Looks like a vaptio P-1 TF tank, but burnt up / used for something it shouldn't have been / caught in a kitchen sink garbage disposal.

It certainly isn't worth trying to resurrect, they're about $10 new.
thanks i just want to try to throw away the coil and get a new one and wash the tank ok idea ?

I wouldn't use it, but if you must... be sure to thoroughly clean all parts of it.
The 510 threading is going to need some special attention, every thread needs to be clean & shiny.
The tank looks hazed / etched, if it the original plastic I'd change that too.


I don't know if the replaceable heads and or glass tanks are still available, if they are I imagine the cost of a 5 pack & glass will be more than a new tank / not worth the hassle of cleaning & fiddling with that tank.

If you must, I'd remove tank & throw away, disassemble all parts scrub in dishwashing liquid, rinse well, rubbing alcohol can damage some seals & o rings, no way to tell until too late.
PGA is the only alcohol I would use, then a good rinse.
The 510 is really grungy, it will have to be thoroughly cleaned & de funked, bright & shiny, threads may be compromised making the whole mess unusable.

It isn't about being cocky, if you believe attempting to resurrect a not very good to begin with, old crusty delivery device is worth your time, energy & money go for it.

^ This. :thumb:

That tank looks seriously sick, and I don't mean that in a hip way.
I concur. That thing looks diseased. Or perhaps the victim of a witch burning. Seriously, you’re going to spend more in materials cleaning it than it would cost to get a new one.

Wow, just wow. Lol

Seriously my friend, please be careful if you proceed with this. Remember that you are vaporizing liquid that comes in contact with that and inhaling it. Not sure I would risk that myself, even with a thorough cleaning.

No telling what you could be inhaling. I would trust a dozen direct from China unwashed tanks in a row before I would trust something like that. Really???

I won't even use a 'new' drip tip these days unless it's been cleaned very well. I used to not be such as germaphobe, but anything I buy new gets a good scrubbing and cleaning before it gets used. That looks like it's been rolled in dog poop and allowed to ferment a while. :D

Be careful.

Marcel I do not want to sound rude but are you of legal smoking age? Just seems your questions are not just from an inexperience prospective. Seems as though you are trying to be on the " down low". Sorry just an honest question and I do not see your age listed on your profile page. I am sure one could misrepresent themselves if they had the desire to do so to obtain access to this forum. I truly hope I am incorrect and if I am please accept my apologies in advance.
