hmmm... do you vape your zenisis all the time or just here and there. I ask because it could be that the wick has not completely broken in yet. You could also try the tape over the hole in the cap and poking a smaller hole in it. Your vaping style might not be drawing enough liquid up the wick so a smaller air hole might be what you need and the tape method is recommended to test since if that does not help then you may not want to permanently mod your cap.
just a few suggestions
I wouldn't say just here and there, but not exclusively either.
I am willing to admit if the wick is not fully broken in yet.
What I have done:
The upside down and burn, but did I do it enough?
Opened the top of the mesh some.
Turned the hole so it is directly over the wick.
(vapor production greatly improved, but was still getting dry hits every 3rd or 4th hit)
Re-taped over the hole/poked a smaller hole in the tape.
I usually, with other mods, hold the button, draw for 2 or 3 seconds inhale/exhale through nose while drawing for 4 or 5 more seconds. (I like my nic, don't judge me).
With this one, doing that "tasted" wrong, so I have been holding the button, drawing for 2 or 3 seconds and letting the button go.
I intentionally chain vaped after doing all of the above, and while I'm still not getting much taste, vapor is up and I got up to about 10 draws before starting to get a metallic like taste, but I wouldn't call it a dry hit.
This tells me I'm almost there. With this wick/coil anyway. LOL
Damn it Zen, if you tell me all I had to do was move the hole and tape it up a little, I'm gonna kick the dog!
And lorderos, if it's all because I wasn't sucking hard enough....
well, I'm not gonna touch that one.
*no dogs were harmed during the vaping of my ZPV
Thanks for the help guys.... I'm hoping I've got it going this time.
