Trouble Shooting the Tornado Tank System

Sorry folks.I am not trying to slate the tank at all. :)I really love the concept of it and how it works.Tis very well made and a real breakthrough for everyone. :)Did think it was just me for a while,but have looked at what others think and tbh i think its about a 70/30 split in favour of an LR atty for the tank.Alot of people have said the same as me, in as much as TW should really have made a standard, and LR atty before releasing the tank. Really do love it, and have tried and will continue to try with it coz its hassle free which is excellent.I even resorted to adding James's power packed menthol 36mg, to see if that would make any difference.Now that juice is crammed with flavour and at 3.7v with an LR atty/carto is totally out of this world. BUT,the tank atty managed to tame it rite down SO,i put the same juice in an LR carto and WOW it blew my head off. This proves to me that i really can only use LRs happily,unless at 5v on the 101.The menthol still tasted lovely in the tank,and like Perpy said,vapour is very good to,but really i also need the BIG throat hit to complete the package. I cant understand why when i first started using it,for the first day the atty was like an LR901, and day two it faded down and is now like a standard 901.Not great at 3.7v,for me personally

LOL Scylla,shes a happy chappy,aint she Started to yawn before she started speaking. Think she was trying to convince herself it was good tbh.I guess its great for people that dont mind more flavour and vapour as compared to throat hit.I am gonna have one more blast tomorrow, and if i am still not happy,i will send it me dad for him to give it a whirl. :)Wish i had only got one atty and not two now.I am still going to keep some carts, coz i am determined to get one into a BE112LR.Just need to modify it a little

[Scylla]

Lol, Ian - I like the laid-back style meself

What would we do without your adventures in vaping, Ian? Hurry up and do yer mod and do us a video

I'd be surprised if there was ever a device/system that checked every vapers boxes . . . how boring would that be anyway.

Overall I prefer a Mega LR atomiser to the Tank, the carts hold a fair amount of juice and for me they give the vape I enjoy . . . but I'll still be very curious to see what permutation EM have on the Tank.

Lol Lisa I think she makes a lot of sense Great video review

:)Agreed Perpy.Even though my mega LRs died very prematurely,they provided a strong,awesome vape.That is the sort of atty i want on my tank system. I am sure it will happen,eventually Gonna go and see what i can do now regarding the BE112LR.If i can get the tank into it then it will work much better,i am positive it can be done to.

My 'Tank' arrived this morning and is great but....it doesn't fit on all my Tornado batteries!
I have never paid much attention to the depth of thread on them, but the tank attie only fits those with a narrow thread....
All my Tornedos came from TW, mostly bought in the sale, but only 4 out of ten have the correct thread size for this particular attie.
Something to consider if anyone is thinking of making the purchase.
So far, so good with the system tho', lots of vapour and good flavour.
I've never been bothered by throat hit so this works well for me, today at least!
It's a great concept and I look forward to new developements.
It's a nuisance about the battery threads tho'.....

Lynwlt they should fit so I would get in contact with TW and explain.

LMAO classic

Edit to say

It was just a ramble about the tank and sorry that I bored you before I even started LOL.

I have such and engaging personality haha

[Scylla]

Maybe tell TW and ask if they do an adapter thread>thread?

Sounds all wrong to me ???

Top marks from me to Lisa for being prepared to do a live video recording.

I'd rather stick pins in my eyes or at the very least have a paper bag over my noodle.

How very annoying Lynda, as Scylla says - an email to TW wouldn't go amiss.

Thanks Lisa for the review and to lynwit for pointing out there might be a problem. I was tempted to jump in with both feet and buy the tank but I will wait and see now. I'm happy with the mega Tornado battery with the big atty and cart although I won't be buying any more LR atties as they just don't last long enough and are, therefore, not cost effective (IMHO); I shall stick instead to the regular mega ones and the mega-cartos that leak like mad if not modified with a turn of insulating tape.

..creeping back in very quietly...
It would seem that there was a 'burr' on the thread of the attie which has been removed with the constant fiddling that I have been doing..
It's now working well with all but two batteries.

Foxy, I found the Maga atties lasted no time at all.
Maybe I should try again. I did love them whilst they lasted.

Have to say that I love how long the little tank of juice lasts..

Thank goodness you've sorted most of the battery threads, Lynda

Ah, so I'm not the only one! I stopped using them. Shall see if there's a YouTube on applying the tape
