The SnailTank v2 incorporates all the advantages of the groundbreaking v1, plus some more…
Like its predecessor, it consists of two main parts, a tank section and an adapter (base), plus some extra custom silicon gaskets. The tank section, the adapter part and all the silicon gaskets (obviously except for the new refill cover) are cross-compatible with both the v1 components plus the VapeSnail parts. This offers a lot of potential to the owners of the SnailTank v1 and the VapeSnail, either for maintenance or as upgrade / accessory options.
The SnailTank v2 can be refilled through through two different holes, either the usual front hole or an alternative, identically sized hole on the side of the tank. The carefully designed refill cover can be easily removed from either hole you choose to use for topping up, while the part that covers the other hole serves as a stable anchoring point. It allows access to the RBA deck even when almost full with juice, any time, in the case of VapeShell and all bridges with a similar collaboration between chimney and deck (non-threaded, not extra tight via o-ring intervention between the two parts). Last but not least, it features a Chimney Gasket, which is added on the top side of the tank section to adjust the hole to the diameter of Boro standard bridge chimneys and offer some extra advantages. Among other things, it seals with the AIO 510 nut, even if you remove the sealing oring that most nuts or hybrid drip tips have.
This eliminates two issues:
1. The usual pain when the chimney of the bridge is automatically lifted up while unscrewing the nut / hybrid drip tip
2. The bad sealing that most hybrid drip tips present, either because of normal tear and wear, or due to bad choice of orings (or even no presence of orings at all)
It is advised to remove the hybrid drip tip oring or the 510 nut oring to enjoy the best out of the SnailTank.
Due to its design, the SnailTank v2 is compatible with most bridges, RBAs and condensation plugs that are designed for the Boro tank, also fitting inside the overwhelming majority of Boro compatible AIOs out there.
Please note that its pyramid-like shape due to the unavoidable draft angle of the molding process, made the tank a bit less spacey. For this reason, very large RBAs (indicatively Haku Xeta, SVT Crossbow, Hellfire Exocet v2) are expected to fit with zero tolerance inside the SnailTank v2. This won’t affect functionality but might leave a friction mark on the inner walls of the tank after insertion / removal of these large RBAs. The inner walls minimum width of the tank section is 13.70mm, so any RBA with smaller width than that will fit fine.
The SnailTank v2 is made of a special medical grade co-polymer plastic called PCTG. It’s the same plastic that is used for approved baby bottles and medical appliances, FDA approved, totally safe, as it is BPA free and 100% resistant against cracker liquids (citrus, menthol etc.) unlike other plastics (PCTE, polycarbonate, plexi glass etc.).
It is available in clear and four unique color versions (Smoked Black, Electric Blue, Ultem Yellow and Fuchsia).
Each SnailTank v2 comes with two sets of silicon gaskets / o-rings. A black one, preinstalled on all devices, and a clear one which comes as a spare.
