Tipping an RBA...

[NealBJr]

Hiyas... I have both a Nimbus+mech and a Vamo+Aga-T2 and all is sort of fine. However, I want to find a good replacement for the AGA, since, like all gennys, It's non tipable. I vape a known tank cracker, quite often, so I'm dead set on getting something with Pyrex instead of plastic. ... So, my question is, is there a pyrex tank RBA system that you can tip on it's side and not have to worry aobut juice leaking? I am thinking the Aquos has no Pyrex, Same with the Russian 91. Any suggestion for a good tippable single coil atomizer wtih pyrex? (not that I'm being specific)

There are glass tanks slowly becoming available for the kayfun range, problem is they all cost about half as much as the genuine atty itself, and in the case of the clones more than the atty itself.

You could always go a slightly different route, and throw a killer or a diver in a carto-tank like an IBtanked or the newer Pyrex ARG. You still get rebuildable performance in a carto-tank package. Depending on your setup it might actually hold a bit more juice and be more compact compared to the more typical offerings.

What about the new RSST? I don't have the Pyrex version yet but I can lay mine on its side and not have leaking issues (cotton wick and I use the plug).

I think with any Genesis style it's just going to come down to the build, in other words if you can get an RSST leak-free you should be able to use those same principals to make other devices leak free assuming the deck works with your setup and what not.

I've never been able to get any genny device leak free regardless of whether I was using mesh, silica, cable, combinations of those, ceramic wicks, cotton, with plugs, without plugs, completely filling the wickhole, leaving room around the wick, etc etc etc, they have always leaked, and I'm not alone unfortunately I suspect the OP wants a more fool proof device, something specifically designed not to leak, instead of relying on tricky setups.

My Russian came with a Stainless Steel tank section, making it an indestructible tank tank. It also some with the plastic section, but most of my juices have cinnamon in them and crak the plastic tanks in no time at all. I don't like glass because it breaks. Seeing ones juice is over rated IMO, one can tell when a tank is getting low just buy the flavor of the vape. I won't buy a tank that doesn't offer a full metal jacket, just not worth the breakage or crakage risks.

The Flash-e-Vapor V2 is a great choice, tis me fav of all rba's to date, also the Aqua is a top performer, and of course the Russian/Kayfun selections, all SS tank rba's, that are tip able, and usually leak free. The flashi has never leaked on me, easy to build and fill, fantastic flavor and vape.

Unfortunately, it is a slight issue with me. I can understand if you use one single flavor, You can tell by the flavor. But, I never stick with just one flavor in a tank. I am constantly mixing compatible juices in the same tank to keep the pallet ever changing. I.E. I put caramel in with a Coffee flavor, then I mix it up with a bit of creme flavor. Most of the time I use Guava with banana strawberry to create a fruity mix. I use the Pyrex glass on the aga to gague when to add a different flavor, and the flavor is ever changing. with a SS option, that's not easily done, and if I add juice when it's too low, the new flavor will over power any others. I have had only one glass tank break, and it wasn't my fault, I'm usually very easy going with my mods, and don't put them through much abuse, so glass is not an issue with me, but a sort of requirement.

I already have the Aqua, but no pyrex is an issue for me.

I guess I should have stated earlier, I am not necessarily looking for a fool proof genesis system, They will almost always leak no matter what. With Genesis systems, the more leak proof you make it, the less juice flow you get. And even if you choke it down very hard, it will still leak eventually. I was looking into an alternative to the Genesis that uses a glass tank option.

The Aqua seems to be a good option, but no glass and it's dual coil. I don't want a dual coil as my main PV. I am not a cloud chaser and prefer a medium level of vape with low overhead and the ability to coil my wick/wire to match my vaping preference. Cartomizers were too limiting, and I usually burned them out when I'd go on a chain vape binge.

I know this was suggested earlier, but there wasn't a link for it... Smoktech Pyrex RSST Rebuildable RBA w/ Drip Tip

The pressure feed systems (KFL, etc) are only leak proof until you subject them to drastic temperature changes. Depending on where you live, they may not be very useful for winter vaping.
