Kanger T2 Vs T3

[vapmex]

Ok I bought the Kanger T3 2 weeks ago after vaping T2s and Vivi Novas for around 2 months..... In my opinion the Kangers are better and more consistent than the Vivi Nova (maybe I didn't have luck with what I received)

Returning to the Kangers, is great that you don't get dry hits on the T3, but I miss the warm and moisty vapor of the T2, is it just me? I agree that the T3 delivers a harder TH and flavor is kind of the same to me but the T3 vapor reminds me the old stardust.

The Kangers have grown on me also. I still vape both the T2's and T3's daily.
The T2's have a slightly hotter vape and the T3's have more flavor. Vapor and TH are the same for me.
The wife also prefers the T3's and uses her Nova mini's as backups. I don't care for the Novas at all.

I'm also impressed with the lifespan of the Kangers.

I still haven't tried T3, they're on the way, but one thing I can say about T2. They're an astounding vape, far better than any Vivi Nova. I'll fill in the idea as soon as I get them.

Glad to hear someone to compare the T3, T2 and the Vivi. I have never tried the Vivi or the T3, but was thinking about trying both of them on my next order. May have to cancel the Vivi though, since the T2 has worked out so well. What is it about the Vivi that no one cares for, compared to the T2???

For me, the vision wicks are more like filters.
They wick the thinner parts of the juice first leaving the heavier particulates for the end. After a couple tanks, the remaining juice is really thick; has a lot less flavor and the taste is horrible.
After 3 fill ups, the wife dumps the last 1/3 of juice out; cleans and starts over.

The two lower ohm heads are the worst and even though the higher ohm head is better, it's still not that much better.

Another difference between T2 and T3 (at least for now) is that you can
get different ohm ratings in replacement heads for the T2. Nice if you like
to vape between 4 ~ 4.7 volts.

I actually got the T3 first and love it. Though you have to be careful on
a fully charged unregulated battery to make sure you're getting good
wick flow to avoid burning juice. With the suggestions I learned from
Skelley, that has not been a problem at all for me.

Thanks, Skelley!

Just got my first T2 this week and I've been giving it a run. Performs
about as well as the T3 with a slightly warmer vape. I just keep tipping
the PV to keep the wicks wet.

So now I'm off to find Skelley's tips on the T2... mainly about whether
to add a cotton flavor strand above the coiled wick. (Swapped to
cotton in the T3 and love the difference in flavor.)

There are two types of coils available for the T3 at the moment. I believe the low-resistance model is 1.8 ohms, while the standard is 2.5 ohms.

This happened to me with the Stardust. It lifted the PG and left the VG on the clearo.

The mini vivi I have doesn't do this, but I don't like it

thanks for the tips on the "flavor strands" I just pulled the top off my K3 and took a gander. The coil was MESSY. Looks like they just wrapped wire all willy nilly. Is there a way to further take these apart and put a new coil in? I just got some 2.0 coils in from avid vapor, and they would turn this thing in to a monster.

I tried the T3s, they're OK but I do get some dry hits now and then, I much prefer the T2s. Been using them for months now and I LOVE them! I agree that the Vivi mini wicks do seem to filter the lighter parts of the juice and leave the darker heavier stuff behind. That's why I hate the regular Vivi Nova, you end up with a giant vat of funkyness after a couple of fills.
As far as the T2 heads, I've replaced a few of them when they start to get slow to heat up. The coil seems to get like a hard shell around it. Seems to come from the darker juices and no amount of cleaning or dry burning will get rid of it. I clean the coils faithfully but at least for me, this hard residue on the coil is unavoidable.

Just received my T3 today! I still have to make up my mind. The T3 is less moist, that helps my bronchospasms. The 1.8 ohm heads on the T2 produce much more vapor than the T3... I'll leave final conclusions when I can get 1.8 ohm heads on the T3. Good thing about T3 is I fill them to the brim and don't get flooding!

 

[vapmex]

Sure thing!! good that you have the T3... for me both provides very good vape, the moisty and warmer vapor are definitely a miss on the T3 but the bottom coil counteracts some of the lacks of the T2.... try a higher voltage for the 2.5 ohms heads... for the T2 I use 2.0 Ohms heads which work perfect on a normal 3.7 battery... for the T3 I use 4.2 Volts and it improves the vape.

I have not been able to find 1.8 ohm heads for the T3. Can You put a link up?

Here is my observation on the T3, I ordered two vivi novas and one T3, I've never vaped either one before. I filled both with the same juice and volts. I was initially impressed with the T3, great flavor and plumes of smoke, on the other hand, the vivi was giving me more of a dry hit and harsh taste. It was a no brainer, however, a few hours later I started getting nasty dry hits from the T3, I tilted, re-installed it, added more juice, nothing helped, it just taseted nasty. On the other hand the vivi came alive and was now tasting and vaping great, and its been the same for 3 days now after 3 tank fills. Not sure what to make of it, did I get a bad T3? I really loved them the 1st few hours.

I always clean my new coils with hot water first. I think this helps a lot.

Hola amigo! I'm vaping a very light liquid, anything over 3.7 tastes burnt. Maybe the heads need breaking in, but I'll try with a darker liquid.

Just in case you haven't read, there's a fix for dry hits on T3: take off the top cap of silicone over the wicks and turn it upside down and reasemble. Let me know how it did.

 

[Dan Patrick]

I just did that. Seems to help. So has anyone taken off the flavor wicks that are on top of the coils? Seems like they might be clipped in half for better vapor? Kinda moved around the sides and down?

I simply removed them. The flavor is the same.
