks or do I need to use cartos with the bottom flanges?

Thanks.

If I were you, I'd do what I do. I use a small capacity ce3. They are clear, so you can see the viscosity of the juice. There's no polyfill to possibly alter the juice taste. Unlike a cartomizer, a ce3 can be emptied and rinsed and a different flavor can then be used - while a carto needs to be dedicated to a particular flavor or thrown out because they are too difficult to try to clean. These are small capicity (1ml) and that's all you need to test a flavor.

Smokeless Image just released an exclusive bottom coil ce3 this week.

Easy-fill top, no syringe needed. They will be releasing a 3 ml clearomizer that is bottom coiled in a couple of weeks. Both are 808 threaded devices, but they will work on any 510 battery with a 510-to-808 adaptor, which is what I use on my Provari, Silver Bullet, and BB.

I know you were asking about tanks, but might I suggest buying an atty and just dripping a few drops to taste it? I used to use tanks to try out juice, but the cleaning between tasting was a pia. Just my

The Smoktech DCT Pro (for polypropylene) are a great, relatively inexpensive way to start a collection of carto tanks. That's how I started my collection and eventually started to also collect pyrex and clearo tanks.

The difference between the two DCT tanks that you were inquiring about basically comes down to the tube material. The cheaper tank uses the clear polycarbonate tube, which is susceptible to some juices being able to crack or melt it. The more expensive tank uses the frosted polypropylene plastic, which is immune to those said juices. My first ever tank was the cheaper version, I ended up throwing it out after a couple of days as the polycarbonate tube warped and leaked juice. I haven't had one issue with the polypropylene tanks.

I got my tanks from MyVaporStore and PBDragon, and yes that is a nice price. You can use the Boge XL cartos in the DCT tanks, and also use single coil Smoktech DCT instead of the dual coils that they come with. I get mine directly from Smoktek with the pre-drilled holes. I also highly recommend that you get the tank accessory tool from Big Daddy Vapor called the Slap Yo Momma. It will cut the time to assemble and fill/refill your tanks in half and also protect your tank's end cap 0-rings from being damaged by the sharp edges on the end of the carto.

You might also look into Smoktek's version of the Vivi Nova, called the Smoktek Titan or Screw Tank. Easy fill, twist off top, and use a replaceable clearomizer head so there's no polyfill to mess with taste or clog. Where the current Vivi tanks use polycarbonate, the Smoktek uses the safer polypropylene.

Whilst I love my tanks and cartos, I keep a few 510 attys on hand for just dripping and tasting. it really beats trying to get flavors out of tanks etc between flavor changes...

the cheapest route is diy. check out this thread and you can make dozens of your own tanks for very cheap

I direct drip into an atty. I can try a few hits and then dry burn in and try another. I always try new juices like that to determine if they are worthy of my ViVi Novas.
