What tank is that? Is it a clear one-piece?

It's the full size M-tank.

They are available over eBay for pretty cheap (though still much more than a small piece of plastic should cost), and the EHPro KFL+ v2 comes with one, though not the "smoke" colored one.

I have several from my various EHPro KFL+ v2 RTAs I own, but right now I only have 2 in use.

They also make a nano M-tank which is also available on eBay.

How did you fill in the lines on the Provari 2.5? Acrylic paint?

It started off as blue provari, then I stripped the paint off. The concave areas remained painted, So never painted it.
I have a pic of a red one that I stripped as well in this thread somewhere.

I was thinking of doing this to an older mini that has some scratches anyway....what was your process as far as sandpaper grit? From what grit number to end with what grit number? I guess you just have to be careful to sand lightly around the grooves so that paint is not removed, correct? Thanks for any info, I like that!

Yep, a smoke colored M-tank... it's my favorite by far! Also since getting the M-tank, I can use one of the regular Kayfun rings as a beauty ring for a smooth look, since the flat-top Sigelei isn't *really* flat, but has a big gap due to its 510 connector sitting so high. It takes a little fiddling with the center post, have to make sure it's stuck out just far enough to contact the battery post, but short enough so that the ring doesn't rattle around -- sometimes I have to adjust it 2 or 3 times, but I'm getting better, and can just about eyeball the right tiny amount it should be extended.

Think I'm going to get a frost-white M-tank next, and I was thinking a red tank with a red driptip would also look good with the stainless.

The colored tanks only work like you think they should when you have a clear or near-clear colored juice inside. I have a few colored tanks, and the color gets all fugged up when you pour in something that has color of its own.

Hmm, that's true; my juice is a medium golden color. Maybe a yellow-translucent tank and a gold driptip. :D
