I didn't heed the warning about tank cracking with MBV juices. I took some thug juice and vaped with a MT3/EVod clearomizer. It was wonderful, so I used the cherry-limeade next. WIthin two puffs, I saw cracks forming on the tip. It started to move up and I could see it split.

Amazing sight.

I've used other brands, but none of them had this effect. Is this stuff safe in your lungs?:blink:

It can happen fast with any juice. You want an evod style tank try fast tech and RGM2 as they look the same and take the same heads. Also they are glass. I have 5 and tried one of the worse tank crackers today black licorice. they are 3.32 and if you spend 15 bucks you get USPS shipping free. Took me 10 days to get mine. Sometimes they are on backorder so it takes 4-5 days to prepare shipment. I have 10 more coming for people at work.

Citrus/fruity liquids are abrasive to cheap plastic. They are abrasive even in their natural form. Example: Lemon is often used as a cleaning material, as is orange. Some people use those types of cleaners because they are considered "Safer" than traditional chemical cleaners.
Orange juice can hurt your stomach and give you heart burn. But people still drink it. Thug Juice is a grape/watermelon/menthol blend and is not citrusy, but since it is a fruit and may be acidic, that is likely why it cracked your tank. Thug Juice also happens to be a favorite of mine. I like it in my ProTank at 2.2ohms and 4.1 volts. :)

It is a good bet that the safest thing to do is no vaping at all. However, to judge the safety of particular juices that crack plastic is not a good argument. I would be more concerned about the safety of the plastic rather than the juice.

In fact, if your plastic tank cracks, be sure to throw it out right away. Plastic is 100% man made and uses lots of chemicals to create it. Vaping juice out of one that has cracked through cannot be safe for anyone.

I agree that glass is the way to go. EVODS themselves are cheap in price, but still made of plastic. If there are EVOD style clearo's that are glass, that would be great to use. But even regular plastic EVOD tanks I think are made of a better quality plastic than CE4's and other cheap-o clearomizers.
