Hey, I just got the Endura Endura T18 vape pen. I filled the tank and let it stand for 10 minutes but when I vaped (for the first time) it tasted burnt. The coil is not supposed to be primed (my boyfriend ruined the first coil by doing that) so I have no idea why it tastes like that, does anyone know?
Burnt taste from new coil

Take pulls without pressing the fire button to create a vacuum and get the juice flowing and then short quick pulls with power until the vapor starts to improve. I don't own one myself but that may help. Welcome to the forum! 
How do you 'ruin' a coil head by priming it?
It's still priming a head by leaving it in a full tank for 10 minutes and taking a few unpowered pulls on it before firing it.
It's also a good idea to start at a lower power (when applicable) and to work up to where you like it over the course of your first full tank or so.

Hi @Jondis.
Any coil can & should be primed (within reason, not making it too wet).
Now... there is an outside chance you're experiencing something that I once found with iClear30S coils, which are more or less the same except you have cotton filler, not silicone strands.
I had some where a bit of plastic in the top of the 'cartridge' (atomizer) section was melting. It was nasty. In the 6 months I used these, I had it three times.
It's possible... and a long shot... but worth mentioning.

The coil is NOT supposed to be primed and when he did it didn't produce any vapour at all. I've tried taking unpowered pulls but it doesn't change the taste. Also you can't change the power on an Endura t18
When the coil was primed it didn't produce any vapour. What's the difference between cotton filler and silicone strands?
Did you change out the coil? Once a coil is burnt the taste doesn't go away.
Did it still 'crackle' and show that it was making contact with the mod?
What is the pg/vg ratio of your eliquid? Higher vg takes longer to saturate the coil. You may need to lower your vg, or let it sit longer to fully saturate the coil so that it does not burn.
Jondis,

I don't have another one since that was the extra, but I'm going to order some more tomorrow. The coil was most likely just a dud.
