I don't know what PV you are using, but I highly recommend the Viv Nova version 2.5. The Vivi Nova had a very rough start and has been through many revisions, but they seem to have it right with the version 2.5. It is getting very good reviews here and I have 5 of them myself without one single issue of any kind. Try one and see what you think. Much less of a hassle than almost any other tank or clearomizer.
Hello Rick, I bought a j-tank because I like cartomizers. It is a great tank no leaking but hard for me to use with arthritis in my hands. I recently purchased a min-sub tank from mom and pop vapors. It is supposed to be easier to fill. I have not received it yet. I will let you know if it is a winner.
Hi and welcome to ECF.
Delivery Systems
atomizer/ atty- an element on to which 3-4 drops of juice is dripped
cartridge/ cart- a container with sponge (filled with juice) that is used with the atty- juice drips on to atty from cart and is vaporized
cartomizer/ carto- metal tube with stuffing and element.
carto+tank- a carto with a hole punched in it. Carto is than placed in a glass, metal or plastic tank which is filled with juice- juice saturates carto by way of hole in carto.
Clearomizer- a plastic or metal tank with a wick and element. Contains NO stuffing.
I began with Boge cartos and moved up to 1.7 Smok Tech XL cartos. Next I went to carto+ tank. Am now using V2 Stardust clearomizers and am quite happy. Although they are rebuildable it's not easy. The new V3 Stardusts are easily rebuildable and you can buy extra wicking/ coil parts for them.
Some swear by the Vivi Nova, another clearomizer, but they are quite expensive.
I heard good AND bad about both the Stardust and Vivi Nova.
Edit: This is the tank I used- doesn't look so pretty but super easy to fill.

I also have a j-tank I'm using with punched cartos and a ego twist. No complaints or problems. Love my setup!
I am looking for advice on a good tank system best brand and model.
I am currently using Johnson Creek smoke juice and filling carts-they only last me about 1 day and then start tasting poorly to me but i really like the Juice--I am new to this and just need a little help!!
Thanks
I'm new to this myself but I'm currently using a riva 510 with one of these
Kanger T2 2.4ml Tank £4.99 - Vaping Spares - Tanks & Accessories Electronic Cigarettes | Vaping Devices | Accessories | E-Liquid
Not sure how I do links on here
I'm finding it brilliant plenty of vapour and throat hit/ flavour seem good using ry4 getting me through most of the day (about 9-10 hours) of what I'd call heavy use. Other here may have more experience than me and my 3 days with it
but for £5 I'd say it was worth a go.
Did you have any problems with a plastic taste when the vivi nova was new? I bought as 3ml phoneix tank and had to trim the wicks and wash it out. The plastic taste was just to strong and I wasted the juice. It is working great now but is a cool vape. Is the vivi nova a cooler vape?
It is a great tank I am not saying that. It is just hard to use for older people with hand issues. It has never leaked great tank.
Sewlovely9, I use them straight out of the box and have not noticed any plastic or unusual tastes. They are a cooler vape, work better with lower voltages than most.
The VMOD from Vapage. Be sure to buy the latest update because it is compatible with any 510 carts of attys.
Yep Flyer,
You have that right the Vision ViVi Nova Tank System version 2.5 is Awesome. I have 4 nova's 2-new / 2-old , they all are pretty good. The old version has air holes on the edge of the bottom chrome base and long wicks....
The new one has short wicks and the air holes are just above the 510 threads on the bottom post...
For real, you can't go wrong with them at like $12.99 or so. You get 1-tank , 1-drip tip , 3-atomizers -1.8, 2.4 ,2.8 ohms ,
up to 4ml capacity , Plus you can buy metal tubes in differant colors.
Best Wishes.......

I haven't tried the VV, but I have four Stardust in my collection and they are fantastic. The flavor, to me, is as good as dripping and there are no leaking problems. I use my VMOD on the road and the Stardust at home. I am fortunate that the two storefronts in Vegas both carry the Stardust.
I have one of these:
WHITE 3ML DELRIN TANK ''aka'': The Fuel Tank
With a double slotted one of these:
5pc New CE2 Steel Cartomizers for 510/eGo
Nice!

If a Clearo is what your looking for Vision V2's are whats hot right now but for tanks that meet the drippers needs ....
Heard great things about these 2:
The Phiniac Tank - Phiniac Rugged Pyrex Glass Tanks
Drip Tips and eCig Supplies - KOSMIC GLASS
Id team them up with a DCHV 1.5 LR carto and go to town, unless your working with HV

Watch and learn. The Vivi Nova is the best option for the money, and the fact that you can rebuild it. here's all you need to know about it.

I first started with the ego-C Type B Tank and can tell you to stay clear of that. It leaks like mad. A little better prepunching a soft cap, but will still leak after a refill or two. Currently using a Stardust and have no complaints. Fairly easy to clean without taking apart. Have ordered a pack of CE3 XL's (aka Phoenix) and waiting to give those a try. Not too much experience other than steer clear of the ego tanks unless you like wasting juice and cleaning often.
I had been using a 510t setup until last Friday with the stock atty/tank setup, then i walked into a local vape store & found something that they called the holy grail. Turns out that its a re-named stardust & it completely changed my vaping satisfaction into a love affair. Even my wife (never a smoker) adored the experience with it
