Tanks....personal preferences and bad experiences

[*Daddio*]

Hello everyone,
I'd like to get some views on different brands of tanks that everyone likes and dislikes so I have a better chance of making the right decision on the first tank that I buy.

I've collected a few different ones so far, but I guess it would depend on how much juice you're using, what cartos you like and how much you want to spend?

There are some relatively inexpensive ones, the chibi and acorn from Parkes has had good reviews. parkesvaping.com

Cartomator from Nhaler is also a nice one, a little pricier but comes in delrin & stainless and 2 different sizes.

Jonboy Lava tank is unique and another pricier one, you have to wait for him to post a sale nite in the forum and has the drip tip built into the top.

There is also the other option which is diy with a syringe mod tank, there are several threads here you can view and video references for making.

Ultimately I run boge cartos in mine, I started with the LR and have dropped back to the SR and drill/slot my own.

What tanks you like are going to depend on your personal preferences.

Do you like cartomizers? Clearomizers?

I prefer the Clearo tanks. I love my Arry tank.
I have 2 acorn tanks from parkes as well, I have mixed feelings about them, the small one doesn't hold much, but is reliable, & I use it as a back-up. But the larger one has a problem with the bottom rubber piece popping off randomly with the slightest bump.
Clearo tanks also have no filler, and you don't have the issues of punching or cutting cartomizers, & I had lots of leaking and dry hits with the pre-punched cartos in my liquinator. I'm not a fan of cartomizers in general, but having that tank just sealed the deal on me never buying another carto tank.

Also some liquids can cause poly tubes to crack, so you have to watch out for that. If you have a juice that will crack a tank, you may want to look into the stainless or pyrex tubes that some tanks offer.

I have 3 different tanks.

A) Liquinator BFT 8.5ML Black Delrin caps
B) DCT MAP 5ML Black Delrin cap
C) BigDaddyVapor 5ML Stainless Steel caps

I use the BDV one mostly. I made a stainless steel sleeve to go over the poly tube with a window , so I can see the nicquid level. BigDaddyVapor offers a stainless tube in for substitution of poly for those certain nicquids that cause the clear poly to crack. I don't use any of those nicquids. The sleeve is just to help protect the nic from UV rays and to give it a more solid appearance.

Another one to consider is the M1A1 buzz tank @ Notcigs. Has a screw in the side of the tank so no need to slide the carto or remove caps to fill.

I've been using the EZ Tank for about a month now, and have not had any problems. It was very reasonably priced and easy to use.

I just got my first tank in the Smoktech 6ml Tank Dual Coil Cartomizer it is my first tank but i am loving it! Definately my new fave vaping friend

Usually the tank is not as so important as the atomiser and the interior structure of the atomiser,such as some tanks has the good guide oil rope and Nickel Net,the nickel net is also important.if only of the resistance wire, than the liquid can't fully absorbed by the nickel net, so surely won't creates huge vapor and work well.and still many factors,this is just a sample for your reference.

Atomizer tanks and cartomizer tanks are completly different animals.
