I have been getting High Times Magazine for quite some time now. I can see that the vapor pen market has exploded! It must be very confusing to the newcomer to make a purchase. Heck, anything to do with concentrates has exploded! In regards to the vapor pens, I can't say that I have even seen one in the magazine that I would consider purchasing. Most brag up that they are the best and whatnot. Well, there are basically three types being advertised. Some that have pictures with oil in them that use an automizer. Those are pretty much e-ciggs. Straight oil is not going to work in those at all. They are meant for the fake wannabe oils (legal oils with no THC). Then you have the vaporizers that are like the KISS, basically a bowl with a heating coil going across the middle. They are probably junk. Up Tech has been making the KISS cart for a while now and they pretty much have that mastered with their new titanium rig. Then the third style vaporizer, is just a straight up rip off! It is just a simple 510 e-cigarette battery without any option to adjust the voltage, in other words, you can't adjust the heat. Some offer multiple set ups, like for vaping bud and such. I have not heard anything good about vaping buds with an electronic vape yet. With one small exception, I have heard the Hercules, another product from UP Tech made for the Persei, works pretty good for vaping buds and it looks very unique too. The Hercules cost $100 though. That is just the attachment. You probably get what you pay for when it comes to vaping buds. I don't plan to test it though, I am not in to vaping bud. Keep in mind with these new vaporizing companies that are advertising in High Times and all over the net, I don't think any of them have any experience whatsoever. They are all cheap knock offs. What background do they have? Do they even have real oil to test in them? I don't think that they do.

I think for vaping the oil straight the KISS cart is as good as it is going to get for now, especially the titanium KISS. All you need is the 510-601 adapter and you can attach your KISS cart to most very high quality e-cigarette equipment that has had years of testing and experience.

Again, still, my three favorite (best) vaporizers are the SVD from High Desert Vapes, the Smoktech Magneto from High Desert Vapes, and the eGo C Twist 650 mAh VV also from High Desert Vapes. The reason I purchase these from High Desert Vapes is because they are the real deal, a very reputable company who only orders their product straight from the manufacturer so there are no knock offs. When it comes to your vaporizer, you don't want a knock off if you are truly serious about vaping. In some very rare cases, mostly with very cheap stuff, the knock offs can be better. For instance, a cheap heating coil for an e-cigarette or a cheap clearomizer meant for an e-cigg. Another example would be, a cheap clearomizer knock off that I prefer works great with my e-cigg oil that I use. The original manufacturer has a design that is more tolerant to a larger spectrum of oils, they use better plastic that won't crack with certain flavored e-cigg oils. Stuff like that. Again, very rare.

My rebuildable coil unit, the AGA-TD which is a Genesis clone has been put on the back burner. Had to order some thinner gauge wire for the coils. I need a break from messing around building coils anyway. It is a very tedious job.

Back to e-cannabis. I can't wait! It may be the best rig yet. Kanger just came out with a new tank, the Aerotank. It accepts the ProTank 3 bottom fed coils, which is cool since I already have a ProTank 3 and replacement coils for it. There are some pros and cons with this. Supposedly the new unit will not leak because it draws the air from the top. The airflow is adjustable too, which should make all the difference. One of my biggest complaints with the ProTank3, besides the leaking, was it drew in too much air which I believe contributed to the high throat burn. Another cool thing, it looks a lot like one of those $200 Ithaca completely rebuildable units. I was hoping that somebody would come out with a prefabricated, replaceable dual coil bottom fed tank with adjustable airflow. The only bad thing I have heard about this unit is the 510 drip tip is not the same size as the typical drip tips and the one it comes with is a little loose. It is a 510, but not many 510 tips fit in it correctly, according to the product review. Really that should not be much of an issue for us e-cannabis users. I could just goop the tip up with a little oil and it will stick in just fine. Either way, I just ordered it from High Desert Vapes and can't wait to try it out. https://highdesertva...rotank-Kit.html

I will be reporting back as soon as I get my hands on it. Hopefully this will be the best of them all.

While I am waiting for my new Aerotank to arrive, I will cast my final judgement on the KISS cart for Persei 3.7V.

I will probably discuss the longevity in the future.

Moving on, keep in mind this is my personal preference and opinion. Used with the oil that I make.

As you can see in the picture below, there are three new adapters in the baggie. At least two of those adapters will be for the original KISS for my personal back up. The original KISS may be more recreational, but it sure does work well with my mechanical vape. I really enjoy using the mechanical vape. As you get more comfortable using the mechanical vape, quickly feather the button, with all batteries, a little faster with the larger batteries, it does offer a high quality medicinal effect, just a little more art to it. I only recommend the KISS cart to be used with a mechanical vape.

I will be ordering a couple more original KISS carts for the Persei 3.7V for back up. Dedicated to be used only with my mechanical vapes.

As for APV, Variable Voltage, MOD vaporizers, etc. People will probably prefer the Titanium KISS because you have more options with adjusting the voltage (turn the heat up). It is nice and all, but I prefer to use e-cannabis oil with a clearomizer with the variable voltage MODs.

Can't wait for the Aerotank to arrive! Have oil ready and waiting for it!!

Just received the Kanger Tech Aero Tank today.

Since I have only used it for a few hours, I will just give a quick first impression overview of it.

So far it could be the best. It will take some time to know for sure.

It does have the same type of glass as the ProTank3. It also has the same heating coil as the ProTank3. However, the Aero Tank seems to have a better design for holding the heating coil to where there is practically no waste. The oil kind of funnels down to a small bowl that has dual heating coils.

At this time I am liking it better than the ProTank3. The Aero Tank offers the same taste as with most glass, you can really notice sweet flavors. Still get a little throat burn, but not nearly as bad as with the ProTank3. Even with the air control all the way open, the Aero Tank still does not draw as much air as the PT3. I really like how you can even close the air holes off. It appears that the oil cannot leak down to the battery. it does appear that there is a possibility that it could leak, pretty much the first area would be right at the air holes which are located under the oil level of the tank on the sides. There is an outer ring that threads up and down to cover or uncover the air holes.

Now, it was mentioned on the product description that there could be an issue with the 510 drip tip. Yes, a lot of my other 510 drip tips will not fit on the Aero Tank. In most cases it is due to the gasket being too thick. The ProTank3 510 drip tip fits perfect on the Aero Tank, nice and tight. It even seems that the hits with the PT3 drip tip may be a little smoother. It is a little thicker metal with a smaller hole. It does not look as nice as the original tip for the Aero Tank, but it does look nice.

Now keep in mind I am referring to using this with e-cannabis oil. If it all works out, I may start using it with e-cigarettes too.

The drip tip that comes on the Aero Tank is a little loose like in the product description says it is. That is not a problem for us concentrate users. Just simply goop a little concentrate around the tip on the gasket as well as where the tip fits into the unit. It keeps it air tight until it starts to dry, which will take a week or two. Either way, it is air tight.

The Aero Tank tip is a little thinner metal compared to the ProTank3 tip. It causes a little more burn. Then again, I really don't have it broken in yet so I don't have enough information to justify a complaint about it.

Assuming the Aero Tank does not have a leaking problem, and it keeps on working the way it is, this may just be what I was looking for. It seems to work well with the mechanical vape too. Not all of my accessories do.

I will report back after doing some more testing. As much testing as humanly possible!

The Kanger ProTank3 and Aero Tank each offer a beauty ring that attaches to outer eGo threads. You can attach it to a pen battery or other device and it makes the transition from the battery to the device look pretty.

I give Kanger a thumbs up for offering that.
