Hello,

I'm thinking of purchasing one of the Liquinators.....
but, not sure which one.


Are all of them pretty much the same besides the size?

Is one particular size more prone to leaks or have a specific issue?

Should I go with SS or Alu.? (seems like they would be more rigid over time vs. delrin/plastic and keep their tight tolerance to prevent leaking.... )


And
What kind of cartos are included? the drop down menu when on the Alu 3ml page specifies boge 510.. and on the reg./plastic 3ml page there is no details on the carto included.
Did they just forget to mention they are Boge? or will they be some really cheap nasties?



I prefer the 3ml, but, want the size and material least prone to leakage.


thanks

iv got a few of them and from now on im going with the ss version. they all come with boges since thats what they sell or at least that's what i get when i buy my boxes uncut. only time iv had problems is after i damaged the o rings and they just needed replaced. my reason on only going with the ss is i have a provari and they match better and also seem to be tighter on the carto side and since i stick mine in my pocket and will pull it out by the tank often i like that it seems a lot tighter. the black ones seem tight on the tank sleeve its self and some what tight on the carto unlike the ss version. i will say the ss version is held together more by the carto then the sleeve and at first i was worried about that but im now sold on only those after 1000 mile ride and 4 weeks with one. any choose is a good one in my mind but some like tanks it seems and some don't

I personally like the 3 ml ss . I have it on my daily mod so it stands up right most of the time. Might want to think about the extra o-rings for the extra 2.50 $. The reason , is the top cap fits very very tightly with the provided o-rings , however the blue o rings give a nice seal without having to fight it on and off each time. This is my favorite tank and the only one I'll stick in my pocket or leave sitting in my bed if I'm to lazy to get up to put it some where. A very worry free tank.

My favorite are the SS from here....MAP TANKS | Most Angry Industries. They are very tight and no worry about pulling the tank off the carto. If MAP was making these first, I would only own his. Next would be the liquinator. Nhaler tanks break very easily so steer clear of them. Electronicstix are okay but were thrown together too quickly to jump into the market.

thanks guys/ladies....

I went on a hunt for the Ideal 20mL syringes w/o any luck... (referring to post #5, thanks for the link).
Then I remembered that I'd still need cartos since the ones I have have been "rotting" with some cheap juice in the parts shoe box for a while. (meaning I'd still have to wait for the mail to get this project going)----

So for now, I just ordered the 3ml black plastic to start out with. Took a while for my order to go thru... I guess their website is having issues with some browsers. (couldn't add to cart on chrome or firefox.... finally got it to work on IE after about the 10th time)


I'm going to see how I like this vaporessence mod.... if all is good, I plan on trying to make my own to compare. (can't beat $2 if the results are the same)

I bought the Al one I was to cheap to spring for SS and I wanted it to match my provari I've had it for about 3 weeks and no leaks I have the j-tank too it a little smaller but still 3 ml and works great too its a few dollars cheaper
J-TANK
and the syringe tank is really easy to make I have 6 of those they only takes about 5 mins to bang one out

WTH happened to the link in post #5? I can't open it for some reason... working for anybody?


Got my liquinator(black plastic for now)... working well so far for the 6 hours I've had it. Gonna try it for a couple weeks to see how it holds up and to find any nuisances with this type of system. Leaks are the only one I can think of.. maybe weird flavor if I let it sit for a week or so.(coil/burnt flavor "contaminating" liquid in tank?).

Is there a thread with all the different brands of this type of system? fixes? tips? etc.
link?
if not, what are the brands and which one would you trust most in your laptop bag?
(the liquinator has pretty tight tolerances..., but with some force I can see a mess occurring if you are not careful)

so far I know of:
liquinator- vaporescense(sp?)
MAP
J tank
DIY syringe mod.(I tried it, and I can "trust" it for home use... I doubt I'd travel outside of house with it, especially in pocket)

I'm really looking for one that will not leak/break/come apart if in my laptop bag. Any suggestion, tips are appreciated.
