so this is my first post and I currently have a Kanger pro tank II at 2.5 on the pure smoker prodigy with 18650 3.7 I work on a farm so I want something durable. I've been enjoying this tank but it can be a bit finicky and lately its been flooding and I'm not sure why. does anyone have any recommendations on something maybe better? I've been looking at rebuildable atomizers and rebuildable tanks. would that be a way to go?

I have used ProTank 3, iClear 30, and iClear 30S and would not recommend any of those for you.
I have not used the Aspire BDC, but from the trusted reviews I have seen, that might be your best bet.

Vivi Nova
I have a PT2 clone called a DAvide, and mine floods now and then...what I do is take the base off...and blow thru the bottom base at the coil. That little tube sticking out get's flooded sometimes after a refill.

Thank you, I have used carto tanks in the past for a long time but I kept breaking the cartos (they would bend at the connection in my pocket) wanted something more durable and my local vendor recommended the pro tank 2. I like it so far just wanting to know what would be better. but I'll check that out.
another thing is I don't care for silica wicks especially if I get a dry burn that's a horrible taste and I've seen where people have replace the wicks with cotton string. I've tried it but really haven't had much success so that why I was thinking about rebuildable tanks/atomizers
Then scratch the Aspire BDC too. It has silica wicks and they do not very friendly for rebuilding.
If you are looking for a VERY durable rebuildable, I'd go for a Kayfun Lite Plus. They are 304 stainless and you can drop them on concrete with no worries. They don't leak or flood at all! They are a bit pricey, but will last you forever. You can build them with cotton and micro coils very easily and they hold tons of juice that will last you all day while you are out working. If I was out on the farm all day, this would be what I'd take with me for sure. Happy vaping!
The connector between the tank and the battery device is always going to be the weak link with any setup, especially if you are going to carry your setup in a pocket.
Perhaps you can find a holster device that you can attach your PV to via a belt clip; ie a flashlight holster?
2nd Vivi Nova v2.5 it's durable doesn't tend to flood since top coil and easy to clean etc, very good for flavour obviously not a patch on RBA/RDA but your after something simple.
Also they sell replacement bases but to be honest it's pretty damn strong unit.
On burning wicks with proper set up it shouldn't be happening. Always prep your tank so with wicks I'll put some juice on them and then fill the tank settle for 5-10 minutes, vape another tank if your really needy for nic.

For farm work and using a pocket..... Yes the cartos will snap. Baditude is right about using a holster or tool pouch or something. Carto's are just so convenient.
I also will give a recomendation for the kayfun 3.1, Kayfun lite, Kayfun Lite plus, the Russian 91% or any of the clones of these. Fasttech has the cloned Kayfun 3.1 es for 22 bucks and has the rocket (russian built cheaply but works great) for 13 bucks.
BUT..... You have to learn to build a good coil yourself. After you have done two or three, you in like flint !!

since I got the pro tank ive been more mindful of it being in my pocket and I usually wear cargo pants which are a lil baggy. the holster is a good idea. I just watched how to build a kayfun 3.1 and seems rather intimidating. I might go with the vivi nova, I seem think how the wick is at the top wouldn't flood as how the pro tank wick is at the bottom.
