I think I need a picture of it on your ProVari. Is that the white one in the back? I think it would look great on it. I was going to buy the halfling but Ocelot said they were hard to fill being so short.

What I really want to know is how anyone keeps a white keyboard white. Am I the only one with a dirty keyboard?

Here ya go Susan. I've only had this since yesterday. So far my juice taste like nothing and filling this thing is damn near next to impossible without something unexpected going wrong.


Keeping the keyboard white is easy- at least for me since I'm obsessed with the color and cant stand to see it too dirty.

You're too funny!! You took the picture with my avatar showing. How clever!!
Yeah, you're right, it looks better on your Zmax, though I still like it on the ProVari.
I get muted flavor from carto too but definitely the consistency is better than a Protank2. I think a syringe is needed to fill those halflings.

Kind of hard for me to tell cause it your tank and ProVari look orange to me.

I rec'd my 1st IBT hafling yesterday and I'm not sure how I feel about it. I told myself I'd never go back to cartos and I should've stuck to that. I literally taste nothing coming from it.

I did put it on my ProVari and it didn't look right. Actually looks better of the Zmax.

Is that the dimples for your vaping pleasure drip tip?

The 2nd fill up was with a syringe. I don't know how anyone can actually taste any flavor from a carto. When I say it tastes like nothing, I mean it tastes like nothing.

I wouldn't even called the flavor muted; just like non existent. As if I have no taste buds at all.

Which cartos are you using?

I think it looks pretty good. For a red Provari, with a red tank, and a red drip tip! Hard to tell colors on a computer, but everything seems to match great! You did a nice job!

Is it a 19mm tank?

The camera is being generous... The picture from the first post does a better job of showing how the red from the caps/drip tip are a lot different than the swirls/ProVari...

In the second picture, they look pretty close, and if it looked like that in person, I would be pretty happy with it.

It is a 19mm tank... I don't like the rings that cover up the top cap :)

I agree Larry- it looks damn good in this pic but the first pic posted, the lighting made everything look orange.

That's a real bummer. I can taste flavors and tell the differences in mine. I've never used a RBA or dripped so I don't know what that's like. Sounds like cartos aren't for you. Though, the tank you got is pretty nice. :)

Zombie mini. I ordered the green end caps. They look blue here. The 19mm halfling looks so tiny though. lol. Haven't found a green drip tip yet.

Verde Driptip

I saw one a few days ago that matched the Zombie green perfectly but cant recall from where. I try to remember to keep on the look out for it again.

I have never been a fan of carto's in any size, shape or form. They mute flavors to me, plain and simple. Why I had never bought a carto tank before. That said, I got about the same, nothing, from the Smok 3 ohm SC2H cartos I got with my first IBT tank (regular size, not Halfling). So I opened the way too small holes (IMO) up with an ice pick. Still not as clean as my atty's/dripper's or other tanks, but the flavors are getting through acceptably now??? Since I DIY I could make my liquids stronger for the carto tanks as well. But with two IBT's now and 3 custom carto tanks in process (so far), I already have 4-5 Diver's on the list to buy. They'll easily make them work very well. and they have the rebuildable advantage. ;)

What do you usually use/prefer that you feel gives you max flavor? I'm always looking for that potential "next thing". I have to say my IBtanked produced a pretty good amount of flavor but I'm not sure if its a ton of flavor, if that makes sense. Actually, I'm thinking my cartos may need to be swapped out.

Although I still use my carto tanks, they don't get near as much vape time anymore since I started using the Kayfuns and the Russian 91 once it finally gets here.

Right now, nothing that I've tried can beat a micro and cotton for flavor. I even use that setup in my dripping atty, but I'm not a huge fan of dripping unless it's sampling test batches that I've made.
