Ok, so I had a ijust2 with a royal hunter rda all was fine it was pre coiled cause I bought off my sister. I just got a tesla 200w with a mutation x v4 and switched the coils from the royal hunter because not sure how to make them yet. It tastes really bad which I don't understand because I was using the royal hunter on the tesla and it was great but now all of a sudden I'm using the mutation with the tesla and chefs crunch ejuice. It just tastes like bad and chefs crunch is supposedly a good juice. So do you guys think the coils are burnt out or does that happen or what? Keeping it set at 50w because I believe the I just2 is 50-100w

That's not a lot of info to go on. Just for starters, do you happen to know the ohms of the coils? How much wattage are you running on the Tesla? Did you change the wicks? Did you change juice flavors?
Sorry didn't really know what info was needed, yeah changed wick, ohms on tesla said .25 and I'm cycling between 35w and 50w. 50w was great with the royal hunter but now with the mutation it seems way to high. But I'm wondering if it's cause the coils are way overused at this point or if that happens.

35-50 does not seem too high for a coil in the .25 range. I'd have thought that would take 60-70 without much trouble. It may be by increasing the power you have boosted the coil wire temp to the point where it is burning the juice a bit and making it taste bad. Try running the power down to 15-20 watts and see if the taste comes back. If it does, then bump it up by 5 watts or so until it starts to go south again, then back off for the flavor. If that doesn't work, re coil it. You can take it to a vape shop and pay them, or you can buy prefabricated coils on eBay among many other places. Bear in mind also some complex flavor juices really do their best at lower wattages. By the time you get enough power on them for cloud, you have overpowered the subtle flavor hints that make gourmet juices worth the price. You might get a simpler flavor-- peppermint, maybe-- for clouds, or even unflavored.

Thank you man, seemed to help with this flavor seems like it can't handle the high heat like the cuttwood boss reserve I was using before, another question I have is my mod is saying that it's 3.05 volts compared to the other set of Sony vtc4's I have which read at 3.25-3.4 volts and both sets are both fully charged, any ideas?

No not really. How old are those batteries? Full charge should be 4.2 volts. Are you sure you're reading battery voltage and not voltage applied to the atomizer?

If you changed the watts, you will change the voltage supplied to them only if the screen is reading them in current time. Lower watts equals less volts being supplied to only give that much wattage. If you turn the wattage back up, you will notice the volts going up as well. Hope this helps. This is what suprtrkr is talking about voltage being applied to atomizer.

For starters, the iJust2 doesn't need to be on a mod set between 50-100w. you can use ANY wattage, you can use ANY voltage. Do not allow the manufacturer's recommendations to force you into anything. I vape at/around 12w, with 12mg e-liquid, usually. That gives me a great TH, enough vapor to satisfy my eyes, and not so-much that i look ridiculous when vaping in public. YOU set your wattage to TASTE. Set it to TASTE! Don't let ANYONE tell you wht you need to set it at. No tank NEEDS a certain wattage. It's all about setting to taste/preference.
