Purchased a new liquinator from vaporessence, should have done that instead of buying 6 $12.00 leakers.
Anybody want my $12.00 6mil junk, I mean tanks?

Flavor. Vapor. Quality. See why Johnson Creek is America's Smoke Juice.

I didn't have any problems with tanks leaking, I just don't like them very much.

Turns out I don't vape as much as I thought I did! (juice stays in 2-3 days...ugh...)

Rose looks like you and I have bad luck...but those that are happy with the will see eventually the poor quality that they are...its just a matter of time after removing caps a few times.

I might try changing the o-rings to a epdm with a different durometer spec. just thinking. Let you know if they work any better!

I fill a regular CE2 approx 3-4 times a day. Or ~6mL. I suppose the tank would work for me but I don't like the flavor.

Why can't you use a CE2 in a tank?

stormy has CE2 tanks I think..
Man..all these problems with the ST tanks and I havent had any issues other then making the holes too big in cartos causing the leaking myself...
some of the tanks are a little tighter then others but Ive been using the first one for over a month with no problems at all...I guess you could damage the o rings if you werent careful but I dont really see the issues myself..just perplexes me why everybody is having problems when Im usually the one with bad luck..

The swamplady has about a week on a 6.5ml plastic tank, and is on her second rejuvenator. No leaks, and she likes it (SHhhhhhhh )

Yea went to a place and got new seals but found out when I got home that the 0-rings are metric so the cross section was to thick. Found a place that sells metric o-rings...will try with them tomorrow. Take care Bro. Teker

I have noticed that o-rings can get damaged by pushing the open end of the carto through them, I think the open ends edges can be a little sharp. So now I either make sure I push it in very straight or I push in the threaded side first.

Also as far as holes, I punch 3 holes 1.5 turns in after the saddel valve breaks through. Stays nice and wet, and dosen't go too deep as to damage the inner tube.

On a side note I'm getting a new Varivapes.com tank made for me. I designed this one. I wanted it to look like a pineapple, for my favorite juice Pineapple from ivape.net

Check it out- Still in mid production

SWEET!
Where do you get your glass tanks, I need to try one of those, thanks for the post.

I thunk you are correct about which end to push through the tanks, inspected mine and they were a little messed up. Got to get some new ones which today I found out they are metric size o-rings. I found a local place here in Houston to get them.

Nice pineapple -in the making!-

I have used the ST tank from ccv and want to order more- no problems here, and hits the best of all my stuff (tanks and cartos)! I've dropped it many times in the past 3 weeks with no problems or leaks- I've only filled it 3 times, so who knows how long it will last?

Basically, whoever has the best price or a sale at the time. I was getting them from madvapes, but he is out of stock a lot on the 510 models, Stormy has some, other than that I can't remember...

O rings do get damaged if you push stuff through them. I learned that at 18 years of age. Unfortunately it was in a back seat! Just kidding. I like your tank!
