This review is purely my opinion, and no way reflects those held by this website www.planetofthevapes.co.uk

Vendor:- Vapegear
Cost:- £9.99

Consists of:-
2 x times polycarbonate tanks, 1 standard, 1 XL.
Stainless steel end caps
Screw protected fill hole to top cap
locking "plinth"/extension plate

Excludes:-
Cartomizers
Drip tip

Was looking for a tank that looked decent, took standard cartos and didn't constantly dump juice all over my clumsy self. So far so good!

To start, you pop the thread through the bottom end
cap. The bottom of the cap narrows, so the threads can't poke all the way through. From here you screw what's left of the thread into the locking plate... straight forward as anything.

Personally I take this opportunity to punch a hole in the carto, as with the base in place, you know where you're aiming ;)

The tube and ends are screw threads as well as opposed to just being push shut... which is a nice touch.

Filling is simple. Before you add a drip tip, just unscrew the small screw on the top thread, grab syringe, the rest writes itself. Worth baring in mind if you don't have at least some airflow coming out of the tank whilst filling, it may force liquid back up the carto (tasty!)

For the price, it looks tidy, though with the locking plinth it is bordering on the large side.

Another word of warning. The 510 connector on the base is rather long. Hold it next to a vivi or a Vapeonly BCC and you'll see what i mean!

On both my vamo and tesla, it creates a short if you attach it tightly.

Other than that, it's a cracking bit of kit, plenty of options and at the price point, I personally haven't seen much better in the limited time I've been looking :D
 
Where did you get your needle bottle or syringe?
I have this tank and no needle that will fit
 
I use an 18 gauge that I believe I got from ecig wizard... either that or it's from paradise vapes. In fairness either work so take your pick :D
 
thumbs up from me too, thinking of getting a second one when wage day rolls around (think ive bought enough this month)
 
I got this tank too and I like it although havent a syringe that fits yet what I did was unsrew the top simple

that works too, but remember to take the filler nut out anyway or else when you are screwing the lid down it can cause air to be trapped inside and compressed pushing the ejuice out the bottom of the carto then pouring out of the air channels in the base, the same thing happens when i use my needle top bottles too as although the tip fits its tight and theres no room for air

actually I thought it did but it doesnt tends to leak like a cheaper hooker, ive tried putting it back together with or without the nut and sadly it leaks big time through the 510 end.................. not loving it now but its because of user error but it has put me off a bit that and the fact that the thread is just a little long creating a gap.

I was going to ask if anyone else had the leaking problem but I think it is me as opposed to anything wrong with the tank :imstupid:thud:

since ive been taking the top off to fill with the nut out ive had pretty much no leakage at all, sometimes a tiny spot just after filling but otherwise dry as a bone, maybe i just got lucky and stumbled onto the right method quickly
