MMW, I only have the 316 version from 3F so far, going to order the SXK Mini version soon. I'll say the one I have is pretty decent the only slight negative I can mention is the threading is a little on the sharp side. The one I have, the Shenray, and SXK should be good choices.
Thanks brother!

Well my # 2 TGT III styled finally made tracking again, seems it may have come from the other direction. It cleared ISC Miami yesterday. My # 4 cleared LA ISC the day before.
I had a box of cartos take 6 months to delivery once from NY but the seller had replaced them already, by the time I received them I no longer used cartos.
I have never not received a package that was sent.
Edit: # 4 arrives tomorrow, Friday, 8 days from acceptance.

# 4, this one, $20.27 GT III Styled RTA Rebuildable Tank Atomizer - 304 stainless steel + glass / 5ml at FastTech - Worldwide Free Shipping arrived today. It's the best of the three that I have by far.
All insulators are Peek, upper chimney groove diameters are 3.6 mm on lower groove and 3.0 mm on the upper one, no chimney turning with fill cap removal. Has logo but no serial, spare o-rings and spare glass.
My opinion is it's well worth the extra $.
23.6 mm
in cart

Well long over due # 2 arrives today with 5 spare glass pieces. I hope they made the long trip OK.


Edit: # 2 arrived, the 5 spare glass liners were put into a small box and unbroken.
This TGT III is the black one from FFF. Only the positive coil post insulator is Peek on this one.
I measured the chimney o-ring grooves and both are 6 mm. The chimney turned with fill cap removal so I changed the lower o-ring to whatever SAE size that I posted previously and that took care of it. Arrived clean but has an odor, will clean as usual.

Nothing.............I hope.
Oh, maybe you mean "what did I replace her SDNA 75 with". Ya she's pretty hard on 'em, still works yet.
When you give a mod to another person, you usually get something to replace that mod... ;)

I figured there might be a shiny new DNA 250 or a least a HOhm Wrecker G2 in it's place. :lol:

Tut tut, Taifun GT 3 clones.... get an authentic!

View attachment 620205

Doing my head in this is, it's an absolutely superb tank, but i would like to DTL at 45 watts!, as i did with the Rose 3, may just get a Wotofo Serpent Mini.... but still for £91.00 i want a tank that can take ANY wire! Any way to fix this?

I saw your other thread, sorry your having issues trapping wire on your authentic!

Taifun GT 3 deck can't clamp down anything thicker than 27 kanthal!!

You should really post in this thread, quite a few here that have the authentic, and someone may be able to help you out.

I just have a lowly clone, but have no issues trapping even some fairly fat claptons on it. Now I doubt my cheap clone has better/more appropriate screws, but who knows?

Since I don't have an authentic ATM I can only guess at your issue, my guess is technique, or just some poorly implemented screws. You could probably grab some tiny flat washers, or even some more appropriate screws IE slightly larger heads/ones with flat surface below the heads.

The above would probably improve ease of trapping larger wire, regardless whether it is skill, or the screw that is the problem.

Maybe someone with the authentic will pipe up and give you a better answer.

I'm using 2 strand twisted 28 gauge SS430 with all 4 of my "styled" versions. This is more difficult than using straight 26 gauge......but doable with no problems.
The v3 is much easier to install a coil than it's predecessors.....styled or not.
