How long does it take for a medium dark, fairly thick 30/70 juice to wick?

Or maybe it's my tank that's the problem? I'm using my t3s with a 1.8ohm coil. I let it sit for about 20-25 minutes after I filled it. At first I tried it on my 900mhz ego battery. It gave me a slight buttery taste (it's a vanilla custard flavor) and a slight burnt taste. I then switched it over to my MVP and it got rid of the burnt taste but still only a hint at butter. I just tried this flavor last night before I bought it. It was fairly complex but the nice vanilla flavor showed through which is what I wanted. A decent vanilla that I enjoyed.

According to the guy at the vape shop they let their juice steep for a week before they sell them so I know it's at least had that much steeping. Not sure what's going on.

Thanks in advance for any help.

I've read where some people pull one of the flavor wicks out of the coils for thicker juices on the kanger tanks. Owner of B&M showed me last night, but haven't tried it personally.

I'll try my best to explain it. The coil should pull apart approximately where the plastic ring is at. Doing this should expose the 2 wick fibers and the one wrapped on the bottom. Remove the top one and re-assemble the coil and try vaping again.

You could give this a try...let me know how it works for you if you do.

Is your battery a regular eGo, not a vv? If so, it's 3.3v--perfect for your 1.8Ω coils--it vapes at about 6 watts. :)

If your juice is too thick, you can thin it out a bit--just a add a drop or two of distilled water per ml and mix well.

BTW, it's 900 mAh (capacity), not mhz.

The thicker the juice, the longer it takes for wick saturation. Try taking a few hard hits without pressing the fire button, then vape it. You might have to do a primer hit here and there if it's really thick.

Tried this a couple of times, cranked it up to 7, then 8 watts and much better :). Have had the same juice in my MVP since I got it so I forgot about that nifty little feature.

Thank you Katya for the mAh clarification. Still trying to get used to this vaping business lol.

Thanks all for the help!
