So all I've had is the basic smoketech tank that sells for around 10.00 to 12.00$. Nothing fancy
but it gets the job done. My question to some of you tank guru/hoarders does
the actually tank used make the juice taste better or worse? I understand some look better than oothers but
but I'd hate to drop 50.00 on a cool looking tank just to have my juice taste the same. I would be using it on a
ego twist. I really like the look of the Bella tanks but if I'm not gonna
notice a big diff in taste I'll prob hold off for a bit.

In my opinion i don't think it makes a difference in taste but what you do get when you start paying for the more expensive ones like the ACTv4 or the Odysseus or phiniac is the peace of mind that you have pyrex or food grade metals that will not degrade or crack from certain juices that tend to be acidic. also alot of the higher ups tend to leak less or have features built in that tend to make them more easy to use I.E port hole on the side of tank to fill it up with liquid, screw on top and bottom lids so you wont have to worry about them popping off and juice getting every where etc. those extra features may or may not seem worth it but trust me they are, they make a world of difference and will probably make you fall in love with tanks 100x over

I started off with polycarb tanks and am in the process of making the change to glass or stainless steel tanks. Why? Because the juices are etching the polycarb. If they are etching it, that means you have the polycarb in your juice, which means you are vaping it. Does this change the flavor of your juice? Yes! As one who started off with polycarb tanks, I can honestly say that my juice tastes ALOT better in glass or SS. I have two Phiniac glass tanks and I LOVE them! I'm not sure whether it's the tanks or not, but I don't get near the gurgling noise out of them that I do in a plastic tank. I also am going to be ordering some stormyvapor ACTv4 tanks. I think these particular tanks would be rather top heavy on your eGo, but they will work well with my Provari. If you can get a Bella tank (I think I heard where she has stopped making those?) that would be great. If not, I'd suggest either a Phiniac tank or a clean tank from Avidvaper. The Phiniac tank is cheaper than the clean tank, but you have the twist off top if that's what you are looking for.

Hmm you're experience has been vastly different than mine..i guess in this case then the taste is subjective saying comes into play?? i honestly haven't noticed a difference but if you have than maybe he will too and i stand corrected :D..i suppose its kinda like having a beer from a can vs a bottle..bottled beer just tastes so much better

I LOVE my 5 sandblasted Phiniac tanks! I have 2 polycarbs flying around somewhere here that I don't even use anymore. One polycarb is totally cloudy from the liquid, I need to pitch it but I'm still holding on to it just in case......... I have separation anxiety from my stuff and am hording it. LOL!
