![]() Note: Make sure to drip the eliquid along the wall of the tank, not into the central airflow tube. Holding the Aero Tank upside-down and at a slight angle, place the dripper of your bottle so that you can drip your eliquid into the tank. Next, grab a bottle of your chosen eliquid. Next, remove one of the atomizer heads from the tray and, holding it with the long side up and the short side down, screw it snugly into the base. Set the tank itself down on a clean, level surface. Next, turn the tank upside-down and unscrew the base of the tank. Once you’ve unboxed your new Aero Tank and removed the device from the gray plastic tray, you’ll want to remove the rubber condom from the mouthpiece. However, for those of you who are considering the Aero Tank as your first bottom coil clearomizer, I’m happy to walk you through this quick and easy process. If you’re already familiar with setting up a Protank or EVOD, there’s no reason you can’t skip right past this section. Setting up the Aero Tank should be familiar to anyone who has already done so with another bottom-coil clearomizer. It’s a solid, substantial piece of kit that should last you a good, long time. Overall, build quality is excellent on the Aero Tank. We’ll get to how that works out, performance-wise, shortly, but as far as build quality is concerned, the airflow adjustment ring was actually the component that impressed me least with its feel it felt light to the point of flimsiness, and it’s a fortunate thing that it’s integrated so well into the overall design, because I could imagine it failing in fairly short order otherwise. By rotating a knurled ring at the base of the Aero tank, the user can select a tight draw or a looser, more airy draw. I believe I can chalk the size difference up to the breakout feature on the Aero Tank and the inspiration for its name: Airflow control. Comparing the Aero Tank to a Protank II, I discover that the Aero Tank appears to be head and shoulders taller than the Protank, and its stainless steel parts give the appearance of being a fair bit beefier, although they have the same 2.5ml capacity. But that’s really where the visual similarity to its older cousin ends. The materials used - according to the description on the box, and I have no reason to doubt it - are stainless steel and pyrex glass, in keeping with the Protank line. I love that Kanger is thoughtful enough to provide this accessory with, I would have to guess, just about every full size clearomizer they sell I have to admit to worrying, though, that some future civilization is going to find the remnants of our own one day and conclude that Kanger beauty rings were our main form of currency… The first thing you’ll discover, on unboxing the Aero Tank, is a gray plastic tray housing the clearomizer itself along with two coil heads and the ubiquitous Kanger beauty ring. The Kanger Aero Tank, on the other hand, is the Comeback Kid of the Kanger lineup. ![]() Simply stated, Kanger had become a benchwarmer in my eyes, relegated to the dugout and called into rotation only when the big boys were played out and in need of a rest. The Protank II upped the game modestly but isn’t exactly a standout performer, either. The Protank Mini was more of the same, but with less eliquid capacity. The original Protank disappointed me with its airy draw, weak flavor, and less than satisfying throat hit. I have a history with the Protank, Protank II, and Mini Protank. Because what’s inside is so unlike the storied but underwhelming Protank it isn’t even funny. Sitting here looking at that box now, however, I think of it as camouflage. The nervousness didn’t abate much when I saw the packaging: the same understated black box with its silver accents and plain, no-nonsense description of t contents had me thinking of the Protank series. This afternoon, I’ve taken the wraps off something I’ve been looking forward to with a healthy mixture of anticipation and nervousness.
