I had the opportunity to purchase 2 Vision Stone 2 tanks before GotVapes ran out of stock. One problem is that the resistance on both units was well below advertised specs. Mine came at 1.5 ohms, not 2.1 to 2.3 ohms as advertised.

This was no problem on my Provari because I just dialed the voltage down to 3.3 and got great vape. However, the tank does not seem to work with 3.7 volt regulated devices such as my epower ego.

On one of my tanks, the stem got loose and I had a huge leakage from the battery connector hole.

My solution was to take some gorilla glue and dab it around the seal in the bottom end cap. I had to wait until the unit was clean and dry to do this but when the glue expanded and dried the leak was 100% cured and the stem is more secure.

Next time I will use crazy glue instead. Both units still work great after three weeks so far so good.

Also, the repair did not impede airflow into the tank.

Great solution since I'm not the brightest repair guy.

I wish Gotvapes would tell us when and if repair kits will ever really be available.

Fortunately, this tank is repairable even if the coil fails
, if you have old CE2 parts laying around to mod it if necessary although a thicker gauge wire may be required than you can extract from a CE2 top coil fluxomizer/clearomizer. Also thicker wicking is needed to do a really good repair.

I hope GotVapes follows though on their commitment to resupply soon. This tank has great potential but durability and supply are important to me as these babies are expensive and you can't just replace the cartomizer for a couple of bucks like you can on a map tank.

I just ordered the Vision Extreme Giant and am excited to try them out. Reviews have been promising.
