in 3 weeks i have tried out 6 clearomizers. it became obvious after using a boge cartomizer i wasn't getting very good flavour from any of the clearo's in comparison.

probably the best were the first two. vision ce4's. the 1.6ml with the short wick.
looking back now though, it wasn't as great as i thought at the time.

big problems with a torpedo chrome 2.5ml clearo tasting bad. thread on here about it. did what i could with the coil but it didn't totally get rid of the burning plastic taste. i did try in the end to cut away the plastic as suggested, so the coil didn't touch anything but it was made of very hard, brittle plastic, and i broke it. so never got any proper use out of that really. ntw

a vision stone 3.5ml (i think) no problems with that in terms of how it vapes, clouds of vapour but realise now the flavour from it is weak.

a 2.5ml and a 4ml clearo, the ones that come with the gs-sub starter kit. again, they vape like monsters but weak flavour/taste

this morning i cleaned out the 2.5ml clearo and gave it a dry burn to try again with it. filled it, then left it for half an hour so the wick got a good soak (never done that b4) and still same, very weak tatsting.
i vaped 2 and half tank fulls through it today thinking eventually the flavour might come through. but nope.

i have tried at every voltage from 3 through to 6.
just having no joy with these things.
i dont know if it's something i am doing, or even if i'm not doing something i should ?


any thoughts, advice, recommendations much appreciated. i am not understanding this.
the only explanation i have is this is what its like with clearo's but i doubt that.
its not the juice either, coz in an LR boge - delicious

I use ce2s which I really like, good clean flavour and clouds of vapour. But out of the box they are crap! I have to remove the mouth bit, then the rubber bit that stops leaking, remove the tube and wash, dry burn, replace the tube and fluff the wick. I never use the rubber bit as they never air right and taste rank, i just try to keep it upright and a driptip stops most of the leaks. Clearos are great when you sues out their quirks and how to deal with them, and each one has it's own quirks!
 
TY i will give that a go with one of them tomorrow.
what exactly do you mean by fluffing the wick plz ?

Im having some success with the ce3 bottom coils from iVapour ... taste wise they are far out performing my previous favs the Visions
...

Still like the ease of the visions tho.

Boge cartos (or any wadding filled cartos) always taste rubbish to me
 
thanks Zombie, nothing is just straight forward is it.
have you tried the ce4 plus with the internal wick ?
 
Not yet no, I was looking at that today ... Have you tried it ?
 
no, i was going to but i've been getting a bit dis-heartened with clearos.
still have lots to learn i guess. when/if i can get one of the ones i mentioned going good, it's next on the list of things to buy then p**s about with :)
 
I do recommend those ce3 bottom coils ...
