Kanger T3 flooding and leaking on multiple new heads.

[Kahuna Cowboy]

Howdy,

I have had a Kanger T3 for a little while, and I loved it. But this past weekend I was out and about and it was flooded, then it was leaking fluid all over my hand. Figured the head blew and replaced it when I got home and the new head did the same thing within minutes. Changed out the head again (all were 2.4ohm) and again same thing. I changed out the battery and same thing on that too even after turning the voltage down to a meager 3 volts. I ran through an entire 5 pack of heads and they all did this. I pitched the entire tank after that.

Before I buy another can anyone speculate what happened here?

Thanks in advance!

I had one crack along the top of the tank where it meets the metal ring under the mouth piece. You couldn't even see it but it was enough to allow air into the tank which broke the seal letting all the juice start to leak out. I would have never found it if it wasnt also leaking juice there when turned upside down. I assume it broke when I dropped it. If I ever get a mod its gona have to be made by nerf.

I'd agree that the tank is damaged in some way. I've not had any luck with my T3, pretty much the same issue - leaking like a sonofa. If you liked the vape, you might want to try the EVOD - similar setup but I've had none of the leaking issues.

Hmm makes me wonder now. I have seen a few posts of users complaining about leaking kanger T3's. Mine don't leak unless I run them too low. Maybe those that complain of leaking T3's have a bad seal??

There could be a crack not visible to the eye, but how would that flood the head?

The tank has to be air tight or juice will flow out the bottom

You can also get leakage if the wicks aren't creating enough of a seal (which I guess would be similar to what would happen if the tank is cracked). When my T3's get down below 1.4mls or so, they would leak something fierce. I ended up pulling the head, tossing the two flavor wicks sitting on top of the coil and replacing them with three segments of wicks I took off a blown VN coil. Two wasn't enough to seal up those holes... three did the trick though.
