Hello and thank you for taking the time to help everyone.

I just received a new clone Origen RBD, rinsed it off put on a coil that came with it and gave it a whirl. It had an odd taste but I though it just needed time to settle in. I have now changed coils three times using cotton, ekowool, and the stuff that came with it and still same smell and taste.

When I pulled the drip tip and cap off and hold them in my hand I can even smell this metal….not sure what to even call it.

I took it completely and all pieces for about 10 minutes then rebuilt and some of the taste is gone but still present.

Has anyone ever heard of this? Can you get rid of it or should I throw it in the trash.

Just to be clear it is not coil, wick, or bad juice, it is the tank itself.

I use cartos, pro tanks, eBaron and never had anything like this.

It is sitting on top of a provari
1 coil @1.7ohm
voltage @ 3.6-3.8
3 different juices

I'm not sure what you mean here in red but I think you mean you took it apart and boiled the parts for 10 minutes. I would boil it for at least 15 minutes so if it helped some after 10 minutes, try boiling it again for 15 minutes and then rinse with hot water and rinse the tank with alcohol and let air dry. Hope that helps.
