Tasteless RDA!!!!

You didn't specify your juice mix. Is it high VG or PG? PG is the flavor carrier in juices and VG is the cloud maker. The more VG in the mix the less flavor you'll taste, but you'l blow huge clouds with ease if VG is the prominent component in your juice.

If you are after flavor and don't care about huge clouds, try a kayfun v5 or a Squape (R).

With a .32 ohm coil you should get flavor, but you might need to lower the wattage and start around 15W and work back up to find the sweet spot. Smaller diameter wire can help, depending on the final wattage you end up with. The larger the wire the more voltage it needs to reach temperature with a given coil and wicking.

I get great flavor and good vapor from a Kayfun Lite Plus V2 with a .8 ohm 2mm coil, but I'm a low watt vaper who's looking to recreate the feel and flavor of a cigarette.

well, i am confused now, should i make the coils closer to the post or away from the post!!

the cotton is not blocking in air flow, there is enough space for the air to flow nicely.


what i mean by sub-ohm tank, is something like SOMK big baby

I would do what frosc had said. Lift the coils up until you can see the bottom have through the AFC. That way the air is coming in under the coils and up to your mouth. I put my coils closer to the post just to make sure I have room and the coils aren't touching the barrel of the RDA. Now I don't have them touching the post but they aren't way out either. It's easier on a larger mm RDA because you have more room than say the 22mm RDA.

This is why I suggested moving them around.


I do the opposite.
I prefer coils closer to the air flow.

To each his own. That's what's good about vaping is what works for you may not work for me and we are open to try different ways of building or installing coils to find what works best for our different vaping needs.

Some RDA's are just lame when it comes to flavor. I have a couple that seem like they should be great and just are not. Anyone saying the Skill is a flavor machine? I don't have one and don't plan on getting one either, but just something to think about. Sometimes it has nothing to do with your build the atty just sucks or mutes your preferred flavor profile.

An example of this for me was the original Freakshow, hated that thing. It could chuck a cloud but was basically flavorless.

If you are not getting any flavor at 75w on your coil try vaping at a lower wattage on that coil... I am running a single .65 ohm coil in my RDA and any more than about 20 watts starts to kill the flavor IMO.

 

[Wheelin247]

What I don't get is I run different coils with different resistances in multiple RDA/RTA's and I like to have a think dense vape so I'm vaping max VG (DIY between 80/20-93/7) at upwards of 220W and with every one I can taste the flavor so not exactly sure why the OP would be getting a vape with a muted flavor at the wattage being used.

I agree with lifting the coils and if you can, experiment with different drip tips. Less airflow also equals more flavor, don't be afraid to turn it down, unless you're after clouds too.

Less airflow also equals more flavor

Not with every atomizer.

Hi Alamoudi
That is a strange problem you have in that most complain tanks have no flavor compared to an RDA but you seem to be experiencing the opposite.

How are the vapor clouds from the RDA? If you are getting good vapor then as folks have suggested the most common problem is too much power and the second problem is too much air.

There is usually a notable difference in flavor from one atty to the next and whether this is due to different builds and/or coils vs the actual design of the atty is anyone's guess. If you've gotten good flavor through a sub-ohm pre-made coil then there is no reason you shouldn't get better flavor through an RDA but I'm at a loss to suggest anything that hasn't already been suggested. I've only had one RDA that I simply gave up on but it was a badly built clone with really poor airflow through it so that shouldn't be your problem.

Keep at it I'm sure you'll get it solved. Be sure and start low an work up on power as most of my builds in and around 0.30 ohms I vape at 35 to 45 watts, and I've not found any of the fancy coils significantly better than a plain one.

Dears,


Wanted to update u all.

I managed to get to taste great like any other flavor rda.

I watched all reviewers on the skill and how they place their coils. Close the posts. Lined 100% with the afc

Would an RDA in the shape of a nude female torso be considered "Tasteless"?
Sorry guys, sometimes I just can't help myself
