Dry hits? Or something else?

[Rhein]

Hello. New user here.(sorry if this is the wrong place to post this) So over the past year I've owned an ijust 2 tank, subtank mini, and now a super tank mini from tobeco. And with all these tanks ive experienced something weird that i dont see anyone talk about. During the day they work perfectly fine but as soon as i stop vaping on my device for more than about 30 minutes, i get really nasty dry hits until I've vaped on it for a couple minutes then its back to normal. I even take a few primer puffs before the first couple of uses but i still get dry hits (i assume thats what they are). It takes more time to get it going when it sits overnight. I dont see why this would be happening considering it's being soaked all night and in between uses. Is this normal?

Could be your liquids. If they are really really super sweet and/or savory, could be the sweeteners crystalized on the coil and in the wicking around the coil, once fired the sweeteners are burnt off into carbon. Second if it is acid liquids, you could be burning off the corrosion and the coils (this one store the tank upside down so the coil is not constantly submerged in the liquids to keep the corrosion down).

Thank you for the reply. Ive been looking for answers for awhile now. What kind of liquids or flavors do you think would eleminate this problem?

Let's answer that with another question, what liquids are you using? It will be easier to sort out that way.

If they are very very sweet, I am talking candy sweet or very sugary types of liquids, means there is a lot of sucralose or other sweetener in the liquids. Telling sign of these sweetener content being high, the juice darkens the wicking and if a tank, leeches into the tank liquid darkening it. Caramels, vanillas, creams, custards, bakeries, pies, sweet cinnamon rolls, super super sweet fruits like a fruit cocktail, peaches fall into this category. Acidic flavors, any citrus flavors (orange, grapefruit, lemon, lemonaide, lime, limeaide), hot cinnamon (cinnamon red hots etc), anice (licorices and such), banana fall into the second category
