Update:
After only 2 short months my V-Max has gone bye bye. I have several friends I give units to for long term testing. It wasn’t dropped or abused. It still lights up when you put the batteries in, but it no longer fires. Could be a button issue, but I can’t figure out a way to get in there.
Also, the paint chips off very easily and someone showed me a unit at the New England vape meet that had stripped threads on the battery cap.
I hope yours fares better.

HEADS UP ON THIS TANK…
So there are times I need to do things I don’t like to do. This is one of those times.
As you know, I received this tank as a gift at the White Rose Meet. It’s made by Dan Garduno/KosmicGlass.com.
I asked Dan a bunch of questions on this tank and planned a review on it cause I was using it and I was loving it… BUT…
The seals appear to be breaking down under the e-liquid. The first thing I noticed was the taste of the juice changing. Then, when I went to clean out the tank, I used a bit of paper towel and noticed some black coming off the seals onto the paper towel.
That’s the bad news. The good news is that I had some conversations with Dan about this and he’s looking into different materials for the seals. Including white and clear silicone. Hopefully Dan can get this resolved as I really do love the look of this tank.

From Harley
Hello Phil,
My name is Harley and I am still pretty much a newbie to the wonderful world of vaping. I started about 11 weeks ago with blucigs, and while they managed to keep me off cigarettes, I was constantly frustrated and disappointed by their performance. Then I discovered a vaping store about 8 miles from my home here in Cumming, Georgia named Awesome Vapor. They introduced me to Joyetech products and I am now a full blown vaping nut!!! I own 510’s, 650mah & 1000mah eGo’s, as well as Lava Tubes in both full size and mini versions.
As I first began my quest to learn more about vaping, I was amazed to see that there are so many products out there and by the whole vaping culture that I had no idea existed. As I’m sure you know, it can all be very overwhelming to a beginner such as myself. I went to YouTube and began watching videos posted by vapers, sharing tips and reviewing products… which brings me to the reason I am writing you. I find your videos to be some of the most helpful and insightful out there and I like that fact that your reviews are so thorough and honest. I have learned so much from you and have come to respect and trust your opinions. I want to thank you for taking the time to make your videos and share your knowledge with the rest of us. You are definitely an asset to the vaping community. I also enjoy and have learned much from the videos by GrimmGreen and Dr. Vaper, but yours are my favorite and have been the most helpful.
I recently purchased a J-Tank for my Lava Tube based on your review and absolutely love it!!! I wouldn’t have known about it if it wasn’t for you. I also have and use a couple of Smoktech DCT tanks. I know they aren’t your favorite but they seem to perform well for me and I like them. However, the J-Tank seems to peform better and I believe it’s because of the Boge cartomizer I bought to use with it. Cris at Awesome vapor tells me the Boge cartomizers are all you use and I can see why, they seem to really work well. Her and the rest of the gang at AV have been really helpful to me and are just really good people, and their customer service is outstanding!
Yesterday, I saw your video on the Smoktech eGo DCT tank from Kalamazoo Vapor Shop and ordered one to try out because I like to carry my eGo for on-the-go vaping. I am currently using the 3mil Smoktech Mega Cartomizers on my eGo because I like the way they fit, look, and feel. They seem to perform well but I tend to like the DCT tanks better, they just look and feel a little awkward on my eGo. But the new eGo tanks look like they will be the perfect solution. Thanks for the video making me aware that they exist. It was actually a link on Kalamazoo’s website that led me to your Facebook page and I just had to write and say thank you for your videos and all that you contribute to the vaping community, I am definitely a fan.
I apologize if this email is too long winded but I have become very passionate about vaping over the past few weeks and I am very grateful to you for the help you have given me in learning about it and sorting through all the products out there. I was a pack and a half per day smoker for 25 years and have wanted to quit so badly for quite some time now, but just couldn’t seem to do it. I have been smoke free for 11 weeks now, thanks to vaping, and I don’t miss a single thing about cigarettes. My only regret is that I didn’t do it sooner. Thanks again Phil, and keep up the good work.
Harley
