Tank Labeling!

[Steve0311]

Hi fellow Halo fans. I'm pretty much brand new to vaping and I started off with a G6 starter and a Triton starter. Both of these have their place (Triton at home relaxing, G6 for convenient pocketing at work and inconspicuous vaping in the bathroom).

I'm sure that this question has popped up before, but I didn't have much success doing a forum search, so I decided to start a new thread. I now have 6 Halo Triton Tanks and 4 Mini Tanks in circulation, and I'm running into an issue of not knowing what liquid is in each tank. I'm getting decent at memorizing how dark/light a certain liquid is, but my default method is to vape everything and give myself nicotine poisoning in order to sort these things out. I'm lightheaded right now from just doing it so I can sort my flavors for work tomorrow. There's no reason for me to take huge pulls and inhale just to test, but I do it anyway because I'm very smart. I can only imagine when I start using more flavors and tanks.

What methods do you folks use to label your tanks? How do you tell the difference?

Thanks!

I am still new, so right now I have a dedicated cupboard where I have a few ice cube trays marked.

I know ... I should step that up a notch

I am not familiar with the devices you are using, so I am gonna ask some questions and give some advice which may be irrelevant.

Do these different tanks all look exactly the same? Or are they different colors?
Can you replace the drip tips with standard 510 drip tips?

If there is the possibility of using different color tanks or drip tips, that would be a to tell them apart.

I use the notes app on my phone to list what color goes why which flavor.

You could also use small pieces of colored tape , or use clear tape and write an abbreviation of the flavor with a sharpie. I do this with small clear juice bottles i filled from larger bottles.

Get creative. The answer is there.

A piece of painter's tape and a Sharpie works for me. I also note the last cleaning date and coil assembly info.

I fill a few, then I grab a couple, and go.
Later, I vape something, and it's like a little surprise in my day --- "ooh! I got Voodoo!".

Tank beads (from AIV):

I used to label my Halo tanks with stick on labels. As I have come to know Halo juice, though, I can tell by color and smell which flavor is which, without having to test it out.

Just kidding

I like the tank beads or the tank bling stuff...like others said...I got my favorites and just know what they smell/taste like

 

[wheezal]

the tank beads are a great idea.

otherwise in my organizer i put the tank next to the liquid thats in it. i dont have as much shuffling to do so its not as big of a deal.

I haven't tried it yet but I was considering masking tape and a sharpie. I like the tank beads too but where do you find them?

My girl just told me she picked up some wine glass charms for her tanks. I don't know if i could snip the wire and insert it into the two bottom holes of the tank without killing airflow but she asked me to try. If it works, it works.

Steve, another option is to get a pack of small, multi-colored hair tie's, (or rubber bands) then use a different color on each of your tanks. You'd just need to do a double/triple/quadruple/etcetera twist, so they'd fit and stay on just like using them for pony tails.

PM Please

But the tank beads are a good idea, I'll run that by the owners and see if we can't come up with our own version!

Not a bad idea at all! If I only rotate in the range of 5-10 tanks I could definitely keep track of that, or perhaps a sticky note listing which flavors for which color band when it gets to be too much.

Thanks everyone for the responses, lots of good ideas here. I also like the idea of tank beads/wine glass charms. I wonder if I can get different drop tips for the Halo tank like Bernie suggested. This is creative stuff.

Get some stickers from the dollar store
Or i like the tank bead idea
You can get blank yardsale labels, colored circles you can write on this is the one im going to do.
Ive been reasearching this too.
Too many tanks and carts the same color lol.

I just use different color tanks. I use a grape flavor, cherry cigar, and unflavored...so it's blue, red, and clear.

I tried the diff colored tanks, but its hard to tell the color with a dark juice in it. I too use the tape and sharpie method. I have scotch tape type of dispenser that has blue tape in it and you can write on this tape
and it won't rub off. I use a thin tipped sharpie and write 1,2,3,4.... On the tank. That way the piece of tape can be small instead of writing the flavor name.

Then by my vape station area, I keep a hard covered note book and write all the info re: that tank like this:

1) Voodoo- and then I write if its a new tank, ohms, when I filled it
2.) Prime-same

And so on. I usually update my notebook every Sunday..I either switch out flavors, top off a tank or what have you but I keep record so I know which tanks i use on my VV by looking at the ohms or which tanks are due for cleaning or throwing out.

i use stickers like that for psychological validation. so its even better to have it on a tank! now my feels are good!
