Correct RBA for my EU baby tank

[Mitz]

Did any one ever get a glass piece to fit with the RBA in place?

This is the correct size....

Hi Mitz
Thanks for the quick response!

I have just measured my glass piece and they seem to be 22mm in height (not very accurate measurement due to it being done with a tape measure), which is the same height as the Amazon ones you sent.

My friend has a micrometer so I will try that also.

Have you got the baby beast tank working with an RBA?

I have attached some pics to show my set up:

This is the RBA with the 22m glass and no extender to make the coil longer:

The gaps in both images are quite tiny.

No worries. The ones I linked are 19mm in height. 19x22mm.

Ahhh ok so they are writing H x W I normally do it the other way round, sweet I have ordered some.
Did you end up using these with your RBA?
I visited two vape shops in town today and they told me that the Baby wont take any RBA's... Lol!

I haven't personally bought these exact ones. But a couple of members have confirmed that 19mm is the correct size.

You can also use an extension kit. https://www.fasttech.com/product/7967000-authentic-smoktech-smok-tfv8-baby-tank-extension

Sadly many shops don't know what they're talking about and give incorrect advice.

I'm sure the ones I linked are the right ones but if I'm wrong drop me a pm and I'll buy them off you so you recover everything you paid.

Ok great!

I have the extension kit but it doesn't seem to work with the 22mm glass, the second picture in my previous post is with the extension.

I guess there are a lot of information to take on to answer any question a vaper may have, difficult to be giving the right advice all the time and I believe as men we (me and the store assistant) prefer to give wrong advice rather than say "I am not sure". Hah!

One of the questions on the Amazon page confirms that someone is using the glass with the V8 Baby RBA deck so I am sure this is what I need.

Thanks again Mitz you have been great!

No worries mate. Smok made it a minefield with all the different versions of the tfv8 range. And the TPD regs didn't help as it added all the 2ml versions.

And I agree, many places would rather give bad advice than no advice. And many put sales before customer needs. There's many great shops but there are also those that let the rest down.

Glad I could help. Anything else you need, you know where we are.

In my experience on using a RBA and supplied glass in the non compliant tpd (3ml) tank
The glass was just a tad too short and I overcame this problem by using an extra Oring at the base of the glass
Meaning I have two Orings at the base of the glass

When I look at my tank I can barely see the wicking ports which are clearly visible in your pictures
Meaning my rba sits a lot lower into the base than yours

Try taking the tank off the mod and then screwing the rba into the base allowing the rba to push the 510 pin further out of the base of the tank

I tried this using the O-Rings provided in the SMOK AL85 kit(only ones I have) and the glass piece didn't fit
