So, I tried the T3 last night

[drummerskey]

Not bad, not bad......I almost popped an eyeball on the first hit but when I found the air holes on the grip and plugged one with my finger; it was fine. I read about using glue or whatever to close up the hole and now I see why. I would assume from looking at it that it is easy to clean (correct me if I am wrong). It looks way more sturdy than the Nano. On the 900 battery, it is really big but I don't plan to use them anywhere other than work and home (maybe the car too).

I left it on my battery at home so I hope they aren't prone to leaking and I can see myself forgetting to turn it upside down to remove from the battery.....because I am an idiot.


I am also pretty sure that all of my Clearos just go decommissioned.

p.s. Also got some of the new Niquid. Strawberry Smoothie or whatever it is. I like the tips a lot and once the bottle is empty (which is one more turn of a T3), I may wash and recycle the tip on something else.

I use a toothpick and break it off in one of the holes. If they would just put two holes in it, evenly spaced it would be perfect for me. There are fairly leak proof, havent had a leaker yet, much better than the clearos which always leaked for me. Fruit flavors seems to do better in the T3 - tobacco flavors tend to mute or separate a little and taste different.

You can rub an unscented candle over one or more of the airholes to block the air flow. Using candle wax works really well and can easily be removed if you wish to increase the air flow again. Another option is clear nail polish.

Figures.....all three of my 78s have died at the same time. I don't even use them very much.

I use stickers on the holes... that way I can change them with flavor changes.

 

[drummerskey]

sackum, frackum, rackum batteries.......

I actually dont mind using my fingers to plug the hole. It works like a choke and if I apply and release repeatedly through the drag, it works wonderfully. Huge difference in the autos vs manual though.

Wow, what a great idea,I hadn't heard this one yet!!

I haven't had a leak from a T3, yet, and I've been using Kangers for about three months and SI for about two months, only because SI got delayed with their release. I use them on X2-650 autos, an iTatse and a Vamo and they perform quite well on all three. Cleaning is super easy as is filling. My CE3s are getting less use, but I still rely on them on a 78mm for those times, lots of times, when my hands are too busy for a big battery. Incidentally, I tried a T3 on a 78mm using an Ego/808 adapter and they work there as well. The key is the coil resistance being "right" for the battery in use.

 

[drummerskey]

well, I can't try that because every last one of my 78s are dead!!!!! at the same time!!!!!

I just ordered more T3s and more heads but I doubt that I am going to replace the CE3s for when I am out, which is most of the time. I don't know why but I also ordered a spinner. I got it for free with the sale and everything else I ordered so I figured, why not? I was going to order more 78s but I just got another X2 manual. I hope "raspberry" inst too girl-ee (they never have stainless when I look)

As long as the raspberry isn't too pink, LOL

 

[drummerskey]

it looked kinda burgundy........and there was a "pink". If it is burgundy, we are good; if not, I may have to contact SI before they ship it out.

 

[awsum140]

Maybe go for fuscia?

I can't take the credit for this idea. Another poster suggested this in another SI thread about adjusting the airflow of the T3. I tried it and it worked, making it is a great temporary fix. Just thought I would post it here too.

Raspberry is very, very close to pink, easy to mix up.

You may have to contact SI... it's closer to pink than burgundy... at least IMO. I had a raspberry X2 and ordered the pink X2 for my daughter. The colors are very similar, pink being lighter... the raspberry slightly darker.

SI's red X2 seems closer to burgundy which is gorgeous btw, but the red SI spinner won't arrive until after the Chinese New Year.

It is not pink just so you know.










But it is HOT PINK. LOL.

I'm a guy and using raspberry x2 batt, go figure.

 

[drummerskey]

switched it

 

[drummerskey]

am I missing something? I am getting juice in the air hole pretty frequently. I have to blow it out but I didn't think it leaked

 

[awsum140]

Don't tell me you're sucking liquid through a T3 as well as CE3s!

 

[drummerskey]

I guess I am pulling too hard
