Hi. I need some advice.

Hi all.
I'm hoping to find some insight here. I'm pretty new to vaping, and I've run into an issue that's really irritating me.

I'm using the Inferno pass through and Volcano's juices with the Mega Clearomizers, which I understand are supposed to be good for four or five usess. However, I'm getting a burnt taste after about two and a half uses.
I don't think I'm running them too dry, because I leave about 1/8 inch before refilling, and the wicks are still wet. However, the burned taste has started happening half way through the third use on three Mega Clearomizers in a row.

I chose the Mega Clearomizers because of their capacity and stated lifespan. By my calculations at five uses each a 5 pack should last me about 2 weeks. That's not bad for $11, but if they only last for two uses each my costs will double. I don't know if that's a good value.

I've considered changing to the Inferno Tankomizers, but I've heard that they have issues with wicking, flooding, and flavor loss. I started out with a Magma kit using those Tankomizers which I liked, but the capacity of the little tanks is a definite downside.

i have used that same setup in the past. now the answer you need really can depend on the juice you are using. if its one of their lighter colored juices that isn't very sweet it could be as simple as the seal cup that has the two small fill holes in it is shifting out of place. it can be pulled out gently using a unbent paperclip. realigned and gently put back into place as too not pinch the wicks.

if its a darker or sweeter juice it could just be dirty or clogged which a simple cleaning would resolve this, or it could be the seal issue as well. but darker and sweeter juice will gum up things faster then lighter and non sweet juice. use these videos to clean and dry them up and rather then just 5 uses they will last a really long time.

Thanks, Deleon517. Using the process shown in the video I salvaged two of three, which will get me through the week.

He stated in the video that he just kept going, because you can't burn the wicks. You can warp a casing by getting it too hot though. Lesson learned. Stinks too.

Hopefully, the two I salvaged will probably last a couple of uses. But the smell and time involved will probably regulate this to an emergency measure.

If anyone has a recommendation for a better and cheaper delivery system I'd appreciate the input.

Phoenix Bottom Coil XL from GotVapes. I won't use a top coil again. The bottom coils wick better, taste better, don't leak, easier to clean. IMHO.

AND cheaper.

I would get a vivi nova, its a tank system w/o carto and works great.

That looks good! I'm going to give them a try.
Thanks.
