SS Clapton Longevity

[Hightech Redneck]

This may seem stupid but bear with me.
I make my own Clapton's usually fused 26x34 and lightning vapes wire.
Now my question is about how long Clapton's last for those of you making your own.
When I build standard round wire coils in can get a few weeks easy. But my Clapton's I seem to get a week or maybe a little more before having to rebuild. Mainly because even with fresh wick my adv doesn't taste right.
To give you the rest of the info, I DIY my juices and do use sweetener. My coils do gunk up but I clean and rewick every 2/3 days to keep things fresh.

Is this in my head or do others of you see this?

Depends on use case I suppose.

I assume by "Clean" and rewick you're dry burning running under a faucet then dry burning again?

I've never had a coil that need to be cleaned in 1 day much less replaced in a week.

after dry burn and rinsing the coil will still look new for at least a week after you'll notice a discoloration but no need to actually rebuild.

What makes you think you NEED to rebuild?

It may be my imagination as I mentioned, but the flavor changes on my adv even with a fresh wick.
And yes dry fire and rinse. discoloration is normal yes.
Also I am a fairly heavy vaper, these coils pass a minimum of 25ml a day. I look more for flavor than cloud but do enjoy the cloud so maybe it's more the juice used than time?

With SS you have to make sure not to overheat them. Just get them slightly orange and that's it. In my experience once overheated they seam to tarnish the flavor of everything.
