DIY dripping atty. Made out of a Kanger T3s!

[Nathan Hartwell]

So today I was tinkering with one of my T3s tanks and managed to break one (long story...)!

But every cloud has a silver lining and I managed to convert it to a dripping atty!


Its got crazy air flow, only downside is it can leak pretty easy... But that aint a big deal! it works great!!



For the most part its only a drip tip on the top of the atty! Somehow it fit perfect!

Ain't it great what you can do with spare parts? ;-)

Have a T3S that was starting to taste a little plastic'ee... absinthe and red apple was a bit too much for it.

Anyway... remembering this thread, I heated the metal until the glue loosened, pulled out the plastic, leaving pretty much what you have there Nathan... except I kept the tank metal threaded part, which was now a sort of collar.

Screwed the tank metal "collar" onto the base to act as a sort of juice well, cut about 30mm of 2mm cotton and put it on top of the original coil and wick, and wrapped it around the coil shield in a 'S' shape.

Makes a great open well RDA, "juice taste tester". With 6-8 drops, I can get about 12-14 hits off of it before it's time to drip again. Haven't figured out what to do with the top metal, drip tip and air tube... but the day is young.

Brilliant! Thanks for sharing! I just started looking around and found an old Ego cone from an old kit. It threads perfectly on to a Kanger Protank atty. Now, all I need is a custom drip tip... Cone gets a bit warmy during use.

Got a trend goin' here... econo, no, actually - free single coil RDAs - 'cause lets face it, if we didn't tear them apart and make something useful out of them, they were going in the trash. ;-)

It never fails to amaze me how inventive we are!

You don't happen to have a picture of this do you? Haha

Sorry... no camera. Just the guts of a T3S with the bottom metal of the tank screwed on to make a half-... short cup. Nothing amazin' to look at... kind of ugly actually.
In fact, right now I'm using the bottom metal as a beauty ring for my wife's eGo... same thread pitch as the base. ;-)
