GTI 0.4 usage (vaporesso)

[Gatallica]

Hi guys.

Thanks for your help before. I’m well on my journey.

I just have a question about the GTI 0.4 coils (vaporesso)

It says 50-60w best at 55w. I’ve been trying to use the coil at 55w, it’s been about 5 days and I’m already noticing a burnt taste a little.

I don’t know if that is due to how I primed the coil, or maybe I am expecting too much from it.

I was expecting to get 2 weeks use out of it, if it continues like this I’ll probably try 50w. I’m using the 70/30 juice, next time I’ll go for a different juice as I don’t really like this one, but it’s got enough flavour I’m starting to notice the burning.

Any help appreciated. Thanks guys

5 days isn't bad for a stock coil in my experience, but it depends of how sweet your liquid are. I vape very sweet liquids which kills coils quickly. Even so, I've never understood how people can get two weeks or more out of any brand of stock coil.

It depends on the mod really. But I don’t see why you won’t get 2 weeks out of it, depends on usage. Which is a tough one, I work 24 hours I don’t get a lot of usage out of it

If it’s a non sub ohm mod then you can defo get 2 3 weeks out of it. But I’ve not heard any less for sub ohm coils

the GTi are for the i tank and i must admit i wasnt that impressed by the 0.4
0.2 all the way followed by the 0.15
its difficult to gage my usage on it as its used daily but then i do use other kits as well.
i think the longest was around 3-4 weeks with the 0.2 at 40-45w even though its rated at 60-75 and best at 70w but working it out with all the other kits used i was getting a good 2 weeks or a little more.

priming and starting low is a must though. no matter which coil prime it by dripping juice on all the exposed cotton then start at 25watts and turn up a couple of watts every few puffs.
there is no right or wrong wattage as it depends on what your sweet spot is.

also (and this works on other coils) using a very small watch screwdriver scratch at all the cotton around the coil but dont press hard as you dont want to disturb the wire. doing this gave me at least another week on the zeus coils and i easilly get through 35ml a day with my custard.

As people have said some juice’s kill coils quicker than others x and Just because coil says best watts, my advice would be to ignore that ! with a new coil do all your priming and start very low on watts, even at 5 watts it’s breaking the coil in x then up it slowly until you find your personal sweet spot ( where you can taste it best) I have one juice that’s best to me on 32w and another that’s at 43w x every one is different so I always recommend this method with every new coil and/or juice x
