I ordered it from the cheapest place I could find, cause most dealers wanted $6.99 for it, plus like $8-$10 for 5 replacement cartos, but then I found a place called "Stormy's vapor Cellar" who only wants $5.49 for the Kanger T2 and only $6.99 for 5 replacement cartos. But it took over a week to get here from NC because of slow USPS service.

So I watch a tutorial video on how to get it going, and all you gotta do is remove the top, fill the tank, screw the top back on, and vape! So simple, no priming or anything. I did decide to let it sit for a few minutes after filling it even though the tutorials didnt say you have to do so. This is because I got a clearo with my Torpedo VVV kit called the Torpedo clearomizer, and its got long wicks and holds like 3ml or whatever, so I fill it twice, let it sit, then vape it and all I get is burnt cotton flavor! So I Let it sit some more, and flip it over and around to wet the wicks, which were fully wet already, then tried it again, and still burnt cotton. Then I tried priming it, which isnt even mentioned, and for 2 hits it worked, then the juice I primed it with dried up and it was back to burnt cotton! Went through that twice... Gave up on it!

So this kanger T2 with its stock 1.8ohm cartos gives very good hits on my Ego-T, right from the start. No burnt taste or anything. However, even though it does give nice hits quickly without having to suck on it for 8-10 seconds, the flavor is actually muted, and I dont taste the full range of top notes in my tobacco blend with it. I did taste them in the standard Ego-T atomizer though, even though it didnt give as big a hit as this does. The throat hit on this can be bigger and quicker to acquire. I also tried my other all day vape, Peachberry from Delaware Vapors, and its even more muted, even though the hit is kinda big.

Maybe this wont be the case with all flavors and all e-liquids out there, but it is with these 2 I've tried so far. I do like the easy big hits it gives though. The replacement cartos I bought with it are 2.2ohm, so I hope I still get good hits with them as I do with the Kanger 1.8ohm carto that came with it, and maybe I'll get better flavor with them...

Is it common to lose some flavor with certain cartos/clearos/tanks that you taste fully on other cartos/atty's, even though you get bigger hits? Whats your favorite system for best overall flavor?

The T2 does seem to mute flavors, a bit, for me. 1.8 head with voltage set 4.0 to 4.4. The Stardust, not so much.

You have a very low res version. That'll do it. With them, I can taste fruit flavors fine, but anything like caramel, tobacco, etc...nope.

I suggest hooking them up to a Twist VV :) The best flavor I've gotten is a low res Stardust, with the Twist around 4.2 volts. Caramel popcorn from Tasty Vapor. Awesome.

I'm still a fan of the EMDCC. It lets all the flavors come through, works with no fuss, looks ridiculous on the end of my Twist, but the carts don't last long.
