i am not sure tbh. but brenyo kinda confirmed that it will have changes and come in the new colors. not sure if its really a v3 or just an updated v2, cant rember that it was mentioned anywhere:
Yeah, this is about as much information as we have on the new reloads.

I see Brenyo has added a "random mix" reload 2 factory second option for £27 to the mad heaters page, absolute bargain!

On madheaters, it says the wooden sleeve (v2) is 'compatible with Tempest V2' (but doesn't mention the V1). Is it also compatible with the V1 head and a good match for it as well? I have a V1 head (plus Revolve 2 CU) without any stem for it, so wondering what stem to buy for it? Cheers

The V2 wooden sleeve is not compatible with the V1 as there is no stem within it, it fits over the V2 stem.

got it....Is there any sleeve left to buy for the V1 head (+ revolve CU) then? Bearing in mind that the v1 wooden sleeve is no longer in production.

Being the future oriented kind of guy that I am (being generous to myself) I found myself buying extra screens and orings as well as a new Reload. Most folks have mentioned they could hardly tell the Reloads are seconds.
I’ve been using my factory second Reload Gen 2 for about a year now. Never was able to find a defect anywhere on it.

I use custom wood sleeves made by Dovetail Woodworks for my V1 Tempests. They are designed to be DV stems and the choke hole is positioned as such but they work perfect with V1 Tempest head, revolve cooling unit and mouthpiece. You could also throw a V2 head on the stem and use it with the V1 Revolve Cooling Unit ….. Sweet AF! I like the extra stem length as I had a nasty habit of burning my fingers with the shorter stock wood V1 stem.

The new laser cut V2 bowl screens are very much drop, push and click. I used the flat end of a wooden brush, push gently & centrally.

If you're still having trouble with changing bowl size get some 8)

Anyone know if the bowls (and I suppose the flip side would be the caps) from V1 and V2 are cross-compatible?
They aren’t unfortunately. V2 bowl is wider.

I haven’t shipped any of the new screens yet. I have sent out some beta screens that look very similar, but it only has the airflow improvement.
