Im having issues with this tank and it's frustrating because i love this tank, more then my nautilus. The juice i put in (maplebacco from MLV) always quickly becomes lot darker and thicker and then the flavor becomes fad. I cleaned my tank and put a new atty in it this morning and filled the tank only once and the little bit of juice left has already turned dark brown (usually light color) and as thick as 100VG juice (i vape 50/50). I know darker juices gunk up the coils faster, but 12 hours is a bit exaggerated and its the only tank does that. Also i always vape on 8 watts, i used to have it on 9 and put it back to 8 when i noticed juices was changing color but it hasn't changed anything.

I've done some research and some people claim it comes from the crap on the coils finding its way back in the tank. I noticed after a few puff on it, if i turn it updside down, i can see some darker "filaments" of liquid. Im not sure if simply doing a refill will change anything, now that the coil is used, it will most likely contaminate the juice faster. Anyone else had this kind of issue? Except for that detail, it's my favorite tank, but the coils are just ruining my juice. I also had a atty in once where there was some wick that managed to escape the head, not sure how that happened.
 
I've not had the dark juice issue, but I have had the wick issue. I was told that the first run of coils were made poorly and they have since changed them to stop the wick from coming out. Apparently, the new run of coils looks different. Instead of a round opening where the wick is, it's now more of a slit. At least that's what I've heard. Maybe the new design will fix the other issue you're having as well.

Well it would be odd if it happened only with the aerotank and not the nautilus.


Anything unusual about the ohms of the coil on the aerotank?

Only issues i have with the Nautilus (and always had) is gurgling from the condensation in the shaft, other then that the Nautilus works great. The ohm on the Mega never changed, my itaste V3 always show 2.2/2.1.

I've not had the dark juice issue, but I have had the wick issue. I was told that the first run of coils were made poorly and they have since changed them to stop the wick from coming out.

I heard they changed their coil design as well but its weird, if i go to their website, the only coils listed for the mega are the same as the PT3, the new upgraded coils dont appear at kangeronline. Maybe i should put a PT3 head in it..
