How can I get my hands on a new tube for my tank. My tube is all cracked now ;-( If anyone has a spare I would love to buy it.
Are you looking for Poly or Glass? I believe Jon will sell you a Poly. Not sure if you have to wait for a sale or not. If you want Glass, you might want to check out the Bedazzle thread.

Wow that does look really nice wokkerk. Pretty sure E-8 was my second choice!


Thank you! It was my second choice too but seeing it in person Im really happy with it. I just find it hilarious that I have different setups now including the LT that are all more expensive than the mod that I use them on.

I'm not sure that's all that rare. The PVs really are just batteries. Some do some cool things with variable voltage/power……some have some other little neat features……some are more reliable and better built than others………but if the PV can drive what's on it the way you want it to………it kind of becomes irrelevant……what goes on top of it seems to make a much bigger difference.

B5 landed in Spain today looks great on my Shiny New Brass Caravela will post a pic tomorrow :p
I can't wait to see pics! I'm curious about how that color compares to the one I got since they have similar characteristics.

I have to say though, I am thoroughly impressed with my B2 that arrived today. As much as I love all the lava tanks, this has to be the most beautiful ever made, imo, lol. It is NOT the color of my car, btw. I thought it might be based on the picture posted of it during the sale. Instead it is a much richer color. It has a metallic sheen to it. When I first saw it, I thought antique brass. When I took it outside it appeared to be more of a copper color. In bright light it appears to be more golden. I'll let you decide what color you think it is.

Alright I need some help. Ive read through a lot of different tank and lava threads and I really can't seem to figure this out. I filled up my carto, made sure it was good and saturated, then I filled up my tank. It hit really well at first but then the more I vaped it, it got dry. It seems to be that its not pulling through the little hole in the carto. I took some good hard draws on it to try and wick it up through the hole but it doesnt seem to be doing any good. the only way to get it to wick it seems is to pull the cap off and put it back on while the hole is submerged in juice to get it to create a vaccum but this is getting irritating. what am I doing wrong? please tell me because Im feeling fairly stupid at this point.

Personally, I prefer two holes in my cartos. I'm sure if you have really thin juice the one hole that the carto in the tank comes with is fine, but if you use a thicker juice then the carto won't absorb as quickly. Most of my liquids are about 30% vg so they aren't too thick, but they are thicker than pure pg would be. If you are using something with more vg in it, then you most likely will need to punch at least one more hole in your carto.
