Anyone know if the pyrex tanks on these get etched or or anything as a result of acidic flavorings? Like lemon. Or maybe that was just with the plastic ones??

Glass is safe with any juice. It's plastic that you have to be careful with.

Grrr. like every other tank I own. Kayfun and a mesh wick rssssssst or something. I'll just sacrifice the kayfun for tasting I guess. I think the mesh wick one would be bad for flavor. I might buy a second Merlin, I could start to see the need in having 2 of them now. When I first started vaping Kayfun was the big hype at the time for flavor and whatnot, but IMO the Merlin is like a billion times better at juice flow, wicking, air flow, and flavor.

Symbol for "luck".HD

WINNER:

"Just some factoid, @roxynoodle said the "8" was a lucky number in China. And it is! Because in Chinese "8" rhymes with great fortune & prosperity. What ingenious minds at Augvape putting it on an RTA for a logo! So your Merlin can be your lucky charm as well! Symbolizing great fortune & prosperity!"

I really wish I would have checked the height when I re-wicked it this morning with rayon so I could reply to that but I have been getting great flavor out of this (perhaps the best of the 3 RTAs I have in rotation) with the clapton coil I have in it, and the other 2 RTAs in rotation are both dual coils (but only one is clapton I think).

Just cleaned and dry burned both mine. I lowered my coils as close as possible to see if the flavor is any different. Where do you have your coils in the Merlins? I'm finding a little more flavor with them closer to the air hole.
I moved mine closer and the flavor got alot better but I also changed the resistance and airflow. Next time I will just try moving the coil I will keep you posted.

I still have that notch that came with the tank in. The coil was a little too wide and the leads had to kinda bend inward then out to fit. But I have them in the top screws of the post. Will this thing short out if the coil touches the airflow insert? If the carbon builds up enough is that enough to make a connection?

Well, metal shouldn't touch metal. That said, no, the carbon buildup will not be sufficient to make a connection and short anything out.

Does subtank supply (or any reputable dealer) have the new base in stock? I'm gonna order another today but I'm done with the seeping of the old style. Thanks

not sure what the new one is compared to the old, but this is a picture of mine I ordered from subtanksupply.
