Dealing with the Cubis coils

I use those, I put 1 drop on the two wick slots on the bottom of the coil, 3 drops on the cotton fill tank, and let it sit for 5 min. should be good to go after that. if you get some spitting from it I hit the fire button on/off, on/off 2-3 times, that works for me.
I tried doing that with my last batch of coils but I somehow managed to flood all of them. Don't know how I did that.
I put 4-5 drops right down the top of the coil and let it soak in for a few minutes. I do get a lot of flooding after refilling. I usually have to roll up a piece of paper towel and stick it down the air tube to soak up the excess.
I put 5 drops in the top of the coil then dry hit it a couple times upon first use. If I happen to flood it on refill, I simply blow into it a couple times. If I am getting spitting, I too hit the fire button a few times until it stops.
I just purchased the Cubis after many failed attempts with bottom fill tanks. I use a 1.0 coil as I am a MTL hitter. I also purchased an AIO and burned through the 0.6 coils it came with rather quickly.

I only use the ss coils in wattage mode. In the full size tank I have tried 0.5, 0.6 1.0, and 1.5 (clapton). I'm a lower wattage guy (like 8 watts). I like .6 best, but the 1.0 or 1.5 give me longer battery life and less juice usage, so I use these more often. Frankly I don't find much difference in the 1.0 and 1.5 so they're interchangeable to me. I also use the rba head and build my own in the 1.5 range.
I also have the AIO, and the .6 just uses up that smaller battery and juice too quickly for me.
I have the AIO also but mine gets really hot like only after 5 or 6 pulls on the thing. I go through juice in that small tank too but I have used the 0.5 coils in there ever since I ran out of the 0.6's so that might have something to do with it. I have not tried the 1.0 ohm coil but I've heard some good things about it.
I've been getting 2 weeks or more.
With the 0.5ohm, I drop a couple on the mesh before attaching and 3 for each juice slot.

I have been using the Cubis for 7 months now. I get anywhere between 80-120 ml through the coil before replacing. At the rate I vape that puts me at an average of 4-6 weeks per coil. Currently I am starting week 7 with coil I am using now. I also vape at a constant wattage once I've broken the coil in. No jerking the coil around: one vape at 15 watts and the next at 30 then another at 23. Nope once I ramp up to my personal sweet spot for that liquid I stay there.
Generally I have used the .5 ohm coil. Here is the prime/new coil process I personally use. And that's a big part of it. I encourage you to find what works for you.
I put at least 10 drops into the top of the .5 coil saturating the coil until it leaks from the bottom. Then I place in a full tank and leave over night. In a way I am deliberately over saturating the coil to start which I have found actually cuts back on long term spit back.
On that first vape of the first morning I do have one episode of spitting but then it is gone for 90% of the life of the coil. The other thing I have grown accustomed to doing is not allowing the tank to run low on liquid as this keeps the pressure in the tank relatively constant.
These coils are "upside down" from normal coils so it takes some time to "learn" them but once you do I have found great life on them.
Again, just the method I use. Hope you are finding the answers you are looking for.

I drop 5-7 drips in the top of the coil, put it in the tank, give it a few primer pulls and let it sit for 5-10 minutes. I don't have problems with spitting and gurgling although that does a bit when I refill the tank. This is with the .5 SS coil.
I like the .5's too but I just have a really hard time priming them.
Wow, I can't even make them last at least a week. I've tried dropping a little juice on the mesh but every time I do that, I burn up the coil before I can even use it.
Wait, I don't understand this statement. What do you mean you burn them up before you can use them?
Just found your quote. I would recommend more drops in the top. Letting the cotton soak in the liquid in between drops. Then I would recommend trying to let the coil soak over night. Also, what wattage are you running the .5 at?
Oh sorry. I can see how that made no sense. Basically, they are burning up too fast.
I have the Ego AIO and it's not vv or vw so I don't know what wattage it's running at to be honest. I also just bought the Cubis tank so I was gonna give that a try.
Well let us know if you have any questions. I have two Cubis and a Cubis Pro.
