A bit more expensive than the T2s. Replacement coils are $3.50 as well. I might just order a set without replacement coils just to see how long it lasts.

Skelley, would you be kind enough to keep this updated on how consistent your T3 unit gets? I still have some inconsistencies with my T2 sets and I'd happily pay a bit more for the T3s if they are consistent.

You rebuild them ,no problems.

Assuming you mean save the bad ones, maybe to play around with, or if they only last a day or two. But at $2.95 do you think it's really worth it?

Heck, these heads are $2.00 less than the ones for the Vision eGo V3 clearomizers. Such a value...

They are designed too be rebuilt.

Yeah, it is strange that the drip tip is permanent since it seems it would be so easy to make it removable. Probably to help keep the cost down.

However since the opening where the drip tip goes in is so big a regular size drip tip wouldn't fit anyway. Kanger could make their own replacement metal one or supply a sleeve to reduce the opening to standard size.

If it's the possibility of melting the tip, then I don't think you have to worry about that. There seems to be a metal sleeve inside the tip which the air tube goes through and the tube is slightly extended into the tip. Also with it being a bottom feed the vapor is probably a bit cooler than from a top feed.

If it's the feel of the tip then sorry, there's nothing I can do or say to help you there.

Personally I like the plastic tip. Don't know if I could stand a metal tip clanking against my teeth all day... :blink:

Agree,the metal tips can frezze to you lips if your vaping in really cold weather.

I get my T3's here Kanger T3 EgO Bottom Coil Clearomizer Tank System
Replacement heads here Kanger T3 EgO Bottom Coil Atomizer Heads
And I think a 510 to eGo Thread Adaptors selected from the drop down list should work on the Provari just fine.

Thanx 4 info. I have been using vivi novas @ work and a couple of zen~s which never leave the house. Been wanting 2 try these.
Only prob I have is the drip tip.

Doesn't look like there is any way around that.

Oh hai, from yadkinville.

I believe there are two reasons the drip tip is on permanently.

One, to prevent leaking between the tip and tank.
Two, if you look down into the opening of the drip tip the construction is such that it helps prevent liquid from getting in your mouth, which has been a rarity for me.

So, if you were able to replace their tip with one of your own it would defeat the above two reasons and reduce the superiority of the product.

I don't think those are valid reasons. Just look at the Vivi Nova; replaceable drip tip AND removable top cap, but no leaking what so ever. And I never get juice in my mouth with Vivi Nova, but on T3 I do almost daily when in use.

I think they just wanted to hold on to their T2 design, and wanted the product to look recognisable to all the drip tipped tanks out there.

I've been using these for awhile now and so far I've been mostly pleased. Good flavor and vapor. The heads seem to last well. The biggest negative I had a first was that half of the units I got wouldn't make contact on my Twists. In the four replacement heads I've bought since, none of them have had that issue.

I did find that filled units leaked horribly on my last plane trip. They were in my carry-on , fortunately in a sealed plastic bag. Maybe it was the reduced pressure, since the cabin still is still a lower pressure environment. They leaked on both the flight out and the return flight. I've never had issues with leaking carrying them around in my eGo case, though. Next time I travel with these, I'll be packing them empty.

i have heard this from others about the leaking on air planes.

they say ce3s also leak on them and traveling thru the mountains.

Yes that is true just flew too Houston and back and boy are my arms tired ha ha. Seriously I took 3 with me 2 in my carry on so I could stealth vape on the plane and 1 I put in my luggage. The one in my luggage leaked everywhere luckily I was thinking ahead and put it in a ziplock Baggie. The ones I brought in with me were ok a little gurggely just blew them out. I figure the cabin is pressurized and the cargo area is not no big deal when I flew back took all 3 up top with me no problems.
