The tanks are great...my only word of caution is just don't be in a hurry while you're learning. If a tank is going to leak it seems to happen right when you fill/refill it. I try to fill them at night, instead of when I'm running out of the house in the morning. Best of luck...and you'll be glad you ordered them.

    Is it me or do the tanks kill the battery really quickly? Not complaining. I still love them, just wondering! Or, could it be my chargers? I have three new diamonds (two soft touch) do I need specific chargers for these beauties?

    Chimchim, they do kill the charge pretty quickly. I know that either Morandir or SD posted, either here or on the V4L forum, the various use times you could get with the tank, so you could probably find exact info there. However, from my experience, on the XL Manual KD, I get perhaps 1/2 the usage time with the tank than I get with a prefilled cart. Still worth it, IMHO, tho, so I just ordered xtra manuals ;)

    Ms. Chimchim they dual coils pull 2.56 amps at 3.85v (the amps go up as the voltage does) if it's rated for 1.5ohms at the minimum (there's a lot more to it, but not trying to bombard you with numbers). If a battery is rated say for 400mah, that means it can run for 1 hour at .4amps. You're pulling 6.4 times that at 2.56a, which translates to about 10 minutes of actual run time.

    OK Guys and gals, I'm only new to Vaping for about a month or so. I'm having a hard time with carts not being able to refill and last more than 2 fills. I was told about the 808 tank kit by Kitypie and am VERY interested in them but have a few questions.1) How long will the carts last in these. 2) how much are the replacments. 3) can you use VG liquids in them and also Dark liquids. I love the Mocha/Coffee/Hazelnut liquid I made up from E C Blend. But they didn't agree with my Volt Carts. I'll check back after the gym. Thanx

    Question one and two were kind of in my mind too... But I'd also like to know if you can use auto batts on them, or is there an issue with juice getting into them?

    Foxman (guessing sir)-

    1) depends on the juice. High pg gotten as much as 92ml's through it before it had to be replaced, pure vg only 35ml's (on the dual coil).
    2) 2.95 a carto
    3) Yes to both. Higher vg will cause you to have to replace them earlier.

    Nitemist sir you can. Yes there is a chance of a leak issues, the new vtkd "sealed" autos have issues with using them, but the stealth series doesn't. Will have a full report on that tonight.

    Diamond Series are ok then? I thought I saw somewhere that the tanks were made with diamonds in mind?
    TY Morandir, for all the help and a BIG TY to Snowdragon for his initial tank vids - MOST helpful as always!!
