IBtanked questions

[Commie]

I'm sure this has been covered already, but my search-fu isn't good enough to find it.

So two quick quick questions
1. In the 19mm configuration for regular cartos, how much does it hold? I assume 3 ml?
2. How slidey are they? Should I be concerned about it falling off like most smok DCTs do?

Thank you!
Commie

They hold around 3ml's give or take just a little (including the juice in the carto). I have 2 19mm's and 1 larger one. None of them slide up and down without trying to make them. They do spin a bit, but not much after they have been filled and allowed to dry. I feel 100% secure carrying mine with me everywhere fully loaded!

From the IBTanked F.A.Q.s: http://www.ibtanked.com/faq

19mm Standard= 1.5ml

19mm XL = 2ml

25mm Standard = 5ml

25mm XL = 8ml


The tanks fit the carto very snuggly, no slippy-slidey.

I've got 5 19mm and 1 25mm and like was already said, once they get dry and set I've never had a problem with em being slippy. I carry mine everyday.

I wanted to get one of their tanks but I use the kanger Horizontal/bottom coil cartos.
I have never used a carto tank before. The diameter/circumference of the kanger should be the same as a boge (don't have a boge to compare for any discernable differences)?
I know it is a totally noob query but I want to make sure that I get the right carto for the tank. I was thinking of getting the 19mm XL tank.

I wouldn't be concerned about cartomizer diameters, as they are all the same. The differences in cartomizer dimensions are with their length.

Cartomizer lengths will be either of 35mm length (standard size) or 45mm length (XL or DCT size).

What ever length those Kanger cartos are, order the same length of tube for the tank.

Thanks, Baditude

I know which ones to order now

my tanks from IB tanked are very snug. i punch my own cartos, so they dont have the flange at the bottom. yet i am 100% confident that they wont slide off. very snug fit. the first few times getting the carto in there is tough work, you gotta grease the o-rings with a few drops of eliquid. a tank filler tip is very beneficial for this process.

I'm surprised Baditude didn't mention the "Slap Yo Mama." He suggested one to me and it's brilliant for changing cartos! Slap yo Momma Multi-Purpose Adapter - YouTube

Sorry but I had to laugh when I read this again. I was filling one of my tanks the other day, and the inner "O" ring was so tight it got taken out of the cap. Juice all over the place. Yea the good tanks really know how to hang on for dear life. Just go slow when you fill and don't get in a hurry like I always do.

I haven't had a problem with IBtanked, but I have another tank that the caps are too tight around the middle opening for Yo Mama to slap. It's a great little tank when it gets going, but changing the cartos is a nightmare - first the bottom slides up, then the top slides down inside, back and forth, back and forth...there's no way I could hurry.
