Different equipment - burn question from a rookie

[xdamageincx]

Hello,
I am not new to Phbb3 forums (but not able to post to that section due to my newbness LOL) but I am to this forum. I have an Aspire CF VV+ with a mini and my wife has a 900 or 1000mah spinner attached to an Aspire clearomizer.
We have purchased juice from 2 different vendors as well as bought our own 99.7% GV, flavor and Nicotine from Wizard labs.
The question is that she vapes at 3.8 and I 4.3 and both of us are getting almost maple syrup slurry in our rigs on our second day roughly.
From everything I read (and Our original suppliers were 70\30 GV\PG and now even less but it seems to be the same.
We used our coils for 5 days and swapped them out on both- same result.
We did it again with new (our own juice) and same result)
Now we are making only PG juice from Wizard labs flavor and the rest dilutient as the flavor from vodka and see no difference.
It seems we started with tasty flavor and now everything gets burned no matter what we do on both rigs (and a backup 1100 mah 4.3 aspire batt
Something must be wrong with our setup and I cannot figure it out.
SUM-ting-wong
Any ideas?

Sweet flavors or dark juices could do that in a week.

The juices are 5% of the mix- you mean sugar? everything else is clear. Not sure what this means cientifically? I considered making just 100% GV and nicotine. becase the rest is pretty muc less than 5% of the sandwhich

it happens to some of mine too..mostly the sweet ones (that's all I have *lol*)

some are gross..just thick dark amber by the time it gets to the bottom...waste some juice time..I found it makes my resistance go up and then it gunks up my coils.

i make 100% VG i never had problems with my juice, have u checked your set up yet? wick? have you changed it? to much wick/cotton maybe? or maybe it needs a all round clean.

Liquids that taste sweeter than others, or are darker than others tend to gunk up the coils faster. Some people find VG clogs coils faster, some don't. In truth I would say 5 days is a reasonable lifespan for one of those atomizers. I will say I've been building my own coils for awhile now so maybe those coils have improved. Either way when your atomizer creates vapor it does that via heat which will "cook" some liquid near it. Best solution that comes to my mind is how often do you clean the tanks thoroughly? Cleaning is super important.

Nah, I can put a new one in. I have some soaked in vodka. They dont seem to make a difference. It is a bunch of malarkey. Apparently the new stuff isn't any different than the old stuff. Ill send you mine- 100% VG and it will do the same.
Both of our setups are different. The same happens to both of them. It happens the same day that I putmore than .5ml in a 2ml glassomizer and my wife's whose only holds a little more than 1 ml. We tried store bought before making our own= same result.

Furthermore, it didn;t do it at my 3.8V setting or my wife at 3.2V. When we cranked up our vaporizers to their next settings (3.8V wife and 4.3V mine, it started). It will do it in one day, like I mentioned, on a new coil.

So here is my update and it is not what I thought but much better actually!
It turns out I soaked our coils in vodka for a week and we retried them.
It worked but the usefulness was shorter than a new one.
So I decided to do a 2 week rotation.
This worked exponentially better than the first go-'round.
Then there was the 3 week cycle.
We started vaping on halloween.
We are now 8 weeks from there.
We have had 3 coils rotating since the end of october.
The results to us were this:
After 1 week vodka soaking- very little results.
After 2 weeks- about half
after 3 weeks- pretty close to new.
We learned and have a .... load of cartomizers now that we haven;t used yer that if you:
Smoke like we do(hard) for a wekk
Then put that cartomizer in vodka (or another human freiendly chemically favorable solvent like clear alcohol
for another week, you can start a 3 week rotation.
We are well beyond this since we are on our 8 week rotation and have just put back in our 1st coils again.
It seems to me that if you just flush these things out for 2 weeks in vodka you can go through 2 cycles minimum.
= 9 weeks on 3 coils 03 x3 but there seems top be a 2 week cleansing and 1 week usage. It is actually exponential.
W figure at the price we will just start over due to the cheap cost at this point and tracking too many parts but the prook is in the pudding.
I am sure someone has done this but I am getting ready to recycle my first coil right now (my wife is going to move on to a new cycle) and see how this works out .
Most of the products are inert. The ony real issue I can see is the makeup of the coil itself with heavy metal coating
OR, how long you can recirc ciramic fibers in a filter. It will be interesting to see how it pans out but I can say, a new coil doesn;t seem to make a difference but the wrong timed coil does. LOL! but true it isn;t rocket science!

Whatever works, just keep doing it. As long as it keeps you guys from smoking/chewing. Grats on your rotation that works

Screw-in coils/wicks are made to be disposable. When I uses clearos and glassomizers, I found about 10ml to be a reasonable lifespan before I tossed them...
