Hi and welcome to ECF :)

Try loosening it a little. The tank should be *just* finger tight. If you tighten it really well you can compress the firing pin on your battery and block airflow on tanks styled to draw airflow through the stem. This tank is designed to prevent an airy draw - so it can have a tighter draw than you are used to - but it shouldn't be like trying to suck a milkshake through a straw either.

Hope this helps :)

The coils 'last' until you don't like the vape coming from them any more (usually either bad or significantly muted flavour). They don't generally pop and stop working. This means you are in charge of when to change them out, guided by your own tolerance for the vape.

Some folks swap the coil unit every second tank fill-up, others do it weekly as a habit, some others claim they can go for a month before making a change.

Things affecting the useful life of the coil unit include juice thickness (high VG juices tend to gunk up the coils faster), juice sweetness (ditto for sweeter juices), and frequency and duration of vaping sessions. That's a lot of things to consider, I know, so best just to swap out a coil unit when you're unhappy with the vape quality compared to when you first put that unit in.

Happy vaping.

I use zeus juice. They have an orange tic tac flavor and gummy bears and the stripe gum. I'm a kid at heart haha. I have the same set up you do. I've noticed flavors will vary. At 4.8 my chocolate taste like it's been on the stove top for 6 hours :/ not good at all. But then at 4.6 my gummy bear is superb 346dc42b94f95d4b0ae28419d9fd12c2.jpg
