Well mixed emotions on the T3 so far. The taste is ok, it has a little (new atty taste) to it. I'm hoping I can get used to using these they sure do look good on my mod.
Anyone try the new Kanger T3 yet?

I've tried 3 different clearos so far, the Kanger T3 was the worst of them. The Redux was best, but only after a lot of frustration before figuring out how to modify it, to make it work properly.
These work much like the BetterLifeTech CE3's as you should see air bubbles as you vape.
With my set up, I get them about every other vape. This is a indicator that everything is working good.
The T3 delivers flavor much like my CE3's and better than any top coil clearo. It is my goto device.
Everytime I open to fill:
Lift seal and fluff wicks; install atty base until it pushes seal down slightly and test vape.
I want it to gurgle, that way I can make my adjustments by continuing to snug slightly and test vaping until the flavor is on par with out gurgling.
It may take a few vapes to see if the gurgling stops with out loosing flavor.
If it doesn't stop, slightly snug and repeat.
This process only takes me about 1-2 min. tops and I'm usually rockin until next fill.
If I snug the seal to far, I remove base and start the process over.
Even if I repeat this step a few times, it still took me longer to type this post then it does to get it working great.

I love my cleaors, some more than others, but I prefer bottom coils over top coils any day.
I hate the 'tilt-2-vape' law and it feels like I have to dance for my vape. Swirl; twist; tilt; vape and repeat...ugh.
Top coils also wick the thinner parts of the juice first and leave the heavier particulates for the end.
This is evident as the juice gets a lot thicker near the bottom.
I have tested many by filling them 3X then pour the bottom juice into a atty.
It is always the same....unvapeable for me and I would just pour it out and start over. Of course, over a period of time, this process can waste a lot of juice.
I'm a tweaker, but I don't buy anything for my wife that needs modded.
I don't mind making 'tweaks' to devices. Tweaks are small adjustments that can be easily made to get devices working for each individuals vaping needs.
Until they make a device that has separate juice & air controls to meet everyones juice viscosity and vape pace, I feel tweaks are needed.
I refuse to buy devices that need major modifications to work as I feel these mods should have been done by the manufacturer, but that's just me.

I just refilled and I wanted to clearify my filling procedure.
Since I have the seal set where I want it, when I refilled, I just snugged it up to where the center tube barely touched the seal and stopped.
It helps to hold it up to a light or the monitor to make it easier to see the tube/seal area.
Back to vaping in 30 seconds or less

I got my T3 a week ago and has worked awesome right out of the package with no tweaking at all. Time will tell how long they will hold up.
Guys, one things I couldn't find any comments on the warmth of the vapor. How is the warmth compared to a vivi nova?

Well I dont have a vivi nova yet so I cant compare. The vapor cloud is so huge and thick my wife thought I was smoking those nasty cancer sticks when I first got it!
Being it a bottom coil, itll run a bit cooler than a Vivi Nova; theoretically. I use both (even as I type) and it almost seems negligible. Do you have a variable voltage?
Yes I do. Anything above 4.7 volts even on the 2.8 coil seems to burn the flavor on a vivi nova So I wanna see how these hold up to warmth and higher voltages.

I couldn't tell ya. On my eGO Twist, I've never had any juice go over 4.0 ever because after 4.0, it starts getting burnt juice. And that's with heads with high as 2.4 ohms. T2, T3, VN, all of em. I'm okay with a cooper vape tho.
I got a question for you guys and girls. I have 2 ego-c twists 1000mah and only one works on the Kanger T3. They both worked the first week but now only one does. I put my old excalibur v2 tank back on the non working battery and it works. I'm stumped why it stopped working on the T3?
First, if you have a multimeter, check the clearo for resistance.
No resistance = open circuit and it's blown.
Super low resistance = dead short.
Change head in both cases.
If resistance is on par, then it sounds like you need to pull your battery post.
Turn the batt off.
Use something small that will fit between the center post and outer connection and gently go around the post rocking it.
There are many youtube vids on this subject that will give you a good visual aid.

T3s seem fussy to me. My kgo vv batteries don't work with the T3s. Tried adjusting the posts but no go. They work OK with the T2s...
Thanks skelley, I have an old multimeter that I inherited but never have used. Thing looks to be 50 yrs old! What I dont get is the T3 worked on the battery but doesnt now and that same battery works with on my excalibur V2 tank. I will figure out the multimeter and get back to you.
The wife has used them on her KGO's; Super ego VV; L-Rider and a few other batts that she already gave away without any issues.
I use them on my 6 amp Beast w/ a sealed ego adapter w/o any issues also.
We don't have any issues w/ batts center post as I find the device that has the longer post and either adjust it or file it down.

Thanks for the help skelley you were right. It was the center post! I dropped the battery the other day(twice) and it must have brought the post down. I rocked it like you suggested and it now works on my T3!
Well had the T3's for a few days now, still mixed emotions. I love the huge clouds of vapor you get, I'm not crazy about the flavor. I like the flavor more on the T3's than I do on the vivi nova. Then I go back to the boge 3.0 with my fav tank and it just blows me away how much more flavor I get with the cardo. I'm not sure if it just because I'm so used to the cardo's or if it really is just that much better. I like the fact that there is little fuss and muss with these, I don't know what to do. I'm just one step closer to going crazy, lol.
I started out with tanked cartos and I know exactly what you mean wseternmd.
Once you figure out how many holes you need for your juice, I think they are the least hassle free vape device there is.
I also think that most of the flavor comes from drawing air across the juice in the filler as the longer I used the carto, the more flavor it seemed to develope.
I switched to clearos for one reason or another: hotter vape; cleaner taste; smaller form; portability; no filler taste; etc.
I've tried many CE2 style clearos. You name the version or revision and I've probably tried it.
For me, I think the clearo hunt is all about finding the best flavor and vapor with the least amount of fiddling to obtain consistency.
I think clearos are getting better, but as I've said before, until they make a device that has adjustable juice & air controls to meet everyones vaping needs that some fiddling is required.
I think that everyone has something different that they are looking for in clearos and personal preferences play a part in their choice.
For me it's flavor & vapor and my choices are the bottom coil CE3's & T3's.
Many top coils seem to mute flavor and filter juice. They are also a warmer vape.
So when I look for a top coil design, I'm looking for a device that filters the juice the least (gets thicker as vaped) while also delivering on my demand for flavor & vapor.
For this department, I like the Kanger T2's.
*As new devices are released, I reserve the right to change my choices
