Noobie Vaper- Help with kanger/ sigelei!!!

[II_Kosmos_II]

New to vaping so I'm still learning as I go so bare with me here...

I have a sigelei 30w with a Kangersub mini tank with 0.5 occ coil. Having issues not getting a good hit. Flavor isn't really there the way I want it to be...and I get this irritated feeling in my throat(which could be more related to this new juice Im trying) I don't know if it's related to my settings on my mod or the coil/tank...

When it comes to the settings I'm really unsure.. I don't quite understand it all yet and I've been just going by what the shop is telling me. Right now it's set to:

27.9W
4.3v
0.6

Drop down to 15 watts and slowly try going up to 20...........I run mine at 20 , over that I find ill get burnt hits, good luck, and Welcome!

If I drop it down and vape off it it's like I'm not getting anything...(

What is the PG/VG ratio of this juice you are using? Is it tasting burnt? Or just not enough vapor production?

Try this first. I don't go above 25w

You are new to vaping, Chill; drop those volts/watts and start at the other end of the power band.

You can run the 0.5ohm coil as low as 12 watts without weirdness.

The flavour is not there the way you want it to be ,,,,, based on what ?

I'm not sure what they are honestly

Lost art mystery

I've tried other people's mods when I'm at the shop. I like big hits with a good flavor. I prefer milky blends cause it's smooth. I don't get that with this setup.

Kosmos, if you are close to the shop where you bought the set up id just bring it there and have them look at it, it could be many things.........

I have the subtank mini and it gets you a good vape but for me not as good as some dual coil tanks and drippers.
Do you have other juices you can use ?

 

[DingerCPA]

Welcome Kosmos! First thing, when you're starting on a new coil, make sure that the wick is properly primed (i.e. soaked with fluid) You could be getting some dry hits, which taste pretty nasty. If you overdid that, the wick may be ruined and you'll have to replace the coil or at least try to rewick it.

When I'm firing up a new coil, I will start low (after priming) and work my way up until I get to the level of vape I want. (Like others, I don't run mine much above 23W when I'm really "pushing")

Good luck!

Those may have been RDAs. Does it get better or worse when you adjust the air flow?

I have a kanger subtank plus an get great hits and flavour with the air open all the way.

ETA: I'm also using the 0.5 ohm occ coils and am currently running at 19.5 w I sometime go higher but never higher than 28w

 

[edyle]

did the tank come a 1.2 ohm coil as well; maybe try the higher ohm coil

gotta walk before you run

Hmm I use max VG juices in my Sub Tank and normally vape them at 17 - 20w and get the best results, after 20w it seems to start burning more and ruining the flavor - at least for my experience.

RDAs??

 

[Wolfenstark]

You did put juice on the coil before vaping ?
Some drops down the top of the coil then give it a minute after filling the tank and putting it together.

 

[Wolfenstark]

RDAs??

Rebuildable dripping atomisers.
You have tanks and drippers.
Or get a bottom feeding mod and you can use a dripper like a tank as the tank is inside the mod.

 

[dcfluegel]

are you using the original subtank mini or the newer version (original has one cyclops air hole on bottom ring, newer version has two) - and do you know if the .5 ohm coil you are using is the original horizontal version or the new vertical (if you look down into the coil itself from the top, does the coil run side to side or can you see all the way through the coil to the bottom of the post?)

the newer coils tend to like a bit more wattage... i generally run the horizontal coils right around 20 watts... the new verts, 35-45 watts depending on the juice

 

[II_Kosmos_II]

I put it down to 15w and same thing. Only with this I don't really taste it and I feel like I really have to work to get a draw off it battery is charged btw.
