lord33 the mesuraments you put for the katana tank from Mcmaster Carr are they correct can i go ahead and order it or will there be some differents. because poc was saying they are all made differently

The tubing posted earlier does work, but is not ideal and needs some heat manipulation to get fitted right. Those are only emergency when you cannot get the right tube.

The measurements for the tubing needed for the Katana tank are 16mm ID x 20mm OD x 2mm thick - 30mm tall. :)

I hope that I did not mistakenly post that the McMaster-Carr tubing was a perfect fit for the Katana.

One thing to keep in mind is that this size tubing is very hard to source in the USA. I ended up ordering tubing from Australia for mine. I can supply links for the long tube i bought and for tubes already cut to size from the plastics manufacturer in Croatia that POC gets them from if anyone needs them. POC has a deal with the company in Croatia to supply these already cut to size for people when they ask for them too.

I got it on through a friend and it unfortunately came cracked. Noo leaks or anything, just looks bad.
It's vaping incredibly though! My current coil is setup perfectly, and I bored out the airflow hole, so the draw is airier and there's less th, but it just chugs vapor like no other! Using 3 wraps of 36g

Hell yeah man! It's been my all day vape since I've ha it and I'm really happy with it! Have barely touched my Odys really! Not that I don't love them, but the flavor on the katana is just something else...gotta drop down to 2 wraps though. Need more th and heat to compensate for the bored out air hole. Might even try a .9 ohm dual coil if I muster up the courage to change up my current setup

Hey guys--

Here is a quote from POC from a while back on where replacement tanks can be found. These can be ordered cut to the right length from the shop where he initially got them so they should be perfect. I believe I posted this here on ECF before somewhere, but can't find it now :)

I was reading, as a guest of course on ECF some users can't find spare pleksi tube for Hybrid or Katana.
I'm talk with owner of store where I was bought this pleksi tubes and he said he can cut tubes on desired dimension and send it to users over the world.
I don't know what price will be per tube because he sell only 2m rods. But I ask him to do this for all of you and cut in small pieces and he said that's ok even he don't sell international.
So, all of you need to contact him and ask to send you a pleksi tubes OD 20mm, ID 16mm, H 30mm.
You can contact him and put link of his store on ECF. * * VaroplasT * * - Pleksiglas cijevi i profili, popravak plasti
I hope I help.

For those of you that prefer to make your own, here is where I get my Acrylic tube for the Katana and Hybrid Mini.

Oh, I almost forgot. Here are the pics of the original coil and wick in a first-run ooSturmoo G-Tank. Still working perfectly, vapes like a cannon :)

He wanted $50 for 10 tubes before shipping, so I lost interest at that point. :-/

lord33 if that the case we all know that everybody is going to want one or two tank if not three, we should open a co=op for it so people don't order wrong tanks sizes and waist there money, should we open a co=op prepaid not you buy??? and i will pay later??/ you know the size it comes in and the size we need, lets do a prepaid, where you collect the money up front so if they cancel oh? well, no refunds what so ever, you have a katana, you are going to need extra tanks, poc after 3rd batch is going to be on a 3 to 4 month vacation so good luck, lord i need your input on this i am in put me down for 3 tanks where do i pay?
