Kanger ProTank (Pyrex Glass)

[CCC]

If you need to seal air holes you can rub a candle over the holes, the wax does a good job and looks neat.

Truthwolf I don't think you got hung too badly if you're talking about a retail outlet. That's a good sized battery so it should last a reasonably long time. How is the juice?

[wa3zrm]

I really hope the price of Aroma comes down a bit, and they offer bigger size bottles, because if that happens, I will vape Aroma/Red Tail exclusively.

But one other point, I have not tried a lot of the other brands that are out there, so there very well may be quality ejuice out there.

Aroma is #1
There are a few vendors that have NET ejuices... check out:

and

They are not as good as WTA, but IMO they satisfy better than just regular nic ejuices.

YEs, that is true Darwin.. it is actually a quite powerful vape compared to the cannister one's I tried from friends.

I am going to go back tomorrow and see what other e-juice they carry and or order one of the recommendations you guys offered.

Maybe a blueberry or clove.

TW I take it that, although you state that the freebie juice you got with the kit was "powerful", it was not entirely to your liking. Not to worry. Let it sit for a week or two, it's called "steeping", and it might affect you quite differently. In the vape world if one orders a juice made only when ordered then steeping is frequently recommended, required even, for the flavors to meld and settle in. If it's a pre-made stock juice, whether sitting on a rack at a retailer, or grabbed off a shelf by an online vendor, then steeping is usually not necessary.

With online product it's usually easy to tell the difference because the vendor will state that juice is prepared only after it is ordered and it can be several days before it is shipped. Also freshly made juices are almost always considerably more expensive than off the shelf items. Most people sample the juice when first received, the term is "out of the bottle", and if it is a bit funky then steeping is usually in order. Frequently that approach pays dividends but not always. It's ever a crap shoot because of course taste is ever subjective. And by that I mean that in the case of e-juice it's really really subjective.

You and your best bud can absolutely adore/violently abhor the very same juice. That may seem an obvious thing to us snusers since the same phenom is at work but the situation is aggravated with e-juices because the number of choices is several orders of magnitude greater than with snus. Finding juice one really likes is by far the biggest challenge in the vaping game and makes the whole equipment choice issue pale in comparison. It is worth the trouble though, frustrating as it might sometimes seem.

I couldnt agree with Darwin more! Well put. And sometimes you have days when nothing tastes good. Vapers tongue. Sinuss out of order. It passes. I usually suck candies those days, snus longer and snuff mre vape less.

So WOW, after initially getting the e-CAB (given to wife), then purchasing the Kanger T3 Combo with plastic clearmoziers, with a 650 mAH and a 1000mAH bettery, and finally, just got 2 ProTanks, well, 3rd time is a charm and I have landed my PERFECT setup. What a difference this tank and atomizer make.

With the Clearo's, the first 2 hits were really nice, but 3rd hit and beyond (Unless i put it down for a few minutes) developed a slightly burnt taste. I was getting discouraged, even though I have enjoyed my return to e-cigs.

But I have been vaping 2 different flavors in my 2 glass tanks since early last night, and all I can say is Wow. These things deliver clean consistent awesome tasting hits, with no burnt taste. I would imagine it has more to do with the atomizer than the glass, but Whatever it is, I am lovin it. I will be ordering more ProTanks, thats for sure. And with the glass tanks, I am ready for when I make my weed e-juice.

But unless things change as I use them longer, I can HIGHLY recommend these tanks for consistent tasting vapor hits.

I like the "airy" draw if you will. To me, out of the 3 setups I have used, this setup is producing the best draws. So if this is airy, then I like airy.

+1

Just received my new Kanger ProTank and love it and the draw and These things do deliver clean consistent awesome tasting hits.... But

BadAxe, You said you can drip right into the tip on these things? Did not know that. So! My question would be, How does dripping work? And how do you drip into the Kanger ProTank? Please explain because I don't get this whole dripping thing...

[Darwin]

You can drip with a lot of tanks but you usually can not have them full of juice when you are doing it. With a clean empty tank you can send a few drops down the tip, if it can't be removed, wait a few seconds and then vape for several drags before needing to drip some more. It's a good method for trying out juices without filling up a tank or carto. There are atomizers called RDAs, Rebuildable Dripping Atomizers, that have no tank and are meant exclusively for dripping but many kinds of tanks and carto type atomizers are available to do the job.

Rebuildable atomizers have been popping up like weeds recently and there is a ton of choices from dirt cheap to ridiculously overpriced. I've dripped into my Vivi Novas, not through the tip, and it seems to work okay but doubtless specialized hardware will work much better.

[jagmanss]

Thanks Darwin, That pretty much explains it... I was wondering how I would drip with a full tank on the Kanger ProTank and thought that that would just flood it.... Now I see... Damn! Man! I'm a freakin' noobie all over again.... Hahaaa....

Just placed another order for 2 more Kanger ProTank's... Yep! It's that good!

The simplyvapour is all that my current B/M carries. It looks like they might have the monopoly on a lot of stores in MN. My first experience with tobacco flavor was pretty rough so I went back over the weekend and picked up blue/rasp and mocha. I mixed the mocha with the emptied tobacco clearomizer and used a fresh clearomizer for the blue/rasp. Wow! the blueberry was very much to my liking and has a much smoother throat hit. The mocha again not to my liking and I think the original tobacco flavor has somehow dominated/mixed. I think that possibly a artificial smoke flavor is just not for me. It might of been in the early stages of quiting smoking but not now 5 years later. Although a real smoke now and then (like once or twice a year) does still work for me and in the SNUS/SNUFF/DIP world I also seem to be more drawn most to natural to slightly added flavors.
Overall I am now glad with my purchase and experience. Look forward to trying many more non-tobacco flavors. I still do not know if this will be in my daily rotation but more like SNUFF when I get the craving for it.

Lol, I am glad someone else explained, because I also had no idea about dripping. Someone above me mentioned it was a drip tip, so I asked about dripping, because I never have dripped, and did not know the ProTanks were drip tips. I don't think I want to get into dripping just because I don't want to go thru that whole process of constantly dripping a few drops in. I love the consistent taste from the glass tank, so until that changes (Which I know it can) I will stick with that.

[Darwin]

Drip tips are almost all removable. The Pro Tank has one of the few that is not. You can drip through most of them but many remove the tip, add a few drops, put the tip back on and vape away. Hard core drippers like it because there are many devices, RBAs and RDAs, that will allow custom built coil/wick combinations that supposedly enhance the vaping experience. Many drip just to try out juices without having to fill a tank which is what I have been doing. Drip tips have become something of a fashion accessory for vapers, along with glass tanks, which is why there is such a huge selection many of which look rather bizarre.

As to clearomizers although they have removable tips they mostly, I think, either can not be dripped at all or is something of a pain to do.

They are going to release a mini Protank. I saw a picture of it. Cute.
