I'm running two T3's, one on a provari with the adapter and one on a twist, there is definitely a difference in performance. T3 on vari is a much tighter draw, on twist it's much more of an airy draw. T3 performing well on both but definitely a different feel to them. I've come to the conclusion after trying all kinds of tricks that removing one wick and leaving the seal alone is the best way to go, no gurgle or leaking, no dry hits.
Hm, just faced an odd problem with one of my T3's. I refilled it and vaped it for a while, then filled one of my other T3s. Then when I looked back at my first one, all of the juice was gone and I thought to myself "Didn't I just refill it?" Well, apparently it dumped out through the mouthpiece, and no, I did not pour all my juice into the tube when I filled it. I don't know why it was dumping all the juice out, I replaced the head and it seems to be okay now but still... weird. Made me waste a bit of juice too.
I've had that happen before and never did figure out why. I refilled it and it worked fine.
I can't argue with the fact that the adapter you are using might cause flooding, but what I do know is that it is not because of a "vacuum" created by tightening down the adapter. The coil area has the exact same air pressure as the surrounding air, unless you cover both the top hole in the mouthpiece, and the air holes in the bottom.
When you drag a vape, the pressure will ofcourse lower a bit, and that happens with everything you take a drag on.
It is possible that the adapter you are using doesn't let air through properly, which might end up sucking too much juice from the tank when you take a strong drag. But still, it's not tightening the adapter in place that creates the low pressure, it is the drag you take.
Doing a SS wick on a bottom coil is difficult. A bottom coil is extremely sensitive to the replacement air resistance, so a hard material like SS will have to be made just exactly right not to flood. The top of the wick route is flat, so the wick can't be round or it will leak badly. Perhaps a SS wick with 1-2 silica flavor wicks could work well. I used a lot of time trying to get an SS wick work on a CE3, but it never lived up to my standards. The fact that SS mesh wicks so well might also cause flooding in time even if you get the fitting right.
My 510 to eGo adapters are not sealed, but I did seal the other one since the T3 can be a bit leaky at times. Easier to clean just the adapter instead of both the adapter and the battery connector. I used a metal rod that I pressed together to fit the inner part of the adapter.
I've also had bad leaks after refill. Seems that if I wipe the head dry, blow the remaining liquids through it, and then blow the insiders of the tank air tube to a tissue holding the tank upside down, I don't get leaks after filling. I guess there is just so much liquid all over after vaping a full tank. Coming to think of it, it does fit almost twice the liquid compared to my Vivi Nova Minis.
Still new at these things. Is removing the flavor wick supposed to help with VG juice? Secondary question: what's the flavor wick and how do I remove it? Thanks!
Take the bottom coil off the tank, then the metal tube the the silicone cup is on. Wiggle it back and forth as you pull on it to get it off, but do so carefully so you don't end up yanking too hard and send the flavor wicks flying. Underneath are 2, thin, ~1mm wicks, which are the flavor wicks. Under these is the normal coil and wick.
Cool! So I should just pull out one of them and it should be better with VG juice?
Yes. But keep the wick in case you need it later. Some liquids have required removing both flavor wicks.
I've removed all the flavor wicks out of my original heads and kept the wicks in my newer heads. I didn't keep the wicks because they kind of turned into a small ball of fabric mush after they got wet from cleaning. Honestly, I cannot tell the difference between the ones that have them removed and the ones that don't. If I were to decide to replace them one day, I can just use cotton wicks from any store or what? Where can I find these wicks?
Got a link? The 5 different places I've ordered them from send me identical non sealed ones.
Could prolly just use a small piece of cotton ball, gauze, etc. Just twist it up to about the same diameter and set it in place, and trim to length. Be careful tho, I don't think you'll be able to do a dry burn at that point tho, without torching the cotton. Easy enough tho, to just remove the old cotton ones, dry burn, and replace with new cotton.
After cleaning my T3 for the first time, I experienced leaking out of the bottom hole onto my battery. Quite a bit. After dealing with this for a couple of days, I pulled it back apart and replaced the 'flavor' strands with 1 piece of 3mm silica wicking. No more leaks and no dry hits. It may be that there isn't enough wicking there to prevent the juice from leaking by.
So , i'm getting sick of constantly recharcging my 510 cig-alike batts so it's time to move up .
I'm looking for something very easy to use and am leaning towards an ego VV and the Kanger t3's .
I use about 2ml liquid/day
Is this my "best" choice ? T I A

By "ego vv" I assume you are referring to the eGo Twist? Yes this would be as good a combination as any. As always, YMMV.
thats a very good choice,,2mls in a day you should be able to make it all day with just 65o mah batts ??
The T3s are pretty good, I like them over the T2s for purely the bottom coil aspect, no more tip and swirl. Flavor is pretty good too, have to reserve further opinion as I have not had to change the bottom coil yet (~two weeks of semi-constant use).
