Thinking of trying one out. Currently use the Super T feeder. Would like a more streamlined option.

Want to be able to use my own attys, no cartos, if possible.

Either way, your suggestions on the currently available best pre-made tank.

Thanks, later!

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

I have a tank, well several.. As far as atty tanks, i would like to eventually make one, due to the fact that i see a atty tank being much cheaper in the long run, i mean long long run.. At this time i dont have a working atty tank so.. As far as carto currently i hate smoke tech tanks, there too small, and leaky, and crack prone, not the tube but the plastic base.. so those are out imo.. I have had nothing but sucess with the liquidnator from vaporessence, i cant put it down, and it rocks for me.. Also the glass tanks from notcigs are not bad, but dont hold the carto down like the liquidnator.


Also, now that i am in a week short of 16 months, just wanted to send a thank you to you sir, for the family i have gained here..

Im glad you posted this. I was just thinking today about making a post for this same question. There have been 5 different tanks that I have been looking at for the past week trying to decide, I actually settled on and am about to buy the Liquinator as I type this. Coincidence?

I've never tried an atty tank, but I find it hard to believe you can beat the flavor and vape of a good carto tank. My mod tank is a liquinator. I have both the delrin and stainless models in 3ml. Standard 2.4-3.0 ohm cartos on my SB and Lavatube. They're the same diameter as the lavatube.

http://vaporescence.com/shop/ego-e-c...ategory_id=134

For my egos, I use the dual coil smok tech tanks with the tank adapters from Madvapes.

http://www.madvapes.com/Dual-Coil-51...ml_p_3446.html

http://www.madvapes.com/eGo-Chrome-C...er_p_3438.html

I enlarge the holes on the smoke tech cartos with a 1/4" saddle tap.

I know people have been having trouble with them but Ive been real happy with the smoke tech tanks especially the 3 ml ones. To me under ten bucks for one tank is more like what they are actually worth and if one cracks...so what...though none have leaked or cracked in a few months so far (at least any thats the tanks fault). Could be luck of the draw but there have been some differences from the first ones and ones I got later...there must be some revisions over time. Im not fooled by the 3ml designation, thats just the exterior volume, add back in the carto and its at least one or so more then that. I pretty much use them on all devices switching around with the smoke tech DCC's 1.5 ohm on the Ipro and 1.7 single coil XL smoke tech cartos on other stuff. Punching my own regular cartos with a drywall screw and turning the carto to the thickest filler side to punch the hole works very well but I do use a high VG % of 90 and up. Im averaging about 2-3 weeks per carto using 2 devices in rotation daily. Im glad to be rid of the frequent dripping through out the day and its much more consistent.
As far as atty tanks go I dont know of any....cant really picture that working right without the filler to modulate the flow automatically and control it when not in the vertical position. I suppose you could create a mod something like the super T model that surrounds the center section like a regular tank but not sure how you would control the dripping easily..I do remember seeing a mod that used a meter controlled pump but I dont even know if that ever took off or is still even made any more.

They don't have the flange do they? Do they leak any?

Like Tek, have a liquinator from VaporEssence. Use it on my pass-through. 6 months on its side on my desk. No leaks, no hassles. Have changed the carto five times. Bought 4 spares, but they clean up great so I've still got 2 unused ones. The price is a little stiff, but filling is fairly easy and no cracks or leaks. Drops on the floor on a regular basis.

I dont use the specific tank cartos for either..I just use the regular ones and punch those as they cost less and I use thicker juices anyway.
As far as leaking goes I have had issues with cartos leaking..never the tank. Thats a hole size issue and making sure you pay attention to which side of the carto you punch and the viscosity of the juice IMO..
