plastic drip tip on the black and white?? Why? And the coating is flaking off? I really dont like the coating being on the inside of the tank, theres really no reason. They need to wash these tanks before sending them out at the least. But really not comfortable with the coating being IN the tank.
Kangertech is advertising the color as an Aqueous (electrolytically plated) Ceramic coating, of which is used to protect jet engine turbine blades. I feel pretty good with that.

I'm glad the black comes with red o rings. All I'll have to order is black ones and will be good to go.
Black when feeling low key, and red when I'm feelin' frisky. Haha
They may throw in black orings. My STMini came with red and black.

Did you upgrade to USPS on those orders? It was only an extra 1.88 on mine. Could find any reason not to, at that price.

Extra "YAY" if the kit shows with black o rings too! Hehe
I think so. I think it was around a dollar, so why not. It will ship with black orings.

I buy from Vapingcheap.com too, but it looks like Vape Super Saver still has them for $54.99, with free shipping and a promise to ship all pre-orders the day it arrives. (6/6/15 - 6/15/15) I've never ordered from them, but that's a pretty sweet deal.
VSS is where I ordered mine from. Some pretty good things said about them on Reddit. Evidently, it's a one man band operation that mainly deals with Kangertech. I like the idea of supporting such a business, as that is how my own is ran.

Vaping in the world through rose colored tanks. I like it!
This website also has custom glass tanks. There is a frosted glass with a white skull that would look good on the white and black box. I wonder if she does custom...black glass with a red dragon.....shinyitis..

    Be warned of them cheap replacement glass tanks for subtanks from fasttech, the color comes off really easy, they are not colored glass, but painted, I had a blue one for full size subtank, and the blue started just wiping off from it within a week of getting it, once is started coming off, I just used rubbing alcohol to remove it altogether.

    Do you already use a STMini, and if so did it come with extra red orings?
    No, so far my first foray into the sub ohm (tank) territory is with the 1100 mAh Ego One, which has been a complete game changer for me. So much that I ordered the Mega kit. Realizing the One tank/coil is kind of an Achilles Heel, if you will, I started researching more capable tanks with RBA offerings. Until this discovery, Delta 2 was the only option in black. (out of Delta, SM, and Lemo 2) So when this kit came out... needless to say I was super stoked.

    Crap! Thanks for the heads up, Nailz. If that is the case, I'll test the glass with solvent before putting into use. Fortunately, It was of such small expenditure.

    Well, back to the Spectrum offerings...
    Speaking of which, can anyone out there corroborate Spectrums "graphite" color to be grey/black?
    Thank you in advance!

    Yes I wasn't too bummed about it, as still had a spare tank glass for very little money, it was only wiping juice off the glass the color started coming off, but you get what you pay for :)
