Coils Dying After 24 Hours - Need Juice Recommendation

Good afternoon everyone!

I've been using the Geekvape Aegis mod with the Zeus (or whatever they're called) tanks/coils. Always worked great for me. Then one day, my coils started only lasting about 24 - 48hrs before getting the awful burning taste. I had been using the frozen monster, juice monster, and ripe collection juices for quite a while with no problems before this happened. I tried 2 other brands of tanks/coils....same problem. So then I started trying difference juices but continued having the same problems. I finally found 1 brand that gives me more than a week out of a single coil.....Keep It 100 is the only brand I've found that works. I've tried frozen monster, juice monster, ripe collection, sad boy, and vapor fi juices...all with no success. Unfortunately, the Keep It 100 juice is no longer available in my strength at Vapor Fi.

Does anyone have any idea what may be causing this problem for me? Juice suggestions? Anything will help.

Thank you in advance!

Doubtful that any juice is the problem here.
Burned coils come from either 1) watts too high for OHMs 2) not enough airflow
Yeah that was my initial thought too.
1) Only running it at 36 watts on a .2 coil. If I run anything more than 40 watts, it burns up in an hour.
2) The airflow thing is opened up all the way.

Something else I thought of....when a coil goes bad and gives the bad taste, I can pop the top off the tank and put it back on. Doing this allows 1 or 2 hours of tasting great before it goes back to being burnt.

Your Aegis mod could possibly be defective, i.e. delivering more wattage than displayed. My 2¢.
I had that thought as well. Bought a brand new Smok mod. Same exact problem. The ONLY thing that fixes is the problem is the Keep it 100 juice. Doesn't make sense though. I should have many more options of juice than just a single brand.

    I have found that many of the premade liquids and more recently the liquid concentrates seem to include more ingredients like sweeteners and flavour enhancers that gunk up the coils but are designe to make the flavour "more appealing" to the consumer. I am now switching to unflavoured DIY liquids. And am getting 4-5 times minimum more use out of my coils.

    Coils burning out quickly can be frustrating and is often related to the type of e-juice you’re using. High VG (vegetable glycerin) juices, overly sweetened flavors, or poor-quality liquids can clog and damage coils faster. Opt for a 70/30 VG/PG blend and avoid heavily sweetened or dark-colored juices to prolong coil life. Cleaning your tank regularly can also help reduce residue buildup. Keep track of your favorite e-juices and coil performance by using TeraBox MOD APK. You can store notes, product photos, and even guides on maintaining your vape gear, all securely backed up in the cloud for easy access.

    Interesting. First post from a new member. It starts out reading like those AI posts we were getting a while back, then moves on to promoting a cloud storage product.

    Took a quick look at some TeraBox reviews. Overall it was described as rather dodgy. Weak security, slow upload and download, no recovery process. Plus its origins are sketchy. It emerged from a Chinese company, uploaded data is unencrypted and stored in China. Didn't find anyone who recommended using it.
