KANGER T3S and Naturally Extracted Tobacco? Does it "melt" the TANK? Several questions.

[Don Robertson]

Good Day one and all! Like others, I am new to 'vaping'. My local shop was my place of choice for a bit of information and direction on the "what and how" of e-Cig's. While their prices are a bit higher than on line I did feel more comfortable with the 'face-to-face' purchase.

They told me that "NATURALLY EXTRACTED TOBACCO" would possibly RUIN my new T3S. They sell their own "brand" which they claim to be 'Premium' and above the rest I might find on line. I would expect them to say just that, yet I also imagine the 'profit margin' is the main reason they suggest "only our blends" .... "only 50-50 mix" .... and their main 'warning' "NEVER USE any brand of Naturally Extracted Product - for ANYONE"! They DO offer what they call "NATURAL TOBACCO" which they claim is the same as "EXTRACTED" - but through a "special process" that does not created a 'juice' that will RUIN my T3S. They REALLY PUSH the T3S and their prices at $10.95 for each and $5.00 a piece for replacement COILS looks to be very high. Again - for a 'first time buy' I was OK with the price, but NOW I seriously doubt their MOTIVES.

NOW I am trying to find value and quality and the forum has been a help in that aspect; or, so I believe from the few sites I have checked.
I am still confused a bit as to those sites selling "House Brand BATTERIES and the like claiming to be made by the "major manufacturers". To me a "clone" can be good or bad - but how to tell without wasting money is a dilemma.

SO - experienced opinions about "Naturally Extracted Tobacco" MELTING the Kanger T3S or ANY "Clearo" style tank will be appreciated.

Well established ON LINE Retailers respected by the forum members? I see a LOT of names - but with so many it is hard to decypher the 'hype' from 'reality'. Might some be real and other may just be 'ads' for personal gain? Suggestions appreciated.

THANKS one and all!

COrdially,

Don Robertson

While I don't have any answers to your questions, I want to welcome you to the forum.

Vape shops are both a blessing and a curse. Hopefully others will come along to help with your specific questions.

Some flavors can damage plastic tanks, here is a link to a list of flavors that can from mount baker vapor: E Juice that may break a plastic tanks | Mt Baker Vapor WikiMt Baker Vapor Wiki

If your worried I'd suggest using a Protank II or something that uses a pyrex or stainless steel tank. Hope this helps!

I don't have much experience with "tank busting" flavors. From what I understand, citrus and cinnamon are the biggies.

However, if you are concerned, just get a Kanger Mini Protank II. Same form factor as the T3, (albeit a little less capacity), but it is glueless with glass and pyrex. No juice will bust that tank, only a sharp drop on a hard object will do it in, but since the glass is replaceable, you can have a couple spare "glass inserts" in your drawer and you're good to go.

If you wan't more capacity, then the Protank II will give you the same advantage with more capacity. It seems some people have more gurgling with the Protanks than the mini's. Something about the size of the air pocket on top of the fluid and the BCC design. I'm not an expert in fluid dynamics but it seems to make sense.

All I know is that the Mini Protank II works flawlessly for me, gives me similar performance to other Kanger products, and I love the fact that you can completely disassemble the tank and DRY it quickly for a very quick turnaround.

P.S. As a bonus, if you already have an investment in your T3 heads, they will work in the mini protank and protank. However, evod/protank heads will not work in the T3.

Don Hi and welcome , I vape NET's exclusively and I can tell you that BM is full of crap in plain english , they do not melt tanks , some may clog a head up faster than a non net but to get tobacco flavor requires using real tobacco IMO . If you want a clean burning NET Heather's Heavenly Vapes is my recommendation and they offer any ratio you want , that BM is less than honest IMO .

Well the T3S is a very nice device, and a nice upgrade to the original T3 form factor making it modular. As stated above, if you are worried about a certain juice cracking a plastic tank there are other alternatives, Protank 2 and Mini Protank 2 Version 2 are both nice tank systems, you also have the Davide and Mini Davide tank systems (Protank Clones) as well as the Tatroe (Protank Clone only fully metal), Hypertank with its clone the G50 (5 Milli-liter glass tank sheathed in metal uses protank heads). There are also glass cartomizer tanks, glass vivi-nova tanks, just have to get online and check around. Have to remember the T3 form factor, this includes the T3S ugraded version were really designed for portability on an Ego Class battery with its 3 milli-liter capacity and outer Ego Battery Cone threading attachment assembly.

Don't get me wrong, I own many T3S tanks and other Kanger BCC devices, but for this warning, don't take the chance with the T3S with that particular juice, if it is your "All Day Vape (ADV)" juice go with a Protank 2, Davide, or Hypertank, leaving the plastic tanks for novelty, desert, coffee, or other juices when you need a break from your ADV.

A grouping of flavors to not use with plastic tanks

1) Cinnamons
2) Citrus Flavors (orange, tangerine, limes, pineapple, etc)
3) Absynth flavors
4) Licorices

But you got my curiosity piqued, I'll have to look into NET flavors and research if any or all do crack tanks.

I should have added do not purchase house brand batteries to the above stick with AW , Sony , Panasonic ie name brands and one last time for the record NET's do not crack tanks they are the only type of juice I vape .
