So far nobody gave me straight answers to the 3 questions. I want to know which system delivers more reliability, flavor and vapor, cartos or protank.
I use a vamo with 50/50 white truffle juice. with an 18350 and sometimes 18650 battery.
About reliability I mean for example today I drove to the shop with my vamo fitted with aga t2 in my pocket. I take it out during the drive to puff and this always happens the coils must have moved and I taste a hotspot like always when i'm driving. Of course I need to take off the cap and fiddle with the damn coils during driving. I mean this is just ridiculous! this whole system sucks and i'm getting really tired of it.
Every little movement can wack the damn coils and u get a hotspot with ss mesh its so annoying!
I'll answer the best I can. I don't own a ProTank, but I have used plenty of other clearotanks. They use a similar string wick atomizer head; some are top coiled and some are bottom coiled. I found any of the top coiled string-wicked delivery devices to be a little on the fussy or "unreliable" side; you must frequently tip or swirl the device to keep the strings wet or you will get dry hits (which I find annoying). These often mute certain flavors, some to the point that the juice tastes like unflavored.
With the Protank being a bottom coiled tank, one would like to believe it would not be so position dependent as the top coiled tanks. But it is still dependent upon strings to wick juice to the heating coil. In contrast, a cartotank's heating coil is totally surrounded by polyfiller which bathes it in juice constantly.
My preferred delivery device for over a year has been pyrex cartotanks, more specifically the IBTanked. I have seven of the 19mm XL tanks, and just today ordered five more IBTanks in the 22mm XL size. How does that sound in terms to loyalty to a product you can depend upon?
I find cartotanks provide better flavor production. They are more consistant if you use a quality cartomizer. I too use Ikenvape carts. Cartotanks are not position dependent like the clearo devices are. A quality tank with proper fitting o-rings is not going to slip off the tank nor leak.
That's as specific as I can be, based on my honest experience. I'm sure you'll have someone say that they have had just the opposite experience of cartotank vs clearotank. Cartotanks do have a small learning curve, but if you follow a proven setup method you shouldn't have an issue with them. If you click the link under my avatar, you will find a series of blog articles, one of which is a step-by-step tutorial of the method I use successfully with my cartotanks.

FYI, I've had similar experience as you with my AGA T2 tanks. When they are working on all cylinders, there's not a better vape. But they are quite unpredictable and unreliable; they will leak when laid down on their side, and require a consistant backup delivery device. Mine happens to be pyrex cartotanks.
