    Default Brand New Clearomizer-No Vapor.

    Had been working fine up until the middle of the day, then suddenly no vapor. I can hear it cooking. Tried rinsing it out and dry burning it. Nothing. Can't even get the coil to glow. But it gets hot. What gives?

    Contact the vendor. I have had nothing but problems with clearos, love the concept, hate the performance. I will stick with glass and polypro tanks. I give up on clearos! LOL bnrk

    Did you rinse it out with water and not dry it? It takes a long time to burn the water out and wick the juice in.

    What Clearo are you using? Sounds like the coil isn't getting any juice but it should be glowing really quick if it's dry and getting proper voltage. If you've tried adjusting the seals I don't have any more ideas without knowing more details.

    Have you got a way to check the ohms? It could just be a dud.

    i agree make sure wicks are dried of water...also make sure battery doesnt have any juice on it..clearomizer flood and the juice goes down and out the air hole onto the bat making a weak connection, which results in the coil not getting enough power

    It's dry. And I have a sealed battery. I believe it's a Vision V2, long wick. But I'm not sure. I can take it to the vendor and have it checked. They're very good with their customer service. So annoying. Nothing else vaped or tastes as good as this clearomizer that I've tried. Back to the cartos for now I guess. Ugh. Gross.

    Make sure the atty head is still screwed in tightly. Removing the top cap a few times can turn the head and give it a bad connection.

    I have a number of even inexpensive clearos and they work a treat for me. What brand/style are you using, and with what kind of battery and juice? Defintely sounds like a wicking issue at first glance. That can be remedied unless the clearo itself is faulty, but I doubt that if it doesn't leak and the coil fires.

    Edit: one thought is that the rubber seal at the top of the atomizer head is coming down too far and choking off the wick and juice supply. Check that. If it is the case, then try and remove it, trim the bottom with scissors a bit, but not a lot.

    I tried two of the ones like you bought and liked them enough to add three more to a juice order from another vendor. Those three turned out to be the short wick version. They work just as well. One of the original two developed a hard pull and less than optimal vapor after about five or six tanks. It got used as a bacon flavor guinea pig and tossed.

    Don't let one bad one throw you off. That's about par for this stuff anyway.

    Hahahaha 'bacon flavored guinea pig'. Classic.

    Ya know, all of this stuff is basically mechanically static stuff. If something isn't working right, there is a reason. If it's disposable, throw it away. If it's a reusable investment, some homework is needed. Everything is fixable, even the cheap stuff. Just takes a little effort and all the bad things will do away.
