Wonder if anyone ever considered, If you take the base from a known Good T3 and screw it onto a Known Bad T3.........The Bad T3 should now be the Good one.
In all seriousness, all these Top and Bottom coil tanks have one working section in common. The coil section.
If Any tank is normally good in design then any poorly working version should be reasonably correctable.
This applies to All decent Designs regardless of manufacturer.
I love PBusardo reviews, but Phil can and does overlook the simplest things. I have posted and received replys on a few.
PB's Poorly functioning T3 - never did he think to Replace the wick with the one from his GOOD unit. This would have immediately pointed to Wick/coil issues or Tank defect.
I Will say, also Most-Manufacturers, wick coil assemblies are horrid for Q.C. - Contaminants crop up and coils need to be soaked before use. Poor assembly, OMG sometimes horrible coils, abound.
I really believe 90+% of complaints have nothing to do with the particular tank as it simply holes liquid and has an air path, but rather are due to poor fluid transfer/vaporization - coil assembly.
Food for thought.
