I've tried changing coils multiple times but it hasn't worked. It's been tasting kinda nasty for about a week. I turned my wattage all the way down to 5w with no luck. I cleaned the tank and everything as well. It's an istick 40w with a melo 2 tank charging with a cord that barely lasts 30 mins at a time. I chain vape. But I've taken some breaks and it still hasn't helped.

If you still smoke and vape (dual user), I remember my vape would always have a slight burnt taste to it, especially after having a smoke.

Another thing is I vape a lot of coffee vapes. And some of them have a slight burnt taste to them too. Probably from over roasted coffee beans flavoring. I don't know what other flavorings can taste like this, but there might be others.

if it's a burnt taste your getting after a few days then keep in mind that pre made coil heads don't last long in general. especially sub ohm heads, though I hear the new mesh kinds are better.

rdas are the way to go with sub ohm vaping. no need to build coils either, grab a pack of coilology 7in1 and you'll be set for a couple years.

as far as vapers tongue goes, that could be part of it. I have to switch juices every two days, at that point the juice has no flavor anymore.

I genuinely believe you are killing off coils fast due to overly sweet juices and chain vaping. Chain vaping (unless in TC mode) can REALLY shorten coil life. The sweet probably doesn't help anything.

If you do get another mod, keep this one in rotation and clean EVERYTHING up to possibly replacing any 0-rings, that burnt taste can really get into crevices and whatnot. Maybe try some less sweet juice.

If you can/if you can afford it, try to get a reasonably decent mod that does temp control it will stop coils from reaching overly heated temperatures, but that means you need an RTA where you can build your own TC material coil (I think the majority of folks these days are using stainless steel).

If you are a sub0hm vaper I think the Crown Uwell coil offers a TC capable coil, I stand ready to be corrected on that though.

If you are a mid range vaper I WANT to say that the joytech CLR coil offers a 0.5 resistance that is TC capable (again, ready to stand to be corrected on that) but here's a thread on the coil and the multiplicity of tanks that take it. Here's a thread on that coil if you are interested: eGo ONE tank series – CLR coil

I believe Vapresso offers some TC capable coils, too.

If you are a MTL vaper, meaning higher resistance and lower vapor output with a cigarette style draw, I think options are more limited unless you want to rebuild. I want to say that the Innoken Zenith (which is a great tank and the current coils DO last forever, and I mean forever, I had one I was TRYING to kill off for weeks) and it's a nice option because it's larger (4 ml) and maybe the newest coil is TC capable, I haven't checked the specs yet.

It could be vapers tongue, it most certainly could, it could also be that your mind is tricking you to think that tank will taste "Burnt" because it has for a while. I'd say the other possibilities are more likely but I am also not inhabiting your consciousness so I really don't know.

Good luck and a TC capable mod does NOT have to be overly expensive, a DNA mod, or anything else. There are some great lower budget options out there too.

I was going to pick up the voopoo too kit. Will this be ok?

Now my vape has no taste to me at all! Maybe this is my pallet? I have no friends who will test it out for me. I'll head to the shop tomorrow.

I was suspecting a vaper's tongue of sorts.
You get the burnt flavor stuck in your mouth/nose and mind and can't get it out. Now that you actually have vapers tongue (not tasting anything) I suspect it even more.

Actual burn is nasty and I can't inhale it far, it also gives me a sore throat. The burn taste is nasty but doesn't make the airways want to shut. It's easy to clean out of everything but the wick and mind.
If it's actually burning your puff style may have changed letting your coil get too hot (although you said you turned it down to 5w and still get it so probably not).

For the not tasting part, a new flavor is in order. I suggest menthol something, something with ice or arctic in the name that suggests strong. Not tasting anything is a stage vapers go through. It also happens when one flavor is focused on, and why many vapers have many flavors they switch between.

If you are a sub0hm vaper I think the Crown Uwell coil offers a TC capable coil, I stand ready to be corrected on that though.

I can vouch for at least UWell Crown 1 coils. I don't normally vape stock coils in anything. But I originally bought two Crowns when they first came out (like 2 years ago). I think I tried one stock coil while waiting for the RBAs to arrive so I could build my own coils. Used the RBAs for a couple of years and it was just okay, couldn't match RDAs though. But a few months back I decided to try those stock coils again.

Wow! Not do they only dang near come close to RDA builds, but they last unbelievably long. A lot of people will say they get 2 to 6 weeks out of them. I'd say that sounds about right to me. Although I hate when people say days or weeks, etc. As I have no idea how they vape. I think ml per coil is better. Still not perfect since vaping style and juice could change that a lot too. But it is a better ballpark figure I think. And I am getting between 400 to 500ml per coil. And I can buy those coils for less than 2 bucks each and considering the price of 400-500ml of juice, that's really nothing.

I only use either their Ni200 0.15Ω or their SS316L 0.25Ω dual coils. Both work just fine for me (haven't tried the 0.50Ω or 1.2Ω ones yet). Although using those SS316L coils, they use nickel legs. And if they want to use them for TC, the TCR is different. On the Aegis, a TCR 125 is perfect. On the DNA mods I cheat and just use Replay (75C and 250C has Replay). Although I should create a CSV file for them and upload it my DNA mods to use in TC mode. :)

IDK about the Voopoo too tank, like nothing about it, if it's a kit. I went to the manufacturer's site and it did not say what the coils are made of. I think some like the Uforce tank which is what it comes with. IF you want to vape in TC mode, I would check or google and see if any of the coils are TC capable, meaning the coil heads would be nickel, titanium (MUST be vaped in TC mode) or Stainless steel (can be vaped in either mode) or sometimes, depending on exactly how it's constructed, ceramic.

I would search, IF you want to have TC capable coils. The manufacturer's site kind of made me want the MOD but not the tank.

Crown Uwell Original is going to be a great bet. You CAN purchase your tank and mod separately, 99% of them are interchangeable these days, unless they are pod or All-in-one kits.

Good luck,

Anna
