How long have you been vaping for? Are you asking about different rebuildable models or just any tank in general? If you're still not a whole lot experienced with vaping I would avoid rebuildable atty's and tanks for the time being. Start off with a simple carto tank. These you can find at almost any ecig supplier.

I just found the smoktech version of the vivi nova(I am assuming its actually smoktech, knock offs everywhere) that I have fallen in love with. It has a spring loaded pin so it always works, uses the same heads as the redux clearo. but I have only found it in a slim version. BTW, first post ever, but not a newbie vaper at all!

Well i started with a ego-c and just received my provari i have a vivi nova tank but i dont like it not enough vapor
[EDIT]:
I had the exact same problem with my Vivi Nova. I tried several things to try and fix it but the draw is just too stiff and you don't get a lot of vapor at all.. Great taste though. Anywho, just like everyone is saying, try the carto tank. I'll include a link to a popular site where you can pick up a standard tank. You can find them in stainless and such as well but this a very generic model.


Oops, I guess that tank was out of stock. Here all of their tanks that they offer.

Hey, sumdumpanda. Welcome to ECF. I've read the previous posts and my buddies have given you links to tanks and cartomizers already.

Before spending a lot on a premium tank, I would recommend an IBTanked as your first cartotank for your Provari. You can get one for around $25 if that's not too much. That's actually pretty inexpensive for a pyrex tank.

IBTanked - Get Tanked With Us!

You can see the above images of IBTanks on Provari's. The first shows identical Provari's with two lengths of tanks, an XL and standard.

The standard tank will need a 35mm length carto. (Boge, Ikenvape)

The XL tank will need a 45mm length carto. (Smoktek tank replacements, Boge XL, Ikenvape Mega)


You can purchase carto's on the IBTanked website. The Smoktech can be purchased there with the laser drilled holes. The Boge carto's are unpunched, but they sell a carto punch tool for about $3.oo. They also sell drip tips that you will need for a tank if you don't already have some.

Whichever tank or carto you end up deciding to use, I recommend a single coil cartomizer of 2.5 - 3.0 ohm with one or two laser-drilled holes.

At least while learning the cartotank system, I recommend getting your cartomizers laser-drilled. I can provide a list of vendors if you have trouble locating these.

In fact, there is a list of these vendors in my blogs, in the link under my analog-loaded revolver avatar. I have instructions on how to set up a cartotank there also.
