Very much like our Clockworks RTA . . . $6 shipping to the UK. I got excited when I misread that as $6 shipped... got very dissapointed when I saw the price of $71  |

Oh, well then, if its anywhere near as good as the rta you're in for a treat  I leant out both my rta's and they both come back broken where they had been left in their pockets on their mods when they sat down They're paying for the repairs though, I just have to get them sent off to that busy man clockworks |

These remind me of custom fuel filters I used to fit to my bikes!  I know they're custom built, but why is polycarbonate used, and why does e-liquid crack them? I had a look at the RA Tank, and they have a list of juice's not to be used, banana being one of them, I use banana. ??? This in turn tell me "I can't use this device, although I like it, it looks nice, it is impractical" |

The same applies to any tank system with juices that can cause cracking Tim . . . and it's not all banana flavour's only certain ones. Pyrex Tanks are of course the answer, but they're not so straightforward for manufacturing I'd think. With something like this, if you did have cracking issues, then it's not an impossibility to source polycarbonate tubing and make new tanks. Our vaping world isn't perfect, but there are fixes. |

You see my head says a vaping device should be a small diameter, not too long, contain at least 5ml of fluid and charge should last a long time. so imagine - battery, non disposable tank, replaceable wick / atomiser, mouth piece..........fill hole - almost forgot that bit. It would look like a pen, with a view window for juice level. It would not be cheap, it would cost if commercially made at least £70-90 - but it would be perfect as is. I need retail therapy lol  or to start designing ..thank you for your reply though |

Start designing . . . though I'd only want a 3ml tank please. A clear window would be a great option and it's something that Clockworks who makes the RTA's has looked at, but there are issues there with getting a leak proof seal between ideally a stainless steel body and also ideally a Pyrex window. |

Imagine an empty small diameter torch, cut viewable slit hole, insert battery and glass / acrylic tank (imagine a test tube), add in atomizer / wick mouth piece. It can be totally dissembled, standard drip tips can be fitted. Two versions 3ml tank / 5ml tank Is this the perfect vaping device? |
