don't give up on the idea of a good carto... clearos are so crappy in comparison it's not even fair to put them in the same conversation. THROW OUT YOUR PROTANKS THEY ARE GARBAGE. smok 2.0 ohm cartos work great with a 3.7v mod… full flavor and thick clouds.

I will keep a carto in mind. Maybe order a 15mm IBTanked and use a 1.7 - 2.0 ohm carto on it. Thanks.

I can't figure out why it doesn't work. Mine might be a different version than yours because mine is adjustable so I can raise or lower the firing pin by screwing or unscrewing it. At it's tightest it comes up pretty high over the derlin piece but when it's assembled it doesn't act like it's making contact so I don't know what's not happening. It should be making contact considering how high above the derlin piece it goes when depressed.

Mine has a screw also but it's supposed to be locked down tight so your button won't move around when locking and unlocking it. While the screw is tightened, does the pin still rise above the delrin? Mine didn't so I put a washer. You may also want to check the top adjustable pin to make sure its hitting the atty. Mine didn't hit the Mini Taifun I had on it and didn't fire because of it. I just tightened that top screw in while the atty was in place, put everything together using a flat top 14500 and it worked fine. Also, you need to use a flat top battery in this mod. The button top ones are too big.

The final product... I think. I went back to the cheapo $2.50 tank, gave it a new drip tip, rebuilt the coil to 1.27 ohm. The tank looks clean, sort of like a carto tank with just a post visible from the exterior. It vapes pretty good, nothing like the Chi/KFL next to it but good vapor for the road on short trips and better than my Ego stuff. Best of all, it was cheap. $20 for the clone with magnetic switch and as stated above for the tank. Excellent conversational piece IMO.


What is the tank on the left called? I've been trying to search for it but haven't seen it. Thanks
