I generally don't recommend any tanks under $15 - $20 just because of a lack of quality and manufacturing/materials used/quality control. The cheap Smoketech and Boge tanks fit in this category. Once you get into the $20 - $25 range and above, the quality is pretty consistantly high among all manufacturers.

Also never been a fan of the tanks with a juice fill hole/screw. Takes less than a minute to fill a cartotank if you use a tank accessory tool like a slap-yo-moma tool. If you use a tank that utilizes a fill hole, if you loose the screw the whole tank is useless.

    Love mine! I can put All 6ml. in it and then loosen the screw to balance the pressure out. Carto dies- it's easy to get the remaining juice out.

    I've gotten a bad one and just sent a quick email out and gotten another quickly. Give the supplier a chance.

    Valley Vapes sell nice ones, Mom and Pop vaporshop were my first. Both will bend over backwards for customer service.

    I have 8 of the PRO3s and haven't had a single problem with any of them leaking a drop. I do have one that the fill screw was cross threaded somehow so I have to make sure I get the screw in straight. Vape Dudes likely would have replaced that one for me if it was a big enough deal, but it wasn't really to me. I'd be willing to bet they'd do what they could to make it right for you if you give them a chance.

    I have a variety! I started with the ones from valley vapes which are the same as the Texas tuff tank. I still use them but I've never had any problems with them leaking. Now I use them for juices I don't vape quite as much since I have to break out the needle to fill them. How long have you had it? Could you return it? Otherwise you might be able to buy new grommets, orings & even a new screw. I know valley vapes sells replacements.

    as far as returning it i'd rather not go through that hassle. when i placed my order they shipped out only the juice i ordered with 2 samples but they forgot to include the 3 tanks i ordered. after emailing and calling them my issue was not dealt with. i had to contact them via fb and they finally sent them out. even then they were missing the drip tips on one of the thanks and i contacted them and they said they would ship one out when they were back in stock. its been about a month and a half or so. but yeah ill definitely look around for some tanks in the 20+ range.

    Man this has me a little worried. Although there was some hope in there too. I have one of these on order with some juice. I ordered Monday morning and have yet to receive a ship notice. Not worried so much about that, at least not yet.

    I just filled a j-tank. My first carto tank. So far I'm impressed. Otherwise, I'd recommend an evod or protank. I've had a good experience with an iClear30 too, but it's not as good as either the evod or protank.

    Good luck with your tank problems/search.
