Need some help I got the freemax mpro tank with a quintuple coil in it. I put it in and used it for one day. I've been hitting it on 60watts all day. I turn it up a little to try and and see what it can do and how it would taste. Immediate burnt cotton. And blew the coil. Did I do something wrong or are coils like that prone to just burnout?
Just so you're aware, the higher watts you go for vaper production, the less flavor you're going to get. It's the trade off.
The M Pro is regarded as one of the better subohm tanks on the market atm for DL vapers. The 904L coils are quite hardy and last a long time if used correctly. There have been reports of the coil dry hitting within the first day or so of use, which people automatically correlate with the coil going bad. I would check to make sure you're tipping the tank to the side or even rolling it around to allow the air bubbles forming in the coil to release out of the juice ports. Are you seeing little bubbles flowing out from the coil into your tank after you vape it? The heat is something that simply can't be prevented. Is the tank getting too hot to touch your lips to it? Are you feeling your mod heat up? What is too hot about the tank? The vape you see coming out of the chimney after you vape is the coil cooling down. Kanthal generally has a longer heating period as well as a longer cooling period. There's nothing mechanically adverse about the vape fizzling out after you fire it.
Your coil isn't likely "blown". You may taste some burnt flavoring for a few vapes, but that should go away. I would recommend sticking to 60w if it's working for you. The M4 coil itself ranges up to 110w, but that depends on what the coil is reading for ohms. Also, do you carry your vape around in your pocket, or knock it around at all?
Yeah, I meant generally speaking. Also on the lower ends for wattage with a low ohm coil, less vape means less flavor. The vape volume for me feels more dense or like it has more depth which I've found to be around 45-60w. Above that, the vape feels too hot and I think this leads to a shorter draw. Also, the juice flavor plays a huge part imo, since custardy/cream/milky flavors with added heat seem to be more pleasant than a fruit flavor that's also heated up. Menthol can probably go both ways. This is my biggest gripe when trying to switch to an MTL - I feel like the flavor can be more concentrated, but very quick to dissipate and I think that can be attributed to the lesser density in clouds.
It seems to make your voice sound like Darth VaderI like how my voice sounds like I have a mouth full of cotton when I talk as I exhale that dense vapor. Chicks think it's sexy too.
I will try the rolling the tank around to get bubbles out. It just tasted burnt so I threw it out. But I will keep that in mind. And the metal part at the top where you can slide to add juice and where the tip goes in gets hot and hits my lips sometimes.
Hmm. Are you chain vaping it a lot? Try not pressing your lips to the top cap - instead, cup the drip tip with your lips.
That's what I do sometimes I can feel the heat coming off of the tank.
Yeah, that simply can't be avoided. Try opening up the airflow control a bit to get more air flowing through there. The temperature of the vape coming up through the chimney is what is likely heating up the top cap. Try a lower wattage and see if you are still getting good flavor. For coils from 0.1 to 0.25ish, I vape around 45 to 55w. I get enough flavor and enough clouds for my liking. Keep trying different things at lower wattage - you may find the extra wattage not even necessary.
