Idk about the states but Canada banned flavoured juul pods. Only tabacco flavours plus way to expensive.

Yes, the same here. Had no idea they banned them in CA, too.

Might want to look into refillable Juul pods. I have seen them. IIRC, they aren't made by Juul, they are made by other companies. May be hard to find, though.

Is it possible you just have a bad batch of Caliburn coils? How many have you tried so far? Bad factory runs of coils do happen. that's what sucks about factory coils.

Highly doubt the coils are bad that would mean most of the coils I have purchased are bad which is highly unlikely. Juul systems are only made for nic salts I'm pretty sure . Don't think they can handle 70/30 juice

If you can't get your caliburn g to work right and you want something in the same round-about size, you might want to check out the Geekvape Wenax Stylus. I don't know anything about it, but I just came across this video and thought you might want to look into it. It has both a fire button and has auto draw, but the fire button is at the botton so it's fired like an old tube mech mod. You might not like that.

Has almost 2 times the battery capacity. If that's true, that's pretty nice.

Another thing I just thought of. If you really believe that the 70VG is too thick for the Cali G coil head but you don't want to vape 50/50, you could try adding distilled water to your juice to thin it out to roughly the thickness of 50/50. I couldn't tell you how many drops of water to add per bottle of juice or per pod. You would need to ask that in DIY section.

Just make it short and sweet:

I want to make my 70VG juice about as thin as 50VG juice without using more PG. How much distilled water do I add to (X)ml of juice?

Replace X with however much juice you want to thin at one time.

One last thing I drop a couple drops into the coils head itself. Is this fine ? When I fill.tye pod I fill to the rim so the coils already fills with juice just wanna make sure this isn't a problem

OH YES! You should ALWAYS prime your coils heads before you put them in use. Put a couple small drops through the top then a couple on each juice port where you see the cotton.

In the video above for the wenax, you'll see that Matt did that.

    You'll want to ask Kroma-Z and Z-coil users. I don't use them myself. Only suggested it because lots of vapers rave about the pod and those coils these days. I'm sure it can handle higher VG just fine.

    Just realize that the Kroma-Z is alot bigger than a Cali G.

    Did you try poking holes in your Cali G coil's cotton yet?
