My Neon Nights tank is the same way. I even soaked it in dish soap for a week. I've had my Neon Nights for months now and it still smells strong. I tried putting mint juice in it and it made the juice taste that way. Now it just sits and looks good.

Well now I feel like I got ripped off. I'm not going to have a centerpiece from here on out :(. Whats making the smell? is it a finish on the tank? is the the frosted glass? is it the carto?

Good evening everyone, so I have a question. I recently acquired a Silver bullet from altsmoke. Prior to that I was using a kgo from Hoosier. And that little kgo rocks the flavor and vapor. This silver bullet, not so much. I mean it's good but not as good on the production as the kgo. Any suggestions? Im using dual coil carts at 1.5ohm in a jtank it sticks out but will suffice until the boge shipment gets here.

Mine does not have the frosted tube. It's the caps the smell is coming from with mine. What color is yours?

I would contact Jon and tell him what you're experiencing and see if he has a solution.

AW IMR batteries make the SB hit a lot better.

Just a couple of idea's that might help with this odor issue...tho I honestly don't know if they would work or not, but was just thinking....

Maybe try placing the caps in a baggie of baking soda for a day or two? Baking soda absorbs odors, so may help?

Or maybe use some of those denture cleaning tablets, fill a cup with water, drop the cleaning tablets in and then the caps?

Like I said, no idea if it would help, but may be worth trying....at least for Fran...and McVapor, I am sure if you contact Jon, he will work with you, as he is one person that would NEVER rip anyone off!!!!!!

Can you great peeps recommend where I should order some Boge cartos for my tank?

The carto that came with it burned out before I even used it (probably my fault, I must have not soaked the carto enough), and now my last Boge 3.0 just went out! Sadness....

I have ordered some from Mom and Pop Vape Shop, but wondering if anyone has a favorite vendor to get pre-punched cartos that work well with the tanks?

Thanks in advance!

Shel

I think most of us punch our own Shel, so not ignoring your question...just don't know the best place to buy them pre-punched. :)

Thanks big fran, so the aw's are gonna do better than these xsl's from "ultra-fire"?
Depends on what mAh you're using too, but the AW brand will give you better performance. I've got AW IC 2600mAh batteries in my Silver Bullets. My husband has Dark Pink (some call it Red) UtraFire 2600mAh protected batteries for his Silver Bullet. We get excellent results from both. The AW IMR (Red) batteries also work well but are shorter and may need spacers.
