That's partly why I made it my signature line -- at least for a while!
And Ryan Gosling .... just because.

Well if that's what we're doing today, then...

Are the coils official eleaf coils or the cheap knockoffs floating around (ie on Fasttech and whatnot)? Those are really sketchy and have janked up leads. See if the package has the scratch off authenticity code... and that it checks out online. If these are clones, I'd be willing to say that's the issue.
With respect, Horsefeathers! I alternate among four GS tanks, and when a coil needs replacing I pop in a new one. Half my coils are Fasttech "super premium" cheap clones, and the other half authentic eleaf coils. The sole difference is that the clones have fewer duds per package. There is no discernable difference in the vape.

I have never had a dud.
There was only the one "chimney-less incident". Some seem to perform/outlast better than others, but never a dud.

Jingles, building coils came from necessity! I needed coils, I had no money! Lol
So how's this for a deal - for every coil I send you to rebuild for me, you get to keep one for yourself! I wouldn't do anything but throw them away anyway.

And one more. You know - in honor of your achievement and all, Lynn.
Do you have that many?
No. Sadly, I have just been tossing them. :facepalm:
But I'll start saving them now. I think right now I might have like 2.
ETA:
Again, though, I'm not in any big hurry. I just want to see what the big hub-bub is all about.

Most of my "duds" were original eleaf coils that came with the tanks and lasted only a day or two. Five months or so of using eleaf coils, I seem to get another that behaves that badly about one in ten coils. Clone coils? I haven't yet had one die in less than two weeks.

None have ever actually died on me yet. They just start to lack in performance; vapor and taste-wise.

Thanks, Lynn! I've wanted to get one for the longest time and couldn't figure out which one would work the best. I'm going to order that one.

In a couple of the stock coils I've had one of the coils to quit so the ohm's were like 2.6-3.1. Unvapable for me.. Lol I think IMRs had that problem too.

A couple of weeks ago, I had a coil suddenly start reading .3 ohms. It gave me the worst burnt hit I've ever had before I checked it. I still can't figure that one out. If one of the coils suddenly broke, you would think the ohms would have went up, not down.

Thanks IMRs!! Have you been in touch with Mud??
No, I'm pretty sure he just said he was going on vacation. I wish I could go for that long. :laugh:

IMRs, that a wrap on your fooosha? Looks nice!!
Yes, thanks. I like it. It went on perfect! From the angle of the pic, it sort of looks like the screen is off center but if your looking at it from the front, it's dead on! That Foosha was put together by somebody that was awake and I've had no problems with the others to this day. The little mini 20 still goes to work with me every day and is working great also. I have another mod with the same wrap, but it has been sleeping since I got hold of all these iSticks. :)

I wish I would have known because, I got just about every known dud that was made. I've had a record breaker with one for 3 days but I have it jacked up to 12 and still can't get a normal hit off it, but it's still at 1.6 ohms. I'll probably be throwing that in the bin tonight.

I've had THE worst luck with them but on the bright side I have a lot of parts to back me up for recoiling. :)
Again, if I would have known about the clones, I would have stock piled them, but I think I'm done buying them for a while. I have about 2 packs left and when they're done, I'll be on a recoiling rampage. :lol:

Welcome back Linda!! I was wondering about you the other day. :)
