I have a kayfun, ok four and they are cool and all. I can only vape alice in vapeland juices in them though.

I love my carto tanks. Ibtanks are ok. I am having issues though. I cant get the orings off that need to be replaced
And the color on the caps chip off.

For the price of the caps they shouldn't chip.

My worse one i noticed it the color missing on the caps three days after i started using it. And since im funny i dont even use it because of it.
But i use my other three ibtanks all the time. But now im on a search for a new brand.

Kali, you are correct. The anodized aluminum caps should not chip, especially after only 3 days use. Did you contact IBTanked about this? Or contact OCD in the IBTanked supplier forum?

Why are you needing to change the o-rings so soon? Are you using the tank accessory tool? This protects the o-rings from wear & tear. I have owned over 20 cartotanks over the last 2 years and have NEVER had to change an o-ring.

    The orings were bad when i got it. The tank just spins.
    Now my other three ibtanks i have original orings.

    I have discussed this with ocd briefly.but not the color chipson the cap.

    And ya know, i loved my ibtanks till the last one i bought. But the color coming off really put a bad taste in my mouth. Not literally ofcoarse.

    And the spinning and leaking. Again just the one tank, but its just a pita to deal with.

    Every few days i try to get the orings off, but im soo worried about messing up the end caps.
    I thought about asking if i could mail it in to be refurbished, paint touched up and orings changed.

    You know sitting here typing this, my older tanks have been drop kicked basically, on concrete, tile, thrown against a wall, on accident ofcoarse and they look perfect.

    Maybe ill hop over to chit chat with ocd and work something out. I am on the hunt for two more tanks, and i have bought 5 from him.

    Vape Pluid in one for a few weeks non stop... It'll turn them into jello! I use one strictly for Pluid cause I'm addicted to the stuff, but I swear I have to swap out every oring and rubber washer in it about once a week. Seriously! You figure that would be a sign... Nope! Still vaping away!
