Newbie tank user~ I have never used a tank before so my new hand blown tank from High Desert Ecigs was my first try on glass tanks and it is fabulous!!! I had no problems, no leaks, just a wonderful clean vape from it. I highly recommend these glass tanks, they are great. It came with two tank cartos, I am using it on a Provari mini. I just love it! I filled the carto with 25 drops Mojito ejuice, let it set awhile, then put it in the tank, filled the tank with a syringe. Gave a few dry puffs off the PV, then screwed it on the Provari mini and tastes great and great vaper. vaping it at 3.1. bnrk

High Desert Ecigs There are quite a few nice tanks available, no two are a like. I highly recommend them.

I ordered my custom tank a couple of weeks ago and it arrived!!! It is SO nice.....I ordered a UFO shaped tank pink and was asking for a alien in the window. I got better than I ever could have wanted! It's clear on top, pink on the bottom. It has a cute little alien in the window, and beautiful dots (lights) around the edges of the bottom. It makes my proveri take off LOL. The customer service was great and it was done within 2 weeks. I have had more complements on my tank. People keep stopping me and want to know where they can get one :) I like mine so much I ordered another one. It's already finished and have another one in mind.

I've never had a glass tank but have heard people talk about flavor leaching with plastic tanks. Does glass really improve the flavor?
If the plastic tube in carto tanks or clearo tanks is clear, it is almost certainly made of polycarbonate. Some e-liquids, in particular the cinnamon and citris flavors, have been known to crack or melt the material. The interaction between these two can also cause the juice to become cloudy -- don't vape this if you see this!

Polypropylene is another plastic we are beginning to see more of as a replacement for polycarbonate. It is frosted in appearance, and is identical to the material used in medical syringes. This material is totally immune to the issues that polycarbonate has with some juice flavors.

Smoktech Titan, or Screwtank (clearo) is a Vivi Nova clone that uses a polypropylene tube (note the frosted tube).

Pyrex is the best material that could be used in these juice carrier devices, but it is more expensive, and replacement sizes for existing tanks is quite limited.

I got a couple of tanks from High Desert Ecigs. Below is a custom tank the creator made from my description of a red-eyed green tree frog. The black and white dotted tank also came from High Desert, and was picked as an already made tank.
