I admit it, I'm a spoiled rotten Princess; however, I am also aware of how blessed I am and truly grateful

I need to stock up on more halfling cartos. I'm surprised how much I'm enjoying the halfling IBT. Can't wait for the blacked out one to ship.

I'm curious how a 19mm halfling would look. Never considered it til just now, but a 19mm halfling filled with some 48mg juice, would make a great little, "in case of emegency, vape glass" kit, in a life or death nico fit.

I really like the 22mm black swirl standard size I got for the Black Knight, so I got a 22mm black swirl halfling and another black Loki ring for the Stealth mini. They are going to match!!! (I wasn't allowed to play with Barbies as a kid, so I'm finally getting it out of my system.)

Sir Galahad is gorgeous. :hubba: I'm still pining away for one of his little brothers. But I know some day my shiny little prince will come.

And I love that black swirl tank with the black beauty ring on the stealth! That setup looks great! Can't wait to see what the half-ling looks like on the mini.

Congratulations! You are curating a most impressive court.

I think you are on to something there......

Thank you. I have a standard size/stainless caps with a royal blue swirl coming for Sir Galahad. The Hypertank just isn't doing it for me. The vape is fine, but the size and weight are unwieldy - and that's before juice. I'm going to have to weigh it. I have a tumbler tank coming, but that's just because I thought it would look cool on Bobo, I'm not really into trying the new clearos coming out. I'm a dripping, bottom-feeding, carto tank grrrl.

Have you tried the Loki Labs tank? I am loving mine (with the Loki beauty ring, natch).

IBTs are quickly becoming my main population of carto tanks. So simple, but many choices for creativity, and sizes. And the quality is great.

My high end faves are still Kirf, particularly the Prive Special. Although I would KILL for a brass veradero, but it doesn't look like he'll be making any more. If anyone comes across one in the classies and doesn't want it themselves, PLEASE ALERT ME!

Also coming soon is my first Phiniac with a Diver recessed bottom cap. I'm still working out the custom details with Jennifer, but I digress.

If you are unsure of which carto tank is a slam dunk winner..... I highly recommend IBTanked.

Sweet collection!! I'm liking the sleeves on the minis too.

I love the sleeves. I stopped wrapping the minis, since the sleeves are too tight for a wrapped mod to go in. I keep them in the sleeve all the time, which is why the full size seemed small to me. The sleeve adds about .75" to the height and they are pretty thick too. I have an extra brown one I got when I thought Tim was only putting blems up and wouldn't be making anymore. I have sleeves coming for the 3 new guys. I like how the leather gets warm when I hold it and it feels weird now holding something metal.

+1

I have 6 I can think of, there might be another one, I'm not sure, plus 2 on the way. I believe Bad has 12. I'm jealous he likes enough juice flavors to fill 12.

If been reading/watching vids all morning on carto tanks. If I'm wrapping my brain around all this correctly, it is not as complicated as I thought. Plus, I just want to try it so I can get a "slap ur momma" tool cuz that cracks my ... up

If you order a complete set from IBT, you can add on a tank tool (brilliant), plus the tank itself comes in a small plastic container, in a size similar to a film canister (I'm dating myself, I know). Anyhoo, the canister the IBT tank comes in is called a "thingy" - and it can be used in a very simple way to prime a new carto.

Grab your new carto, stick the tank tool in the top and pull the tool+carto through the tank until the elongated top of the tank tool is sticking up through the top of the tank, and the top of carto itself is about half-way through the tank.

Fill your tank, pull the carto all the way through the top opening so it is sitting in place.

Pull the tank tool out of the carto and put the entire tank (now with carto in place and filled with juice) back into its thingy, with the open end of the carto facing up.

Then take the cap to the thingy, and screw it down to close the tank inside the thingy. Keep an eye on the holes on the side of your carto - when you seal the thingy, you will see bubbles coming out of the holes.

Unscrew cap, screw back down. (I call this "burping" my carto. Don't ask.)

Unscrew / screw down cap until you can no longer see any bubbles coming out of the side holes of the carto and you and your nicely-primed carto are good to vape!

(Insert puzzled look) Carto tank:

Hard part (not really hard) - learn to prime a carto: The Ocelot Method of Carto Filling (aka The Upside-Down Condom)

When primed, put carto in tank.

You are done. Vape.


This is actually a "Hot Swap," but will show you how to put a carto in a tank with a SYM. It's very short.
