| 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?

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

Let you know if they work any better!

| 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..

| 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 |

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? |

Check it out- Still in mid production  | 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!
