I'm assuming you are a relatively new vaper from the equipment that you are asking about. You are using a first generation juice attachment (e-smart 808 clearomizer). Many of us long-time vapers started out using those, and compared to current third generation juice attachments, they just simply "suck".

Your clearomizer is using silica wicks to bring e-liquid to the heating coil. Silica is an inferior wicking material compared to cotton, which the vast majority of tanks currently use. There's a reason why these are so cheap, hardly anyone uses these any more. My advice would be to upgrade your setup to technology that is something more current.

Good Starter Setups for a Beginner Vaper
  • Typical starter setups recommended for a new vaper.
Proper Terminology: Is it a carto, a tank, or what? A Guide to Juice Delivery Devices
  • A picture dictionary for beginners with descriptions of clearomizers, nano's, drip atomizers, bottom feeding mods, cartomizers, cartotanks, and RBA's (rebuildable atomizers). Includes video demos/reviews of all devices.
Advancing Up the Vaping Ladder
  • From cigalike batteries, to eGo's, to mods. Another picture dictionary of terminology and form factors for beginning vapers.

But since you already have these on hand, I'll suggest some things that might help your problem.

From what I can tell, if the clearomizers can make an electrical connection to your battery and fire the coil, then they are compatible with one another. You have to "prime" the wicks in the clearomizer with e-liquid prior to filling the tanks with e-liquid, in case you weren't doing this. An inadequately primed tank may cause a burning smell, because a dry wick will cause the coil to "dry burn".

I have found when using 808 clearomizers such as e-smart or kanger T4's
they may have a harsh metallic taste until the coil tempers. 99.99% of
the time this taste is gone after the first quarter tank is used. After that
there good until replacement is necessary. Waiting ten or so minutes
before using on first use helps immensely.

E-smarts are disposable, I don't think they make one where you can get to the wick to
prime it.
Remove the drip tip. You can remove the top cap of the atomizer
with needle nose pliers. Be careful not to dislodge or lose the
piece of wick laying on top of the coiled wick.(primer wick)
Reassemble.
