It's very hit and miss as I said, one moment it is smooth and the flavor is great and the next its like im smoking straight glycerin with a metallic taste
Could always re-wick it with cotton or hemp. So don't throw the heads away!
If your not into rebuilding just yet, try some ARO heads. They will fit in the Protank, and I find the wicks to be better made than the Kanger heads.
I want to get into rebuilding! It's a little over my head just yet but when ebay finally releases my money I'll probably order some cotton wicks. What my protank is doing right now is letting me vape for a short amount of time wonderfully then it gets that metallic taste, then i leave it alone, then its fine then it comes back. It isn't flooding because I cleaned it good and it's not gurgling anymore.
The heads just really don't last all that long. You can't just vape on them for weeks at a time. I generally either rewick or recoil the thing every single day to stay in happy vaping. Also, go to cotton.
Can I use household cotton? And is it necessary to recoil or can I JUST replace the wicks with cotton?
When I switched coils last I switched too a 1.8 ohm coil could this be the reason for the gross flavor im getting? It's like ever other draw is good etc. But could it just simply be because of the ohms?
Well the 1.8 ohm coil is less forgiving to a poor wicking, so sort off. The underlying problem is still probably that the coil is not quite getting enough juice.
And yes, you can use household cotton. Q-tip, etc. Just be sure it's actually cotton. And you can use the stock coil if you want to.

I'm able to simply rewick about two times before the coil gets completely boogered and needs to be recoiled.
Thank you for all your responses! I just got my ego twist in the mail and so far I have absolutely no problems with flavor being muted (same coil as when I made this post). Does it matter what volt I run or is it just a matter of taste? Right now I'm using a 1.8ohm head with 4.1 volts. That is perfect for me but does the high volts run a risk of damaging my coil early? My old ego battery must have just been crap
You volt to taste, otherwise you're just wasting your time, really.
Who needs the frustration? lol
