Ive been using a VTR for a couple months with both tanks you mentioned. Here are my 2 cents:
1. The iClear is easier to deal with and doesn't leak. Just fill it and go.
2. The Aerotank is kinda temperamental and leaks a bit. I got it because I wanted a glass one for all of those "tank cracker" juices like cinnamon.
3. The iClear 30s cant really be rebuilt but I guess the Aerotank can if that is important to you...
4. I think that the flavor is a bit better with the Aerotank but the iClear seems to give more throat hit IMO
I'm waiting on a nautilus. Got scammed on the order though. I had two AeroTanks and they both broke within a week. I'm not buying those again. I still like the iclear though.
Ive read good things about the nautilus but expensive little guys. I decided to buy 3 iClear 30s' for the same price. Still might pick one up.
What broke on your AeroTanks? Was it the actual glass? I am paranoid about dropping this and breaking the glass.
What about the 16B?if you go the iClear route definitely get the 30s and not the 30b. The 30b's are garbage.
Nautilus doesn't fit inside the ring on a VTR, and looks dumb as turds IMO on top of it. I personally like my PT2 with an aerobase, or my Davide on my VTR.
Oh, I didnt realize that a Nautilus wont fit inside a VTR! Dealbreaker. Definitely will not use the gigantic adapter as I agree, it looks dumb on top of it. Well, thats too bad. Guess I wont be getting a nautilus!
The Iclear30S is a beast of a tank...coils last a LONG time( mine has over 100 tanks on the same coil with only rinsing and a few vodka soaks) and the flavor is like a carto with the ease of a clearo. Drawbacks are first 1/2 of first tank is a bit muted...hard to swap flavors and not tank cracker friendly
I also love my protank2's that have been upgraded with areo bases
How do you like the 30b?I like my iclear30s and I have the 30B too.
