As i have now tried a few clearo's i would like to try out a cartomizer tank. I have seen loads of different kinds so far and i am struggling to choose the one that i want.
As i am still experimenting with flavors so far i want a glass tank to eliminate any chance of shattering cracking the tank. I like the way that an AGR tank locks the carto into the tank so it won't slide about but i am not sure if it has a Pyrex tank or not.
Can anyone point me in the right direction towards a quality, reasonable priced Pyrex carto tank?

I have the AGR-2 which has a polycarbonate tank. Cheap and cheerful to experiment with before you splash out on more expensive toys.  The Kir Fanis Trap Tank is identical to the AGR-2 and has a glass tank available (I think). I am waiting for delivery of Phiniac's Skinny Phinny pyrex tank which looks pretty nifty. I will post an update when it arrives. |

A couple of observations on prepunched and normal cartos in tanks.
Normal cartos - You have to punch the hole in the carto yourself. My experience is that some of the time the carto will flood and juice will leak out of the airhole. This doesn't always seem to be connected to the size of the hole. I have punched big holes and it doesn't leak, small holes and it leaks. I'm guessing it is a consequence of having to deform the carto to punch the hole and the hole not being a regular shape.
Pre-punched cartos - Leak if the carto slides inside the tank. On the other hand the pre-punched cartos don't seem to flood very often and they work for me with juices as viscous as 50/50 PG/VG. These usually have a flange at the bottom to stop the carto sliding upwards, but they won't fit in an AGR.
You pays your money and takes your choice.
BTW - My AGRs have a very long 510 connection and are not even close to fitting flush on several of my mods.

If this is what you're looking at, then yes Stu . . . you'll need a carto punch or saddle valve for piercing your cartomisers with, if you do purchase it. www.vapegear.co.uk/product/agr |

That should do you. Have fun. I do like the AGRs but just be aware that every now and again you'll get the hole wrong. |

I have an AGR carto tank, it's great.
However, one comment (DJs at pub)
I could not get pre punched to work. Not a hope in hell
