Hello all,
Been vaping for about 4 months now and love it!!. Am currently using an aerotank on a vamo. Just ordered some rebuiladables but it takes a while to get here from the company I ordered. In the meantime, I am having 2 problems with my aerotank and was still planning on using it from time to time.
the first is when I screw down the aerotank on the vamo it says low load, or shows and low ohm reading. I don't screw it down ridiculously tight, but found if I loosen it a bit it will not do this. However, it seems that it wiggles a little and am worried about it wearing my threads.
The second are the coils. I vape quite a bit. I chain vape and go through at least 5ml a day. With that being said, I used to get about a week out of a coil. The last three have only been a few days. I thought it may have been a bad coil, but three in a row? I put the last one in yesterday and already, when I was cleaning the tank and changing the juice, I saw some juice underneath the coil, which from what I have been told, is a sign the coil is ready to go. To clean the tank, I use warm water and I use a wet q-tip to clean the connection under the coil. I stopped really trying to clean the coils because it doesn't seem to do much to prolong them. I have tried taking them apart, cleaning them and dry burning in the past, but that doesn't really seem to help. I also thought it may have been the dark liquid I was vaping the other day, but the last was a light colored flavor, which doesn't seem to gunk up the coils as much. Also, I vape a 50/50 blend. At this rate, I will be out of coils in about a week. Anyone have any ideas?

A friend of mine has a Aerotank mini. Hers doesn't do well with dark juice either. Just the nature of the beast I suppose. Might try a light juice in a 70pg-30vg blend and see what happens. I ordered her two packs of coils just in case. I have to admit though, I really don't mind swinging by her place to fix her Aerotank when it is on the fritz. Gives me a chance to shoot the breeze with the crazy ol' gal. She is a hoot!

Thanks. I may try that. Really just hoping to get through the juice I have with it. Planning on moving to a lower nicotine once I get my rebuildables in. Heard it would be way stronger on them. Unfortunately just bought a little over 200 mls
Of juice at 18. Was also thinking of rebuilding the coils myself on the aero tank. Saw a video and it didn't seem to crazy to do. Have the material already and saved a few of the burnt out coils.
