Aga-T3 Coming soon?

[pmar4015]

Just set my AGA-T3 up tonight for the first time. I have to say, I really like it.

Few questions though:

1. Have you guys been leaving the "fill-hole screw" in while you vape?

2. This thing I suspect works off of some type of vacuum system. Might be a stupid question, but when I try refilling and once the liquid exceeds a certain level (i.e. where the intake holes are) the liquid becomes forced out of the center wick hole. This occurrence makes refilling especially cumbersome (read: a pain in the ...). Does anyone know a work-around to the issue I am having?

Thanks

If you leave the screw out of the fill hole you won't be able to lay it down without it leaking and it might upset the pressure in tank. That screw is so tiny it's a PITA and could easily get lost. I'm using the plug from a condom cup in mine and it's working just fine. It makes filling a lot easier since I'm filling it 2 -3 times a day due to the small tank. Just trim both sides of the plug so you can get the top cap over it.

I had the same problem with juice coming out the airhole and solved that by using a smaller needle on my juice bottle. If the needle doesn't allow for air to escape then it come out the airhole.

I should add that I really like mine too but it's way too airy. That air hole is huge. It's like sucking on a straw. I had to cover half the hole with tape.

Thanks tmcase. Appreciate the feedback

How strange, even after using an extremely thin needle I still receive a vacuum effect during the filling process. It is so extreme that it makes filling the tank virtually impossible (the liquid is forced up and out of the center wick hole). Weird.... I will keep experimenting

A thin needle and a slow fill ought to solve that problem. I've ran into that with some of my gennys. I've also sucked air out of the tank with a syringe but I'm not sure if that helped or was unnecessary.

The smaller needle has helped me but I still can't fill the tank without juice coming out of the wick hole or the juice fill hole. It wouldn't be so bad if this had a bigger tank but it is so small I have to fill all the time.

Just now, I unscrewed the 510 connector (the screw with the flat-head screw slot) just a bit. It seems that this has helped to release some of the pressure in the tank, thus helping matters a bit.

I just tried this but it didn't help. I think I'm going to have to drill out the fill hole, make it bigger so air can escape.

That sounds like the best idea. I am going to do the same. I don't see the downside (maybe a bit more leaking)

I don't vape with it in anyways

Let me know how it goes and then I'll try it. Plugging the hole shouldn't be a problem with a condom cup plug in the fill hole. That's what I'm using now.

anyone care to share photo(s) of their build? tia
im wondering how the pos and neg leads are secured on this atty.

 

[muzichead]

I watched Todd's review of it and he showed how all the leads are secured in the video. Looks simple enough...

Thanks tmcase... I had the link copied, but forgot to paste!!! DOH!!!

the best way I have found to fill it is to slide a thin needle alongside the wick and let the air escape through the fill hole.

 

[pmar4015]

Equality....Brilliant idea!! I will give it a go!

Anyone seen this for less than $45?
I'd like to buy this and the UDT-V10 mod as a pair but
that's over $100.

I could buy another iHybrid Pure for about that much dough....and I like the looks of the
AGA-T3 together with the V10 a LOT.
But not for that much cash.....

Apologies if I'm beating a dead horsie.

I just saw it a week ago for like $30... I'll poke around and try to find it again...

edit... It was @ Litecig USA 2 weeks ago... Now they have it listed at $50... oh well...

Bugger. I can wait. Surely the price will drop at least a little bit.
