Much better PT2

[MotherNatural]

Last week I bought two (always need a back up) pro tank 2s to use on my Zmax. Straight out of the box one worked fine (*edit..I originally said it worked great but now I know better) but the second one had issues. The draw on it was so tight it was like trying to drink an extra thick milk shake with a swizzle stick. Barely even usable. I took it apart, fiddled with it, loosened it up, tightened it up…nothing. So I went ahead and ordered an aerotank base for it. Vapemail finally arrived today (less than a week but so anticipated) and...Ahhhh. Success. So much better. Nice airy draw and tons of vapor. All is well in the world today.

If I may ask, where'd you find an Aerotank base in stock? I want 3, and everywhere I look they're OOS. (CC in hand waiting)
TIA

 

[MotherNatural]

Still in stock at litecigusa or it can be ordered from Kanger's site.

 

[umanbean]

Great, thanks. Headed there now.

Googly took me to sun-vapers and a couple more places that were sold out.

 

[MotherNatural]

Guess I was lucky. So many others have said they are sold out everywhere. Hope you're lucky too! It arrived much quicker than I had anticipated also.

If this is the one that the OP was talking about then Kanger ProTank Air Control Base has them. I had the same problem with my Protank 2 and getting regular replacment bases for it didn't work. I ordered one of these so I hope it helps.

 

[MotherNatural]

Yup, that's the one and that's where I bought it. What a huge difference. You'll love it!

 

[umanbean]

Done... 3 on order.

Now I know what the problem was, I went to litecigusa, but searched for "aerotank", not "protank air control base".

Thanks again.

 

[MotherNatural]

Oh, great. Glad you found it. I just switched out my second one and filled it with my favorite juice. This is a whole new vaping experience. They'll probably find me passed out tomorrow morning in a vape fog.

Moved to Clearomizers

Yeh yeh. The aero tank base completely changed the pt2 experience. I can usually use it on my provari now. Phew

Anyone try using the kanger airflow control valve ($4.95) on a PT2? Instead of buying the areotank kit or just the areo base.
Wondering how it compares to using the aero base (or is it the same device). Also, wondering why they (Kanger) advertise an air control valve for an aero when it already has one!? Same damn product?! Confused...

 

[TheKiwi]

The airflow
Control valve is simply the airflow control part of the aerotank

I only ask because there's a visible difference in the two (in the knurling for sure), so I thought I'd throw the question out there. Maybe someone has both.

Just a guess, but could the base be designed to allow the single coil heads to be used in the ProTank 2 yet still allow for an Aerotank-like adjustment? Otherwise I too don't understand why the ProTank 2 could even use such a thing.

Anyone know if the aerotank base fits the unitank and works....

Yes, the aerotank base or "protank air control base" as it's called fits the original PT2 single coil. I simply replaced the base and used the existing coil. It made a huge difference in my set up.

I thought if you got the Aerotank base and used it with a ProTank you needed to use the dual coil heads, ie. effectively turning the ProTank into an Aerotank but what you say means it still is a single coil device. Am I completely confused here or ?

Yes, still a single coil.
