Not going to over-analyze it - lol. Everyone has different likes and needs. The good part is when it comes to devices in this class it usually doesn't cost more than what you used to pay for a pack of smokes to try something different.

Next try a carto tank maybe? You can get a low end one for less than $10.00 USD. Heck I was at, of all places, ProVape and they have some basic carto tanks in their clearance section for only $3.00. It's just an example: You can spend a lot more on a carto tank, but for the sake of trying the technology out you don't need to.

Congrats OP! Glad you found better taste. Some do say that plastic either mutes, or imparts a plasticy taste to juices. Some even go so far as to transfer their juice from plastic bottles into glass.

I'm not going to start suggesting a slew of other equipment. You'll get a ton of suggestions I'm sure. Rather, I'm going to suggest something very simple you can do to improve the Protank 2's even more. Try removing the silica wicks and replace them with cotton, rather then throw a burnt coil out. Often, when you get a burnt taste, its the wicking and not the coils themselves. You will get more life from the coils this way, plus many prefer the taste they get from cotton then from silica. It's often a purer taste with cotton, while silica can mute flavors for some. Protank 2 coils are great, as they give you a ton of options. You can even replace the heating coil with kanthal if you're up to that some day.

Congrats!
Soon you'll be ready for a kayfun and your poor PT2 will be collecting dust like mine is... :facepalm:

I also got a kayfun and a magneto , just waiting for batteries,kick,ohm meter and charger

The protank is meant for my out and about setup , after all I don't want to walk around with a big a** magneto+kayfun setup

I still have a protank 1 for back up on my out and about set up. I think one of our tendencies as vapers is to think we always need the Ferrari when sometimes the basic Miata is better for the trip we are going on and we only remember what fun it is to drive when we take it out every once in a while.
