I burn coils constantly

[scottt140]

I tend to burn coils a lot. I rip hard and often and am often disappointed I'm not getting enough flavor or any satisfaction out of it.

I have a SMOK Alien 220W TC Currently using an Aspire Cleito Tank with .4 coil Usually do around 50 watts Currently have “Killa Fruits Kiwi Strawberry” with is 20%/70% I also have a smok beast tank, not sure which one Always use 6mg nicotine

I want a tank that can hold more juice and burn less.

I probably over use it and don’t wait long enough in-between hits. As a smoker I would always be done in half the amount of time as other people so its hard to slow down.

When i unscrew the top I see little bubbles com out the cotton. Does that mean its too tight not and absorbing as it should? does that even make sense?

What would you recommend?

Not got a Cleito myself, but it does sound as though its not wicking properly.
You could try some 60pg/40vg liquid to prove a point.

I think I was reading it wrongs its 70/30 according to the internet.

Looking at the cotton will tell you if its drying out too quickly - I've never seen bubbles come from the cotton.

If you vape like you smoke then you're not going to get much satisfaction

20%70% = 90%

What's ther rest? %

Yes you are probably vaping too fast

I seem to remember reading somewhere about an issue with "air lock" and the Cleito, and a solution was to loosen the cap a little.

Here:

I believe it's called vapour lock/vacuum lock, the vacuum in the tank is to strong preventing liquid from entering the coil and air entering the tank.
I believe the Cleito is well known for it and I'm having the same issue with the Atlantis evo. The suggested solutions I found are not over tightening the top cap and putting pin holes in the wick ports... any other/better solutions would be welcome though.

She wasn't BSing, well maybe about the '6 months' bit.

No clue why, but the Cleito does seem to form an 'air lock', opening the topcap releases the pressure and lets the coil rewick. It does extend the coils life but not 6 months worth

You've never seen bubbles? on both my tanks I see little air bubbles each and every time after i take a hit.

If you want it to be more like smoking you might be better off trying something with a tight draw like a nautilus and 50/50 juice with 12 or 18mg nic. I chain puff my low power, high nic tanks quite a lot and never have a problem. I think because it’s using less power it is less likely to burn. I also was a mad ferocious smoker when I used to smoke.

Do you take the time to prime your coils properly?
