So I have the kangertech nano and I've been having some issues lately. I've only had it for a little over a week. I was having a burnt taste so I thought I may need to change my adomizer and did so. After I changed the adomizer it wasn't working. I was having no pull and it was flashing 9.9 ohms. I'm smoking at 15.0 watts. I took it back to the store I bought it from and they fixed it. Etleast for a little bit. They said that when I put the new adomizer in that I didn't do it right and I saw that after they fixed it. They said I left a gap and that's why I was having no pull. But just a couple hours later it started doing all of the same things. Someone please help.

howdy! and welcome!

couple of quick questions - which coil are you using in the subtank? if you are vaping at 15 watts, i am guessing the 1.5ohm coil?

also, what are the nic level and pg/vg ratio on the eliquid you are vaping and how do you have airflow set (wide open? halfway?)

to Esoterica's point, also keep in mind, vaping is NOT smoking - you are going to kind of re-learn how to hit it - but it WILL be worth it...

in regards to putting the coil head in (atomizer), you want to snug it down finger tight - don't try to crank it down too tight, or you can deform the silicone o-ring underneath it and this can lead to leaking issues... also, whenever you put a new coil in, you want to make sure you are priming it well - i typically will put a couple drops of juice in each of the wicking holes on the sides and let em soak in, couple-three drops into cotton from top of coil, then a couple more in side holes... fill tank, reassemble, let it sit for a minute... then i usually do a couple of primer puffs on it (close airflow ring, no power, take a couple of slow drags on it and look for airbubbles coming up from wicking holes inside tank)... generally, to be on safe side, i will give it a couple more minutes to make sure that wicking is good and saturated before firing it up... with a new coil, may want to start a little lower on wattage (like 9-10 watts, take a couple puffs, crank wattage up a couple notches, take a couple puffs, till you get to your 'sweet spot')
