    First Burned Coil - Please Help

    I did this when I replaced the coil. I don't know if it is in my lungs, or just in my head, but I still smell or taste that dry hit :-x I cleaned the tank, replaced the coil with a 2nd new one, primed it and broke it in very carefully, and I still taste it. I also chewed a piece of gum and...

    So far, so good! Today is my 3rd day without a cigarette, and this has by far been the easiest 3 days without cigarettes that I have ever had!:thumbs: Had my first dry hit today :shock: and still trying to get rid of that taste. :-x Cleaned my tank, replaced the coil two times, and still...

    First Burned Coil - Please Help

    Thats what I'm thinking. I just put the tank upside down and unscrewed the base with the coil. I'm also thinking that I burned the second coil.... Putting in another new coil to see if that taste goes away.

    Vaping is my life!

    Congrats on 18months cig free! That is quite the accomplishment and you should be very proud of yourself!! I am on the other end of the spectrum. Been vaping for 12 days and cig free for 3. This has been the easiest 3 days without cigarettes for me ever, by a huge margin.

    First Burned Coil - Please Help

    Thanks for the Reply... I cleaned my tank, put in new juice, and I still feel like I have that terrible taste in my mouth. I hope i didn't burn a second coil. I did take my time to prime it. I think that smell or taste just etched itself in my nose. I'm gonna go huff some coffee and have a...

    First Burned Coil - Please Help

    I did this. Should you also wash the OCC coil to avoid the yucky taste of the first few puffs? I did both of these and the first coil was fine for 4 days. I definitely was not puffing on it hard. I wonder why the wick went dry. That's what I was afraid of. I need to dump my tank, wash...

    First Burned Coil - Please Help

    I imagine that this is a super common issue but I was unable to find an answer searching. Sorry for the newbie questions. So I just burned my first coil. I was lazily puffing on my subox mini, and yowsers!!! :shock:- got a horrible burned taste in my mouth. I took a second puff, and knew...

    Website problems?

    Hi, I am a new vaper, 3rd day off analogs, and I am looking for a backup device to my subtank mini that is a bit more pocket friendly. I saw a Eleaf GS Mini 20W & Eleaf GS AIR MS and thought that might be the perfect pocket device that also serves as a backup for me. I tried to go onto your...

    New Vaper - trying to quit smoking

    Thanks for the information! For now, I am going to continue puffing on both the evod/t3s and the subox and see how things develop. Its possible, like you said, that I end up favoring the EVOD style and decide that I want to go forward with that style setup. I am not in a hurry to purchase...

    New Vaper - trying to quit smoking

    Yes... I understand what you are saying. I primed the coil using the method on the instructions. 4 drips in the top of the coil on the cotton, and a drip in the 2 holes on the sides. I just didn't do your method with firing the coil without a tank. I will try your way on the next coil. I...

    New Vaper - trying to quit smoking

    Last night on the car ride home I chain vaped almost the entire commute on the Subox. I vaped way too much with 18mg i have been using in the EVOD/T3S and got a little woosy. I was playing with the air flow setting, and the wattage most of the ride, trying to figure out what I like best. A...

    New Vaper - trying to quit smoking

    I was thinking that 2 batteries would be enough, but you're probably right. I will purchase a 3rd on my next order. For dapening a new coil, do you mean connecting it to the Base without a tank, and connecting the base to the mod. Then you are firing it and priming it without a tank to make...

    New Vaper - trying to quit smoking

    Thanks for the great advice!!! As far as juice goes, the options are seemingly endless, and to be honest, a bit overwhelming. I had a much easier time choosing the HW than I did my first juice purchase.

    New Vaper - trying to quit smoking

    I do not plan on sub ohm'ing (sp?), at least not yet, but I am glad that the market has inexpensive options (like the subox) that allow for both. I am planning on using the 1.5 coils, and the replacement coils that I purchased are 1.5. The one piece of hardware that I am trying to figure out...
