This is exactly the same problem I'm having and why the thread was created. So you see a difference in the T3s then?
I ordered two [supposedly genuine] T3's and two replacement heads from a reputable ECF vendor - one of them fits my [genuine] Joyetech eGo batteries nicely, the other 3 have a gap at the bottom...the thickness of the gap is approximately the same height as one of the inner threads. I saw this picture and looked at the inside threading of my T3's and sure enough! The one that plays nicely has a different thread pattern - albeit slightly - from the others. *sigh*
Any suggestions on how to make these work? They do fire, but it really does suck in a ton of air.
I have joyetech eGo-c regular and twists (old and new) and don't have the problem. It looks like there is a difference in the T3 threading. It's never been Kanger's strong suit, even on the K8 batt. The threading of the T2's mouthpieces was crunchy at best.
I wonder why the threading in my ego c twist is different than the threading in my ego t then. (picture on first page) 5 vs 7
Wayne at heaven gifts said Joye has 5 on the t's and 7 on the c's but there has been no change in either - that's how it's always been. And the T3's fit on all my Joye eGo's earlier than the t's, the t's and the c's. Do you have the C logo on the bottom of your Twists? If so they are Joyes, if not they're knockoffs.
There's a C on the bottom of my twist with 3 separate lines insinuating it's twisting, lol. I wonder if it's the new T3s that were purchased then. I see a lot of posts where people are noticing issues with theirs. How recently have you purchased your T3s, Kent?
I've had them from the start from heaven gifts - months ago... and also bought some at Good Prophets - maybe 3 weeks ago. Recently got more T3's and the MT's from hg. So far all fit. If you have the C with the hash marks inside, then that's a Joye - well... as far as I know the knockoffs haven't been putting that on yet. And I'm certain that heaven gifts deal only with Joyetech on batts or anything eGo - part of the contract, I'm guessing.
My Spinner looks like the one on the left, my Twist looks like the one on the right. Like others are reporting in this thread some of my T3 replacement coils wouldn't fit the whole way on to my Twist, which made me sad. Luckily they all fit on my Spinner with no problems.
It's so close to being able to screw on the Twist. Makes me wish I had a little o-ring to close the gap.

Absolutely! Don't get me wrong, I love the T3 BUT there is a huge difference between the one on the left which was purchased from one vendor and the two on the right which were purchased from another vendor.
I have one Ego twist that will not work with my T3's. I got 2 at the same time and one works fine with them and the other just doesn't work at all, won't even fire. Seems like it is not able to screw down all the way. Not sure if I got a knock off or what.
I don't think you can limit this issue to certain vendors, tho, because the ones I got (1 fits the way it should, 3 don't) all came from the same vendor.
Probably different lot numbers. At these prices I would be amazed if the manufacturing process would hold to exact specs from run to run.
True. I was just very surprised at the threading difference BUT, like you said at these prices I'm sure they are not holding to exact specs!
As I posted in the other thread about this problem, the 510 to eGo adapters work. I purchased some and screwed them on my eGo batteries (two genuine, one knockoff), and voila. Now my T3s work on everything. It's great!
Noctoru, Eric from Discount Vapers threw one in with my order for the USB VV Passthrough just in case I needed it! SO grateful that he did this for me, a totally new vaper, IT IS THE SOLUTION to the threading problem!!! It's giving me a perfect seal. I don't feel like I am sucking in air!!!
