Liquid Info

[thebeach4me]

I've been vaping off and on for a few years..I am back to vaping full-time ♥..I've been totally addicted to Boba's Bounty for a while now. I ordered the sample pack from Mtn. Vapors, they all tasted the same to me a very licorice scent and taste. (not bad just not my taste) I have tried several sample packs over time, and keep coming back to Boba's for the taste and vapor it produces. I am looking for a honey flavor , and a good mocha flavor and a good tobacco flavor..I also ordered a Strawberry, loved the flavor but was very thick and didn't work well in my cartomizer. I ordered some other sample packs from some of the bakery sites, and didn't care for them either. Any suggestions? I use Ego and cartomizers, Im on the go too much for a tank..Bought a clearomizer and not as much vapor as liquid with a carto...

I use Ego and cartomizers, Im on the go too much for a tank.

Just curious about this statement. Have you ever used a cartotank?

I use them them pretty much exclusively and they are perfect for someone on the go. Fill one up at night and (depending upon the tank's liquid capacity) you are good to go for 1 - 2 days of carefree vaping. They only take an additional one minute longer to fill than a cartomizer used solo.

I bought a few tanks from ibtanked a few months ago and use them every day. I have yet to experience a leak.

The leaking issue was only relevant years ago when the first tanks were being offered for sale. Since then, many improvements have been made to prevent cartotanks from leaking. I've use them almost exclusively for the past several months now and have never had a tank leak yet. I do recommend avoiding the cheaper economy tanks made with the polycarbonate (clear plastic) tubes, as many of those might leak.

A polypropylene (frosted plastic) tubed cartotank, or better yet a pyrex glass cartotank both fit snug on the cartomizer. No fear of leaking in a purse. Both products are safe to use with the cinnamon and citrus flavors that have been known to crack or melt the clear plastic tanks.

Well I hate to do this but I have to let everyone know. This forum is all about help and support. This time Baditude I have to dispute what you said about the quality of the new tanks. Rules won't let me go into details but a lot of shops are selling cheep!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! carto/tanks. I've tried to teach people and owners on how to care and fill and prime them.(Just like you taught me). These cheep tanks are junk. I've never seen one that would seal like a good tank would. And by good tank you of all people know what brand I'm talking about. All I can add is to drop the extra cash and don't buy junk. If the tanks slips on the carto when it's brand new, then it will get worse when it's full. Take care bro. (I really never seen such a piece of junk in my small vaping time). But then I learned from the Best.

I have my first tank on the way, but I have used clearos. With those I use the condom (the little rubber thing that came with it) and stand them upright in my purse. No problem with spillage there. Tanks should be more secure, as Baditude has said, because they are sealed alot better. And if you were concerned, you could always just throw it in a baggie.

I got my Vision Vivinova at Altsmoke.com. I use the "condom" to go over my drip tip. never had an issue yet of any leakage. I have mine in a case with my charger, extra atty head, some friend tips and a small bottle of juice.

Check out the grommet style tanks available from Valley View Vapes or Vape Dudes. They are affordable, have a side-fill screw for easy on-the-go top-offs and since the carto is held in pace by a rubber grommet it will not slip out.

(Regarding rules - is it ok to mention vendors, and just not essentially post a negative review in this forum? I will edit my post if the above is a violation.)

I purchase mine from My Vapor Store 510 Pro DCTank Combo. This comes as a tank kit for $22.50 and includes the tank, a drip tip, and 5 pre-drilled holed cartos in your choice of single/dual coils and resistance rating (ohm). For an eGo battery, you would want the slimmer 3.5ml tank.

The IBTanked pyrex tanks are also available in a kit for $25 and includes the tank, the correct carto to fit the tank, and a combination tank tool/drip tip. IBTanked - Get Tanked With Us!

My favorite honey juice is sold by good ol' Ben @ AVE - Bees knees. His strawberry cooler is also my favorite strwberry as well.

I fail to see where the dispute is, bro. The tanks that I recommend are always of high quality that I personally own and can recommend with no reservations.

I already stated to avoid the cheaper, economy tanks (less than $20). I never recommend a tank that uses the clear plastic tubes (polycarbonate), which is often an indicator of the overall quality of a tank. These tanks are a waste of money IMHO; however many people still use and like them.

I do recommend avoiding the cheaper economy tanks made with the polycarbonate (clear plastic) tubes, as many of those might leak.

Sorry Bro but I just wanted to give a big warning about the little cheap $10 dollar tanks. I have to try and fix this stuff now and it just makes me mad. I'm still trying to prode the owners to go to a certain vendor that we both use. If it slips when it's dry, then it just gets worse when it's got you favorite juice in it.

The job I have forbids me of saying certain things here. Sorry. Work is work and off time is my time. I won't risk either one because I love both.
You can mention a vendor If you really like em. I really enjoy my IB Tanks and also the Phiniac's that I have. I want more but already have more than I do flavors.
