joyetech Evic Vtc Mini w/ Ego One Mega tank - .2 ohm nickel, .4 ohm ti & .5 ohm kanthal coils (problem on all)
bought this starter kit about a week ago, everything was fine for the most part until a few days ago when i upgraded the firmware to 2.0 - had both the battery in the mod and atomizer screwed in while i updated, although i have since downgraded and re upgraded without the atomizer / battery attached.
first thing i noticed was even though the resistance was locked, it would jump up when i am holding the fire button, it didn't do this before - so i looked it up and read that joyetech added live atomizer in the firmware update and that was normal. so i proceeded.
installed a kenthal coil, mod read it .5 as it should, i go to power mode and fire away. flavor and vapor are great at first. later that day i start to get a slight burnt taste. it's not super terrible and not a dry hit (i dont think so anyways, only vaped TC prior to this) but it almost tastes like cigarette filter. i do some searching and realize the .05 ohm ego one coil should only be ran at 25~ watts max. i had been up towards 30, so i attribute the burnt taste to that.
now i switch back to titanium, and after a short period of vaping (5-10) minutes the same thing is happening. not only do i get the slight burnt taste, but barely any vapor as well (at 500-550 f). switched to nickel, and again, the same thing.
if i leave it alone for an hour or so the taste and vapor is fine again for about 15 minutes and the problem repeats itself. when i say fine i mean it is vapeable, the flavor in general has greatly declined since the day i got it.
anybody have this problem? anybody know a solution? does this sound like a mod problem or a tank / coil problem? i ordered a kanger subtank mini some days ago before this started so i hope its just a tank problem. any advice / imput is greatly appreciated.
