Get one of these...IBTanked - Get Tanked With Us! Once they get a grip there is no way its coming loose. Very tough too.

I'll second IBTanked. I just got 3 of their tanks and I couldn't be happier. Was a little worried about spending so much without trying one first, but they were highly recommended here, so I pulled the trigger. Great taste. Better then anything else I have. I also have a pretty wild commute involving a train, a ferry, and what must be the busiest subway line in NYC. No leaks! I couldn't believe it. I've got some Smok 2.0 ohm prepunched cartos in them. Can't guarantee they won't pop off with high vibrations, but they've survived in my pockets while being sandwiched into a subway car between several people all jostling around. Takes a bit longer to prime the carto and fill the tank, but once you do they seem to be good for quite a while.

Definitely loose the iClear 16. I liked the flavor, but I'm no longer going to use them. I've lost too much liquid to leaks with them, and since they're dual coil they seem to go through more juice then the carto tanks. Even though the carto tanks don't eat through juice like they do, they give me better taste then any other clearo.

You may do better with any 510 connection then an ego connection with the vibration I think. You could try the iClear 30. It gives good taste (carto tank is still better), and it doesn't seem to leak, but that clearo is my ultimate juice guzzler. I may phase that one out too.

My husband only uses Mini Protanks for ease of maintenance, and no gurgling but I dislike the taste. After getting used to the taste of te 16, you may find that the Mini Protanks mute taste as well. Those are also ego connected, so the vibration issue may still exist.

Which iClear tanks do you have? Are they the iClear 16s that come with the MVP 2 kit? Those are cheap "starter" tanks. Try an iClear 30S. That tank rocks on top of an MVP 2.


All the iClear tanks produce lots of vapor. Lots of vapor production means lots of juice used. The fact that some of the juice is temporarily stuck in the wicks does not make it go away until you vape it.


I tried running a Protank II on top of my MVP. It was a very tight draw because it couldn't get enough air and the tank would start misbehaving (gurgling and eventually flooding) in a matter of an hour or two. My Protanks have been relegated to other devices, where they can get enough air.

Rossum, I am also running Pro-Tank II on top of my MVP. I know this sounds silly, but did you try taking the beauty ring off? I tried this, and it seems like my air flow has improved. It does look a bit clumsy, but it does seem to work. Not that a lot of accessories don't look strange on top of a big honking battery that's square shaped anyway.

Thanks for that Tinkie. I've been vaping about two months on a Pro-Tank II and have been thinking about switching over to the cartotank system. Also had the iClear 16 that came with my MVP II (could have been a 30, but definitely not the new i30s, which people are giving good reviews on)... that thing leaked like nobody's business. Almost ruined my MVP when it was new. I took it back to the store where I bought it and exchanged it, thinking it was a defective tank, but that one leaked too. Was highly disappointed because I did at least like the warmer vape, the taste seemed a bit more emphasized.

Sigh... I haven't been too happy with my Pro-Tank II. It gives decent vape and all that, but I just don't get the flavor. Plus, it likes to fry the juice sometimes. I'm hearing a lot of good things (mostly) about the cartotank set ups, and so I'm thinking of a 510 Pro DC10, just to start with till I can get comfortable with the notion of RBA's.

Thanks again Tinkie!!!

I drive comercially but I use a lanyard I made to hold mine round my neck took a few days to get used to but its handy as heck no leaking issues use paracord for the strap and use an adjuster (like you find on a jacket to tighten up drawstrings) so I can raise it up away from the steering wheel ( broke several of my favorite drip tips when I leaned forward to pick something off the floor when parked when I got back up thats when the drip tip bought it soi use the adjuster for that reason)
