I'd like to know how in the world did I manger to get two products from different companies to match colors.

some kind of voodoo magic :)


speaking of colors. I just got a shipment of Kanger T2's and the blue and purple are completely different colors than they used to be.. much brighter but the red, smoke and green are the same. weird.

The purple more so than the blue. The purple is spot-on with the color match, but the blue MT3 is just a smidgen darker than the battery. Still looks really sharp though! :D

Great info Eric. That's one of the things I respect about you and the way you run DV. I have always known you to state up front if a product is a clone or suspected lesser quality. In an industry full of deception, intentional and unintentional, you have earned complete and unconditional trust from many including myself.

I am helping a friend to work out what is going on with so many different versions and just needed a confirmation on yours as you are where I go to get my stuff so yours is the only one I have.

There are at least 3 versions out there now identified. They have differing number of air holes, different styles of measurement labeling and different bores in the mouthpieces. We are trying to figure out if there are indeed knockoffs out there being passed off as real kangers or if Kanger is making changes as they go.

You have enough on your plate I am sure right now without worrying about this and have helped already by confirming that yours are the real deal as I believed them to be. Thank you Good Sir!

I only buy Kanger products and would not for a second buy anywhere else, even though they can be cheaper.

There are several companies making the "T2" etc.. they are lower in price.

I will NEVER EVER buy a non Kanger product and list it as Kanger, in fact I won't do that with anything I sell. I do not know about the T3, but I have seen the MT3 at other companies. As far as I know I have only received one version of the T3 on each order, so I would guess it's not inconsistent manufacturing on Kangers part and is something else.

I can ask them if you have pictures of other versions?

In any case, I am not going too speculate on what other vendors are selling in their stores, but from me, it's genuine Kanger.

I could get them for less... but I won't.

One thing you can always be sure of is that I will never intentionally mislead anyone on anything. Mistakes happen (like with that drip tip adapter) but outright deception is not my thing :)

It's also not Kanger Technologies (I know you were just shortening the name) , it's Shenzhen Kanger Technology Co. Ltd. Gotta be careful with the exact names, there are copycat names over there lol I had a guy from "Kanger" contact me a month or so ago, he was not from "Shenzhen Kanger Technology Co. Ltd" but sure looked like he was until I asked my rep. :ohmy:

I'll ask my rep about it, see what she says. :)

AGA- T Tiamat Plus all stainless is here in stock,

surprised by the DHL Guy :)

I only got half the order so if you want one right away, make a purchase this weekend. Not sure how long these will last.
My next shipment will be about 7 days from now. Please please understand, if the sales on this are anything like the other rebuildables I have gotten on day one, I will NOT be able to get all orders out tomorrow, please be patient with me, I will try my best.

This comes partially pre-assembled and with SS 400 MESH (but without the mesh installed) with the plastic tube, but I am including a glass tube with every AGA-T Tiamat Plus order. because I said they would come with the glass (my mistake) I also have some spare glass tubes (not many) that will work on BOTH Tiamats. I had planned on having a few hundred tanks but with this not coming with one, that number is cut back considerably.

The mesh is NOT pre-oxidized.

I also have Tiamat Plus parts kits and Oring kits also and 4 new drip tips made from the same company and they fit great and looks awesome (see samples at end of the post.) The only thing the parts kit doesn't have is the two stainless screws, but I have that also (but cheaper at the hardware store)

so basically I now have everything you'd need to get going.

This is MESH now, in terms of what is being included, if you want a wick setup on the PLUS, you'll need to buy wick and coil, or buy the premade wick and coil. The regular Tiamat still comes with wick and coil and the glass tube fits it as well. All of this is in the same rebuildable section, just click on the parts link.


I am impressed so far (in as much as I can be not being an expert) The top cap is positionable but it is not a freely rotating cap so it will not spin around on you. You have to pull it off with a bit of force and then pop it back on, the orings seem pretty darn good :) I unscrewed the screws several times and they seem solid and worthy. The included parts bag comes with all the stuff you need to keep this going.

I also have a spare parts kit, an oring kit, glass tube, small 45mmx45mm 400 mesh and also wick and coil as purchasable items separately. The wick might take a bit to go online as I need to figure out the size and the lengths and how I am going to put it but it will be online a bit later tonight.

















Parts Kit




Glass Tube:


Fits both the Tiamat and the Tiamat Plus, two per order max so everyone can get some.

Note the picture is the plastic picture but it looks identical, my battery is dying on my camera again, and this is a new batt, so it's the camera I guess, the glass tube is the same size as the plastic and has slightly rough edges so be somewhat careful with it. I don't think it will cut you but I wouldn't scratch my back with the edges :)



Here are the drip tips:

I am sure I will have some left, I got 100 of each and I don't sell that many drip tips so they should be around for a while.
and I can always get more :)

Eric, I gotta say it...DiscountVapers has become my go to FIRST site for all my new vaping gear. Enough ego strokin'. So, I was on the fence about the AGA-T original. Don't know why, really. I was thinking that maybe a Phoenix-style atty with some ceramic wick (not silica) would do me just fine and I'm not super sold on SS for wicking. Hell, I'm looking at the porous ceramic wick threads with great interest. That said, the combo of the easily positioned air hole in the top cap, all stainless steel construction, glass tank and the removal of that gnarly knurling (man, talk about unsightly) pushed me toward the AGA-T+. What kicked it over the edge though...the PRICE! Eric, I ain't sure how you're selling the Tiamat + for as low of a price as you are but, keep 'em coming, man! I've placed my order today (#19627) and I'm definitely a tried and true DiscountVapers fanatic. I love DIY and I can't wait until it's here for me to play with.

Edit: I love the Style #1 tip myself and would've gotten one but, budget constraints just didn't allow for it this time. Make no mistake though, I'm a coming back for it!;)

the ceramic wick will be here is a week or so, I am the first to get it as far as I know :)

I posted in the Tiamat thread about it :)

well... the name IS DiscountVapers LOL

I will also have a few new ones next week, some that some other vendor is selling for a ridiculous amount that will also be similarly lower.
