I started out using CE4s with an EGO battery. Then I went for the CE5 wickless which worked a little better. Shortly thereafter I purchased rebuildable CE5s. The recent quality of these tanks became awful in my opinion and they began to frequently arrive with manufacturer's defects-namely, mishapen gaskets. And most of you know by now that without a properly shaped gasket, you're screwed! So about a month ago, I took the Kanger T3 plunge! I have to say that Kanger provides the BEST bottom coil tank in my experience this far. It's very low resistance so you get a better flavor and MAD vapor! Easy to fill. Easy to clean. Easy to reuse. Plus-they're rebuildable! If you're searching to an alternative to those CE4s or 5s? Give the Kanger T3s a try! I use the clear ones-and in addition, they can hold 2.4mL of juice as opposed to only 1.6. Happy vaping!!
 
carto tank fan here...started with all the clearos etc but then tried a carto a few months back and loved it...the taste,vapour,throat hit, everything...so after a few months with lr boges and kangers in some nice tanks i went for the divers by atmistique and love them...got 3 v1's and got a v2 to play with :)...work brilliantly in scuba tanks but also in trap tanks and wee boaby for the one tank cracker juice i use :)

I prefer the Vision Vivi-Nova, the top coil gives me a warmer vape, the coils are very easy to re-build, they don't leak - gurgle, and hold 3.5mL of juice. The trick is to cut the wicks short enough so the coil head is sitting on top like an old school 510 atty without the steel tube around it. Tipping myPV to take a drag is more than enough to wet the wicks, and the results are much like dripping on a 510 or 901 atty.....YMMV...:)

Smok 2.0 ohm single coil XL carto I punch myself and IBTanked XL 22mm carto tank. It works, develops clouds of dense vapor and requires no attention other than refilling once day. My cartos are good for 20ml at least before a change out. Oh yeah, it never leaks.

If we're talking Tanks/Cartos I recently purchased a J-tank with Boge 3 ohm cartos. Worked great, all nice & tight no leaking, was using with Vista Vapors Green Apple, that ran out so I did some DIY using TFA green apple, after about 25 min I noticed my tank was cracked, about another 20 min & i saw another crack. Still not leaking but I'm sure it will fall apart when i disassemble it. Will have to order the Delrin sleeve to hold up to the harsh juices. Was looking for another tank & found The AGA+ AGR+ Locking Cartomizer Pyrex Tank - AltSmoke
Seems to be an excellent tank & it's glass so it'll hold up to the harsh juices & the price won't break the bank, will be ordering a couple of these.

NONE of the devices you listed here are Cartomizers. What you have listed are Clearomizers.

Your terminology will cause confusion in the replies you get here.

As for my prefered clearo, I like the Aspire Bottom Dual Coil clearos.

these are nice cheap glass tanks as stated but be warned you HAVE to fill using the fill hole as the cart cant pass through the bottom...so most bottles struggle fit such a small fill hole...that was my experience anyway :(

you fill with syringe or those syringe tip bottles, the air has to escape the tank when filling otherwise you flood the carto.:vapor:

Thank you so much. I've been waiting to hear these exact answers. It's what I'll go with on my next purchase.

Really useful stuff. Thank you.
