Solid builds taste like burnt juice after 12 hours.

[Lyle Devine]

I have some solid Genesis wick/coil builds under my belt, but after half a day of vaping it tastes like a week old gunked up, burned out carto, and burned e-liquid. 1/8 SS mesh wick (not a straw) 0.5 ribbon A-1 Kanthal, 5 wraps at 2.0 ohms. Using both unflavored e-liquid, and natural tobacco extracts with no difference.

Any suggestions?

What voltage?

Any suggestions?

I ran into the same thing and could never solve it. I think it's caused by two things, juice run back and the juice getting too hot. My only advice is, if you start getting the burnt taste, syringe out the remaining juice and toss it. Don't even try to 'rescue' it lol.

You might find some suggestions in this thread. http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...01058-liquid-darkening-genny.html#post9215002

Voltage is 4.3-4.7 after a half hour break-in around 3.7

Do you leave the fill screw in or out?

Find your hot spot and fix it.

Find your hot spot and fix it.

This is the answer. You have a hot spot or a short somewhere.

PS - I just noticed who I quoted, you shouldn't need a reconfirmation considering the source. =]

Exactly right.

check the ohms and see if it has dropped
