Hmmmm
I wonder what the Nicoticket PBC (peanut butter cookie) and BP (banana pudding) would be like mixed.
Hmmmm
Might have to try it as I have a bottle of both. :D
Hey, you got your peanut butter in my chocolate!
No, you got your chocolate in my peanut butter!

List of e-juices known to crack polycarbonate tanks (originally compiled by ECF's My4Jewels and added to by UKV's members):

Any sour flavours
Any flavours that contain malic acid.
Any e-liquids that contain essential oils
E-liquids that contain triacetin, used in vg liquids to carry flavour more effectively
Cinnamon like "atomic cinnamon" types, not warm cinnamon like cinnamon coffee cake, this is OK
Wintergreen juice or flavouring
Mimosa
Cola
Nutmeg
Clove oil
Sassafras

TPA Ripe Banana flavouring
...and the list goes on. See? It was at the top of the list! :laugh:

This one particular one was the only banana I've seen listed on several lists as a tank cracker, and I think only if you go high percentage, like if it's the main or only flavor. As a mixer with other flavors, it's probably OK. No problems reported with other bananas. Just FYI...

haha and I think PMMA is even a slightly lower grade than polycarbonate.

FWIW Killer Juice premium banana cream pie split my m tank and top cap I was using on an Orchid v4 in about 30-40 minutes.

I just did a search and they have one with 1.5mm, 2mm, 2.5mm, 3mm and 3.5mm for $4.66. Both AMOD and the dollar cheaper one has 1mm, 1.6mm, 2.4mm, 3.0mm, 3.2mm and 3.5mm.

I think the $4.66 one would be more useful.

*edit*
Sorry Roxy, just black and purple available.

Red, black and purple are my 3 fav colors.

This is the first time I've ever seen an actual juice-cracked tank. Thanks Kaiser Bob.
That's creepy that is.

The top cap is what shocked me. At first I wasn't bothered about the tank because I had a spare. The way the juice split the top cap is impressive, that's a few mm of plastic. Just think of the physical force required to shatter it like that.

Then it has to be a typo or the person who got it had a tainted batch. I am OG with Ripe Banana, it never cracked a dern thing. In fact I had the Banana in my Tobeco Aqua PMMA tank for at least 4 days, no cracking.

I think that was just bad Karma Kaiser Bob :laugh: ... just kidding :p And what do you expect from a brand named Killer juice anyway? :laugh:

Well listen, I have used Ripe Banana since I started vaping in 2011, never had it or any other Banana juice flavoring crack a PMMA tank on me. I also use Banana Nut, and I make my own Banana nut bread recipe (which I prefer) Vendor juice? Who knows whats in it, I DIY primarily so .. that is my story and I am sticking to it :glare:

:laugh:

Ouch! That's a nasty, messy crack! :ohmy:

Aww .. thats so cute :laugh: Your girl Jieyan is gonna look like that Power puff girl once she logs in and reads the wrath I left on skype :glare:

FYI, no one should buy that Kayfun V4 for $22 or that cheap looking LPG in the US warehouse until FC corrects their photos to properly represent what the product is :glare:

That kayfun 4 from the other place is driving me nuts this week.

On the bright side, the SX Zero is a very nice mod, and I like the black Stingray X as well. So yay to FC for those two and boo hiss to FT on the K4. The K4 was a gift though so I will get it worked out. I was avoiding them until the verdicts were in and which were solid and which were Chuckys :laugh: But, this little K4 just happened to find its way to my mailbox.

NOOOO .. don't try it, it dangerous. :glare:

Send it to me quickly for testing, then I will tell you if its ok. :blush: :laugh:

If you want them sweetheart, I'll send them to you. Both are 30ml bottles, the Banana Pudding is 18mg/ml and the Peanut Butter Cookie is NZmg/ml. PM me your address and they will go out Monday (have to mail some other stuff anyway). I don't really care for them, and if my sweetheart likes them, I'm good. :wub:

These were both limited releases at Nicoticket and not on their website at the moment. Both have a born on date of 11/20/2014.

Very nice of you! I'm sure you're aware those may just need more steeping, right?

Any clever ideas on how to fix this? Is it even possible to fix this? So, annoyed, only one build on this N22. It was a good atty if it had not fallen apart. :cry:

Fatdaddy vape has some replacement positive center post parts for RDAs, though I've never used them so not sure if it will work for you. By the way, what SKU number is your N22? I have one from FC too but haven't built it yet, just wondering if it's the same as yours.
