Hi again, ok started using my SB yesterday, I love the amount of vapor I'm getting from it! Not impressed with the taste on a juice that I've been vaping on till I can find a better one! The taste is much more clear with my e go twist and a clearomizer ! Not the complaint thou, I'm having issues with the juice leaking at the bottom of the atty, plus I still hate the drip factor! I can work on the dripping , but the leaking is a major issue for me! Help I miss the flavor, is there a tank I can use?:blush: I'm sorry, I got the e go stuff down, maybe I am just to new for the SB!

Maybe you need a drip shield? I've never been into dripping, so I don't know. I go through nearly 10mls per day, so bigger carto tanks have been working great for me.

I did get a drip shield that was supposed to be compatible with what I ordered, but it goes all the way up to the mid of my drip tip, to me that doesn't look right! What is the best place to order from, and what is the name of your tank's?

If you are in the playing field for carto tanks you have many possibilities but I enjoy and prefer glass(Pyrex) tanks with Boge cartomizers. My tanks are from Phiniac.com or ibtanked.com.

I'll recommend 3 tank manufacturers/vendors that I have used successfully:

View attachment 141680

The Smoketech DCT polyPROpylene is a nice starter tank. Chrome endcaps. Available in a slim 3.5ml and wider 6ml capacity. Tube is safe for cinnamon and citrus flavors that can crack tubes made of polycarbonate plastic. Both sizes take an XL length carto. MyVaporStore sells these tanks in a kit complete with tank, drip tip mouthpiece, and 5 pre-punched cartomizers for $21. You choose either dual coil or single coil cartomizers in your order (I prefer the single coil, but choice in cartomizers is like juices, what one person likes another person will like the other.) Single coil I'd recommend is a 2.0 ohm carto.

Valley View Vapes offers the perfect sized pyrex tank for a Silver Bullet. Option of 4ml (1" wide x 1" tall) and 7ml (1" wide x 1.5" tall) capacities, both clear and frosted tubes, for $13 and $15 respectively.

There's a catch, tho. These come w/o traditional endcaps but with rubber grommets. They work, but assembly and juice filling is a pain because the grommets fit too tightly. If you choose this brand, order the accessory aluminum endcaps for $11 more. The 4ml size tank takes a standard size carto; the 7ml size takes an XL size carto. So prices begin at $25.

The vendor also sells cartomizers in the appropriate size, and offers for a nominal fee to punch and/or test for accurate ohm rating.

OCD tanks at IBTanked is another vendor offering economical and high quality pyrex cartotanks. These come in a 15mm slim (in either standard and XL length) and a 25mm wider diameter (in either standard and XL length). Tubes can be ordered clear, or with an incredible variety of beautiful special pyrex-friendly paints. End caps are available in stainless steel for both the slim and wide tanks, and colorful acrylic caps for the slim tanks only. Prices start as low as $19 ($5 for a slim tube and $14 for the acrylic caps.

The above two pics are of the slim XL length tanks with colored acrylic caps on my BB, Provari, and Silver Bullet.

I concur. Single coil @ 2.0ohm rating is my jam but I'd still roll Pyrex right out of the gate. :)

Bellavap needs a Bella tank (or in this case...an Elegance tank).

Bella Elegance tanks from Hoosier Vapes are fantastic tanks, with easy screw-off top filling. However, they are expensive ($50), especially coming with only polycarbonate plastic tubes. I added a Phiniac pyrex tube to mine (another $50). Yes, the below tank was a $100 tank, but it is my most beautiful and prized tank. Green e-juice is Ecto Plasma from Juicy Vapors, a great lime flavored juice that will crack polycarbonate.

I've ordered most of my pyrex tanks from Valley View Vapes. They come with grommets, carto, and a drip tip. I usually get mine with the caps under "Accessories": Triple V Pyrex Economy Tanks

Baditude's awesome pics just made me order one of the frosted Triple V Pyrex tanks before they discontinue them. :D Otherwise, I've just been getting the clear ones.

I've got a few Phiniac tanks, which are also great on any device, including a Silver Bullet.
