I'm thinking of trying carto tanks. I've had a few depressing re-wick/coil incidents recently.

Is there a size you would recommend? or even a link?

This is a well recommended Carto Tank Djs . . .

I quite like Dual Coil Tanks as well, although every so often you can get a DC that's a bit leaky.

Vivi Nova, Protank and Evods . . . all the heads are rebuildable on them Rich.

Although being a bit childish and spoilt im now eyeing up the carto tank link you just posted and watched the video... i like those also (in fact i can now see how so many of the people here get carried away with the vast array of equipment out there)

It's called shinyitis. You either have it, or will have it.

Welcome Rich . . . and yes, it is soooooooooooo very easy to get carried away and I generally do.


But, it's better than burning money away on the cigs and it's good fun trying out different things.

Could nt agree more on better spending on the shiny things rather than tobacco

Was an added bonus when i realised that learning about vaping helped the stopping smoking by diverting my mind from smoking to learning something new.

Some good links already for carto tanks

my favourite at the moment is this

gr-modders.com/shop/21-trap-tank-by-kir-fanis.html

try the ones linked to earlier, if you like them, then invest in the above

Ps dinamic im glad its going according to plan....if someone told me a month ago stopping smoking cigarettes could be done without becoming suicidal or murderious id never have believed them (amazes me i can sit with sokers and not feel the urge for one )

yes i'm the same Rich, i can even go out for a drink & not be bothered about going for a smoke, its great

Hi Rich, welcome from me too. Lots of good advise ^^^^^
As others have said, you cannot really re-build a carto. You can however buy re-buildable atomisers that use wadding to hold the juice - you can use the stuff that is for aquarium filters (Sera). This is one of the best and is not too difficult to get hold of (not in stock at the moment):

www.vapistsvapourizers.co.uk/GP_Spheroid_V2_Rebuildable_Atomizer/p1436124_7875548.aspx

I can practically hear you saying how much !! I have had one of these for a fair time, it costs a few pennies for the wick and wire and a small bag of Sera will last for years. I have re-coiled this nearly 20 times now and it is still as good as when I got it and likely to last for a long time to come. I think most people who have tried one would also say that it is noticeably better than a carto

I'm not suggesting that you rush out and buy one straight away, but if you do the maths it is well worth considering in the longer run

Tempting. Do they take regular sized cartos (with holes or punch them yourself)?

Any kind of leaking? If they vape like a carto and hold more juice than a mini nova, I'm in!!!!

They come with 2 tubes so you can use either regular or XL cartos that you punch yourself, or you can buy ready punched ones.

I have a couple of these.  One has been brilliant but one was really leaky.  I sent it to Simon and he messed about with it and put new o rings on it and it's now fine

Hmmm. Not sure now....

Too much leaking today....took an evod and V3 out for the day and both were naughty.

Came home, filled up a Nova....ahhh, bliss......

It's that old dilemma Djs . . . stick with what you know works for you, or try something new just incase you might be missing out on something better or different to what you've already got.

I keep succumbing despite being perfectly happy with what I've already got. Though my recent ' new ' purchases have been good.

Don't know until you try these things.

Hi
Update
I opted for the Kanger pro tank and just having tried tried it out, it really is amazing the difference from the clearo and carts that came with the Riva.

Looks a tad odd on the Riva 1100 battery but hey ho, i can deal with that until im ready to step up

thanks for all suggestions
