has anyone that owns an orion v3 removed the muffler??? I read somewhere on a post made by nosmoker that it can be removed.....does anyone know where to get spare tanks for it...I was lucky enough to score one of these but both of my tanks got damaged... one shattered and one cracked in transit so I'm ..... out of luck....lol sorry for the off topic but didn't want to start a new thread on the orion v3..

I have removed my "muffler" as it just pulls right out, can be raised higher and/or pushed in to sit pretty low. I have mine pointing at the base of my coils, but vaped with it out for a bit. As far as the tanks, same as the V2 as far as I can tell. I have a few I got from Bedazzled a while back when I needed them for my V2. I checked them against the ones that came with my V3, and they appear to be the same. I can measure them with my micrometer tomorrow to make sure...

I don't think it does, but you never know. I found it to be about the same as running wide open. I expect you'll also have some leaking through the airhole. I actually find it runs best with the middle air setting. Though with a 2.1 cap lined up just left of the wick, I get a noticeable amount more of vapor, it seems to reduce the flavor slightly. The coil is getting air from multiple sides with the 2.1 cap, which is increasing vapor. I haven't played with coil I have right now (2Ω 32g), just airflow and muffler positions. Was planning on trying some different coils, but this one is working well @ 11 -12W. Les suggests a lower ohm coil ~1.5Ω @ 8w. I usually run a 1Ω 28g on my 2.1 with a bog rat top cap and 1.2mm, as a comparison. My vape style is 4-5 second lung hits.
