Ok .. I'm probably easily excited, but the fact that the ohms weren't labelled on T2 heads was one of the draw backs of them. Personally I think the flavour and vapour production is a bit better than the Vivi Nova, so I was pleasantly surprised by this. I just bought a 5 pack of T2s and 10 heads and I randomly noticed the omhs are now labelled on them.

Nice. Get those from Urban? I'm getting a friend of mine to pick me up some next time he drops by there.

No, I'd like to say I support Canadian stores more, but I can't afford to pay CP 20% on the types of ordering I do currently. surevapes won out at 10 for $10 and free shipping.

Another thing I thought about, after struckus brought it up on cvcn and had to check out ..

Yup .. there's no visible coil, meaning they now have a floater wick on top of the coil, which hopefully cuts down on the gurgling/flooding. Although I do wonder if another obstruction will cut down on the vapour/flavour.

And oddly from last month's order, a third type of packaging *and* wick length, although no ohm labels or floater wick. Is this an evolutionary step or clone .. who knows. :p

And yes, I need to get out more. :blink:

Sweet ! Never bought from them before, but at that price I just placed an order :)

Figures it would be SureVapes. I may have to check them out because that's a killer price. How do they vape though? The first T2 heads I got were quite firmly bland-tasting. The second ones I got (from Urban) were excellent though.

I've really taken a liking to the T2s, and every oh-so-often you'd get the PERFECT hit. A thick, warm, extremely flavorful vape.

After seeing these pictures, I tore apart a old vision extreme clearo which I would never use (they are complete garbage), and stole the wick out of it. I cut the wick in half, laid it across the coil on the t2 head, and put back on the rubber condom thingie. Works awesome. No more flooding, amazing flavour, and best of all I can actually crank the voltage up to just under 4.8v on my twists now, whereas I'd be lucky to hit 3.8/4 before getting the nasty burnt taste.

All I can say is that if this how they're going to start making the heads, I'm sold. Now if only they'd make a vivi nova head that performed as well.

I was putting off trying these, since I have 4 T2s, a Vivi and 2 cartotanks going at the moment, but I decided to try it. :) I'm not positive yet, but the vapour is great and flavour seems on par with previous heads.

That *is* interesting and makes me feel less crazy. :) What was the omhs of that head Battlelance and can you measure the accuracy ?

These new labelled heads seem to feel like they're about 1.8-2.0 omhs and not 2.4, I had the same issue with my last 5 from months ago, from a different vendor - however the pack before that, in the same order seemed spot on. :blink:

Something seems to be up with the quality control at Kanger, the vapour and flavour are great, but I'm finding I have to use these 2.4 ohms heads at 3.8-4v instead of 4.2-4.6, so it's a tad annoying. It seems like I've gotten 2 blister packs from 2 different vendors, months apart, with and without the changes that are lower ohms than they should be. Unfortunately I don't have a way to measure ohms.

I just have whatever heads Canvape sells - they aren't etched like the ones you got. Either way, the ones I have measure +-0.4 ohms from what they are supposed to be, which isn't bad.

I think the issue with any T2 head is wicking. Those tiny wicks just don't cut it at any voltage over 3.4v'ish. Its the same reason why I consistently get garbage flavour from vivi novas - they are easy to clean, but 5 heads later, it still tastes like crap, 1.8, 2.4, its all the same.
