Maybe the wicking is not ideal or your liquid is a little on the thick side.
Maybe your mod just fires a little hotter than it's showing on the display. A lot of them have some deviation at some resistance level. Simply dont go there (25w) with your current coil, tank & mod.
If it tastes fine at 20W just vape it at 20 :) No rule stipulates your mod needs to be at 25w and your battery life will be better also as a bonus.

So I am vape them for days the tank is full of juice primed properly, I can go up to 20w with no burnt taste as soon as I get up to 25w I get burnt tastes... And these could are recommended from 25w-35w it happened to all of my coils I'm using the apex with my cool fire IV plus

Brother. Sometimes they cram too much cotton in the coil and it can't wick properly.

That's the problem with premade coils and why I use RTAs instead of tanks. Kanger had the same problem when I used the Subtank Nano.

    If different coils all result in about the same power limit, it probably has to do with how much air you are pulling through. For example, if you reach a point that opening the airflow wider doesn't increase the amount of air you want to actually pull through. If your comfortable level results in pulling out heat at a rate of 20 watts, the only way to increase power handling beyond that point is to increase inefficiency. Even a giant coil will tend to eventually overheat if the heat being removed is less than the power going into it.

    It's not what I expected.

    The needle in the wick is worth a try. If it doesn't work, stay under 25 watts. Some juice flavors, particularly complex ones, like cooler temps. Other than that, your only option would be to change tanks. Learning to build your own puts you in control of all the factors.

    AMEN!!!!

    If the FDA deeming regulations go into effect you have a few months to stockpile nicotine, mods that use 18550 batteries, RDAs or RTAs flavoring, vaping wire, etc. Learn to build and learn to DIY juice. There are dozens instructional vids on YouTube for both..

    I will put it bluntly. If you don't get outside your comfort zone vaping is going to go away unless you like 8 year old vaping technology. One of the rules no tanks that hold more than 2 ml of juice and Ego batteries, and no ejuice higher than 20 mg

    That means your mods, tanks, coils and probably bottles of ejuice

    I am prepared. I am NOT going to the convenience stores for big Tobacco's cigalikes

    I have the same issue with mine, I can barely get it above 20w without burning taste. Which I found odd considering they're rated up to 35. But it performs marvelously at 15-20, and for the price I don't worry about it much.

    And don't worry too much about the vape apocalypse these guys talk about. It's been "going down any day now" since the day I joined the forums and vaping has done nothing but explode with growth.

    Are they taking away juice so for instant I smoke 3mg unicorn milk by cuttwood will they get shut down and is DIY juice expensive or does it save money I would like to get into it

    DIY juice is a lot cheaper. The VG and PG for 30 ml would only be 50 cents Or less.

    There are about a hundred instructional vids on YouTube. That's where I learned, and there isva DIY forum here at ECF. I was DIYing at least 18 months before signing on to ECF.

    Then all you need is a few items.

    Blunt syringes

    Access to a good ejuice calculator. Ejuice me up is a good one.

    Bottles

    Nicotine

    Flavors

    VG and PG.

    I get VG by the gallon and PG by the quart. Always get the USP grade because of higher purity.
