If your getting any leakage or gurgling from you Iclear 30 try this, get a small O-ring drip tip size and add it to the top of the little white nipple that the top cap is supposed to cover. No more leaks or gurgling.

I couldn't even finish reading this stupid review. What's up with your logic in thinking if you let something sit for several hours it's going to change the outcome? And with a dual coil (and I'm going to assume it's 2.1ohms, specify next time and don't assume people read your other reviews because majority don't) you need way more power than 3.3-3.7 volts to get a decent vapor and flavor production. If anytging you might just have a bad coil head. They don't just magically fall from the sky, people/machines assemble those and not every single one will be the same. Dudds here and there are inevitable. But it's not the clearomizer that is bad. Get some new coils.

Can't say if your theory on the volts is correct please refer to the following review:

Actually, I believe he is correct. When you have dual coils, say a 2.1ohm in an iclear 30, even though your ohms meter will read 2.1, the resistance is effectively 4.2. According to a chart or just by taste, you would want to vape that at a much higher wattage than would be provided by 3.3v-3.7v. I tend to vape my iclear 30 and 30s around 8-9 watts, depending on the juice, on my MVP 2. My Vision Spinner just doesn't cut it unless I really crank it up.

What you say makes no sense. If the meter says 2.1 ohms, it's 2.1 ohms. All you can deduce from that and the fact that it's a dual coil is that each coil is either 1.05 ohm if mounted in series, or 4.2 ohms if mounted in parallel, which is of no importance whatsoever. What is important is that a 2.1 ohm dual-coil is designed to dissipate half the power you feed it in each coil. if you push twice as much because you believe the "true" resistance isn't what the meter says, you basically overload both coils. Whether they stand the abuse for very long is another matter.
 
I think it is important, because it is in fact a parallel circuit. If I vape a single 2.0 ohm coil at 3.7v, it is going to put off a pretty warm, thick vapor. If you do the same with a 2.0 ohm dual coil, it will barely be throwing off vapor. For instance, I have an Evod and an Aerotank. Along with their packaging came a card that suggests the recommended voltage for best results. For a 2 ohm single coil, it suggests 3.4-3.6v to achieve the best vape without burning up your coil. For a 2 ohm dual coil, it suggests 3.7-5.5v. 5.5v would completely fry that single coil. That's because the effective ohms are double that of the readout.
