Kanger T3 vs Vivi Nova Mini

[milezteg]

Another vote for the Vivi Nova here! I prefer the T2's to the T3.

I love my T3 been using it as my primary tank on an itaste VV and ego twist. Love the bottom feed with the stock ohms. I still have my vivi loaded with a 2.8ohm head. but the t3 is great

I have not yet tried the T3, (I am in a coop of some, but have not gotten them yet.) However I do like the Vivi a lot but I love the CE3 bottom coils except that I get leaking in the CE3s. This is why I am going to try the T3s.

I agree with several people that have already posted and think you should buy one of each and see which one you like better. I will suggest when you buy the vivi, go with the mini. It is almost the exact diameter as the twist.

Every time I ask for opinions on "one or another" of anything, I get about half of the people swearing by one and the other half swear by the other. I almost always end up trying both out and see for myself. For instance, I know several people that really liked the stormizers and I bought 2 of them and I couldn't get either one to work for me. Dry hits every single time! What works wonderfully for one person, doesn't do it for another.

Good luck with your journey and I hope you find what works for you!

I love my T3s. I do agree with some that there are a few consistency issues with them but I just let the vendor know and cross my fingers that they're doing their part to try to get some point across to suppliers about the issue.

I'm finding that removing one of the wicks and leaving only 2 (the coil wick and just 1 strand of filler wick) helps a lot in avoiding dry burns; in fact I barely get dry burns unless I take more than 3 hits too consecutively. Never tried the vivi's, but I have heard many good things, and I guess it's just a matter of what style you like once you try both (I'm liking the bottom coils). My friend has a mini vivi, and I can say cleaning/changing replaceables on my T3s looks slightly easier than cleaning/changing the vivi tanks, so that's something else to consider.

And quick remark on dry burning: I've seen countless videos and instructions on how to dry burn, it has never worked for me as well and just a good thorough rinse (sometimes a 1 hour gin soak) and thorough dry on the top vents of my DVR cable box (make sure it's on and not on stand-by for maximum hot air flow ). Good luck and hope you find what you're looking for.

My best advice, as others have said, is to try both. I've been using the Vivi nova and I've gotten all my friends to switch to it. I'm actually about to try a t3 and splitfire to see what I like best. Both from what I hear are good and speaking from experience the Vivi is top notch.

I have not yet tried the evaporator Τ3 but from T2 expect better and not smell burnt turns
I prefer VIVI NOVA short wicks with tighter puff just like my Genesis Cobra

 

[foggdawg]

The new vision spinner is a great vv like the twist but revised.

Don't get comparing ah genesis atty to ViVi Nova (10 - 15 USD) unless youre building w/ SS wick, to the Cobra (150 USD)...

but + 1 for the Nova reference


My all day driver; wont leak..

Some people buy things, don't know how to use them, don't bother to learn how, have a bad experience and then report how bad that product is. Others swear by products most cant figure out or afford.

Comparing apples to oranges doesn't work either. Vivi=Top Coil - Kanger T3=Bottom Coil different designs with different ways to use properly.

Vivi mini vs. Kanger T2 V2(updated)

Vivi has great reviews not that it has been updated and I have just ordered a few to try out.
Kanger T2 V2 also has good reviews. I can vouch for these as I have 2 in rotation, now over a month.

Both need to be properly maintained to last. Regular cleaning/dry burning
Both have replaceable Coil Heads in choice of LR SR HR - (Vivi heads can be recoiled if you are into it)

Pricing for each is reasonable, however with the release of the Kanger T3's the price of T2's is dropping. You can get 2 for the price of a Vivi.

T2's for $4.49
Coil Heads $.99

The Vivi Nova with the long wick has worked out best for me....

same here, the vivi nova is just awesome with 1,8ohm running at 3.7v

 

[LTV1]

So far I prefer the Vivi Nova or Vivi Nova Mini to the T2. The T2's extended center post is too close to the lips, so chain vaping it with a plastic tip can get pretty hot. I slap a SS drip tip on any Vivi and I can chain vape if I want and not pay a burnt lip penalty.

Have not tried the T3's.

I loved my T2s at first, but both of them would randomly leak juice out of the bottom connection into my twists. I've never had that problem once with my vivi novas. I'm not even going to give the T3s a chance because of this. The novas (mini and full size) have been very reliable. Plus they're rebuildable, if you ever get into that.

Mine flood too... Generally it's because the head is not fully tightened...
