I'm a vape newb. Just got my Kanger Evod 2 starter pack. Cig free for a day now! Since charging the battery for the first time, one of my thingys is much harder to draw from. What did I do and how do I fix it? Did juice get in somewhere it is not supposed to be? I changed the coil and that did not help. The one I took out was discolored (the wick?) but I put it back in the pack since I don't think anything's wrong it. Any help/insight/advice would be greatly appreciated!

Welcome! Drawing from an e-cig is different than drawing from a cigarette. Typically the draw is much slower and longer.

Are you blocking the Evod Clearomizer's air holes with your fingers while holding it? If you hear gurgling noise you may have some juice in the "chimney" of your clearomizer. If so, unscrew the bottom take out the coil (chimney looking device attached to the base) cover it with a power towel and blow out the juice.

The clearomizer typically need a little "priming" when you first load them also It helps to take a couple of puffs without hitting the firing button to get some juice in the wicks.

There are a lot of good "starter" tips on this site, unfortunately I am not currently in a position where I can provide a link.

Congratulations on making the switch, and enjoy!

Well, I would understand that, and it did take some time to adjust the inhale method, but both are the same model and one has become harder to draw from, the other has not. So it must be something I did. Tho I don't know what. All I've done is refill and charge. Tho I did change the coil as I stated above, to see if maybe that was the prob and it was not. I have been very careful of finger placement, as there are holes in the bottom of battery and the "base". I will try the blowing of the chimney. Thanks

For the coil that has the discolored wick, run it under hot water even through the chimney and then do a dry burn. Youtube has slews of videos showing you how. Coils last anywhere from 1 to 4 weeks depending on the color of the liquid you vape. Dry burning it will extend the wick's usage.

Good luck and welcome to the world of ECF. Congratulations on your new style of living!
