Hello Hello - thanks for any advice assistance etc you can provide.

I've been using a "wicked" Tornado-T for a while now - this one: Tornado Tank E-NIC Kit

I *think* this is a rebranded version of something else?

Anyway, works OK for a little while, good smoke etc, but I've going through atomizer pretty fast - they really degrade after a few days use and the cartridges leak a bit around where they fit into the atty or even worse sometimes they leak down into the mouthpiece area and you get e-juice in your mouth when you vape, which is super nasty and probably really unhealthy.

So, my understanding is there are replacement options. I *THINK* things like cartomizers that are a two in one instead of this two piece I have now?

Can anyone recommend a good replacement for the "stock" atomizer and tank that came with the set up above. I have 2 regular batteries and one of the larger ones, plus the charing equipment, so I'd like to avoid having to buy a whole new kit but I'm not super pleased with the short useful life of the tanks and the atomizers.

thanks!

Thanks Jixchel - I've read about cartomizers and clearomizers - and I'm down to try anything - question though if you or someone would oblige.
They say "REBUILDABLE" what exactly does that mean? The thing that I DO like about my current system is I fill it up and go - this feels like a lot of maintenance - but maybe it's drop dead simple, I just haven't been able to find an "explain it to me like I'm 5" explanation of what the process is. The sites all seem to think I already know and while I've done some searching here, I'm still a bit confused.
Thanks!

Welcome , but Jixchel pretty much covered it . Gotvapes also have the Phoenix tanks , and ego Visions . With that being said , I use Vivi-Novas myself , and they come with 3 different atty heads @different ohm ratings 1.8 , 2.4 and 2.8 the 1.8 works great on Ego type devices , as do the Phoenix devices . So , lots of options available . Good Luck

This is what detered me from them as well, I don't like stuff I have to fiddle with to get it to work properly, and if I have to rebuild it well it probably won't work once I'm done with it. Eventually I gave up on all the cartomizers (pollyfill tastes disgusting), clearomizers (far too fiddly), and tanks in general and stuck to my standard ego-c tank set up. Now I have gone to direct dripping right on an atty, amazing flavor by the way, and from there went to a bottom feeder mod to cut the hassle of direct dripping.
