Are our factory-made coils being wrapped too tightly?

But anyways, it's fine if all the vendor-employees here dislike my reviews, it doesn't effect me in the least. I don't educate people and tell the truth for popularity with the majority and neither did Martin Luther King...

I don't know, somehow MLK is the last person that comes to mind when reading your "reviews." For me, its the guy at the park who talks to himself and chases away birds...

While I admit, I don't stalk your profile, I have never heard you say much of anything positive about any device, ever. THAT, is why you get so much flak, and you don't get the assistance you want here. This is what gets you credibility, and credibility is what you seem to be lacking. I might suggest telling us about these products that you have liked, and had success with, and WHY they worked for you.

@TheJakeBailey, First off I tried to not take the bait either but I happened to stumble upon more of Mr. Kaczynski's (aka Good News Reviews) ramblings here after making a couple replies to one of his "Bad News" reviews on what is probably one of the top 5 most popular and trouble free clearo's, the iClear 30.

But just in case you haven't gone and read that bit of stellar and un-objective journalism be forewarned he made it very clear that "EVERYONE" on here, all 165,000+ members should know and trust his techniques. And when questioned about his unknow techniques he went on another Kaczynski ramble about how he's explained his techniques a "BILLION" times.

Now other than his rambling about the iClear 30 and this thread here I have not cared enough to take the time to search out his reviews to educate myself with his techniques. I do however after reading his ramblings think that maybe in his 2 months of e-cig forum membership and less than 200 posts he may have his techniques buried somewhere deep within those ramblings but only have a bachelors degree so therefore I'm not "smart" enough to find them once let alone a billion times.

As far as the 75%, I think that most would agree that is completely unfounded, and if it were true, this forum wouldn't even exist.

I'm new to this whole vape thing, tomorrow is my 4 month anniversary however I also have my wife, daughter, future son-in-law, brother in law and 4 co-workers all vaping. With all of that I have acted as the pseudo supplier for all the hardware and in that time I have purchased 3 iClear 30's, literally a dozen+ Vision clearomizers, 2 ProTank 2's, 3 Mini ProTank 2's, an iClear 30S and countless other vaporizers as well as a few dozen replacement coils and so far I have had ONE, I repeat ONE bad coil. That bad coil was a replacement 2.2 ohm for a ProTank 2 and it wouldn't make contact with the positive post. That's it ONE BAD COIL out of somewhere around 40 to 50.

As for all the wicking problems he seems to have, well I run mostly 50PG/50VG with a couple smaller bottles of 90PG/10VG, my wife uses a 10PG/90VG blend all the time and her brother is a cloud chaser using mostly 100VG and none of use have any problem with wicking in stock tanks with stock coils period. I do get an occasional dry hit on my PT2 but that's when I'm hitting it like a freight train on a mechanical mod.

It was honestly the MLK thing that I couldn't walk away from, though I really did try
. I actually saw this thread when it started and just kept my mouth shut.

I did just now read the iclear30 "review", and it seemed to go almost exactly like this one. That piqued my interest, so I did find ONE good "review" about a vendor who sent a bunch of extra product when he complained about a juice. (Still didn't have many good things to say about the product though lol).

The only thing I can say is that I will TRY ignore any additional threads, but I'm not making promises!

Edited to add "" around review.

Ive had no problems with any factory coil across various clearomizers. Sorry troll.

Honestly, in his defense, I'm sure there are legit issues from time to time. I'm equally sure that the same product will work better or or worse due to many other variables. I didn't like the aspire bdc at all, and lots of people seem to love it. But when every product you use is "faulty," you might have to look inward for your solution.

In this particular case, I might just recommend cigarettes. They ALL taste burned by design. ;)

Like the other review, I still think obsessing over a 3 dollar clearo this hard is the real "issue" lol. what do you expect from a 2 dollar a day labor force.

as for the general public not knowing what exists outside a "sub" hobby group. as you seem to call RBA's.
2 things - you need to travel the vape world a little bit more then just ECF (in reality we are but a speck in the vaping community). several European countries have forums just for their side of the world just as diverse AND remember most consumers dont even know what an EGO/clearo is as all they see are njoy kings and blu commercials.

