Hey guys. So I was running my aspire nautilus on a clk 1280 and it would get a burnt taste if I went much higher than 4v. It blew up (literally) and now I'm running on a new eleaf istick with my backup pt2. I have a new nautilus on order but was wondering why it seems so many people are running 10w and higher. Is it because I'm using what is probably skunk juice from local store, was it my clk or what? My local juice runs 12.99 on Wednesday for 60 ml so I'm assuming it's skunk juice. Anyone have any thoughts on the reason for this low voltage range for me? Am I missing some vital piece of the puzzle?

Was it at the beginning of a new coil? Often, coils need a couple drops of juice to "prime" it. Once the power button is pushed, things start burning. If there is no juice to protect the coil, it burns. And, the rest of the tank won't taste well either, even if the coil is replaced.

A couple of three drops...If that is the case.

Prices of juice isn't a good reflection of quality. Your taste buds determine that. I find only about 10% make me want to re-buy. The iStick 20 had a lot of problems, but the 30 watt version fixed much.

Hope helps

What kind of problems does it have? I always primed it first so that wasn't it.

I'm currently occasionally getting a burnt taste though in only vaping at 3v. This seems to be the only issue I can discern at the time. Through research It seems the 20w has a problem where it really capes at max voltage regardless of chosen voltage. Did the 30w solve this?
