You can get it cheaper than that ! It's a good tank. You need a pretty good mod to get it at it's best. Good Luck !

I have both the 150w IPV3 and 100w IPV4...currently running the Herkales and an RDA..boys at the vape shop were saying how much better the Maganus is compared to the Herkales..but I wanted hear what other folks thought about it first. Thanks for your reply :)

The Maganus is the same as the Freemax Starre. I loved the tank mostly because of the increased capacity over the Herakles. Then I broke the base with just normal handling. Tried pushing it back together even using a vise but it won't stay. Bought a second and broke the glass the first time I opened it to fill. They come with replacement glass so I tried to replace it and broke that one too, as well as the spare that came with the first one. So I took the top from my first one and put it on the base for the second one. It works great but the issues I experienced aren't isolated. A ton of people are having similar issues. The tank works great but it is fragile. If you want to try the Maganus/Starre, buy a coil for one and put it in your Herakles. It fits and that is what I have been doing as I prefer the Starre .2 to the Herakles .2 ohm coil. If you are using the .6 ohm Herakles coils I would stick with them as I prefer them to the Starre .5 coils.

Keep in mind this is the first and only tank I have ever broken that I didn't drop on asphalt. And I think I have tried them all. If you want a bigger sub ohm tank I would try the Crown from Uwell. Top filling and in my opinion the best designed sub ohm tank so far.

@smacksy check out this thread. Lots of info on this tank. Even you thought it was great.

What? You sayin the Starre and Maganus are the same tank?
Yes, I did like the Starre at one time till it started leaking...Gasket in the bottom glass leaked juice down the side of my mod, awful mess when I woke up the next morning and was lucky it didn't hurt the chip...
I shit-canned the Starre and have a couple Herkakes tanks at the moment..
But indeed if the Maganus is designed like the Starre I won't waste my money
getting one....thx for pointing this out to me @nodor

Yep, same tank, same manufacturer. Different whole sellers.

Get an Arctic. Been using mine for 3 months, no leaks, it puts out nice juicy clouds with a .2ohm coil.

@smacksy no problem. I was surprised to hear of your problems with this tank. I have been using this tank since it came out. I've never had a leak. Been the best non rebuildable tank I've ever owned. I have never been able to separate the glass from the bottom piece. So maybe thats why I've not had problems. Different strokes for different folks I guess. If mine broke or got lost I would buy another without hesitation.

You might have something there as I took mine apart a few times to wash it out when changing flavors...I might have nicked that thin white gasket maybe and I definitely didn't like how it sat on the rim of the glass..most other tanks have the gasket seated in the end caps...in fact I noticed a small gap between the glass and base when it was brand new . @The Vaping Devil confirmed his had the same gap when I asked him about it....he had to look closely but indeed he had the same gap...said he never noticed it before...
Yes the Starre does come apart by unscrewing the base just like most other tanks...I had to run mine under hot tap water first but it finally came apart...

I also hear the starre is coming out with Starre pro. Not sure of what the upgrade is but I hear it's with nickel coils for temp control as well. Hopefully they fix the base too

Try the High Voltage tank by High Voltage ! I have 3 of them and that's all I use. Awesome flavor and huge clouds. Extremely well built but only comes in .2 coils. The sister tank the Matrix by High Voltage is awesome also. Holds more juice and has .2 and .6 coils but isn't as solid as the High Voltage. But I have had zero problems with that also.