Just when I thought it couldn't get any better when he accused the forum majority on another topic of all being vape shop owners jointly conspiring to trick people to buy defective products, we get yet another gem.

Am I the only one to think now that this OP is just trolling about to see how many of his topics he can get shut down? I mean really, is this guy for real?? Mentioning P. Busardo like he was a close buddy and comparing his efforts on reviewing $2 coils to MLK?? Seriously?? These posts of his are as informative as watching someone trying to chop wood with a rubber mallot, it's amusing at first but it eventually becomes quite sad.

Now he has resorted to talking about juices and talking in such a way that one would think he was referring to a $300 bottle of fine wine. Hint's, note's, undertones. Really I mean come on we're puffing on Propylene Glycol and/or Vegetable Glycerin with some flavor and nicotine added to it, not drinking a glass of wine. If your atomizer is working (which he has yet to get one to work) then it either tastes good or it doesn't.

Maybe I'm the oddball but I don't go to my local B&M and sample juices looking for an earthy undertone with a hint of berry followed by a sweet finish. I grab one of the 100 $2.00 clear's they have prefilled (and by the way, they all work, don't leak and don't burn so the B&M must have went through 400 to get 100 working by Mr. Kaczynski's scientific and trusted numbers) and find a flavor that just tastes good.

Anyway, I'm not going to add him to the ignore list just yet, I'm still amused watching him try to split wood with the rubber mallet. I do hope that all of the vendors get a chance to see this reviewers "expert" reviews and stop sending him free merchandise trying to fix a problem that is not theirs to begin with. I do understand that "good news" travels across the table and "bad news" travels across the town but sending this person free replacements to try and fix the bad news is just costing them money. They can't fix the problem on their end other than to just ignore him.

Agreed on all points. But I will try to make this the last thread I comment on. It's jut frustrating to see people TRY to help, and then be told that they are either lying, ignorant/stupid, or unrefined. I honestly do think that these threads are damaging to the new vapors he claims to be helping.

I agree about the posts being damaging to new vapers looking for information. One could only hope that when they search and land on one of his so called trusted and expert review they look at his profile and see that #1 he's new to the site and #2 he's only got a few posts. I stumbled upon one of his reviews looking for other peoples opinions on the iClear 30S that I had just got. His so-called review of the regular iClear 30 was completely 180 degrees off from my own personal experience and the experience of almost everyone I have talked to with one.

I made the suggestion that after reading and watching 100's of reviews that the problem might not be with the products but rather with the reviewer, he never responded but never missed a beat in continuing on trashing vendors that are highly regarded here on ECF.

How can one person get a dud of EVERYTHING from $3.00 clearo's to coils to juice when the rest of the 16x,xxx people on here have almost no problems. And how can one person have so many problems with a $3.00 clearo that millions of people buy and they work just fine??

me thinks he should just try a plain ol' carto if wicking seems to be such a problem for him,,,,,,

I am a chain vaper,,,,,,,I vape from 14-20 ml a day (been cutting down to 14 lately!), and I have hardly EVER had a problem with wicking in the Iclear30,,,,,,

having said that, I hate the CEs,,,,,ANY OF THEM,,,,can't stand them,,so many people LOVE them however,,,so there ARE personal differences that just can't be explained,,,,,,other than to say it's ME, not necessarily the device,,,,,,

so OP,,,,,,do yourself a favor and just get some regular ol' blank cartos and fill them yourself,,,,,,,if it starts to taste burnt,,,,,,,,add more liquid.

period.

Now that's funny, him with a carto, something that requires proper filling. I can see the novel length complaints already.

Oh... god... no...

Poor 'lil dude must have a hell of a time selecting a toilet paper. Probably just gave up on that one - you know he could find 500 things wrong in the paper products aisle - and has been holding it in for years now. Which would explain a lot.
