510 Vision Clearomizer stastes like burning plastic.

So I bought a kit and it came with two 510 vision 3.5 ml cleaomizers....

Well both taste like burning plastic. It is horrible! I use the ego clearos with no problems but both of these are nasty. I have tried using them from 3v to 6v and no change. Anyone else have this problem?

It's been a while, but if memory serves me correctly...
There is a small thin piece of rubber on the inside of the top silicone seal. If it's seated to low/close to the coil or if the coil is not centered, it will burn the seal giving you that burnt rubber taste.
I remember removing the seal and trimming that inside rubber seal slightly. While you have it off, look to see if the coil is centered in the ceramic cup.
I will dig mine up to later to verify, but that's what I remember about these.

Thanks for the help man, I will have to try this later. What do I do if the coil isn't centered? Can I just use a small screwdriver to push it back centered?

 

[skelley]

Yeah, that should work.
I wouldn't recommend removing the outer tube as mine were glued and once that seal was broken, they gave me leaking issues.
Of course mine were the older style and I'm not sure how these are seal at the base.

I know the feeling....
Those Stardust Vision clearo's always have that taste.
Do yourself a favor and get one of these. They are SO MUCH better yet look very similar.
I was chain vaping on one last night and never had one single burnt drag.

Well this isn't the stardust that's doing it. It's the 510 clearos from vision.

I actually have two of the smoktech clearos you linked.
