I think I'm doing something wrong.

[Eric Renfrow]

I haven't been vaping very long and I have a problem with going through atomizers too quickly.
I don't know if I'm doing something wrong or what. I've been going through about 2 atomizers
A week and buying them in a store here in Arkansas they are like 3 something a piece.
Which is still cheaper than buying cigarettes but not by enough. How long is an atomizer
Ment to last and what can I do to make them last longer?
Using evod tank and 2.2oms atomizer. They taste great for like half a day. I clean them
Like I've read to do and everything but I still go through them quickly. Any advise

Time it takes to go through them will depend on how much you vape and juice type.

If you dry burn the coils they will perform better and last longer.

This. Also, this has been happening a lot lately with certain tanks. What tank are you using?

Get a mechanical mod with an rda. They make tank styles and drippers. I vape between .20-.35 ohms. Some people dont like the hot vape but it chucks more vapor in one hit compared to like 10 hits off a protank. Its more then vaping, its also a hobby.

I've tried dry burning and soaking them in alcohol but they just don't seem to hold together well
I do believe the cheap juice I get from the store is part of the problem but at the moment its my
Only option. And I do vape pretty much constantly. I just was wondering if there was a better way to maintain
The coil or atleast keep the great fresh atomizer taste longer.

Evod 1st generation tank. Was thinking of switching to a protank3 next but doil coil
Seems imposible to rebuild or maintain

I run my 24 gauge coils for a month with no problems. Just re wick my cotton every few days. Depending on how clean the juice vapes. The darker the juice the more gunk in the atomizers.

You might want to consider learning to rebuild the heads. It isn't as difficult as it may sound and you will be able to use better materials. There are lots of tutorials on youtube and here on the forum about rebuilding. If you don't feel quite ready to try it, just put the old heads in a box for later.

Bad suggestion for a newcomer IMO, especially when they specifically asked about a clearo.

For the OP, a lot depends on how much you vape, and what juice you vape. Dark sweet juice and high-VG burns your coils out faster.

So are u using a home made atomizer?

 

[grannysocks]

Yea definitely disregard everything I just said. Vision spinner 2 with a protank mini 3. Lol.

Was that directed at me? The heads aren't homemade, they are the same ones you buy, it's just that you take them apart and rebuild the coil inside.

ETA: This is a pretty good demonstration. There are also videos on youtube.

Not sure who the question was aimed at since many of us here rebuild. But maybe instead of showing off our dual coils, we could help with the Evod issue?!

Like said above dark liquids especially desrt flavors since they probably contain sweeteners and vanilla flavors even if the liquid isn't dark kills coils. It may be the type of coils you're using? Evod is made my Kanger if I remember and if the quality is similar to protank coils they're not the best life coils in my experience although the protank 3 may be better, but I never tried it.

Just trying to get him to see the vape world before wasting money buying crap coils and junk pens. Just my 2 cents.

 

[The Ocelot]

The EVOD and Protanks 1-2 use the same coils. The P3 is a dual coil. I've never used the P3, since it would involve buying a new tank and I went in a different direction with my gear.

I think you are on the wrong thread. I quit just fine with a standard eGo and carto tanks. People have been vaping far longer than RDAs even existed.
