Pyrex RSST, how do you like it so far?

[Vaslovik]

I'm thinking about ordering one of these, after months of using the original, which I'm pretty happy with, but I'd like that clear glass. So how has it worked out for those who have them? Do you like it? Is it as nice as the original? Any problems?

Ive had one for a couple months now and it works great. The glass tank does break kinda easily, had it fall from my breast pocket onto gravel and crack it. Thankfully replacement tanks are only $6 on venerable. One minor issue is if you have someone twist the topcap to take it off in a clockwise way they can sometimes spin the glass tank and twist the rubber grommit thing that covers the entire bottom of the tank and make it leak. Its a really easy fix, Ive had it happen twice with different people. Otherwise the only issues it has is the same as the normal rsst, namely the spring post is kinda annoying to build with and the topcaps hole needs drilling bad.

I've only had my Pyrex RSST for a couple weeks, but I love it. I actually got it to replace my PT2 as my glass tank for the tank cracking juices I enjoy. My first build was using PBusardo's video and came out fine. Lots of flavor using a 50/50 Freckled Lemonade from MBV. Then I saw Rip Tripper's video where he used the hollow wick and I decided to break it down and build the hollow wick. It also works great! The ss mesh gives the best flavor I've had, even compared to my KFL+.

The first thing I did was drill my airhole to 6/64. I think this is a necessary step as the draw was a bit tight with the stock 1mm hole.

I built mine's to 1.6 ohm to use on the Provari.

One thing my B&M told me about the rsst was to be really careful with the tank. It does chip fairly easily and if it does chip, it will need to be replaced as it will leak.
