Hey there guys.

Just got my build recently, and its the IPVD2 + uwell Crown.

I'm currently using the .5 coil, and Halycon Haze's Sweet Prudence. A few problems though.

1. Not much flavour. I'm on 35w in Power Mode. I'll step it up bit by bit.
2. I think i primed the coil too much, and it still has some bubbling noises whenever i fire it up. Should i wait it out or change the coil? If i change the coil, what wattage should i go for?


Hopefully these questions will be answered soon. I am new to the scene and still trying to get my inhale right. I did read some very good information from the forums here! Especially the vaping techniques post in the forum.

Thanks beforehand guys, and happy vaping.

Welcome to ECF, @Icaruss. Mostly likely someone will be along shortly who is more familiar with your tank, but I would suggest you try to unflood your coil before changing it out. Try removing the coil, wiping it off, and then gently blow through it into a paper towel to get rid of any extra e-juice. That will often stop the gurgling.

As for your power setting, that sounds reasonable to me. Generally, you want to start at lower power, say maybe 20-25W for your 0.5 coil, and slowly increase until either the flavor improves or you get a hint of a burnt taste, in which case you should dial the power back down.

It sounds as if you're new to vaping. Are you also a former smoker? If so, many folks have found that it takes a while before their taste buds recover and they can really taste their juice -- particularly if it's a more subtle flavor. Personally, I vaped mint for several months when I started. It wasn't an exciting flavor, but I could taste it, and it got me off cigarettes.

Good luck with it. I hope you get the answers you need to help you on your way.

Thanks @NoFumus, hopefully i'll be able to enjoy my time here, and maybe help others as well! I'm not much of a smoker, just a social one, and just shishas at that, and wanted to try this out. So i'm still sticking to 0mgs.

and @Paul lamb, it is 60pg/40vg. However the first one i used is Liquideo's Churchill. That was kind of thin and I used that to prime it. From what i read from another post, a user suggested not to overprime it. But weirdly i'm not sure if its burnt or not, it doesn't taste burnt.

Will keep an eye out..
