A little frustrated!

So i brought the apollo vtube v3 and the mvp but thats not here yet.
Charged up the vtube today, picked the 2.4ohm coil on the pro tank 2, half filled it up had a few good draws good amount of vape adjusted the watts an volts settled on 4v at 8w as recommended. Was still getting good vapes but after two or 3 i get virtually no vapor to blow out? Tastes medium strong but just hardly any vapour now not matter how i adjust the settings? Whats happend?

Sounds like an issue with the juice not wicking fast enough

When you change to a new coil or refill an new tank you often need to prime your coil to get the new eliquid flowing into the coil. To prime a coil just take a few draws WITHOUT engaging the battery.

If it's a stock Protank coil, take one or both flavor wicks out. It will help the juice flow more easily to the coil.



(don't know if you know what I'm talking about. It starts at about 1:45.

See if that helps!

Followed the video exactly except the wocks on mine were two horizontally over the coil, removed one put back together and started to leak from everywhere! Cleaned it all up and started checking a new 2.2ohm coil the wicks looked fine so put it all back together filled up with cherry lemonade and is now smashing it! Perfect vape everytime very happy! Thanks for all you help as always!

silica wick doesn't wick as fast as cotton;

why I used stock coils with silica wicks I'd hardly go over 5 watts;
my liquids are high vg, so they wick on the slow side also.

some people also flip the silicone cap over so that it doesn't press down on the wicks.

Also, some people replace the flavor wicks with white cotton yarn. I think it's Peaches and crème (or something like that). You can get it at Walmart.

Be careful, taking 2 out caused me leakage and gurgling.

If they were stock coils I took one out. Once I started rebuilding them I took both out. I wicked the coil with a bit more cotton than the stock silica and it sealed the holes and kept it from leaking and gurgling.
