one last try on clearimizers can you talk me out of this one?

[JoeDerty]

Ok so i just dipped into my Provari fund and got a MVP2 because i found a great deal and my Ego C Twist wont last a whole day. Anyways im getting tired of clearimizers just not having good luck so far. The one ive had the best luck with is the Kanger T3 but you cant let it get kinda low or it leaks. It sounds like the [FONT=Arial, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif]Aspire Vivi [/FONT]Nova [FONT=Arial, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif]BDC tank's [/FONT][FONT=Arial, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif]are looking [/FONT][FONT=Arial, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif]promising anyone have any pro and cons? do you know something better? has anyone seen a 8 pack of them?

[/FONT][FONT=Arial, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif] im sorry i know there is a tank thread going right now.[/FONT][h=1][/h]

After trying my first cartotank, I'll only go back to clearo's if I have to. And when I say clearomizer, the bare minimum would be a Vivi Nova or iClear.

 

[ScandaLeX]

After trying clearos and cartos I don't want either one. All have their +/-.
I prefer RBAs now.
On that note, I'm not going to try to talk you in/out of anything.
Only you know what you want to do and what you want to spend your money on.

If you try the Aspire and it doesn't meet your needs, try something else.

how much liquid fits in a carto i havent used one in 3 years im sure they have changed

 

[Iffy]

The Aspire BDC clearos and tanks are the only ones that I vape besides my faithful DC carto tanks!

I do hope that the replacement heads prices drop a bit in that they don't last as long as my cartos. Nonetheless, the ABDCs have been the best of clearos I tried (and that's quite a spectrum of 'em).

and what carto do you like the most

Tried cartotank...the Vivi Nova, then another cartotank by Smok. I hated them.
I started with the CE4, and now vape with an EVOD clearomizer and love it. My new CE5 is for emergencies.
I'm a clearomizer 4 life guy.

I haven't had any issues with my Protank 2.

 

[Sugar_and_Spice]

How about a protank II or protank II mini? Great tanks and so easy too.

 

[JoeDerty]

i have seen good reviews on the Pro Tank 2 im waiting to see how the 3rd turns out because i saw some bad reviews earlier today on here

After trying almost every delivery device imaginable, I've always gone back to tried and true cartomizer tanks (carto tanks). Sure, they have a tiny learning curve and require a teensy weensy bit of practice to get priming the carto down, but after that everything is easy-peasy.

If you're simply curious and want to try out the Aspire, I say go for it. But if it, too, fails to live up to your expectations, the good ol' carto tanks will still be there for you to master next.

PM Baditude or reference his blogs for some excellent info on carto tanks.

I personally prefer IBTanked pyrex glass tanks and Smoktech 2.0 ohm single-coil single-hole punched DCT replacement cartos. They seem to have a "looser" wrapping of the polyfill as opposed to Boges or Ikenvapes (Baditude's favorites). My favorite juice is Boba's Bounty, and it is pretty thick, and it tends to wick better inside a Smoktech carto.

I LOVE the iClear 16s. Just love them. They last forever for me. I do think they use more juice, but I feel as though I get more flavor. I've not had one single leak and they fill easily. I have 6 of them locked and loaded at the moment and nary a complaint.
I've used evods, iClear 30, CE4, CE (something) wickless, and mini protankII.
Good luck in your quest.
(also I hated my evods till I stuck them on an MVP2. and love them but only on that batter)

Having been through quite a few CE4's - which aren't exactly the worst things ever - this cartotank has been a bit of a revelation. I *really* liked the iClear 30 that came with my MVP V2 but it was inconsistent. One hit was godly, the next would be gurgly. When it's on, it has flavor for days (and for me, flavor > vapor). Anyway, I digress. I picked up a Smok Artemas carto tank, it holds a little over 3ml so it has plenty of capacity for me. I am using Boge laser-slotted cartos in it, these guys:

Boge 510 XL LR Stainless (Laser Slotted) - (1 box)

Truly a great vape, it always seems to taste the same and that taste is more flavorful than clearo wicks, IMO. Now, don't get me wrong, a clearo is not a clearo is not a clearo. I am simply comparing this setup to a CE4 (wickless, for what it's worth), Vivi Novas, and iClear 30s. I unwittingly got some clone EVODs and they were not good but I'm not comparing the cartotank to a true EVOD.

I ordered 3 more carto tanks (SMOK Artemas for what its worth) last night. I have a few Vivi Novas kicking around as well until I get a dripping atomizer so I can switch back and forth on flavors when I want.

I use 3hole single coil 3ohm smoktech cartomizers from smoktek.com

DCT/xl/45mm/mega cartos hold about 1.2mL properly primed.

I only use cartomizers and RBAs. Clearos just aren't for me.

i used one 3 years ago when i got my first ecig it was a Super Ego it worked good i just dont know anything about them now things have changed.

 

[Rocketpunk]

Oooooh, man, a LOT has changed in 3 years!

 

[FringeChief68]

I seen some people argue over what a iClear 30s is and if it's a clearomizer or not.
But anyways Innokin has it listed as a clearomizer so I will go with that.

I got a iClear 30s with my VTR and I really am liking it.

Still has 16 wicks like the iClear 30 but they inside that tube like thing. I don't think its re-buildable.
Gives me a big smooth hit.

 

[JoeDerty]

I ordered a MPV2 this morning so im hoping thats the clearo that will come with it! i just ordered the aspire so if it doesnt workout for me ill get a carto next!

 

[JoeDerty]

Oooooh, man, a LOT has changed in 3 years!

ok well i have a aspire on the way if it doesnt work out the carto will be next! Boba's is my daily vape im allergic to PG so thats great to know they work good with VG!!! When ever you get a chance will you post a link to your top 2 carto's ill bookmark them so i dont forget. id like to get a few anyways just to see what i think!

I liked the iClear 30, tried the iClear 30S the other day, it was nice. Got an Aspire BDC Vivi Nova Pyrex that I like even more though. Don't own any RBAs yet to compare to, but as far as clearomizers go, the Aspire BDC with the pyrex tank is the best yet.
