I think its an new improved type of CE2 also. Its a thicker wick. I just ordered one, so I will post my opinion the day I get it.
Looks like if you like CE2s you'll probably enjoy that tank.

A tank is a tank is a tank, as long as it doesn't leak it's pretty much all the same.

Got one of these yesterday from ecigexpress; they call it their Cartzilla. This thing is absolutely worth every penny. I've vaped almost 2.5 ml through it since last night. No leaks, no gurgles. Flavor is just like a CE2, and the vapor is huge! Though their web site says they are 2.8-3.2 ohms, mine meters out at 1.9 ohms. Makes it work very well on a 3.7 volt device, giving out LOTS of vapor. Looks pretty good and is sturdy; unlike the homemade tanks out of syringes and rubber ends. Tank is a clear, hard plastic, so be careful with the type of juice you use to prevent cracking. My juice in the tank is a DIY peach, 80% VG, and I have no problem with wicking (I DO always thin my VG with 20% water), though I can't speak for a pure VG liquid that has not been thinned.

If you are looking for a good CE2 tank at a minimal cost, this thing is great! Still haven't seen any replacement bottom end/CE2 units yet, though.

Thanks for the heads up. Haven't got mine yet but glad that it is working as it should.

The CE2 unit is made as a part of the bottom cap, so replacement of the bottom would be necessary. When my first one burns out, I'm gonna drill out the bottom cap and press fit a 510 extender into it. That way I should be able to replace the unit when needed by simply screwing in the guts of a regular length clearomizer.

This unit does NOT use cartomizers; it is a CE2 unit, with a top seal like the Vision units. I have been told that they are made by the same people, just different name. Gotvapes says they will soon have replacement bottom cap units, but I have not seen or priced them yet.

so I got this in today from ecigexpress and for me it's a total fail, when it wicks it hits great but half the time it doesn't wick right and then I emptied and refilled it with a different juice and it started leaking I didn't notice until it was all down the sides of my mod and all over my table maybe I'll try it again after I stop being mad at it but as of right now I think it was a waste of $8.95

Got mine Thursday. Had 'bout two hours of vaping bliss... then... da same ol' CE curse, dry acrid vape! When the tank got to 'bout half level is when the troubles started. I have to continually 'roll' it to get the joose to da coil. Even then, it's a crap shoot. Sure did enjoy the flav in the beginning.

I 'enlarged' the cup slots, still no joy...

I'm using 60PG/40VG in the 'ZILLA. I won't be a 'slave' to my equipment. Hopefully a decent fix will be discovered... When are 'they' gonna get it right.

Really disappointed!

Mines good so far. I use 100% pg. Running it at 3.3 volts. I only wish I burned the wicks before I filled it. Took awhile to break it in. Funky taste until my liquid over took. I'll use it all day Saturday and report back.
Rick what did you order? The tank, clearomizers or metal CE2's? and what is the ohm's.
I haven't tried clearomizers for over a year and was wondering if they still have the same issues of coming apart and leaking. I use the metal CE2's and am satisfied with them but it's time to try a few new things.
It's not unusual for them to stop wicking properly at half full. It's just one of the things you have to put up with if you want to use them. That's why I use the xl's. So far they are the only cartomizers I have tried that taste the same as dripping and I don't like the idea of inhaling melting polyfill.
