Ejuice gets reallllllly dark after afew hours

[Nathanael Psk]

Hi, im vaping a vanilla dream from mov and it's been sitting in a new carto tank and afew hours(1-4) it changes to a really dark color ive cleaned it out on refill every time but it still does it...

I'm a newbie also, but I think the flavors are steeping. I'm not 100% sure tho, so don't hold me against it lol.

My diy vanilla gets darker and darker with time. Heating will speed up the process.
With clearos I'll simply dump out the last mil. or so after a few days use and rinse,
clean, dryburn and replace the wick. With a carto though it may just be that it'll need replacing when performance/flavour/wicking wanes to unacceptable levels.

The colour isn't a big deal so long as it's still performing well.imho.

dont dark colors coat the coil and reduce preformance? happened tew my hh357

It is probably the heat from the coil making it carmelize and get dark - my sweet juices turn dark in about the same amount of time (or less, if I am chain vaping. Wait, I am always chain vaping, good thing I am down to 3mg)

yeah, it happens a lot to my darker liquids in tanks and atty setup. They will gunk up the coils faster and sit on there being reburned, when your liquid mixes with the darker liquid on the coils from being burned so much. Nothing to worry about, just might need replacing a lot sooner than lighter liquids.

Not sure if this is a factor I noticed with my Higher Nic Juice even Clear ones they tend to darken throughout the day especially if i accidentally leave it in the Car

Underpowered coil.

If you dont heat your coil sufficiently, you boil some of the juice instead of vaporizing it. Boiled juice will condense and change into dark color. It stays in your wick/ carto filler, so it gradually seeps out into your new juice.

Crank up the power.

This just happens. I've had several juices from different vendors in all kinds of attys/tanks and they all get darker. It doesn't change the flavor so I don't really pay it much mind.

I run a 2ohm Protank at 7.5 watts. That's on the high end according to most charts.

The washbacks will always happen, clearly. But with sufficient power it will happen much less and the jice will get much less dark than i would underpowered.

Side note, resistance does not mean anything if you are speaking in terms of wattage. Meaning saying "2 ohm 7.5 watts" or "0.2 ohm 7.5 watts" are the same thing.
