And this is with a brand new T3? I noticed he said they require some maintanace and fiddling, want sure if he ment to keep them running good.... my issue is it isn't running good from the start. Doesn't keep up, bad taste, dry hits. Its built solid and doesn't leak, but other than that it sucks so far.

I have both 2 hole and 3 hole I got these when they first came out and ordered like 20 more in a co op I got the three hole and they are a little more airy but are great I just clean and use. But you have to blow into them gently till you see air bubbles every few hits too get the juice on the wicks. Also it's good too remove a flavor wick or flip the seal that is on the base. If you need more info do a search or pm me.

Wonder if he realized the faulty the T3's he got ahold are made by "vision" not by kanger ?!?

Well, than that would add a whole new angle to the conspiracy.... that GotVapes lied to him about where they came from and gave them a fake suppliers name. And then kangers new T3's amazingly look exactly like the supposed fake ones by vision.

Not really since there now selling the vamo mod and calling it a Vision VV/VW Mod. Just saying its adding to the conspiracy. I think kanger and vision is just about the same company anway since they subcontract parts of prodcuts to eachother. Maybe... don't have proof

I have purchased a total of 16 T3's. Five from Lite Cig and 11 from Got Vapes plus five replacement heads. I have both smooth mouthpieces and the notched mouthpieces. ALL T3's have the dual scales which was one of the differences cited by PBusardo because Lite Cig's product listing shows only one scale.. Of the 21 heads only one has two holes, the rest have three, another of the so called differences.. As I recoil with cotton wicks I can not comment as to flavor issues.

While researching this thread I found How to remove bad plastic taste from the Kanger T3. Take it for what its worth.

PBusardo has posted "So after hearing, reading, and listening, it looks like they are probably ALL Kangers with KangerTech making little tweaks here and there in newer productions runs". For some reason, ECF is not letting me post the link, so... "tasteyourjuice.com" On the left select The Gates, then,Scroll down for his entry on the 14th. There is also other information from Kanger there.

So to me this whole thing see my signature below.

ah no !! if i still had that link to the vision statement about them making knock-offs i would post it

They made some bottom coil clearos like the kanger after kanger came out with the first bottom coil.... bound to happen just like how everyone make a knock-off/clone of the vision stardust clearo. I saw the kanger style T3 that vision made on their site but have yet to see one for sale

Not knocking GotVapes. I've ordered from them before and my vision clearos and novas where the real deal and worked grate. One thing I'm sceptical about is the Vamo their selling under the name Vision. Its been selling all over the net for many months under the name Vamo & Bamboo. Got Vapes is selling it as the Vision eGo variable volts/watt APV. I wasn't aware that Vision made this. Vision is real good about placing their name or logo on as many of their products as they can so people know they actually made it. This product doesn't have their name on it at all, not even on the box or instructions.

I emailed Got Vapes and they assured me it was made my Vision themselfs. I emailed Vision about it to see if they made it, but its been half a week and they have yet to get back to me.

It goes further than the T3.
Also hearing complaints about inconsistency in the T4/G5.

It's a shame, really, because when they're good, they're great. (love the T4).
When you get one of the bad products you just go: Why? Why did you mess with a good thing, Kanger?

Kanger should stop playing around and pay more attention to quality and consistency of their product lines.
I suspect it has to do with them changing suppliers too much or something like that.

Yea, it sure I'd a shame. The T3 is such a good idea, and everything about it is built solid, except for the bad taste. I've been trying to recoil it with some SS mesh, but I keep getting shorts.

I picked up some of the new bottom coil tanks from got vapes that kinda look like a mini vivi nova... can't remember what they're called off hand, but I'm hoping they work real good since the whole bottom coil idea is great.

I still love the kanger T2's though... they work great for me. And the new version with the extended wicks are doing the job nicely.
