This is my first time using a glass tank set up. It uses a different style of heating element called a cartomizer. This is not a customized piece of crap like other companies offer, this is the real deal. I did not expect the cartomizer to vape so well. Not to mention the glass, it can't be beat. Whether it is for concentrates or e-cigarettes, if you are looking for full flavor the glass tanks are the way to go.
Here is a link if you would like to have a custom tank made. http://highdesertvap...r-Own-Tank.html
There are many shapes and sizes to choose from. If you want your own custom designed tank I highly recommend you take a look at their pre-made tanks to help give you a better ideal of what you want.
Here are some pre-made glass tanks, all very cool too! Some are one and only's and others there are just a few. http://highdesertvap...Tanks/For-Sale/
Lastly, you will need a glass drip tip. They have many different types to choose from. http://highdesertvap...lass-Drip-Tips/

Looks like we will have to wait for the Supreme Court ruling before making any more concentrates, at least in Michigan. The COA just ruled that all concentrates are illegal and the only legal way to use medical marijuana is basically smoking joints or eating it raw. No oils or resins, no topicals, no edibles. We can tell who is running this country and it is not the people, it is big corporations like the pharmaceutical companies. Hopefully I can get back to making oil again.
Just thought I would share one more picture of my custom glass rig.

The oil is the only solution for a large portion of the people. One of my patients right now has no choice and it is not for medicinal reasons. It is for Federal housing reasons. There are many people in fed housing in this state. They can't just go smoke joints or vape buds. They could wind up homeless faster than flies on poop. People in this type of situation, or even in a regular apartment, or a parent that is not ready for their children to see them using the medicine. These people can vape the oil in a pen vaporizer or eat the oil and nobody would know the difference and they would not have to worry about becoming homeless because somebody reported smelling marijuana.
Also, they can easily store/hide/lock up the medicine without having to be concerned with it getting moldy, damaged, no need to worry about smell/aroma, it has a long term shelf life. With most of the e-cigg equipment especially the iClear16 it is much more pleasurable on the lungs. You don't get all the strong expando and coughing. You don't get the stink that smoking joints or vaping buds puts out.
In my opinion, it is safer, better, and more medicinal. RSO is the way to go!

After having used the custom glass tank with a cartomizer for a while, it does have its good side, but also has its bad side, especially when used with cannabis oil. With the cartomizers that are available (1.5 ohm), for me to get it to work correctly I have to dilute or thin out the oil more with the PG USP. It requires much more patients and experience to get these to work right with any oil. It is really easy to damage the cartomizer.

For using e-cigarette oils the innokin i30 tank attachment, it comes standard with an SVD vaporizer. This tank has one bad side. The metal tip or mouthpiece has an effect on sweet flavors. It kind of takes away the sweet flavors. It may not be the right tank for you because of this for using with e-cigarette oils. So far I see no negative side for using cannabis oil with it. It may even be a good or preferred side effect with the metal mouthpiece when using cannabis oil. I can't really taste any PG USP mixed into the RSO while using the i30 tank. Well, I guess there is one downside, it is an oil hog!! You go through a lot of oil, but it surely delivers the most powerful hits that I have encountered.
The i30 is available in different colors and has 510 threads too. I recommend using variable voltage batteries (VV) though.

The i16 and i30 are my favorites. The wick type dual heating elements on both of these units are interchangeable so you can use i30 wicks in an i16 clearomizer or vice versa. There is only about a $0.20 price difference between the two replacement wicks. The links are in entries above.
The CE4 V4 clearomizer may be your best choice for your battery with whatever oil you choose. You can get them in different colors. They work great. The CE4s are disposable, not rebuildable. They have a single heating element so they deliver a smaller hit that is much easier on the lungs, especially if you have breathing problems. You may prefer it because you like to take 5 to 10 draws instead of only 2 or 3 draws from your vaporizer. Currently they only cost $3.99 and will work in all 510 thread batteries. I only recommend using these as a replacement to the DreamVapor clearomizers or non-adjustable 510 thread batteries. I still recommend having a variable voltage battery around. You will get a whole new life to your clearomizer since you can turn up the voltage. Here is a link to the CE4 disposable clearomizer.

They also make a rebuildable CE4. I don't care for it. It is made of good quality, but it is too bad that they do not offer a full length wick for the heating element, it is like little stumps and you have to tip the e-cigg to soak the wick, then tip it back to take a hit. That sucks and it is too bad that is the only way they offer it.
Something else I would like to note. I have noticed that since I have been doing frozen extractions, I started doing two quick rinses with the solvent and I would purge the solvent separate from a longer soaked third rinse. Since I started doing it this way, all the batches I have made the oil is so clean I can taste certain strains that were used. At first I thought a lot of the sweet flavor I was getting was from the PG USP that I used in making the e-cannabis oil and using plastic or glass clearomizers (vaping tanks). I have noticed now that the sweetness was coming from my strawberry cough strain. With newer batches of oil, without strawberry cough, they did not have the same sweet taste. With Qush, I could literally taste the Qush. The Strawberry Cough tastes fruity peach candy like. This has made me realize, at least for vaporizing purposes, it would be much better to make the RSO from each individual strain. Really, it should be like that anyway. Then you can mix your oil strains to whatever your preference is. The down side is that it will be a lot more difficult. I prefer to make larger batches of RSO, it is more wasteful making small batches.
Here are a couple of pictures from my last batch of oil. Using my methods, if you want your oil to come out really good, you MUST start with good buds. No cheating. Don't use 151 grain alcohol, don't use 91% isopropyl alcohol. Do it right, be patient. It comes out worth it in the end. Not in the mood to back read, here is a link to my RSO making experience.
