Herakles spitting, how to fix?

[drinkmixer84]

So I've got a Herakles that I've been loving but recently I'm noticing an issue. After a few vapes @45-55 watts the atomizer becomes hot and I believe what is happening is the juice is thinner so it over saturates and i start to get juice in my mouth on inhales. Once it cools down it vapes fine again (for a few hits).

Any suggestions to resolve this?

Edit: I've also tried a fresh coil and still the same results

Bump for an answer!! Good luck...

So last night I got some vapemail which carried my new drip tip (it's a big wide bore tip). After using it for a bit it seems to be working a lot better, although the odd spitting still happens.

Is airflow wide open or closed off some? Taking a direct lung hit or mouth to lung?

 

[drinkmixer84]

airflow wide open (but I've tried closed off a bit and it doesn't help), and direct lung hits. I notice it really starts happening once the base of the herakles is hot.

 

[Necrotic]

Maybe the coil can't keep up with the juice intake when you direct lung hit. Maybe try mouth to lung?

 

[drinkmixer84]

it seems like i more less can't keep it cool enough because once it gets real hot it just starts dumping juice when i hit it

Well I figured out the solution...So turns out Sense ninja released the Herakles v2, I found a local b&m had one in stock (they didn't even realize they had v2s).
The v1s have a single air hole cutout on the bottom, v2s have two, other than that they're identical.

With the 2 air holes the tank is now perfect. Even after that I'd still recommend this tank to anyone and everyone, it's a much better tank than the other options currently available.

I just got my Herakles today and first impressions are AWESOME! This is after months of using the Atlantis and subtank mini!

You guys are making me want one, what juice ratio do you use, I'd say a 70vg 30pg should work well in this.

My suggestion was a high vg juice.

How about this for a twist , i just got the herakles v2 " dual air holes " a few days ago and its awesome BUT my only issue is the spitting which is bad and using up alot of juice, also a side twist is its happening regardless of wattage, unless i drop it all the way down and happens when the tank is cold or hot "alot worse thor when hot"
AND i only use and make as high of vg juices as i can , enjoy. Really apprecieate any ideas.

So i've had my herakles for a couple months now, I still love it, but one thing i found that really reduces the spitting is using the 0.2 coil. I have an IPV2 and I run it from 68.5 to 70 watts with the 0.2 coil. I also use 80vg/20pg juice which seems to be the best for resolving the spitting issues. I would definitely recommend a wide bore drip tip, as smaller bore drip tips really cause the spitting issue. Also my last trick is i never use the wide open air flow selection, i use the selection just smaller than max air flow (clockwise of max air flow, if looking down the drip tip).

Seems to be working alot better with the air flow adjusted down 1, its spitting alot less now.
