Burnt taste what am I doing wrong?

[Canar]

I have a smoketek VMAx,
I have a cheapVamo,
I also have a provari.

I have beenusing mostly Kanger products (Protank, Protant mini, Kanger bottom coilclearomizer etc)

The atomizers Ihave been buying are the 2.5 or 2.8 ohm.

No matter whatmod I use I need to set it at 3 volts. The only combo that can work regularlythe way I like is the protank with the Provari. Although it is a little airy Ican smoke it a few hits in a row and it works well at 3 volts.

Any othercombination of battery and tank has one hit in it and I have to wait. If I takea second hit fairly quick I get a burnt taste. If I try turning any of thebatteries up higher I get a burnt taste. I keep seeing people running at 5 and6 volts and talking about how great it is. What am I doing wrong here?

I am in searchof the perfect setup yet it continues to elude me.

First off, what mix is your juice vg/pg wise? If its a medium or even high vg mix, you will likely have to modify/rearrange your flavor wicks in your heads. Sounds like you need to remove 1 of the usual 2 that sit on top of the coil/main wick, this will improve juice flow and should cut down/eliminate the dry hits.

Are you familiar with how to open up your PT heads?

Technique...no long hard lung filling drags, it drys out the wick...with no "juice" to vaporize the coils glow red and caramelize/burn the juice

puff puff puff like a pipe or trying to start a 1/2 lit analog, your coils will thank you for it

It is mostly VG. When you sat PT head is that part of the atomizer im getting in the 5 packs for these?

Yes, by head i mean this:



The flavor wicks are almost surely your problem, generally PT/EVOD heads have to 1mm flavor wicks that sit on top of the coil/main wick(3mm), when using thicker juices it is recommended that you remove 1 of the flavor wicks, fluff/replace the other and reassemble.

This video will tell you what to do, ff to 8:50 and he shows the process for opening up the head and removing a flavor wick.

agreed with above.....take one of those flavor wicks out and you should be good.....i vape thicker juices (more VG and Flavor) so without that one extra wick it does pretty good......if you get into rebuilding you can change a lot with the wick in how thick or thin it is to wick better.

Seems really easy. I will try that tonight and report back. Thanks!
