Horrid burnt taste

[Aldo718]

Forgive my ignorance. So I have a mini nautilus w/ a spinner 2, max volts is 4.8. So recently i've been getting a burnt taste from all my flavors so I decided to change the BVC. My original BVC was 1.8 ohms but the store didn't have any more so I got the 1.6ohm bvcs. So as they told me when using a new BVC let it sit for roughly half an hr and inhale it a few times with out the battery. So ok I did that and still I'm getting a burnt taste.

I'm vaping on Ruthless Mandingo primarily, even on the lowest voltage settings I'm getting this terrible taste. It's almost metal like.

Any suggestions would be great, I'm even considering buying a whole new tank.

Buying a whole new tank may solve your problem. I use 5ml PBC tanks and the only time I get burnt hits is when my coil needs to be cleaned or replaced.

I got nothing looked at a video review and looked at some online reviews. The BVC is the only thing you should need to replace when it burns out,,, but I build coils and I don't really do tanks. Try getting a new BVC and see it you can learn how to make it last longer online. and really no wick at all...

Thanks guys, would you guys recommend any good tanks?

I use 5mL PBC Tanks. I got 10 of them. They are very easy to clean and replace/remove/clean coil. They have a glass insert so you can vape any flavor you want. And I have never had a problem with any of them leaking. Also fully topped off they hold around 6ml.

Has your liquid change colors?

Try using new liquid and see if the burnt taste is still there.

Some aspire coils are dead on arrival. Clean tank with alcohol, change coil and try again. It's not the tank. It's the coils.

Did you start at a low voltage when you changed your coil? If not, you may have burnt your juice and gunked up your coil. Try a new coil and start with a low voltage. Slowly move up, vaping a few times on each setting until you taste a little burnt taste. Then back it down .5 to 1 volt. There is nothing wrong with your tank. Could be your Spinner not adjusting the voltage and just putting out max. Do you have a multimeter?

You can try to dry burn the coil to clean it. I did an everclear bath, dry burned it, another everclear bath, then vaped a junk juice till the burnt went away after about 5 puffs and got another week out of that coil. As the above poster stated, start with your voltage low on any new coil and work your way up to work it in and extend coil life. like a few puffs at 3.3, a few at 3.5, 3.8, etc. The bvc has a ceramic wick which is supposed to be temperature proof so the burnt taste should not be the wick, may be burnt juice on the coil, also your coil might have a hot spot and not be right. A half an hour with several primer puffs is enough time to wick fully but you might be able to vape through the burnt taste. Fire it and blow instead of sucking for 3 or 4 full fires. vapor will go out the air hole. Then do several primer puffs. I do that when changing flavors to clear out most of the old flavor for the new one.

I actually had the same problem when I got my mini nautilus, I switched to 50/50 eg/vg and had to get new coils and make sure you let is sit in the tank for about 10 minutes and take a couple dry hits (no power) until you stop seeing bubbles come out, that worked for me at least.

Hope that Helps

I suspect DOA coils. I've seen bad coils out of the box with Kanger and Aspire. Just happened to me with Kanger actually and I thought I was going insane!

 

[jbalduf]

What voltage are you running it at?

 

[Aldo718]

I start out at the lowest 3.3 then move up as the vapor becomes thicker. I seem to have solved the problem some how. I cleaned out my tank, switched juices and left it over night. Seemed to have worked no more burnt taste.

You need to turn the voltage down
Try 3.8-4.2. Volts
Any more than that on that tank
Will most likely always give you a burnt taste

Coils alone wont give you a burnt taste
Unless they been used alot
And have buildup residue

If your getting burnt taste on new coils
Theres only
1 reason

Voltage/power
Is too high
