the t3s coils will fit the protank 2 and 3, these aerotanks Kangertech Aerotank 2, Aerotank Mini, Aerotank Mega, Aerotank Giant, the emow.. i'm sure there's more.
The thing is.. the t3s coils are a bit longer at the base of the coil than the ones made for the clearomizers mentioned above. Not a problem though, they still work flawless. If you don't mind a really tight draw and don't use tank-cracking juices the t3s is the best fit of course and a decent atty.
Though the whole system is quite outdated by now.

NO.....T3 coils don't fit into the protanks, there is a space ontop the silicone cap that will leak. The flange on the Protank heads is a ioda wider than the T3 heads. There is kinda of a fix of flipping a 2nd silicone cap upside down, it does work but you will cut through the upside down cap in time. T3 coils were getting harder to find when I shelved my T3's ages ago so I can imagine them being really hard to get now. Your best bet is to rebuild those T3 heads
Here's a couple pics of the T3 with a protank head in it and the flipped cap.

Nah brah, the question was what other atties will accomodate the t3s coils, not whether protank heads fit the t3s.
I would still like to maintain that the t3s coils fit the tanks i mentioned above, although the atty-cap doesn'tscrew down all the way. No leaks or issues though. I tried this:thumb:

Anyways... if you don't have an atty that fits these coils... don't buy one.
There's much better systems around nowadays.

EDIT: Or not.. my bad. I guess i misread the OP's post. sorry. Actually i'm squinting my eyes and i still don't quite get it.

They are coils that look just like the protank 2 /evod/mt3 But the chimney is to fat to fit in to the clearo. Wonder what these are for

Same size base. The chimney on top of coil is to fat an won't fit into any clearo I have. I can take chimney off an use a different one on it.Wonder why or what they are for

Hmm, okay. To be clear: What model atomizer do you intend to use the coils with?

So these coils have a protankish design.
When you say chimney, you mean the top part of the coil, the small tube, right?
And that doesn't fit the larger tube on the cap of the atty, because it is too wide?
That doesn't sound familiar to me.

If you could post a picture of the coils, i'm pretty sure I or somebody else can identify them.

Weird stuff, I know EVOD BCC won't fit TS3 but not because it's to fat. That's the only coil I know of that looks the same. Maybe EVOD BCC's? Your GS-H3 says it takes BDC and MT3 takes EVOD so it should work in one at least. Guess just replace the chimneys with your old ones, they pop right off.
