I was at the local flee market and ran upon a lil booth that had seemingly good prices so I bough a few bottles of juice and a clearomizer. Kinda last minute as they were closing and the nice fellow said he would throw it in for $6.Only details I got was its Glass , bottom coil and rebuildable. I've been using it the past few hours and so far I'm impressed but this is the first one of this design I have used .Mostly I'm just curious but if it keeps performing well I may try to find some replacement coils/parts .I can go back and get more details but it would be next weekend due to their hours .I have searched to no avail so any help will be appreciated. Thanks all .

Could it be these? Pyrex ARO V2 Bottom Coil Tank

If it is then they should have the coils for it on the site as well. I have these ARO Pyrex Bottom Coil Tank which is basically the same thing only bigger with a different drip tip. I have heard that you can also use TS3 coils in them as well. I dug out a old one and so far its working pretty good.

My Aro pyrex units have a smooth taper to the drip tip, which is not removeable. And the window is a different shape as well.

Can you put up a pic of it taken apart? So we can have a look at the business end? Regardless of what it is, a T3S coil may fit, as they work in a lot of different BCCs. And being able to replace the coils is the important thing, yes?

Man that looks like it (The first link ), even the internals. I really like it so far , better than the top coil disposables I have tried ans I like them as well .The tip/mouthpiece is small and took a bit of getting use to but not a big deal. When I tried to post pics it said invalid then attachment to big. I will try again. Thanks so much for the help. I have been away ( from the forum ) for a while but I remember why I like it so much , everyone is so helpful and nice .

The one cocacola referenced is a plastic body, not glass, per the link.

The one I was referring to, that looks different, can be seen here: ARO Pyrex Bottom Coil Tank

I have uses T3S coils in it, and I believe the plastic version will take them just fine. :)

Some like top coils, some prefer bottom coils. Imo, good to try both to make your decision, and ANYTHING rebuildable is better than disposable! :laugh:

PT, T3, original Aro, and several others all look pretty much the same, so hard to tell from the pics.

Subtle differences in them. Some have longer or shorter air tubes.

The T3 has the smaller diameter on the ring near the bottom - looks like a thin flat washer, but isn't a washer.

Without an accurate measure of that diameter - got digital calipers handy? :) - no real way to tell which style unless you see them both together. The smaller ones go in lots, the bigger ones not as many.

Whichever spare heads you have around, try one. It will either leak or not. If not, you're probably in business.
