Is the Aerotank-Mini any good or not?

[Timbo]

I do see a lot of good stuff said about this clearomizer but there are some bad stuff said about the upgraded heads.

I was done with clearomizers a while ago but I want a decent performing clearomizer to sit on top of my newly purchased mvp. This is because I am taking it on holiday. I will most likely be using it on an ego battery as well hence why I am interested in the mini version.

I know the mvp comes with a clearomizer, in this case an iclear 30 but I wanted something with Pyrex glass and afc.

Just some feedback from long usage with the Aerotank-Mini would be great.

Thanks a lot,

Timbo :-)

I am very impressed with mine, I prefer it over the standard Aerotank. The only drawbacks are you cannot fill the tank completely and the are flow control ring on mine seems to be far to easy to turn. Wasn't like this when I had it though but it seems to be far to loose.

Hi meeee, I have had the same problem with my Aerotank, and even worse with my Ithaka clone. A strip of PTFE tape sorted them both out.

Obviously, trial & error to get the resistance just right but as I very rarely change the setting, it looks like being a permanent fix. I just scraped off the excess with a scalpel so it's invisible.

thanks I will give it a go,  I do prefer the air flow control on the Nautilus as it had a nice click to it, Kanger should think about doing the same for the Aerotanks

I bloody love PTFE tape, it's so versatile. Shame it's so expensive

Another of Willy's Hints & Tips: If your drip-tip is a bit loose, try wrapping PTFE tape round its end. I even use it for plumbing

Anyone remember Viz's Top Tips? My favourite was: "A handful of wasps in an old cigar tube makes an ideal emergency vibrator"

That is just so wrong, on several levels...

So there is no gurgling or dry hits?

Plenty of flavour and vapor?

and use your empty PTFE tape reels for your silica storage

I've just got mine today. It's a very nice vape. Lots of flavour. Nice draw. Can't comment on dry hits or gurgling it's a bit early.

 I don't suppose this is the best forum to ask if anyone has any old cigar tubes
