Keep looking! It's inside the center tube... LOL! JK!!
It was a drip tip that came with aaah... found it!
Clarion Stainless Drip Tip - 510/901/KR808

I ordered it with the AGA-T+ atty. Didn't fit it worth a hoot.

Guess that post was kinda misleading. You only need the Protank base, collar and coil. Plus a drip tip that will fit over the center post.
I'll update it so it's a bit clearer on the parts used.

That is a nice drip tip. Much want.

EDIT: Much bought. :D

Nice way to save and make usable your broken Protank. Mine the bottom section came off the glass on the first tank of melon juice. No dropping or anything. Have a replacement coming for it. Very strange this happened, seems like there wasn't enough epoxy in the bottom to hold it together. Maybe I can repair it? if not this idea of a dripper is very interesting.

The entire thing is epoxied together, top bottom & center tube. So, yeah.. you should be able to use some food grade epoxy & fix it right up. If nothing else, it would be worth fixing just as a spare.
Not that you'd need a spare.. LOL!

Very nice! Somebody needs to explain to me though why it is so common to "drop your device on concrete". Only 5 months now vaping, but I've never dropped mine, and can't really imagine how I would. I just don't get it, is it some sort of psychosomatic disorder or something?

Anyway, nice save there :)

It's Murphys' Law! :)

Just active people being active, would be my guess. I've dropped an 808 onto the sidewalk, but I was staggering home stone drunk from a party when that happened. Never dropped anything larger than that Halo G6, just because I don't generally leave the house with anything larger than a Halo G6 -- precisely because I'm paranoid about having it in my hand and being jostled, or who-knows-what. I'm not rich enough that I can afford to lose my e-cig to droppage, so I don't take any chances.

ToeJam, you apparently don't have an 80lb chocolate lab that acts like you've been gone for years each day when you get home, goes absolutely nuts, often piddling on the floor she's so happy to see you, tail waggin, running in circles, and jumping all over you for a couple minutes in pure love and happiness your home. Wouldn't change it for the world, and it's cost me several broken tanks :).

Seriously though, I've never dropped the ego style mods when I used those. The big battery mods, with a combination being heavier and more polished, I do drop occasionally. Even without my monster dawg attacking me.

The drip tip pictured in your OP is not the one you linked to above, its actually The Cyclone Drip Tip, I have the exact same one & the only place Ive found it is: (-->VaporBeast<--) It is very possible that you ordered the one you linked to but for some reason got the Cyclone instead, but I digress. Very nice DIY dripper, I love to see innovation like this, thanks for posting & keep up the creativity.

Great use of the broken protank. I've broken two, threw first one away :( , kept second. Yes, they do explode on contact with hard surfaces. I have found replacement parts for tanks, bottoms and of course heads/coils, so I'm back in business with a protank again. Very innovative. So happy you shared with us. Will definitely check it out.
