NEED Smok Hyper SRT II HELP!!!!!!!!!!

[kingdm]

OK, so I know I'm a chain vaper but after 3 puffs on a factory wick it is burnt up, I'm only running 33% VG @ 3.5 volts. So far I've gone through all the wicks that came with it, I have even dripped on it after it was saturated just to make sure. What am I doing wrong?!?!?!?!?! I have 20' of 2mm silica wick and 100' of 32g Kanthal A1 on it's way but if it is going to be like this, RBAs are not for me...... Any help would be VERY appreciated.

I've found that the factory wicks are kinda slow when it comes to wicking, they seems to be braided tightly, then coiled to tight.
You should have better luck once you change out the wick and coil.

Cheers DJ,
so when my kanthal comes in, the idea is to not wrap the loosely woven after market wick too tight and the capillary action should be more expedient? Under heavy vaping conditions, on average what kind of life can I expect from these silica wicks? I am once again encouraged and hopefull, once I get the single u-wick down I will attempt duals to try for that massive TH that I like.

I get 3-4 weeks out of a coil but that can vary depending on the juice, sweeter or darker juices will gunk up the coil and wick quicker than clear or less sweet juice.

Brilliant, cheers DJ
