UNICIG are one of the leading electronic cigarette manufacturer and wholesaler in ShenZhen China, since 2008 they have been dedicated to bringing innovative products through their designs.

Starting with the Mutation X V4 RDA, I’ve always had a liking for UNICCIG products.
So today we are going to take a quick look at the Hera Tank, a little 2ml stock coil tank, will this tank live up to such a lustrous name and be as hard hitting as her Greek name sake?

Design and Build Quality
The Indulgence Hera Tank is built entirely from stainless steel and Pyrex with a 2ml (TPD ready) capacity.
The Tank has a wide bore Delrin drip-tip supplied, the quality of this item is excellent as is the design.
As would be expected from UNICIG, all threads are smooth and work well.
The tank was squeaky clean with no machine oil residue.
How to Fill the Indulgence Hera Tank & Change The Coil
- You will have to empty the Hera Tank before changing coils
- Remove the top cap and drip-tip discard any liquid
- Remove the Pyrex glass tank
- Remove your spent coil by unscrewing the coil from the base
- Properly pre wick your new coil by dripping liquid onto the cotton through the top of the coil and through the liquid intake holes on the sides of the coil
- Replace the new coil into the base replace the Pyrex glass
- Fill the Hera tank by placing your bottles needle nose or dripping Pipette on the inside of the glass tank up against your coil
- Replace the top cap and driptip
- Leave the Hera Tank for at least 5 minutes so the cotton has chance to soak up more liquid
It is recommended by me, that before you fire the Hera Tank for the first time you perform a dry pull.
This is done by closing off the airflow completely and your taking 2 or 3 sharp pulls without firing. Then open the airflow vape away.
How Does The Hera Tank Perform?
The Hera Tank disassembles into 5 parts for easy cleaning
- Airflow base
- Preinstalled 0.4ohm coil head
- Pyrex 2ml glass tank
- Top cap
- Delrin driptip
The Airflow and base
Measuring 22mm the base holds your coil and has a cylon style, single action adjustable bottom airflow, the 510 connection pin is made of gold plated stainless steel.
The Tank
Sits over the coil and is connected to the base via O Rings.
The tank for the Hera is made of Pyrex glass and holds 2ml of liquid!
The Top Cap
Screws into the coil completing the tank, the top cap can take a 510 drip-tip as well as the supplied wide bore driptip.
This tank was tested using an 80/20 high VG called liquid Lava Juice from TMB Notes.
Tested at 40, 50 and 60 watts I found both the flavour and the quality of vapour to be excellent with this tank.
At 40W using mouth to lung style of vaping with the airflow set at half, the flavour was unsurpassed, in fact it was the best flavour I’ve ever had from mouth to lung style of vaping.
Pumping the wattage up to 60 watts in increments of 5w, with airflow fully open and using straight to lung vaping style I lost no flavour at all.
The resulting vapour was thick and creamy. The Indulgence Hera Tank does get a little warm when chain vaping but soon cools down.

What I Like
I like the fact that this is a no nonsense tank – plug your coil in, fill and away you go!
Even at a low wattage 40w the flavour and vapour I experienced was excellent, no dry hits when pushed up to 60 watts even with a high VG liquid.
In fact I feel that the 0.4 coil could easily handle 10 more watts
What I Didn’t Like
It is a little frustrating that the liquid capacity is only 2ml! But being the climate with the TPD I accept this slight limitation and move on.
Only one really frustrating thing I don’t like about this tank – make sure when you screw your coil into the base it is tight and don’t over tighten the top cap or your coil will unscrew when the time comes to re fill your e-liquid.
Final Review Verdict
I love the little Indulgence Hera Tank! So much so it has already entered my daily rotation.
It’s simple to use no nonsense tank. I would say that the Hera Tank fully lives up to its goddess name sake.
For those of you that are looking for a flavour tank that will also deliver a good amount of vapour, or are new to vaping looking for your next tank you wouldn’t go far wrong in choosing the Hera Tank.
Would I buy this tank again if I lost or damaged it?
It goes without saying that the answer would be a big fat yes.
Pros
- The build quality of this tank is excellent
- The tank is very easy to setup and easy to use
- The flavour is excellent with no loss at higher wattages
- Juice wicking is excellent with high VG liquids
Cons
- Frustratingly small 2ml tank, but not a deal breaker
- The coil can easily undo if not tightened enough into the base
