Tank

There are presently 2 types of tank system in use for electronic cigarettes:

One is cartridge and atomiser type design, where a clear plastic tank filled with nicotine liquid slots inside a specially designed atomiser. These were designed to improve on the old style of cartridge that contained polyester wool which could impede the flow of liquid to the atomiser. The tank is also cleaner in use as you don’t have any wool to keep clean or replace. They also allow you to easily see how much liquid is left in the tank cartridge.

The other style of tank uses a cartomiser with a small hole in the side housed in a larger tank that is filled with nicotine liquid. The idea here is to increase the amount of time between refilling the cartomiser. The cartomisers used in these tanks hold between 1-1.5ml of liquid, and the surrounding tank then holds a further 1.5 to 6ml of liquid, depending on the version used. The liquid in the tank then seeps into the cartomiser through the small hole in it’s side ensuring it stays wet for extended periods.
