First dud T3

[SteveI]

I'm a tad bummed. Just bad luck I guess. After only 2 fills, I got a "sloppy" T3 coil. The wick snagged when I screwed the coil into the T3, and I didn't know it until I took it off to refill. At first, I thought it was the loose flavor wicks, but once I got them off, I realized it was the wick with the coil... Nutz, there isn't enough wick on the other side for me to pull back with tweezers. It looks like a tassle on one end. RIP coil.

Stuff happens

The moral to this story is before screwing in the coil, do a visual check to make sure the wicks do not stick out on one side more than the other. Live and learn...

... and stock up on coils.

I'm a little too stocked up on stuff I think. I have CE3's that I haven't even used yet and have about 14 of them waiting to be refilled. Same with the Nanos. At least I am ready for the end of the world.

I know what you mean. Aside from needing to really stock up on T3 coils, HW wise, I am good to go. For juices, I am waiting for a vendor to get back online so I can dive into DIY. I figure about 1 liter for starters should get me going .

End of the world, or the FDA.... same difference.

I'm waiting for a certain vendor to get back on line too I like to DIY.

Well, I did a dumb thing yesterday. I filled up my T3 yesterday and put it on a battery that I knew would run out on me at the dog park. So without looking or thinking, I unscrewed it on the T3 side and spilled juice all over the kitchen! I had to wipe it up before my dog got to it! Oh how I hate to waste that much juice!

We all have those moments Steve!

Ouch...

On the bright side, I put a sample bottle of buttery nipple aside a while back. It was just too sweet and buttery in my CE3's. I'm low on juice at the moment, so I filled up a T3 with it. WOW, just slightly milder, but I went from hating it to loving it. It has been steeping for over a month too, so I guess I should enjoy it while I can... My taste buds might change their minds again soon.

EDIT: I've got a bunch of other sample bottles I set aside for the same reason... I think it's time to re-try them .

hey steveI....did you check out..the thread t3 cleaomizers bottom coil...questions and issues..theres a guy with pics on how to feed cotton balls..might be a go

I've noticed certain juices taste different from the cartos to the T3. I find that the T3 mellows some of my juices out to a nice flavor. I've got my favorites for each device now.

I hope I am not starting to get vaper mouth. I felt like I had licked about 5 feet of the pavement this afternoon. I started chugging water and chewing gum. I stopped vaping for awhile and changed flavors. I hope my tastebuds are starting to come alive and decided to fail me today!

I have done that one not once but three times. I guess I am a slow learner

 

[Tail11]

I usually give my full attention to my vaping equipment. I was trying to do a couple things at the same time and paid the price. Lesson learned, but I'm sure there will be more!

I finally got the post out of my first T3 today.. I was attempting to dry burn it after a good cleaning since I thought maybe it wasn't firing anymore and didn't get a red glow.. finally got a pliers out to hold the post and got that sucker out without squashing it. I guess my hands just are not strong enough to do that task.
Anyway.. being my first glimpse of the coil guts ever.. I went ahead and picked the burnt wicks up... guess what.. wick and wire stuck together.. I guess I uncoiled the coil.. yep.. dead.
