igetcha69 uploaded a review of a tank for the CE2 called the MCTank, I am trying to fight the urge but I already contacted the distributor in Italy. It looks awesome and great on the ProVari he was using it on for the review. Check out his channel. By my estimate it will run around $45 with shipping and currently he is taking Paypal. I really want one but I'm trying to see if I can squeeze it in to my budget right now.



I hope this is ok to link to the video, if not please delete.

I wish cartos didn't taste so awful to me. His tanks are truly beautiful.

There's a long 510 Atty nearly same length as the xxl-cartos Case i get a Lava I'll try do drill a little hole in with the Dremel and see what happens. I also prefer the atty taste.

Where do you get these atties? I have already perfected the atty tank before using a VPX mini tank, so if there are atties like that I can make them work. For the record, the hole in the side of the atty needs to be TINY, like 1/40th of an inch. Surface tension keeps the joose from flowing freely into the atomizer, but the joose get's pulled into the hole when you draw on it.

This is all too much info for me and I can't tell what I want, besides what looks the coolest.

What is the most efficient carto tank, and most efficent "ce2" type tank? Are these really worth buying over dripping a 306?

On a side note, is a drip shield or 306dca really more enjoyable vape than a plain 306 with cannon?

I have a 306DCA and I LOVE it! WAY better than normal. I get the same flavor, but I can drip like 10 drips at a time and vape for 20 minutes without dripping LOL. The only thing I don't like is that I don't have any 2.5ohm 306's. I'm not a fan of low resistance vaping.

As far as the tanks, it depends on how you define "efficiency". Despite what all these vendors want you to believe, ALL the carto tanks are exactly the same, and all the CE2 tanks are exactly the same. The difference is ONLY in the looks, and how tight it holds the carto/CE2. Some people prefer a snug fit, others want to have to use a tool to put them in.

So it doesn't flood when you put that many drops in? And does it matter what the ohms is for the atty? They should all fit, right? That sounds amazing I might buy one, just want to make sure what it is first.

The DCA is sealed and acts like a drip well that refeeds excess joose to the atomizer. It does gurgle when you drip that much, because of airflow, but it doesn't flood. I can tell it's not flooding because flavor and vapor production are amazing. The DCA fits MA306, Cisco, and Joye, and I'm not sure about others. The regular Ikenvape 306 is just a hair thinner, and is too loose. It doesn't matter what ohm they are. It comes with the MA306, which only comes as 1.5ohm.

i have never been convinced that a carto is as good a vape as dripping.
the idea of tanks is that it will optimize the carto experience, keeping it sufficiently wet (not flooded) and lasts long.
so far i've only used a dual coil in a tank and it is better than just the plain carto, but until i try a reg Boge carto i won't know if it's as good as dripping... i have my doubts but will see eventually.

any news on i06 dca?

No news, just that its possibly in the works, as is the cherry vapes io6 drip tip which is supposedly 'cannon' like. I'm using an io6 right now and its great, but the drip tips just destroy the whole experience. Dry spots, flooding, leaking, loose fits. Its a shame the best atomizer in the world has to wait a couple weeks for its drip tip counterpart. It will be worth the wait though.

Most any carto tank should work okay, so long as you give it time to saturate the filler before you begin vaping on it. Higher VG will take longer to saturate.

Cartos will always mute flavor a little bit. That's the sacrifice people make by using cartos, but if you are having trouble tasting them at all there is something else at play. Does it taste burnt at all?
Can anyone reccomend a tank or carto that works well with thick juices? I use a lot of thick juices and having trouble tasting them. Everything I try seams to suck!!

I just ordered a big daddy tank which comes with a lr carto. Hope it works because thething will be soaked in juice. Right???
