The Cerakoat Coil System
Although the Horizon Cerakoat Ceramic Tank outputs substantial amount of vapor when used as a Direct Lung tank, it’s really aimed at users wanting a tremendous flavor tank. The first time filling the tank and vaping with it the flavor isn’t much to brag about. As the day wore on the flavor in my Vape Dudes Bananas Foster began to come alive.
Why it Took So Long to Decide ON Cerakoat
Because I was faced with reviewing and using several tanks during the 3 weeks I used the Cerakoat, there were times I would set it down with a full tank for more than a day. Coming back to the tank, the initial bare-bones flavor would stick around for up to 30 minutes before giving way to the porous nature of the ceramic coil.
Conclusion
If you’re interested in a super flavor tank, the Horizon Cerakoat would fit the bill nicely, IF you use the tank regularly, and if you don’t mind an unusually long break in period. Lastly, the Cerakoat Ceramic Tank is not meant for Temperature Control modes, so be sure you are content with using it in Variable Wattage mode.
