Any recommendations on where i can buy cheap tanks? What kind of tanks to use? I have a lavatube 2.5 and an eGo twist! Thinking about buying a cheap vamo v5! Also, suggestions on e-Juice! I've tried a few flavors of moon mountain vapor! (Really good):vapor:

1: Glass/pyrex tanks.
2: eGo threaded base

miniprotank2 v2.

Well I'd spend like $5-25 for now on a tank, but I want one that'll last & that's easy to maintain! My tube tank that came with my lavatube, I tried this Allen wrightbeard flavor from slims e juice in it, and no matter what even if I change the carto, the taste is STILL there, I even tried boiling the tank(cause someone told me you should to clean it). & if I buy a carto tank or bcc like an kanger tank I was wondering where a good place is to buy cheap cartos or coil heads! I'll check those Pyrex carto tanks out too! My mini protank 2 just came in the mail earlier, still gotta test it out! I have 0 knowledge on the AFC thing thought! I am open to learning though!

try Cyclops vapor or suicide bunny for e-juice they have some of my favorite flavors. if you like alot of choices at very good prices try Mt baker vapor or lucky 7 vapes some good flavors and the prices are LOW!!

how cheap are you looking to spend on tanks?

I also REALLY want to try suicide bunny actually! But, I'm more right now looking for cheaper, but good ejuice!

Can't recommend any eliquids to you because I DIY but for tanks...any of the following...nautilus, aspire, evod, or the new X.1. AFC (air flow control) adjust the draw/flavor/vapor. The better tanks, like the nautilus, have them. Gives you more control of your vape.

You can use dual coil on a lavatube, however at least with cartomizers you may find that you prefer single coils. Many do. Often one may find issues with a dual coil carto keeping BOTH coils wicked enough so that it doesnt burn the filler.

As far as the smoktech carto tank - A cheap or poor quality cartotank means one big hot leaky mess. Get an IBTanked if at all possible and if you absolutely MUST save money at least go to vapor-mania for the hand blown borosilicate glass tanks.

I have several mods and tanks. I have a Kayfun lite +, a Vivi Nova, and I have a Trident V12 Dripper. The Vivi Nova is a great tank as you can replace the coils really easy. The Kayfun Lite + is also nice as you can build two coils in it and the airflow is adjustable. I like my Trident V12 so I can vape several flavors all day without having to worry about cleaning a tank and replacing the juice. There are thousands of different variations and every person is different. I started out with an EGO-T and then moved up to the Sentinel MK16 Mechanical Mod. Then I got a Provari Mini with a Vivi Nova V2 tank and I like it the best. Good luck.

Well if you thoroughly cleaned the tank and you still taste the juice, that must be a plastic tank.
Get glass.

The experience should have demonstrated something to you about plastic tanks.
