I always vape at 4.0v or higher. On the istick 20 its a math game since the chip is set to 'Mean' which makes a 3.3 volts actually 4.3. Thats my usual setting. I have gone up higher but it doesnt help. 7 watts is actually closer to 10watts on other devices becaused of how the mod is programmed.

I dont experience this weirdness or gunking on the same coils with other juice. It may just be my bad luck :(
That's why I keep sayin it doesn't regulate below 4 volts even though it reads 3 it's gonna be closer to 4. I don't think there is something that's different about VW juice to make it a gunker juice over others comparing equal flavors and pg/vg content. Try your other juice now with the setup you have and the same settings and see if it's the juice. If it is switch juice companies. :)

Thats what I'm doing now. Vaping at the same watts/voltage and set-up that I did with the VW and using MBV. So far I'm on my 2nd tank and no issues with reduced flavor.

I feel like I'm the only one who is having issues with the quality of VW. So far many of the ones I tried in a tank are coil busters for me. I have not had a chance to vape all of them beyond a drip taste test so I dont have an accurate list of ALL the coil busters. The ones that I have had a chance to vape in a tank either burn out the Nautilus mini bvc coil to the point of a horrible burnt flavor (I'm on a roll, cinnamon roll) or make the coil completely flavor-less (like the OCC, smurf cake, Cha-Cha-Chai, Tofee Dream Cream, fruit hoops) after 2 tanks. 2 tanks is 4 mLs worth of juice.

I'm so disappointed. For the money I am saving on this e-liquid, I'm spending it on replacement coils. I know most will say that I should learn how to re-build. While that may help with the cost of the coils, its not a solution to the quality of juice or the reason for why this is happening.

I REALLY liked the Fruit Hoops. It was probably the one I liked best from all the samples I got. I'm saddened that I cant afford to vape it anymore because I'll have to go through about 3 coils just to vape a 10mL sample bottle. I wasnt completely satisfied with the liquid from my first order, but decided to get a second order of samples for 1 last shot. I dont think I'll be risking any more purchases from them in the future.

I've vaped a lot of 65% VG I'm On A Roll in my Nautilus at 10-11 watts. Even use it as an ADV sometimes, 5 ml in an 8 hour shift. Coils seem to last about like any other juice I vape that much . It does even better in my Atlantis. I might go through 10ml of it in one night with that thing and IIRC, the last coil in there lasted over a week at 30 watts. The whole house smells like cinnamon. :p

Is it the same type of juice? Keep me posted
Its the fruit hoops vs a different fruity blend at a higher vg, so not exactly the same. Im going to have to try the VW strawberry and cream 65vg/35pg vs MBV moo juice 80vg/20pg which is also a strawberry and cream, but slightly higher VG. Ill see what happens.

Still vaping it tonight. I think I like it best of all the other juice flavors I got in my sample pack. I still haven't tried the Sub Zero yet but I'm scared. They included an Apple of my Ice flavor as a freebie and it was one of the first I tried. I liked the apple flavor but the strong menthol was a bit much for me. Now I'm scared the Sub Zero will just be full on menthol. The juice itself smells really good, but I'm not so sure.

I also haven't tried one of the cinnamon roll flavors I ordered. I read somewhere that the cinnamon flavor can be a tank cracker? I'm currently vaping on a Fayfun Lite with a plastic tank and I have no decent backup (other than an old Protank2 with no new coils) and dont want to break it. I have a Lemo with glass tank on order from Fasttech but who knows when it'll actually get here.

Probably not enough cinnamon in the Cinammon Roll to cause a problem.

Since you like GAE, you might also like Strawberry Mojo. It was a freebie in my last order and it's right up there with GAE for me. Has the same tart to it but (mostly) lime instead of apple. They should just call it Lime Mojo. Going to get a bigger bottle of it in my next order.

Been looking at the Lemo, myself. Hope yours arrives soon.

Cinnamon Roll it is! The tank is out so it was refill time. I filled with the Cinnamon Roll and we'll see! I didn't bother to rewick this time. Figured the mix with Apple would be fine for a while.

I'll have to give it a try! Who knows when my Lemo will arrive. I'm loving my KFL, though!

The Apple will probably disappear within 2 or 3 tanks of vapin but the cinnamon should over power it.. If you swap to something else with the CR in the wick it may last longer and mess your juice up.

I figured :) Finally getting warm enough out here to break out my side fire box smoker! I wonder if a nice smokey bbq savory vape would be any good?

Still have a Boston .... in the smoker. It went into the stall about 1 1/2 hrs ago at 150. I wrapped it in foil tryin to break it out. looks like it's workin. Up 8 degrees in 10 min. It's been on about 9 hrs. Found some roast chicken flavorin. Maybe add it to the Hickory smoked. :)
