Need advice on CLEAROMIZERS!

[Danny BallsofDoom]

I have this "Kanger" T2 clearo that seems to be a knockoff because it does not say Kanger anywhere... and it seems poorly made. i.e. mouth piece threads almost stripped, the thread insert ring thing came off in my pocket with said mouthpiece... I had to rebend the post where the coil head sits to straighten it out so I could screw the mouth piece back on... also it says " vape USA" on the side, don't know anything about them. So, do I have a fake? I really like the fact that I can fill it from the top and change out the head so easily. Maybe I got a dud, or maybe it's time to upgrade... any advice on what to get? I really want to like this "T2".
Thanks in advance.

I picked up a T3 today and it's pretty nice so is the EVOD, but you said top fill. The iclear16 is one of my favorite clearomizers, it puts out almost as much vapor as a cartomizer. The original Vision ViVi nova is good too.

Get it from a reputable vendor, make sure the item has many reviews.

(Litecigusa is where I get my items.)

If you want to stay with the T2, get one from a vendor that sells an official Kanger model for a fair trial. For a top coil, easy to refill the original Vision ViVi nova is my go to clearo.

I plan to buy from the manufacturer this time... I just want to know if Kanger t2 tanks are worth the investment. I'll check out the vivi nova!

The kanger T2 is my main clearomizer since April 2013. You probably got a clone but they usually work pretty well. Real Kanger mouth pieces screw on more than one or two threads. The heads are cheap and hold up well, I get a nice vape from them and they don’t use a lot of juice.

They may be old style but for a top coil they work effectively.

Here is were I just bought my T2 "Sunfire" Clearomizer ... These are the new Ver 2 with the long wicks: Kanger T2 Sunfire 2.4 - 2.6ohm Clearomizer / Cartomizer - Vaping Me

Here are the replacement coil/wick cartidges (also the new Ver 2) ... Come in a blister-pack of 5 for $3.99: Kanger T2 Sunfire 70mm Long Wick Replacement Atomizer Coils 5-Pack - Vaping Me ... (You can get the coil/wick cartridges in 3 different coil ohm varieties)

These are all original Kanger. The cartridges come in original Kanger black boxes.

No leaks or no cracking of components ... works without failure

I use these as well...best prices that I have found and available in colors for different flavors. This is all my wife uses. I consider the T2 to be one of the most underrated clearos.

The mouthpiece is the weakest link as they can break at the threads (I have had to replace 2 during the last year)...If one breaks the are available here...

I agree. I generally prefer bottom coil clearomizers, and the T2 is is the only top-coil model I actually enjoy.

Like others have already suggested, get a genuine Kanger--LiteCig and Sun Vapers carry genuine Kangers. While you're getting them, consider a T3S--it's a bottom coil Kanger, possibly my favorite of the Kanger BCC lineup.

Just wait a few days--inventory is low everywhere because of Chinese New Year holiday, but production and shipping have already resumed this week, so it won't be long. I get my Kangers from LiteCig and from Sun Vapers, both great vendors.

I'm pretty sure these are the same as the Triton tanks, aside from the bottom threading. I'm going to order some of the T2 coils for my tritons, they appear to be identical. That said, the replacement tips should be the same and they are available from Halo for .99 each

Thanks for the link. I may check out the Vivi Nova Mini... see how it compares to the T2.
