Just wanted to drop you a note, I thought this vape thing was just a bunch of bull , till a few months ago when I saw one of your vids ..
I smoked for over 25 years, tried e-cigs, with no luck, then I found vaping, started with a ego, but after watching your vids I got a Young June Lava tube within two weeks …
Now I already have an assortment of tanks and starting on my tube collection ..
Thanks for being entertaining as well as informative, because no one wants to watch a seminar , you kept my attention long enough for me to actually learn something ..
Thanks..
Rich.
THE NEW KANGER AEROTANKS – THE MINI AND MEGA
A PBusardo Review Kanger AeroTank Mini & Mega
In this video we take a full and long look at these new tanks from Kanger & break apart one of their new heads. I also talk about cleaning clearo heads.
What’s the deal with “Take 2”?? Why Take 2? Because in that video a slightly cranky Phil looks at the FINAL VERSION of the Kanger Aerotank Mega and Mini as opposed to the pre-production prototype version he just spent 5 hours making the video review for. Which, by the way, he thought was the final version. Ugh!

Post Review Follow-up:
- 4/5/14 – I’ve confirmed with Kanger THIS IS the final version of their new tanks and the version you will be able to purchase.

Mr Busardo,
I just wanted to take the time for thanking you for putting all this information out
there and making it available. You’ve helped me put down cigarettes – for good. In
exchange for a vapor.
Just to let you know how difficult and necessary it was to quit I’ll give you a
brief smoking history. I started when I was 16; and, being in the service
industry became a 2 pack a day smoker. Well 3 years ago I was a pedestrian and got
hit by a truck doing 60mph and while I survived and went through some other
changes I was left a paraplegic for life. My positive attitude and resilience led
me to become a volunteer counselor for other people in that situation. The fact
that my work history was driving a rig and working in the device industry meant I
had to go back to college at the age of 33 and move back in with my parents. ONLY
A LITTLE STRESSFUL. My fianc??, kids and the cigarettes were a great escape from
the stress. Not to mention I went to school for electrical engineering – why not
add more
Stress?
In any event I graduated in December and had a major surgery scheduled for the end
of February. That surgery and the week long hospital stay and the need to be off
the cigs
To heal faster meant that it was time to make the cigs go
Bye bye. So around October I went and got a blu-it sucked. Then I got a ego blister
pack-it sucked too; so, I got an eroll- it sucked more. Then I found ECF and your
website; which, led to my MVP2 and aerotank. The day I got the Aerotank and decent
juice was the day the cigs went in the trash!!!! Now I’m waiting for my Provari to
get here say after tomorrow!!!
Anyway thank you so much for having such aarge volume of info in one place and doing
some great, entertaining and informative reviews!!!
Quitting cigs was definitely one of the hardest things I’ve done and if it weren’t
for all this information put in ways I can understand I would be smoking my pallmall
light 100’s right now instead of RY4 from SmokeCignals!!!
Keep up the good work in some cases you really are saving some peoples lives! In my
case that’s not being dramatic!

Mr. Busardo , I have been watching all your Review and Vids for a month
now, and I enjoy all of them please keep them up and thank you for all
your hard work. You have been a great help to me on my Journey in
quitting smoking, I have been smoke free for a month now. When I
Decided that I needed to quit but didn’t know if I could I found a
e-cig review you did and made me really stop and think that this may
work. I was a 2 pack a day smoker for the past 25+ years and it feels
good to not be smoking. I have had many family members pass away from
cancer due to smoking. The Love of my life for the past 20 years is
suffering from cancer and it hurts me to know I don’t have much time
left on this world with her. She was my biggest inspiration on
quitting, I want to spend as much time with her as I can and be able to
be here for her.
I want to thank you from the bottom of my Heart for giving me the tools
and information I so desperately needed to help guide me in the right
direction, To help me regain my freedom from the chains of smoking.Thank You Brother,
Sincerely , P.Matthew

Hey Phil,
As a fan of your reviews and your rants, I just wanted to say how sorry I am to hear
about the loss of your uncle Nick.Back when I was a smoker roughly a year and a half ago, I was skimming through some
videos on YouTube on other methods of quitting smoking. I tried everything man…
gum, dip, patches, throwing away packs then hours after buying another… then I saw
a video of one of your reviews. as confused and ignorant as I was about e-cigs I
began watching some older videos of your reviews, which sparked an interest in them.
I went ahead and purchased a V2 kit. Quit smoking cold turkey. Since then, Vaping
and your reviews have been my life.Now I’m working for Avail Vapor in Norfolk Va. Without making this a book. I never
thanked you for your reviews and other videos not only were you the door for me
into the vaping world, your reviews also make my job Much easier. I really hope one
day I can enjoy a vape with you at an event.Thanks again,
Timothy
INTERESTING NEW KANGER TANKS
A couple interesting new tanks from Kanger… The Aerotank Mini and the Aerotank Mega.
Both are glass & stainless. Both are slick looking. Both have airflow control. The Mega has a very familiar look to it. But it’s the heads that are most interesting. Look familiar?
The design looks much less like a standard Kanger head and much more like an Aspire head.
You can bet I’ll be tearing these apart soon enough.
THE ELECTRIC ANGEL NEBULA GENESIS ATOMIZER
It’s been a trying night in review land tonight.
I grabbed the Electric Angel Nebula out of it’s slot for a review. The goal was to build it and begin the evaluation.
Here’s a little detail on the atty:
- Stainless steel body
- Borosilicate glass tank
- Adjustable air flow controller with 1, 1.2, and 1.6mm air holes
- An insulated 2.25mm wick hole
- 22mm in diameter
- 4ml tank capacity
- Brass connections
- Holes in the posts for easy coil installation
- Includes mesh, 32 AWG Kanthal, and spare o-rings
- Price is 119,00€ = $164.20
- Available from Electric Angel
The issues began right away.
- The first thing I noticed was the VERY SMALL wick hole. I’m not a fan of tiny wick holes in the genesis design which limit larger wicks with more liquid capacity.
- I tried to remove the glass from the atomizer’s body. I was applying so much force I started to worry about it breaking so I gave up.
- I built my coil with the plan of using a small cotton wick pushed into the tank. When installing the coil, I noticed the negative screw didn’t tighten, it just kept spinning. I tightened it as best I could.
- When I tried to position the coil, the negative post snapped off rendering the device useless.
I’m not going to spend time on a video for this. Unfortunately, this one gets a thumbs down and will be removed from the queue.
