Kanger Unitank

My new iClear30 has been leaking into the mouthpiece..any words of wisdom...other than fluffing out coils?

I'm using the unitank and am pleased to report that it performs exactly like the pt1 and the pt2, except it costs more and has more moving parts.

Is it easy to fill? I have a side fill carto tank that I have to use a blunt needle tip to fill..I like the tank but a pain to fill.

It's not terribly hard. You just unscrew the top and make sure you don't lose the spring.

can a fruit juice like Hawaiian punch from tfa be used in that ?

I am glad to see the price has gone down. One will go on my wish list.

Same hit and miss performance of a protank 1 and 2. Mechanical parts help a bit with flooding gurgling and I think it helps a tiny bit with wicking. Its a little tricky compared to the other protanks to take the coil out when its fully juiced up. This tank is a bit more messy IMO, I seem to smell juice on my hands a lot more when I handle the unitank. Carto tank is still here keeping me sane. I have tried it all and the good old carto tank has been the most reliable. But when the protanks/unitanks/evods are working they have a fantastic flavor.

The unitank would've replaced my PT2 if it were fully disassmblable. Since it isn't you can't change the PC tank to a Pyrex tank. Hopefully they release a new version where you can change tanks just like the PT2.

I have found absolutely no reference at all from Kanger stating the UniTank is glass. If you look at that picture, it looks like plastic. Otherwise, you wouldn't see those threads for the base.

Unless that's just a mockup that hasn't been finalized, there's no way it's a glass clearo.

^^ This ... I am almost positive that the Unitank is polycarbonate, not pyrex .. I was all set and ready to place one into my cart a last week, but when I read the description it was not pyrex, and so I didn't bother. You can look at the photo the OP posted and see that is definitely not pyrex ... which also makes me wonder why Kanger even bothered with this ... and its too bad because I like the revisions/top filling, but I would not buy this on the strength of the plastic alone.

I suspect that twin-chamber tank has something to do with it not being glass. When you crack a Protank, it's pretty obvious, and you're unlikely to keep using it. And even if you did, so long as you don't take it apart, there's no chance of glass getting into the tube. With the Unitank, and its spring-loaded tube, it seems like you could crack the tank separator and end up inhaling tiny bits of glass.

Just a theory, obviously. Glass, with the two-chamber design, would be pretty tough to make to begin with (maybe an extra metal ring as a tank separator?), not to mention expensive, and the thing is already more expensive than a PT2...

What is? The unitank? It retails for $17 though and the PT2 retails around $19-$22

My mistake, it's a buck fifty cheaper even at my usual shop.
