Hi i have just ordered a rok star and have been reading up on the clear cartomizers. I have found a list of juices that can crack some tanks and wondered if anyone can offer advice. I only vape TW cherry (low) and wondered if this juice has caused any problems with other carts. Many thanks.

Polycarbonate will/may crack with Any juice that has:
Sour flavors Malic acid Citrus acid Cinnamon like "atomic cinnamon" types, not warm cinnamon like cinnamon coffe cake, this is okay Wintergreen juice or flavoring TPA ripe banana flavoring TPA honeysuckle flavoring TPA maraschino cherry flavoring TPA cherry blossom flavoring TPA root beer flavoring Mrs. T's strawberry shortcake, snickerdoodle KBV Hummingbird nectar mimosa(because of the orange) cola(because of cinnamon)? Vapor Renu Teaberry, cherry vanilla (possibly most of their flavors) Vapor Renu Mt. Dew baha blast and Strawberry limeade Oil based/e liquid that conains essential oils, when mixed with pg/vg, creates esters which will crack plastics E liquids that contain triacetin, used in vg liquids to carry flavor more effectively Vapalicious Gooey Butter Cake Nutmeg Clove oil Mt. Dew flavoring TPA Cinnamon Danish flavoring Sassafras Rawrvapor Hawaii Sunrise TPA Vanilla Custard flavoring Tasty Vapor Cherry Cola
Perfumer's Apprentice lists triactetin as in ingredient in some of their flavors, so be sure to check that out.
Disclaimer: These are not "bad" juices. They just have the potential to cause cracking in tank systems using polycarbonate tubing.

That's a very useful list Jason . . . I'm very happy to see that Caramel & Butterscotch aren't listed as possible suspects.

Thankyou Jason. Could you recommend any of your sweet ejuices that are suitable for the clear carts. I've used Banoffee, Strawberry Ice Cream, Krazy Karamel, Peaches and Candy Twist without problem Furball and we don't use any flavouring with triactetin in. I would say the best bet with the tanks would be to avoid citrus flavours and definately cinnamon flavours (if the cinnamon doesn't crack them it will discolour them).

Isn't it strange how our tastes differ. I didn't like the strawberry ice cream flavour much, it had a bit of a nasty aftertaste on the exhale for me.
