How long before need to rewick for most ppl? My wick usually lasts about a week before the burnt taste becomes unbearable and i have to change it again. sometimes only a day. am i doing something wrong? my coils are 0.5 - 0.7ohm, vaping at 23W, using subox and subtank mini.

Use rayon for your wicks, then you only need to replace it once every few weeks, or even longer.

Wick last me at least 3 weeks. 5 vape session per weekdays, each session lasting 30min. I rarely vape on weekends. Tip is to always make sure your cotton is puffy enough for liquid to saturate easily.

Have you tried "Starting a Conversation" with @j0ker? He usually does verifications on Sunday night.

Thanks for the tip, new here.

I do get ...... off when I see vapers in the public. They jeopardise the entire vaping community with their antics for looking cool. Just like how smoking may look "cool" especially for those underaged kids, it is not.

do chain vape? seems the cotton got burned.
- check airflow and max it, insufficient airflow may burned the cotton, subox u need to experiment how much cotton works for u to have great airflow and won;t leaked

mine i use TC and 316L dual coil at 0.25ohm on aromamizer, 50w at 320"F depends on juice i sometime push to 400"F. i change monthly LOL. slightly brown. and check yer juice more sugar and sweet it is the more gunkier it gets.

Is 5 wraps too few? Maybe more wraps will help.

I found that for some juices on a clapton build in my Serpent Mini, I need to boost up to 30W to get some decent flavour. Other juices taste fine at ard 20-23W.

A request was made to have this be a sticky:
Note: This was not written by me, but by another member.


This serves as a basic guideline for all current vapers locally... suggestions are welcome

• Newbies: Please do not open a new thread every time to ask where to buy PVs/ Juices.
• Do not vape to attract attention
• Do not vape in places where you know analog is already banned, example: Bus Stops, Shopping Centers , public transport, etc
• Do not vape in public locations , if you have to vape, do it stealthily .
• Do not vape in front of uniformed officers. (duh.)
• Do not show off your PV in public
• Please keep your discussion on PV and Juices in ECF only or any other international vaping forum.
• As of above, do not post/advertise about PV and Juices on public local forums / classifieds.
• Always refer to this country as local, don't speak the obvious..
• Do not think that the authorities doesnt know what your PV look like They have a nice collection to show you.
• Do not attempt to bring in PV and E Liquid unless you know how to, unless you wanna contribute to the above mentioned collection.
• Trust no one!! Anyone can be a plainclothes officer from gov whahahhahahaa
• And most importantly, DO NOT PICK UP VAPING BECAUSE ITS COOL OR ALL YOUR FRIENDS DO IT. (If you are not a analog smoker)

Now, please see :
Newbies Q&A Thread. [PLEASE READ] | E-Cigarette Forum

Thanks!

Hmmm... Could that be just a bit too thin? What resistance are you getting on that and how many turns?

 

[Simon Templar Christopher]

yeah..way too thin...and indeed: I get 2ohms with 3/4 turns (?!).
I'll try again.
Thanks.
