Ejuice burning

[Leon1972]

So are higher quality ejuice brands capable of higher voltages without burning? I purchased a 20w istick without knowing about the lack of step down voltage and now all my juice burns. It's dirt juice from a local shop though. Will a premium juice hold up better under higher voltages?

Probably Not.

e-Liquids (any e-Liquid) taste Burnt when the Wicking to the Coil Wire can not keep up with the Amount of e-Liquid that is being Vaporized.

There are Only Three Cures that I know of that will Prevent a person from getting a Burnt Tasting hit for a Given Flavored e-Liquid.

Increase Wicking.

or

Increase Air Flow.

or

Decrease the amount of Heat at the Coil.


Buying a "Higher Quality" e-Liquid will probably do Little if One or More of the Above Mentioned Techniques is Not Done.

What atty are you using?

Ok. Glad I have a nautilus mini on its way then. Oter than superior flavo r are there any other advantages to a "premium" liquid versus my local shop made liquids

Currently, my piece o crap pt2 @2.8 ohms. Waiting on my replacement nautilus mini and 1.8ohm bvc coils.
May eventually add the kanger subtank if the nasty doesn't workout well.

besides taste and supposed "consistancy" - personally see no difference

a protank, is "ancient" in design compared to the istick - the lack of propper airflow for higher wattages, makes the PT practicaly un-useable on the istick.

i was using an evod before i got my istick so i put that on the istick when i got it - it definatly over powers, but the "best i could do" without ruining the coil/flavor of juice was to leave the istick set at 3V when using the evod.

the nautilus should be "perfect" for the istick from what people(who one both istick and nauty) keep preaching

Certian flavoring dont do good at high wattages. Cocoa and cinnamon come to mind.

The problem may be a combination of vape style and topper. When smoking we take hard short puffs. The same style will cause burned liquid because the flow of the liquid cannot keep up. Vape with long gentle puffs to see if it makes a difference.

The topper can make a significant difference. I have several iStick 20w. When using a plastic Aspire CE5 anything but the slowest gentle puff will cause the liquid to burn. The licorice I use burns the quickest. Aspire K1s, which have thinner glass and metal than the Aspire Nautilus mini, are in the middle as far as burning. I prefer the K1 for flavors such as Creme de Menthe as it is a flavor that I do not want to vape vigorously. The Aspire Nautilus mini is a perfect match for the iStick 20w. A good balance by allowing a relatively strong steady inhale. I think the volume, thicker metal and glass absorb some of the heat. The adjustable air flow certainly helps. It may also be the design of the Nautilus coils. Overall, more of the ECF iStick member may be using the Naut. mini than any other topper.Some of the experienced people on the Eleaf iStick thread are reporting success with the Eleaf GS Air.

Just because a product may be considered older technology does not mean it is junk. The latest may also not be the greatest. When using these you may need to adjust your style more than you would do otherwise.

The heating problem of the iStick 20w has been fixed on the iStick 30w. When set a 3V the 20w is putting out 4.1V. It levels out as the voltage gets higher.The 30w also has better 510 threads and pin.

Aspire is coming out with new coils. They have larger air holes and cotton wicking. They are just now entering the US market. There is nothing on the boxes to indicate they have the improved coils. If you go with Aspire get one box of coils. Then, watch sites to see if the vendors note they have the new coils.

ETA: Eciggity reportedly has the new Aspire coils.
Eciggity!

That's your problem.

You'll have a much better time with the Nautilus and BVC coils.
