HACK! Help needed on Clearomizer

[enchantedwonder]

I just purchased a Clearomizer 1.7 for my KGO. I filled it. Every third inhale or more, or less I get a Horrible burnt inhale..... can somebody tell me what I'm doing wrong?

I use the ones for the 510, and I always clean them before I use them.
Then on the silicone piece that has the cutouts on the side, I trim the cutouts back. Be careful and not trim too much though.

This is a Classic sign of a CE2 that Isn't wicking Fast Enough. What Ohms did you buy?

The Easiest fix is to "Tilt" the Battery end Up Slightly and let the e-liquid Pool around the Ceramic Cup while you take a hit.

The /\ tech is a Great Technique.

I posted a DWG of it in the Thread linked above.

BTW - Here is the Classic reply when I tell someone about "Tilting" a CE2...

From your vid, I can see One thing you can do which will make a CE2 hit better.

And that is "Tilt" the PV Up Slightly so the e-Liquid pools around the Cermaic Cup when you take a hit.

Wow. That does work better. Thanks Zman.

Okay, It was a 1.7 Ohms for my KGO. Mine is a little different then this one, but I took it apart and "fluffed the wick" I hope I did it correctly Time will tell. The first couple of draws have been good. Thank so much... I have had some bad cartos and there isn't anything more disappointing then spending money and having it not work. I'll try it today and will update.
Btw.. if anyone else reads this... if it is filled with juice you can't see the wick fyi...

Thank you again!

On quick calculation, you would be getting about 8 watts power at the coil. This is at 3.7 volts; fresh off the charger it would be somewhat higher. This is pushing the limits on what a CE2 clearomizer normally tastes good at. In your case, any mod you can do to improve the wicking will give you the best results. Also, don't waste any time when taking a hit; a good airflow over that hot coil will help.
