Hi was wondering if anyone knows of any glass tanks that are either still being made or are available for sale found a few but they all seem to be out of stock would like the benefit of glass as it won't react with any eliquid flavour won't cling easier to clean ect and just really appeals to me aesthetically thanks for any help anyone can give me

OCD tanks from IBTanked sells probably the cheapest I've found. $5 for a clear pyrex tube and $19 for ss endcaps. For $10 more he has artsy painted designs for the tubes. Some are pretty nice looking. These are a little narrower than most glass tanks. Not sure if he ships overseas.

There's also the Zenesis Pro atty made of crushed quartz at about $150 and a 6 month wait.
Also it should be mentioned that the Vivi Nova (original full size version) has a metal tank replacement for a few bucks you can buy if you want a mini-mace standoff weapon as a PV. Hobos are everywhere but you can walk with confidence knowing that, in a pinch, you can hold them off by truncheoning them within an inch of their lives with your Vivi Nova Mace. Not anywhere near as aesthetic as pyrex, but much more durable.

As for glass clearomizers I can't think of any that exist. They seem to be a punched carto tank only phenomenon which, to me, is a bit shortsighted. They need glass clearos, like yesterday.

With rebuildable clearomizers recently available, hopefully a pyrex tube model will be next in the works. I know I'd pay more for one.

Build it, and we will buy it.

Holy cats! That little thing is adorable.I'm an idiot about these things, though - what kind of carto does it need?

The 4ml takes a standard size carto (boge), while the taller 7ml takes an XL (smoktek dct). The tanks in those pics on the vendors's website are the basic tank which comes with a soft silicone rubber grommet for an endcap. To fill with juice you have to insert a blunt needle between the grommet and carto, or between the tube and grommet.

You can buy black delrin end caps for less than $20 from the website, which I highly recommend. Then you can fill your tank the regular way.

Well that much is true for most of us. I don't know about me though. Pyrex is strong but it's not strong enough for me. I drop my ecig every time I get drunk.

By the way, greetings fellow Ohioan. There are so few of us on ECF.

any idea's on where to get a lava tank?

The classifieds? If I'm not mistaken, there's a subforum here for lava tanks, and the tanks are anounced for sale periodically in large batches. They sell out pretty quickly from what I understand.

Hoosier Vapes sells a very similar tank, called the Bella Tank. I bought one from their first batch of Elegance Tanks, a second generation of the Bella that are a bit taller and hold a small bit more in juice capacity. I've never been able to link them here, but just google the name.

This is my Bella Elegance tank. I replaced the original clear acrylic tube with a clear XL Phiniac pyrex tank tube, which was color-sandblasted with the design. Green e-juice is Ecto Plasma from Juicy Vapor.

If you go to the Modders sub-forum, Bedazzle is now selling ss caps to go with her glass tubes.

The Bedazzle tubes are really amazing works of art & her new caps are available in several different colors. I'm on my phone, or else I'd post a link for ya...but still not sure how to do that yet. :facepalm:
