Your favorite glass RBA tank?

[WattWick]

(...)It should be mentioned, that the Kayfun, even though its not glass, is incredibly popular. It can be run with the full stainless tank, or the clear makloron(sp?) tank, which may not be 100% impervious to hardcore juices like cinamon types. I can say two things.. 1) I ran plenty of fruity and citrus type juices through the Kayfun clear tank without issue, and 2)I dont think the kayfun is worth the hype. For all the praise it gets for being a flavor monster, I get much better flavor, AND an overall better vape, off a dripping atomizer than I do the Kayfun. Now, I havent tried the other things similar to the Kayfun, like the Aqua, or the Taifun GT, which might be better off. I personally am really interested in the Footoon Aqua, because it seems like it can handle low ohm builds and still feed lots of juice to the wicks, much more efficiently than the Kayfun can.

Not to argue. Just wanted to point out that Makrolon (sp! ) is just a fancy brand name for polycarbonate. "Polycarbonate" tanks can be had for a cent or two. "Makrolon" tanks will cost you a few dollars. They're both ... well... polycarbonate. The difference is found in the marketing department.Some may disagree, but I find it quite a PITA to use full stainless tanks where I can't see my liquid levels, if I've left a sufficient bubble of air, or if I have to do some gauging to figure if I need a refill before leaving the house.My favorite glass RBA tank? The Kraken. By far. Edit: What's up with ECF today? All my posts end up as giant walls of text with no formatting. And I can't bold out portions.

Kanger protanks and evods are not rebuildables.

Even though you can rebuild them.


A rebuildable, is designed from conception to have the user wrap thier own coil using thier own wick and wire.

Says you, in an oxymoronic fashion. I disagree.

^^No need to get all defensive... Why can't anyone have an opinion and why does it have to be oxymoronic? Can't we just agree to disagree in a more kinder fashion... Way too harsh...

Opinions aren't stated as facts. You apparently don't know what an oxymoron is. Hint: a rebuildable non-rebuildable is an oxymoron.

Got to say Kraken and Russian's seem to be the best boys out there by popularity, I got the Steam Turbine clone which I love to bits but next one is hoping that some of the companies follow suit with a brass shielded Kraken.

I was umming and ahhing over the Taifun, Russian and Ithaka and went with the Russian in SS with the optional glass section, I am also waiting for my SteamBoy to turn up but I am considering buying a genuine one with the TiN golden top

Pretty sure the reason Evods/Protanks/Davides, etc... are not classified as "Rebuildables" (even though they are indeed able to be rebuilt) is due to the fact that the coil assemblies were intended to be disposable.

Us vapers, being the crafty bunch that we are, have found ways to rebuild almost anything... Before RBA's came around, I was rebuilding "disposable" stardust clearomizers... After a few months messing with those, the fine folks at Vision started making CE4+ clearo's with a replaceable head. Then came Vivi Nova's, and that blew it up... Now everyone and their momma is making replaceable head clearomizer/glassomizer toppers. And even though the manufacturers call them "replaceable" WE have found ways to rebuild them.

Now, as far as glass tank RBA's go... I've really had no reason to look beyond the AGA-T+... It's served me well... And pretty cheap to boot. Not the easiest build in the world, but once you figure it out, they perform well.

I am going to try rewiring some evods, should be fun

Says you, in an oxymoronic fashion. I disagree.

You are more then welcome to disagree, but the fact remains:

Removing a screw in atomizer head and putting in a fresh one, is not REBUILDING anything.


If you asked Kanger if their atomizer heads were rebuildable, they would say no, and would strongly advise against it. Rebuilding Kanger heads is akin to an Aftermarket Mod, and does not automatically turn the Kanger Protank or Evod into a rebuildable tank.


The whole oxymoron thing, would be more easily defined like this.

Kanger protanks and evods are not rebuildables.

But if you are an enthusiast vapor and want to mod your device, you could rebuild it.

you could do the same to any most of the consumable tank products out there today. Kangers are just popular because they're A)Quality vapes B)Easiest to mod

A Modded Protank is not a rebuildable atomizer.

If your atomizer was shipped to you without any coil or wick, and you are not surprised or disappointed in the slightest degree, it's an rba.

If you received a vivi nova or Evod in the mail without a coil or wick, it would be surprising and disappointing to 99% of the users in my approximations.

You CAN rebuild replaceable coil devices, but they are not a rebuildable the same way something like an igoL is a rebuildable.

Heck, you can rebuild a cartomizer if you want- with a little solder and a lot of patience. But that doesn't make it a rebuildable.

I used too rebulid the mini nova tanks with SS wicks,only problem was after a while the white rubber gaskets would break down and i would have to buy new heads,they are rebuildable,but not like the gennie.

They have glass RSST's on ebay! I just ordered one for 35 bucks. HARD to find on other websites. ebay seller says its authentic smoktech, if its anything less than what I'm expecting, I'll send it back, but shoot, I love my original RSST, just worried about some of the juices I use. Almost more excited to recieve this than my Russian 91% I ordered today too haha

 

[DelboyinDorset]

Aga's seem to be cheap out there in internetland but I don't think you can beat the $13 Kraken off Focalecig for cheapy cheapy I bought one and not expecting it to be a million pounds worth or something special as long as it works
