My first IBTanked experience was a total Fail.
Ordered the 22mm Zen tube(19mm i.d.) to replace a failed 19mm i.d. Poly sleeve.
Arrived today.
Got out the old sleeve and caps. Washed the new tube, never left my hand.
Aligned and sighted Glass tube to poly tube. Glass tube showed very marginally larger in diameter.
Okay, this should be simple.
Wet the 0-ring very liberally with e-liquid.
Same result on three attempts. Started to slip onto base, then stopped on one side and started to .... sideways.
Rechecked size and confirmed larger than original in diameter.
4th attempt, started to lean, so I shifted straight and almost pushed as I noticed the tank had just split.
Not blaming IBTanked, or myself. The product looked excellent and I never forced anything.
Possibly a hard spot in the o-ring or an out of round Base cap. Something a poly tank would flex around.
Not significant to spot visually, but enough to stop a non stretchable material.
Anyway, that was my $11 3 minute Fail for the month.
Dropped the Killer 705 into a F-16 Carto tank for now.
