There's really only 2 ways to fill those Pyrex tanks.
1 is to slide a syringe between the carto and the grommet.
The other is to lift up the edge of the grommet and slip the needle between the grommet and the glass.
Some people find this relatively easy with a little practice, others get frustrated by it. That's the main reason I started carrying the aluminum caps for them.
Hopefully you're in the first group.

I find them fairly easy to fill using the syringe method that RayN has outlined above. You just have to make sure that your syringe needle is long enough - say at least 1-2 inches.
Hey, RayN - have you had any issues or complaints about cinnamon juices melting or dissolving the plastic grommets?
I haven't used my tanks with cinnamon juice yet, but it's my favorite and I want to try it. But before I do, I want to make sure I'm not going to kill the grommets.
I guess the aluminum caps wouldn't be hurt by the cinnamon juice, but don't they have some plastic on them too?
And how are the aluminum caps easier to fill?
(This is another reason I want a Pyrex Sidewinder!

Just filled it! No problems at all...
Delicious. The tank looks awesome on my black chrome varitube x
The grommets and o-rings I use are made from food grade materials (silicone for grommets, silicone or EPDM for o-rings.) and I haven't heard of any juices reacting with them, or the polypropylene tanks either. That's the reason I chose to work with those materials.
The aluminum won't react either.
My wife vapes exclusively on Banana and there's never been an issue with the tank or grommets.
It's not that the cinnamon is a harsh chemical or anything, it's just not suitable for use with acrylic or polycarbonate. That's why it breaks down polycarb tanks and can ruin most drip tips.

Hey lettucehead, I use Ray's Triple V Polypro tanks and also the pyrex tanks ALL the time and have seen no evidence of any problem
Agreed. Have 3 and soon 4 with no issues ever. Gogo awesome response time
Sent from the future... Left in the past..
Yeah! Awesome pics and awesome response time too. He sure did answer your callout, xxpiccxx
I pride myself on punctuality!
I was happy to show the goods. The tank is awesome! Will be definitely buying more in the future from Ray!

Thanks for the pics, Gogoplata! It's always fun to see what the Triple V Tanks look like on various mods.
Crud. I dug too deep with the syringe and popped a hole in the bottom grommet. Wasn't leaking at first, now I can see a drop ready to fall. Bad form on me.
Any quick fixes, Ray?

Seriously, Crazy Glue is a wonderful thing.
I do still use the occasional Stardust and with my cinnamon juices they get hairline cracks in them all the time.
I coat the crack with some crazy glue, let dry, and the crack stabilizes and doesn't leak!

Hey Ray! Any suggestions on how to deal with vapor lock? Or how to prevent it?
