Kanger T3S coil issues!

[tcook]

So i bought the T3S because of the positive reviews and i have had nothing but issues since. The coils are the problem. So when i replace the coil it will burn great for about 2 days (vape will slowly reduce) and then it stops working altogether. No vape at all! I can't afford a new coil every 2 days. Any suggestions?

Hi tcook,

What type of juice are you using and what type of battery are you using, what the is the volts/watts at?

The more I know the more I can help

Love!

Dark, sweet, thick, artificially colored or sweetened juices will foul heads quickly, chain vaping will shorten their life also.
The tiny amount of wicking material in the head is easily gummed up, causing reduced vapor production and burnt taste.

You can try soaking the used heads in PGA overnight then rinse with hot water, blow out & allow to dry, sometimes they'll work for a while longer.
Replacement heads are available in 5 packs for $6 ~ $7.50.

hi tcook, welcome to ECF world

T3S are great, amongst my FAV toppers

so you say it works good for two days
then slacks off...

simple, short - it's your juice gunking up your coil

if it works, then no reason just degrades I'd bet that is what it is

not your ratio (PG/VG), not the color, but the sweetness of the juice

the sugar cooks and builds up on the coil wire (think of stuff on the stove)
then vaporization is diminished...

learn how to 'fix' your coil or change juice

best I got for ya, learn the simple process of bcc rebuilding
added bonus is you can use cotton and wow yourself with flavor increase

good luck

Had the same issue with Kanger coils. 2-3 days was the best I could get out of them. Hated having to pay for new heads that often. Youtube has some good videos on how to rebuild the coil heads. That's probably the best advice I have if you intend to stick with the T3. It's not technically complicated to do just a little tedious to build (small coils).

Worth learning to do though. Good practice to see if you would like to move to an RBTA.
