I have the regular black Evod tanks that came with the kit...I ordered these (my hubby wants to try) [h=3]EVOD / MT3 eGO Bottom Coil Clearomizer[/h]The coils have a smaller stem?? Can I use the regular coils I have with these or do I need the shorter ones only? I have a ton of the regular bottom coils with the longer stem...

By "stem" I'm thinking you're referring to what's usually called the chimney.
If that's the case, it shouldn't make any difference. I use a variety of bottom coil clearos, rebuild all the coils, and don't pay a lot of attention the the chimney length or what they go on, and all have worked well.
But if you look at the hole through the chimney, they're not all the same diameter. Some are very small, and will give a tighter draw than the bigger holes. (Neither is good or bad - unless it affects the draw in a way you, the user, doesn't like
)

Sounds like the chimney. The term I use, and have seen for the piece it goes into is simply the air tube. The chimney can be pulled off and swapped. And has to be pulled off to clean and dry burn the coil, after taking the flavor wicks out.
With it still in a base just rock it a bit while you're pulling.

I've had evods and pro tanks. The heads marketed as protank have the longer stem/chimney... When marketed as evod they have the shorter one. Not sure the benefit of one over the other, I've used them interchangeably with no noticeable side effects (no: leaking, tighter draw, dry hits, flooding etc... Atleast no more than usual)

Before dual coils, T3S coils could be used with T3 and MT3 with a base connector and also could be used with evods and protanks. They (T3S coils) were longer but those clearos would still accept them. The only one that couldn't accept them was the 'baby T3', although it could accept T3 coils. And it could accept the shorter evod and protank coils. But the evod and protank coils (same coil) doesn't fit the T3 with a connector base or the T3S. Not sure if any fit the aerotanks or unitanks. lol.
Dual coils are different although there are reports - DaveP - who say the dual coil clearos - T3D, Evod2, Evod Glass, protank 3 and mini, will take some single coils but I haven't tried that yet myself.

I just tried putting a T3 coil into a dual coil clearo and there is a gap between the cap type silicon seal that goes just above the wicks and below the chimney. So I found another seal that fills that gap so no eliquid gets into the chimney. It's not a seal from any T3/T3S or T3D - something from another coil but not sure what lol... BUT I think if one grabed that same seal from the dual coil replacement coil and put that on top of the seal from the T3 or T3S, it would work. I'll try that next
It's the top seal here:
No. The second one is just something I had on hand that fit. Just a disk, but reversing the one (more like a cup) off the dual coil might be a good idea.
I like the idea of removing the chimney (I was using the term wrongly but you're right). I'm going to try to see if a T3 chimney will fit a T3S. The T3 is longer. I'm not sure if a T3S chimney would work with the T3D, but one could take just the chimney from the T3D, put it on a T3 or T3S coil unit and that would likely be the best set up since then nothing would fall short and one could keep the silicone cup in place.
Probably will. But the height of the head is the same, so all you'll get will be more chimney in the air tube, the gap will be the same.
When my kanger types reach the end of their service life (for me, that's when they creep up to about 3 Ω), they get cleaned and tossed in a jar until I have enough to make a rebuild session worthwhile. I have heads from T3S, PT 1 and 2, Davides, Aros, Hypertanks... and don't bother to keep track of which is which. Find them to be interchangeable.
The T3S will work in the PT1, 2 and all the others. Their heads are a slightly wider diameter so don't go all the way down into the T3S base, so may leak or not make a connection. But that's easy to spot when you put it on.
(Of course, the T3 is a real bear to re-assemble - so my original T3 and MT3 toppers now have the "upgrade" base. But the chimneys went into the rebuild bin, and have seen service. On something

)I think they will work in both tanks I think the problem I had that made it seem not to work was more of a me "doing something stupid" thing - LOL!! Hubby has been vaping clove for two days, and only had a couple chews of snuff!! I am not putting on the pressure - LOL, it worked better for me NOT to feel pressured

It was to me that the older evods had 2 different heads, one with a short stem and one with a longer stem, one of them ..I can't remember which one also came with a itty bitty oring under the stem cap that would make up for the difference in heights of the stem. I also can't remember if they were interchangeable but I don't think so but I could be wrong.
The T3's head compared to the protank head, you'll see the flange on the T3 head is a ioda smaller than the PT so the T3 head will fit in the protank but the protank head doesn't fit properly in the T3. There is a gap ontop the stem cap where it meets the T3 shaft and also the T3 top piece won't screw completely onto the base, you'll see a space. The fix is as stated before by flipping a 2nd stem cap upside down thus filling the gap but you still have the space on the base.
