I do have a problem that you or anyone here can help me with. I haven't vaped hardly any this week because 1. Every time I hit it, I cough my head off, 2. I keep getting mouthfuls of liquid with every hit and 3. all of my liquids seem to have an aftertaste like artificial sweetener. I'm using an STM on a Pico at 22W if that tells anyone anything.

Hmmmmm... Not sure about (1.)... I've had that problem, but usually only when I've got a cold or allergy issues.
(2.) May need to up the wattage. It seems like you're not vaporizing as quickly as you're wicking. What is the coil resistance?
(3.) That's a l'il odd... I've had a few juices that were that way, but it turned out to be the juice. Too much sweetener...

Missouri...or the state of Misery.
I had to google-fu Tamora Pierce... a few of those look familiar.

Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman are almost always found on the same book covers. It seems that they co-wrote and/or co-edited much of the series. If you've got a folder with Margaret Weis, then you've got a bunch of awesome books in your tablet. My absolute favorite was the Twins series with Raistlyn and Caramon...
ZOMG THOSE BOOKS ARE AWESOME!!!!

@Kodak I am never one for peer pressure or saying this very often in my life, @Kaezziel is right on this one. You need to reads those books right meow!!!!!
Then, whenever you finish all of those, you can move on to the Sword of Truth series by Terry Goodkind and the Wheel of Time series by Robert Jordan....

Good thing I read fast :D I have folders for Terry Goodkind and Robert Jordan too if I remember. I have about 5,000 books loaded on my tablet and keep adding more every now and again.

Don't ever leave your tablet layin' in your sweet, purple chair.... I just might have to steal it, cause our reading list seems to have MUCH in common! ;)

    I don't know anything about the STM, but is this a new setup for you? Do you have something else you can throw on the Pico and see what happens?

    No. I've been using the STM for months with no problem. I'll put another tank on the Pico although I'm thinking its a problem with the tank, not the mod.

    1. Usually happens to me when my allergies kick in--short light puffs prevents it for me. 2. Not sure what's causing that, but I don't hardly ever go over 15 watts so don't know if the wattage has anything to do with it. 3. Again, allergies usually cause something like this for me only everything always tastes like it's had sour or sweetener added.

    Oh no! I'll make sure that never happens unless we are sharing my purple chair and we can read together ;)

    Yeah, if this is your usual combo with your usual settings I'd lean towards the tank not working right for some reason, most likely the coil but I could be off base.

    And of course I'm assuming the mouthful of juice thing is related to the other issues, but Kaz and Kodak have made some good points. Could you have changed the way you are vaping due to 1 and 3, and somehow that caused 2? I don't know, just spitballing ideas.

    Deal! Then I won't have to steal it... ;)

    Phew....I couldn't live without my tablet and my books. I have the reader that I use synced to my phone so that I can pick up where ever I left off on the tablet when I have doctor's appts and such. It's a nice feature!

    Thanks a bunch folks! I think it was the coil and wick causing number 2. I still haven't figured out No's 1 and 3 though.
