Hi all, had a good week for vapemail, and think I crossed over into "serious vaper" territory as well ;) Anyway, got a provari this week and I also got a couple of tanks to go along with it.

First off, the Kir Fanis Prive Special: Beautiful work of art! Not a single issue with it. This is probably a useless review since Kir Fanis tanks are pretty much regarded as great everywhere, but since I'm reviewing a newer one next, I figured I'd throw my 2 cents in the hat for this being awesome! I do wish it was a pyrex tube, but then it would probably cost 100+ bucks.... which would mean I wouldn't have it lol.

Next is the AGR: I saw PB review this with the UDCT, and I was instantly in love. One of the huge draws for me to any tank is the filler hole. I thought Kir Fanis was the only person making these, and I was bummed because I couldn't justify buying five 50+ dollar tanks. Seems like a plethora of "easy fill" tanks have popped up over the past month(or maybe I just wasn't digging hard enough). The AGR caught my eye because of the locking base with air ports AND a fill hole for a very reasonable price. I read a few people having issues with it leaking, but went ahead and took the dive!

Thus far, I've run a tank of GJ through it and haven't had a single leak anywhere. Granted, I haven't taken it outside to run errands or anything in this wonderful 100 degree heat, but getting a little dribble in that wouldn't hurt my feelings. It is by no means to the quality standard of Kir Fanis(stainless was a bit scratched when I got the AGR, and the threads aren't butter smooth), but for 1/5 of the price it is a gem! I'm always worried when looking at sub 20 dollar tanks that they will be slippy and have bad seals. This is not the case with the AGR! Of course, it can't slip with the carto lock, and, as I said, no leaks.

It is possible that the price point has made for inconsistent manufacturing, and GJ is pretty thick, so a PG based juice might be more prone to leaking, but I would totally recommend this to someone who can't make themselves have buy a handful of phiniacs or kir fanis tanks!

Prive Special: 9.5/10(glass tube would make it flawless, but also probably make it about as expensive as the provari it resides on :p)

AGR: 8.5/10(again, plastic tank knocks half a point off, and being a bit rough around the edges take the other point off)
