Kanger Subtank Nano Pyrex Glass removal

[faithlv]

Hello guys, yesterday my Kanger Subtank Nano glass cracked, and I want to change it with the replacement one which came in the box. But I can't find a way to remove the glass, any thoughts?

I'd put on a pair of gloves or hold onto it with a towel and take it off over a trash can.

If it's cracked, it could very well shatter once you pull it away from the seal. You'll have to twist it to get it off.

Unscrew the base like your changing a coil, put on a glove and slide the glass off the red o-rings... Slide on your new glass, fill the tank, screw the base with the coil installed and that's it..hope this helped☺

The Nano actually has a 2 part center section. You have to unscrew the 2 halves apart to pull the glass. The coil base is separate.

The gloves are a good idea. It's going to be tight if you've never pulled it apart. The glass will shatter if it's cracked.

Okay, thanks, will try that.

I had the same issue with my Mini. And it seems that some come off of the production line with very tight fits.

Try soaking in hot water and then gently twist the glass while pulling it off.

And gloves are a great idea as well.

If you resort to pliers, you are going to destroy the tank section as the metal "Cage" is very flimsy.

yes if you bend that metal u shaped thing inside then the coils get stuck on it constantly when trying to refill. took me 10 tries to reshape mine so that doesnt happen any more

T, you look pretty hot in your kitchen!

 

[Teresa P]

Ooo, thank you, D! Lookin' pretty fine in yours too, I see! Are you makin sammiches for the "guys" too? Or your famous arsenic muffins?

 

[Daintanee]

Lmao. No, I am in the living room now filling up the kiddie pool with jello for when you get here.

 

[NGAHaze]

I'd suggest passing on the muffins but I bet a pulled pork sandwich would be pretty good!

 

[Teresa P]

I'm so excited!

 

[Daintanee]

Oh goody!! Clap, clap! High pitched girly squeal.

 

[Daintanee]

You want me to whip that right up for you, sugar? Or are you Leary of my special ingredients?

 

[Mattp169]

[Daintanee]

My sammiches are so good too. They seem to go right through your system mighty fast due to my secret ingredient. You say you want 2, honey?

 

[Mattp169]

[Daintanee]

Oh me, ain't none of us right.

 

[Mattp169]

Make sure you're aware of our definitions of "pull" and "pork" before you volunteer for anything....
