iClear 30 wicks?

[Jinxxed]

I got a new iTaste MVP v2 with the iClear 30 wick system. How long do the wicks last and how can I tell? I've only used carts and am pretty new to vaping. (if ya'll couldn't tell).

Thanks guys!

Rinse between every few fills and do a little dry burn if vapor production and flavor start to decrease. Once a dry burn doesnt bring it up to par anymore or if you notice the resistance doubles (that means one of the 2 coils failed) replace it.

Depending on how light/clear and clean your liquid is, also how sweet (some sweeteners seem to gunk up on the coil) you should get 3-5 weeks. Sometimes less - especially if you use a dark or gunky liquid.

My coils have lasted a good amount, i'd say maybe 3 almost 4 weeks now. mostly using clear or lightly colored juice. haven't done a dry burn yet. But, when this coil gets a bunked out i'm gonna dry burn this bad boy brittle and replace it with cotton and see how that goes.

I'll tell you when I have actually managed to kill one off.

Got mine on 12/20. Just changed the coil this past Saturday. I vape Heavenly Waffles (Build Your Own!) from Heathers Heavenly Vape
Nicotine Level - 15mg
PG/VG Ratio - 50/50
Add Extra Maple Syrup? - Yes
Add a Fruit? - Blueberries
A little sweet but delish!

Happy Vaping!

Yesh indeedily. Why not? The iClear 30 is nearly impossible to rebuild, don't get me wrong it can be done. It's just more of a hassle to do rather than buying new ones altogether. So that being said, instead of rebulding the coil just put cotton in the place of the silica wick. i've seen it done on the forum somewhere and they " said " it works great! so only 1 way to know for sure. Trial and error
