I just started using a tank a few days ago that I think would be great for people who like the engines. It has all the pros. Leak proof, easy to wick etc but much better flavor. It's internal side airflow. The top airflow tanks to me just don't handle big builds and mute flavors. The engine is like my least favorite rta I own so I never got a nano. The tank I'm using is the blitz warcraft.

What makes this tank leak proof compared to the Nano?

The last two Blitz Enterprises tanks I had were the Hannya RTA. One came with the glass too short to make a good seal, I had to find thicker o-rings for it. Also both decks stripped out in a very short time with normal use.

Personally, anything by Blitz is the not even on my radar and I doubt they have improved their manufacturing quality. But I will be looking forward to your review. :thumb:

Never had the hannya rta. The other atty I have from them is the hatty rda. The hannya could have been dud. The warcraft is a good quality. And I'm not an easy sell. I crapped on the troll rta for it's quality

I haven't used this RTA in a couple weeks so I decided to revisit it. When I tried to unscrew the cap, it ended up stuck to the chimney and the glass unscrewed with the inner chimney stuck to the base. Curses!

After prying everything apart and putting in a fresh wick (hosed everything down before)...it's been vaping very nicely all day even with a refill. No leaks or flooding with Rayon. No seeping between the tank and base.

Inspired by TrollDragon's advice about closing off the JFC, vaping for a bit then re-filling, I thought maybe a variation of this would work for me on initial wicking and filling. So I saturated the Rayon a little...much less than I'd normally do. Filled with JFC closed and vaped for a bit. Opened up JFC and no flooding.

Really glad to hear it's finally working good for you. :thumbs:

The EXO is still a daily driver for me living on my HT Slice, with a single fused clapton and my favorite Golden Tobacco juice.

The vape this tank provides was too good for me to give up on it. I still don't consider it fully working for me though. I think I just got lucky with it. We'll see what happens when I rewick it.

If all goes well, this will be my first long time wick with Rayon. I'm using a 30PG 70VG liquid that's kinda thick but not crazy. How long do you think the wick will be good for?

Edit: Which Golden Tobacco do you use?

I was having some leaking after filling until I started doing like you said and closing it off before and after filling and vaping it closed.

It's weird. Someone in this thread said they can fill the tank with the JFC open and it doesn't leak. I don't know.

Another weird thing: I didn't saturate the rayon too much and vaped it with the JFC closed. Break in was very minimal. Maybe the JFC on our tanks aren't that great at keeping e-liquid from the coils? Every time I've followed TrollDragon's advice has resulted in no flooding.

Another observation: I get very good vapor with the airflow barely open. I like that. I'm using a simple coil too. I'm not a cloud chaser by any means but I do like all this vapor with the air flow barely opened.

I am not one to shoot for distance with Rayon like some do in the Rayonati thread. I prefer the pure flavor Rayon provides over cotton.

Depend on your juice and vape style, many have gone over 300ml's on a single wick. I don't track the juice consumption on my tanks and rewick when the coils start to get a little char on them, or just out of boredom. ;)

My Golden Tobacco is a cheap commercial juice made by Liquid eJuice.

I did! & I repeat again I fill with both JFC & airflow wide open
OK. Lets get a little scientific here. I see that you live in edmonton canada and according to Google the elevation of that city is 2116'. Could that be a factor as well?

    If we getting a little scientific elevation would not be a factor compared to our extreme cold winter (-40C)
