Love it! I was looking to get more IBtanked..do all dual color swirls come in a half and half, meaning top half one color swirl, bottom another or can they mix the colors throughout?

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.

I've been getting a lot of flavor using the Trident (micro/cotton) setup. The only reason I purchased the IBTank was forum hype.

So I sent an e-mail to Mrs OCD to ask some opinions...

I'll ask here too since some of you have a lot more IBTanked caps lying around and obviously have ProVari's as well :D

I really dig the IBTipsy drip tips with the recessed skirts... So, how well do the clear anodized caps match up with the brushed stainless top cap of the ProVari?

Will the clear anodized IBTipsy drip tip look okay on top of a stainless cap?

Decisions, decisions... I wanna make sure when I order another tank for my Lavatube, I get a good cap/tip combination that will look good on this bold red swirl tank... And then I'll just swap out the caps when it gets here... Or see if they'll ship it to me with the caps not installed on the new tube...

I love the IBTipsies; I've got blue, red and old gold rooks. I just received a set of clear anodized caps (also have black anodized & stainless) from IBT and IMO, a clear anodized IBTipsy on top of a stainless cap would be akin to putting a matte/brushed SS tip on a polished SS cap.

I don't have any RBA yet, but I think the Davide and ET-S even beat cartos for flavor. All the new BCD do, they're pretty amazing for such little heads. The ET-S is an ego thread for Egos... so judging by what others have been saying about RBA's... I think I need to try that next!!

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.

Exactly why I'm thinking the Diver's will make all the difference with the tanks... I can build the coils how I like them with the materials for the best TFV, and with no poly/whatever filler like the store bought carto's to mute. Means a little extra effort to build coils, at about $55 each the Diver's are an investment, but the rewards should be worth both.

Vape Mail... more toys.

Just checked tracking and see the PO delivered a package today from IBT. So I'll take the hike to the MB sometime tonight. This will be the replacement tube I bought for the first IBT tank's Bold Black Swirl tube that the paint job on left a lot to be desired, and another complete tank. Went with different tube colors/patterns this time and no "swirls". So I'll see if they did better with a solid color tube and a mottled tube.

The PO also delivered one from VIP. That'll be the carto punch they are so proud of.

I've given the Diver or the Sophia some thought the past couple of weeks. Maybe they can breathe some life back into the carto for me, but I still have the Russian 91 on the way and I want to give the Taifun GT a try also. Maybe I'll pick one up and some of the pre-made R/NR wire. Might be fun trying to put a cotton build in one :D
