Started with two Ego-C 650 batteries and a pair of clearomizers. Clearomizers went bad and started leaking. Looked at upgrading and picked up two new 900Mah batteries with LCD readouts that tells you how many puffs you get per charge. They screw into the same charger and clearomizers I had already. I am very happy with the batteries. The charge lasts forever and I am a heavy vapor.

Problem: Bought some nice new CE-6 (I guess that's what they are called) clearomizers that held a lot more and worked/looked great (were told they were just released). Was told they come apart and you can rebuild them (wicks, fittings, etc). Guess what? They started leaking where the plastic meets the aluminum fitting. Another crappy clearomizer.

So, I have two nice new 900Mah batteries and need two nice new tanks. I get confused when it comes to fittings and ohms and sizes and what will work. Can someone recommend a nice possible tank solution that will work with my batteries? Links please if allowed.

Stardust/CE4 V2, or CE4 V3(replacable) are actually pretty good for their price, they can be hit & miss sometimes but overall they are a decent clearo..

Those can be found all over the place, gotvapes, healthcabin, to name a couple.

If you haven't tried Vision Vivi Novas, you should. Whether you're into modding or not, they're basically one of the best clearos you can get.

I can see the higher quality in the Vision Vivi Novas from the pictures. The clear plastic tube has a screw on. The ones I have now are pressed on. Thanks you guys!

My favorite set-up (at the moment) is a carto tank, but I use a lot of (CE4) Stardusts and clones, when I want something small. I have a couple of mini vivi novas, but I don't care for them as much as other people do. I've heard good things about the Kangers, but I haven't tried them. I like the clearos because they are inexpensive. I get about 3 or 4 tankfuls out of them (sometimes I rinse them out in-between, sometimes I don't) and when they die I throw them away. I've found the clones work just as well, some even better, than the Vision/eGo name brand. When filled only about 3/4 of the way and blotted up the bottom hole before being put on a battery, they don't leak - mine don't anyway. http://www.smokerevolt.com/ce4s

My clearos worked great but have recently started leaking out the bottom. Every 10 minutes or so I got ti clean the battery post. What is causing that, just wore out?

Leaking out the bottom is a common problem. I figured out how to deal with it (at least it works for me). 1) When you fill it with liquid, don't fill it up all the way. Keep the juice below the bottom of the cap; 2) After filling, twist a small piece of paper towel and slide it up the center hole in the bottom. Repeat until the paper towel comes out dry, then put it on the battery. The clearos need to be tipped or twirled periodically to keep the wicks wet, but sometimes you can over do it, which can cause it to leak. If that happens, repeat step 2.

Using carto/tanks. But own 10 nova's. Still use em also. As for the ohms it all depends on what you enjoy. No one can tell you what to set your sweet spot at. Sorry but that's the way vaping is. I've got stuff I vape evey day that ranges from 1.8ohms to 3.0 ohms. Depends on the flavor and how I feel at the time. It's a life journey to learn where you want to be.

the t2s are hit or miss IME, I have a couple that are fine and a bunch that leak, which is a pain.
I have 2 vivi's though that I am quite fond of, they work really well with some juices, other juices they seem to weaken the flavour. It's all a matter of preference really! unfortunately sometimes you have to spend a bit of dough to find the right fit for you.

As for ohms, again personal choice, on my t2s and vivis I like 1.8 on my 3.7v battery
