Does anyone still use carto tanks?

Those have never bothered my airflow at all. The only problem with airflow I've ever had with a cartotank was putting it on a Vamo V2 -- totally flat top, restricts airflow a lot. If I put my cartotank on a vv3 with a flared cone, lots of air!

Yep there is antifreeze in your food and cough syrup too and in your beer. Alcohol was used as an antifreeze in vehicles before the glycol stuff came out.
I get so much air from a new carto, I basically have to sip on it till it tightens up. Or, stop using big hole drip tips. 
Drilling out a carto is nigh-on impossible. They're just too complicated and fragile. One day i will master it though!
Back to the subject of airflow, now i've thought about it it's not so much the restricted flow, it's the fact that i now take 2-3 second inhales whereas with a cartotank it was upwards of 6-7 second draws. I guess i'm just too busy now to spend that sort of time getting my nicotine fix. Life's too short

When I use carto tanks I usually use boge 2 hole carto's, I drill 1 or 2 smaller holes between & slightly below the stock juice flow holes and enlarge one air hole. Most times I use a tiny tool with a slight hook on the end to remove a tiny bit of wicking material to improve juice flow.
Ive experimented with enlarging both air holes & drilling 1 - 2 additional air holes.
Just like most other delivery devices, modifications that suite your individual wants/needs can make a huge difference.

What *might* be possible is getting one of those carto-punch tools, and punching additional holes in the carto itself -- I dunno if that would work, it might flood the carto, but just a thought. Might be a good thing to do with thick high-VG juices.

I tried drilling out the air holes in a couple atty's once, didn't make any difference for some reason.
One step ahead of me, have you tried different drip tips also? I've only recently noticed that mine differ greatly. Chuff??
I still use some cartos/tanks, or just a carto, along with clearos, RTA's, and bottom feeders on my Reo's.
Punching additional or larger holes in the cartomizer will increase the juice flow, not the airflow.
Yeah, I thought that might be the case; I think I've seen that technique advised for really thick juices that don't flow well with just 2 small holes in the carto.

Proper Terminology: Juice Delivery Devices
It's a juice delivery device which I would describe as an intermediate step up from single cartomizers or clearomizers before getting into rebuildables. I give a relatively thorough description of them in the above link.

As with many things in the vaping world you just have to try it and see how it works out. worst case you blew a carto.
Cartos, great prices here and Surevapes ( wider selection)
Boge F series tanks need their own F cartos.
