New evod coil problems

[Luke Mogielnicki]

I replaced my evod coil a day ago, it fires, sizzles, vapour production is TERRIBLE and I can't taste anything. It's so thin I can barely see my o's. Someone please help.

maybe it's just a dud coil.

oh; and the evod/protanks coils: there were quite a few tanks using similar coils, but some were slightly different ;
I'd want to check if your coil is flooding because the top of the coil is not sealing with the airtube;; if that's the problem adding a second silicone cap upside down should seal it.

Different resistance?

It is possibly a dud coil. It happens from time to time.Make sure the coil is seated securely in the base.

Maybe the wrong coil ? or maybe a higher resistance coil?

 

[Luke Mogielnicki]

It's not leaking, it might just be a bad coil

 

[Luke Mogielnicki]

It's definitely the right coil, but I don't know the resistance.

by slightly different I mean there are coil heads that fit in the tank, but not an exact fit; a little shorter at the top

maybe it's a different resistance than the previous one and your battery isn't able to power it adequately;
the ohms is usually on the box. 1.5 1.8 2.0 2.2

how old is the battery?

I have a drawer filled w/evod coils. I've taken many apart, and the wraps are very different on different batches (as is the thickness of the wire and also sometimes the amount of silica wick even in coils of same ohms).

That is typical of over the counter coils. Plenty of duds, but they are cheap so I don't mind.
