tabac bbc bottom feeder

[saicodad]

i just got a new tabac bbc bottom feeder and it dose not matter what liquid or how low the voltage is on my ego twist i am still getting a burnt taste. any body have have that problem or a solution to that problem the resistance on the coil is 1.8. here is a link to the product. would going to a higher resistance coil solve my problem? they have the 1.8 and the

It's basically a kangerT3 clone. What PG/VG ratio are you using? I would take it apart and clean/dry burn (burnt taste may be caused by gunk buildup on the coil). If that doesn't help, then most likely there's too much wicking material blocking of eliquid to the coil (happens more often with high VG% eliquids). If that's the case, you might want to consider taking out one of the wicks sitting on top of the coil.

Here's a video by Phil on Protank on how to remove it (starts ~9.00)

Hope this help, good luck.

I get the burnt taste even with a new coil tried 3 new ones all the same resistance 1.8. juice is 50/50 i did notice when i take of the small gasket it gets rid of the burnt taste. now the problem is that i get juice on my battery(not much) and have to keep an eye on it and dry it off every hour or so. I will take a look at he video and try it thanks for the info

I have two of those and never had a problem. Do you have a higher Ohmed coil? I like the 2.2Ω the best.

Sometimes taking a couple of primer puffs (without activating the battery) helps the juice get to the coil, as demonstrated in the video (the voideo is about the eVod, but it's the same principle). Burned taste almost always indicates a dry coil.

Yep, sounds like too much wicking material which is chocking the flow of eliquid. Easy fix is either flipping the silicon gasket or removing a wick. Also, keep in mind all BCCs tend to gurgle and flood when the eliquid is low (when it drop to under ~0.5mL for me), so remember to refill them when they're low.

well i flipped the gasket and seems to be working pretty good now hope it stays this way thanks for your help

Nope it was good for about an hour now it's back to burn taste, I ordered coils with higher resistance (2.2) took you advice Katya i should get them in a few days i'll let you know how that turns out

Good luck! Keep us posted, will you?

I finally got the higher resistance coils in and let me tell what a difference no bunt taste and clouds of vapor 2.2 ohms is just perfect for me now the only thing is I can't put it down. Thanks guys

Remove Base - Rinse in HOT water to clean
Remove the pipe by wiggling out
Remove (1) flavor wick
Insert the pipe fully
Fluff the wick ends
Install and test.

Your juice may be thick enough to prevent proper wicking with all wicks in place.

I'm so happy for you!

does anyone has pic of this unit on an ego-twist or a vision spinner? I want to see if it's wider and looks funny if it is wider than the battery.

I have the same problem with 2.2 ohm wicks but okey with 2.5 ohm wicks, btw im using standart ego battery 1100 Mah and the standart ego should be 3.3 - 3.4 volts

I stopped using mine was always getting flooded i just went out and bought me a vivi-nova with 2.8 ohm wicks vape at 4.0v clouds of vapor and no dry burn taste. I personally like it better. the only thing is to remember to tip it when juice is getting low
