I'm vaping at 11 watts @ .44Ohms. Seriously burned hits no matter what I do. What tank should I get? I'm pretty sure the damn chimney is choking off the wicking holes. I can't believe the idiots who say Joyetech CLR coils works well with the Mega One. I can't see this being possible. So frustrated.

Here's a pic of me adding cotton bacon v2, I doubt I'm doing anything wrong, but here you go:

Just to be clear, this is your rebuilt coil and not how it came originally?

If so, did it work before rebuilding?

I don't have the mega, but I use the clr coils with the maxi, the 1.8 mil, the tron, the wismec amor, and the egrip v3. No problems with any of those.

I re-wicked with cotton bacon v2, I didn't swap out the coil. Using it on the mega one and it's dry hit city. I have a feeling the wicking holes get choked off by the chimney. It was happening with the pre-installed wick, but it's worse when I re-wicked. It doesn't look like I'm doing anything wrong. Really frustrating.

I get your frustration, but having used the CLR coils myself for well over a year without any problems on eGo One Mega tanks, should make me an idiot too. So no matter how i'd try to help you, you'd not believe me. There's too much wick sticking out your coil and Google for 'ego one clr juice flow control ring', but don't believe anything i'm saying.

Gonna re-wick with absolute minimal cotton, but the juice ring is completely down, I made sure of that. I'm using 60/40 strawberry milk from carolina-cloudz. This is so frustrating, I don't see how these clr heads got such great reviews nearly everywhere.

100% flush is too little cotton sticking out. Try some Muji organic cotton, or any organic cotton. Use an ID of 2.5mm, make it look like this:

Make sure the JFC ring (the bottom ring that says 0.5 Ohm) is turned all the way down. Make sure you're not using too much cotton, you should be able to move it back and forth through your coil without any force. Also wash your hands thoroughly with soap, then rinse with hot water, before touching the cotton. Remove the outer (hard surface) layers from the cotton before use.

I too am an idiot as I have no problem with the CLR coil in my mega head and I just use Walmart's cotton balls or cotton facial pads from Dollarama.
Hate you.
Another idiot chiming in. For MTL I have been using the CLR heads on both my Mega and Tron tanks without issue for several months.
Hate you too.

What's your pg/vg ratio for both of you?
