Vaporesso has become a household name in the vaping world and almost every vaper knows about this brand. What makes these guys stand out in a market that is rather competitive is their ability to manufacture some the most innovative mods of our time such as their popular release, the Armour Pro and Polar kit. The same can be said about their sub-ohm tanks which many vapers have found to offer superior lifespan when it comes to coils and performance in comparison to other brands. The Skrr Sub-Ohm Tank is the latest “flagship” Sub-Ohm Tank from Vaporesso, which features an 8mL juice capacity as well as their newly developed QF coil system and coil heads.

What’s in the box:
Packaging:
Vaporesso has been known for their exquisite packaging design. You can tell that Vaporesso does spend some time with packaging design as this tank comes securely packed in a beautifully designed box which opens like a jewelry box. Inside the box you will find the Skrr tank sitting in its compartment alongside an additional drip tip. In the lower section of the box you will find the accessories that come with the tank.
Design:
The first thing you’ll notice with this tank is that it’s quite big measuring just short of 6cm in height with a 30mm diameter and looks similar to their NRG Tank with a few changes. If you’re wondering, this tank is taller than their previous tank, the Cascade which came with their newer kits and is even taller than the Augvape iNtake RTA. Due to it being a 30mm tank, you’ll probably need to make sure your current mod can handle the wider than normal tank diameter without overhang.
Starting at the drip tip, Vaporesso includes an 810 Resin Drip Tip in a colour scheme that matches perfectly with the 8 different colour options of the tank such as Green, Red, Black, SS, Blue, Bronze, Rainbow and Gold. This drip tip screws onto the tank and doubles as a top-fill locking mechanism which is a nice feature to have on a sub-ohm tank especially since it caters for the new vaper. As most of you might know, if your top fill isn’t closed properly, you do run the risk of the tank dumping all the juice because of the vacuum seal which is broken. By implementing the locking mechanism, your tank must be fully closed and therefore it leaves less room for user error. The locking feature is also a nice child-proof feature to have. This does make the filling process a bit more tedious as you would now need to unscrew the drip tip before refilling your tank. That said, you can swap out the standard 810 drip tips with your own preferred 810 drip tip but then you will not have the top-fill locking feature and some 810’s may not fit snug. Another thing to note is that you cannot use a 510 Drip tip with this tank as it has no adapter to cater for 510 drip tips.
The top filling on this tank works flawlessly. If you have their drip tip on, you will first need to unscrew the drip tip before you can use their convenient ‘Slide-n-Fill’ top fill design.
I have the EU Edition and therefore instead of getting a replacement glass, I had a double walled glass. This does make it thicker and more durable than normal glasses. I’m not sure why a spare glass isn’t included but I guess it has something to do with TPD Regulations. I may be wrong though.
Coils:
Moving onto the main attraction, the coil head. Vaporesso launched a new line of coils for this tank called the QF Coils and currently, there are 3 options to choose from:
QF Airflow and Coil System:
The coils are designed to prevent leaking and spit-back due to the QF Coils bullet shaped design, and they do an excellent job at this. No matter what I did, this tank never leaked. Even when travelling, refilling, or over-priming on purpose, not a single drop of liquid leaked out and even when heavily saturated, it still didn’t spit. The trapezoid shaped airflow inlets do allow for a lot of air to be taken in, but I have found it to be quite noisy. The noise just gets worse as you close off the airflow more.
The QF Coil system works as follows, air enters through the trapezoid shaped airflow at the base of the tank and then the air enters the inner positive post (Gold Post/Pin) located at the center of the coil head which has airflow holes at the top of the pin/post. The air is then directed horizontally towards the surface of the mesh coil. Any liquid that would’ve leaked out would now fall back down onto the base of the coil and then get re-absorbed by the cotton (The Gold Post in the coil has airflow holes at the top so that juice cannot enter those holes and leak out).
The Skrr tank is a well designed, almost perfect product from Vaporesso and lives up to its claims of being leak-proof and spit back resistant by implementing the new QF Coil system however, this innovation is also its Achilles heel as it comes at a price of sacrificing flavor.
