Thank you for trying rdsok, but that doesn't help as my mini gaskets from GV indeed burn and have no NR wire to speak of.
Notice how in this thread I never mentioned "burnt taste." My stock coil actually burnt into the gasket. The taste is quite unique, its not the 'burnt taste' of the dry hit we all deal with from time to time.

There are enough people, a minority but a significant one, with said issues to spark multiple threads in the modding forum and a co op feeler for replacement gaskets for those that are sick of adding their own NR wire, but want to enjoy the great vape these units can give
Here's the differential dx:
1) different materials on authentic units are being distributed, explaining the discrepancy
2) magic
3) different vaping conditions (not likely, 7 watts on a full tank with full tilt is about as wet as it gets)
I'm truly elated for the people whom these work for without gasket replacement or NR wire modification.
My intention is not to insult GV, I'm a big fan. My intention is to see if I can order this new unit which looks sharp btw, without worrying about ordering more NR wire and/or subjecting more of my gear to autopsy to harvest organs.
Thank you.
