Since lots of folks have gotten their new tanks lately, just wanted to put it out there that I would love to trade my Magenta Bliss Pawn tank for a Ming style tank. I have it listed over in the trade thread on IVC, but thought I'd put it here too. Prefer not to list it on the classifieds, but may later. It looks like this....

PM me if you are interested please...thanks!! :)

Ty....if you decide to sell it just let me know...

I definetly would Iowa Gal, but I honestly could never sell one of my tanks! I love these tanks so much and actually love the Magenta Bliss color, but have fallen even more in love with the Ming style.

Lots of "love" mentioned, huh?:laugh:

I don't know if someone said this already but.
IF you did not get the carto soaked with liquid on the first fill, then you probably burnt it.
I punch two holes in every carto I have ever used. I even take the one Jon sends and re-punch it before I use it.
Nothing you can do if you have burnt the filler. It will always be bad.
Get a new carto and fill/soak it good with liquid.
I use a syringe with a needle.
I put about a 2mills in the syringe and insert the needle in the side(not into the filler) of the carto to the point the tip is about half way into the filler of the carto.
I push about a fourth of the liquid out. I the go about 90 degrees and do this again. Go 90 again then 90 again.
Then put it in the tank, fill tank and enjoy.
Never had any trouble after I have done it this way.
It's hard for me to explain things. I'm more a hands on kinda guy.
If you have any questions just P.M. me and I will give you my phone number.

If I were lucky enough to get a tank the next sale, would I receive an email with the Paypal address of jonboy to allow me to use a credit card or would I be required to have my own Paypal account to transfer funds to his account? I do NOT have a Paypal account (don't really want one) and would like to use a credit card. Thanks in advance for helping an old fart out....

PS. I really did read the noob info and have been following this forum for a little while. I also watched SD's videos which I must say were very informative.

As far as I know there is no way of using PayPal without an account and as far as I know Jon doesn't take credit cards. It's really easy to open an account and link your card to it. Not really a big deal.

That is exactly what I did - were you watching me? lol.. I've been lurking a long time and have read all the useful info that has gone on about the tanks. I used my thingy I bought at Lowes to punch another hole plus went over the one already there. Actually when I put more juice in the carto, it weeps out those holes. It doesn't seem to draw in. If I vape with just the carto alone there is some flavor but not alot. I use an ego so maybe the 2.0 boge is too strong for my battery and juice?

I will try again tonight with a different juice.

Thank you all for supporting me :)

I believe the Boss said he was using the shorty dual coils from Madvapes in the tanks and they were rocking!!!

I should have mine tomorrow, Boss says they are good, they are good!

Same here. Was struggling for a long time. I tell ya! You finally found it! The lava tank is the easiest, most hassle free, consistent vape there is! I'm sure it will work tonight. And yes, a different juice may help. Start with your thinner juices at first.

No!! You didn't sound angry at all. No offense taken. Just frustrated. We've all been there and are here to help!

Everyone goes through a time like that, just frustrating the heck out of you, but persistence works! Just like trying to snag a tank during a sale, persistence pays off!

That's what we're all here for. Someone helped us along the way so it is a must to return that kindness!

Like others have said. We all hit snags.
Believe me once you find that right way, for you, you will love these tanks.

Very true! I might add, don't count the Boge cartos out just yet, give them a chance! A while back there were some bad Boge cartos but I think that has been addressed and fixed.
