Just bought one. Loving it.
Mine came in the same box, same set of spares, same screwdriver, but did not include the extra glass tank.
Not a deal killer, but worth knowing.
It is a little noisy, but quieter than the T3S clearos I use.
Forgot to close the air holes on the first fill, so I got a handful of juice.
On my wick, I cut it down to the deck, but did not poke a tail into the channels. I should have and will try it after this tank.

Welp, I broke it.
My first RBA, and first glass tank. I tightened it down too much and cracked the glass. Ruined my night, and I'm still a little sad about it.
I found a replacement on a UK site, but it was sold out.
Getting it cut at ibtanked would cost as much as just buying a new one, but would yield 3 tanks. If I decide to buy another, I'll go ahead and order some tanks from them.
So anyway, I improvised. Fasttech sent me a T3S with a detached chimney. So I ripped it apart and trimmed it to length. The top just snaps off, but had to get aggressive with the bottom.
I cut it to length with a pocket knife, following a groove that was already there. Sanded the cut edge by pressing it into the corner of a sanding sponge and twisting.
The bottom fits better as the T3S has a slight taper (now I know). I put the wide part near the bottom. It has to be twisted down tight to keep the pressure, but it's holding well and allows juice down the side of the chamber nicely.
For anyone interested, or with advice on where to source a proper replacement, it's dimensions are:
Length: 32 mm
Outer Diameter: 15 mm
Inner Diameter: 12 mm

In other news, I solved my wicking issue. A 2 mm coil allows for a little thicker wick. Trimmed and fanned it onto the deck, Kayfun style, with no tails in the juice channel. 2 tanks in and it's staying wet for full open lung hits. I'll know in a month if I want another one.

Got the tanks from IBT.
Pictured is the Yi Loong Fogger Mini with a prism tank from IBTanked.com.
The unused tank in the back is the cracked original.
The Outer Diameter fits perfect. No slack, no rattle, and no scraping edges.
The Inner Diameter is ever so slightly larger than the original. I would be afraid to go from the 1.2mm wall to the 1.5mm wall as it might be enough to block the juice channels. It was already a super close fit to begin with. It sits on the o-rings perfectly on both ends.
The IBT length is less than a mm longer. By eye, it is about the depth of the small bevel on one ground edge longer. This is not enough to interfere with the seal when tightening. The logos match up the same way as the original when assembled.
Basically, a perfect fit. Got it set up now and there is no seepage or leaks.
I had more pics, but the focus was terrible on them. I sent them fit info and they say they will be adding it to the "Other Tank Tubes" section of their site.
Here is the size I ordered.
15.0mm x 1.2mm Tube, no bevel, length 33.0mm
