Some general vaping questions! Clearomizers, atomizers, taste-testing ejuice etc.

Hey everyone! Firstly, I want to thank everyone for their responses in this thread: http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/new-members-forum/427827-confused-what-buy-first.html

as they all helped immensely. I have two ego-c twists with Kanger bottom coil clearomizers currently.

The ego-c twists are perfect. I have no complaint with the batteries. They last a while, and adjusting voltage is badass - and DOES make a huge difference with juices.

I have been having issues off and on with the Kengar clearomizers. I have 5 flavors of course so I have been vaping different ones here and there, only filling the clearomizers .5mL at a time or so to taste the different. I had only filled one for a second time when I had major popping and juice all in my mouth issues.

With another, sometimes I inhale and get nothing, even though I'm holding the button down. It seems clogged.. this is with a new coil. At the moment my coils do not last long at all. Is there a different type of delivery device i could use, or a different brand that would offer better performance? I love the look and feel of these but they have been sort of a hassle.

With that being said, I know that switching juice a couple of times probably destroyed my one coil in like 3 days. What is a good device for just taste testing juices before I commit to vaping them a while?

All help appreciated, as usual.

Read this article that I wrote for beginners that discusses the more common juice delivery devices in general terms. You be provided a short description, pictures of what they look like, and a video on how they are filled. If you have questions about a particular device, myself or someone else will be by to help you with that.

It's a great article, and basically answers my question for taste testing liquids (just use a drip atomizer). Now I just wonder if there is something better then these Kangers or if I should just stock up on coil replacements often.

I like the Kanger T4's for tasting juice, pretty easy to fill and preform amazingly. Dripping atty's are also nice for quick flavor tests.

If you still have the old coil you could try removing the center post and doing a dry burn.

For most of the bottom coil clearos you can extend the life of them by dry burning in between favors. I'd also pick up a few yards of 2mm silica wick so you can replace the flavor wicks that sit on top of the coil.

Just have in mind that most bottom coil clearos work better when more than a 1/3 full too. I have had leaking issues with BCC type clearos that went away if I just kept them topped off. Obviously you don't want to do that if you are testing juices.
Maybe consider getting a nano-clearo (like this one from altsmoke AltSmoke.com - Nano Clearomizer - 510 Thread )- or just a CE4 or CE5 type clearo that you can half-fill (like 0.8mls or so) to try out different flavors.
