I know I'm new to vaping but I have to say I extremely dis-like the Kanger T3 :nah:. The thing SUCKS! It taste bad, gurgles and leaks juice.

I have tried following the 'fix' thread I was directed to here http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/clearomizers/368470-t3-leaking-fixed-resolved.html I have to say the broken straw draw is better with flaring out the metal in the mouth piece, but everything else got worse. The damn thing wasted my whole sampler of AiV juice and I'm so :cry:

I really wanted to love this product but I really don't. :mad:

Sorry to hear that and I feel ya. I wasted a lot if juice before I got it working well. It is a fine balance in over wicking and/ or trimming the frommet to get the right amount of wicking without flooding. I take it you did wash the wick and coil, as well as dry burn if the coil is gunked? With out over wicks mine will leak. I guess the difference could be that I rewicked mine first. And used 2-3 over wicks. Yeah if your juice supplies are low you better wait to mess with it

I did clean it again and took out both over wicks, replaced one of the over wicks and had both over wicks on. If I set it up right on the table it will leak right out the bottom of the device. I tried tightening down the screw and it made no difference. Had thought about replacing the little gasket down there but really don't want to go thru the effort to find one that fits there.

Glad to hear you got yours working the reviews I read and the videos I have watched really makes me want to love it.

I like my mini vivi nova, picked up 2 more yesterday. When I ordered tank styles for the first time I got one Stardust, one Kanger T3 & one mini vivi nova. So far the winner is vivi. Trying the Satrdust again tonight it's just been cleaned and I'm going to let it dry out for the rest of the day and try again tonight after dinner.
My friend loves his carto tanks so I picked up one yesterday to give a go.
Bummer another K3 frown. I've only tried a couple of em and liked em really well. But I'll go with the BRAND name Vivi Nova, and then my carto/tanks. If your ready to try a carto/tank, you won't regret it after the learning experience we all go through.

My stupid Kanger t3s are now leaking,one after another,from a brand new place. kanger-T3-kit-2.jpg
Does anyone have a suggestion on what to do? perhaps a line of glue around the circumference where the plastic meets the metal? What type of glue?I just opened a brand new one,filled it and it poured out from here

I really liked my T3's but, I had one sitting on my dresser yesterday, and it leaked out the bottom! I was saddened as I had been so happy with mine. They're so easy to use (being a newbie and all).

Really weird. In the below post, if you change Kanger T3 to Mini Vivi Nova that would describe my experiences exactly. I have put my minis in the junk box because they leak and gurgle BAD! I bought my minis from LiteCig and my T3s from Discount Vapers. I simply love my T3s. I hope you find what works for you.

Been using them 3 months. When you can get them to work, they work great. Every new one I try is different than the last and I have to do different things to each one to make it work properly. The frustrating part is, figuring out what it takes to make each one work properly.
whether it's two holes or three holes, it makes no difference.

This is exactly what I was thinking. What I found fixed mine, .doesn't fix others and there are so many inconsistencies in the product. Some need more over wick some need less. Ect. Ect. It a fine balance in many factors. And it's still finicky
