"Vapeonly BCC", 3.5ml bottom coil in T3 style.

[Trick]

I got one and it's the same crap hits the t3 gives. I'm going to flip it into the junk bin for now, I'm not into modding clearos to work. If this evod I have starts sucking, I give up on bottom coils.

This is sort of how I'm feeling about it. I'm willing to put some work into an rba, but a clearo just isn't worth the effort it takes to make these things work well. Once the two I have going now are empty, they're going into the purgatory where stuff goes that I'll probably never use again.

I've got too many other options to waste a bunch of time fiddling with these things. Maybe the girl'll like 'em. She's the type to puff once and put it down for a half hour. She might get some use out of them.

Y'know, taste is subjective. I'm a chain vaper, on a T3 I vape 3 to 6 ml a day. Never had a dry hit with T3, and I have high hopes on the Vapeonly. And I didn't have to fiddle with them at all. Just wash them as they arrived, vaping 60/40 juice, never had a problem with anything!

Loving mine so far, 2 tanks in but we will see how it holds up. Great flavor and no dry hits to speak of.

 

[sacricide]

mine gets a tad dry at times, but i chain vape, works great IMO

When that happens, take a primer puff without operating the battery. The wicks might be not completely broken in. If that happens, run some vodka followed by hot water. That should improve the draw.

One of the things I'd love to see on these and the T3 is the ceramic cup. Helps retain heat and reduces leaks... If someone has contact, tell them about this!

 

[nathkiira]

got a burnt taste on one of my vapeonly heads .. took it apart and found the wicks were all singed

2.5 ohm head was running it at 3.7 volts .. had let it sit for 20 mins and took a few primer puffs before firing.. was good for an hour then blam

 

[Susaz]

I'm seriously thinking about priming the heads before use. Open the tube, drop a couple of drops, and burn. The silica on these wicks might be a little less absorbent or might be more tightly packed...

I have been using a vapeonly tank for about a week. The head / wick that came with it did not wick well I had a lot of dry hits.
I redid the wick and coil and it has worked great since.

Same here. Got mine a week ago yesterday. Filled'er up, and started vaping at 3.5v on my kgo, burnt dry hits... let it sit another 10 min, 1st hit good, then back to burnt dry hits... Priming did nothing to help, dropping voltage didnt help. After a few hours and dinking around, I finally decided to rip it apart, and re-wick/coil it myself. I wrapped a coil at 2.5ohm around a 2mm silica wick, then put another small piece of 2mm silica on top for a flavor wick, and have not had 1 dry/burnt hit since. I can now crank the voltage all the way to 6v, and still no dry hits!! I havent had a single leak or gurgle either, which is more than I can say for my t3's which developed that issue after 4 weeks of use (1 on the original head, and another that I re-coiled/wicked.

The kgo however is another story... that one is dead after a week....

I heard you need to take a strand or two out of the wick.

As far as modding, except for dripping RBA, they are all top feeding (unless there isn't one i've found). A bottom feeding atomizer, to me, sounds like a great idea. I won't think of these as "clearo's", but as bottom feeding RBA's. (well the Kanger ProTank). Just my .02

 

[DIGGVAPR]

I TRYED EVERY Trick,removed xtra wicks,flipped gasket,loosened tank,burnt hits 4 2 days,was so ......,finnaly broke it open 2 rebuild,silica was burnt up,coil was wrapped WAy 2 tight,w/ wat looked to be 28 or 30 gauge wire,very thick wire that choked the wick,i rebuilt w/ 34kanthal,2mm silica fluffed n cut like a short wicked nova head,no top wick over the coil,put it together,and its great now.BOTTOMLINE if u dont have ability to 2 rebuild heads,dont waste ur money,joyetechs attemt at a tank is great,but their coilwrapping sucks!

I got my new Unique i30 tank that has the dual coils and 16 wicks and holds 3.5 ml. Psuardo rated them above the Vivi Nova and has a video review of them but for me the Vivi Nova is better so far. It is nice looking and they come in a real nice box. The stainless steel swivel tip is nice too along with stainless endcaps. It does vape better at higher watts than the Vivi but I normally don't vape above 7.5 watts on the Vivi for my taste. I need to vape it a couple of days and see how it holds up. It is more expensive than the Vivi but the swivel tip kind of makes up some of the difference but it is not inter-changeable with vivi tips. I like it but not as much as Psuardo does

 

[Jeremy Evans]

After reading this I am glad that I am not alone in thinking this one is a out of the box failure. My authentic Novas never had this kind of problem. I get dry hit after dry hit no matter how much primer puffing I do and I am not a fan of the tip at all either, it chokes your air flow IMO. Changed the tip to a reg tip from my nova and the pull was way smoother but it wasn't being helped any bc of the dryness of the wick.

I am going to rewick with the same cotton I use in my Novas and see how that works out and I will update with results. If that doesnt work though this will get cleaned and put up in the only if everything else I have magically breaks

I am confused at all the frustration some people have had with the Vapeonly BCC. I am only 3-4 days into mine so far and it has been awesome. I did take out 1 of the wicks as PBusardo suggested and to me it is far and beyond the Kanger T3's I have. I am using the 1.8ohm head with 50/50 blend Dekang Menthol on top of my new, The Natural in 18350 mode, and this thing has been a beast!!! Even when the battery had depleted to in or around 3.2V, it still had decent TH, taste, and vapor... I will probably install the 18490 w/kick in a week or so and give that a try, but to this point I am very satisfied with it.... I sure hope it starts to get better for some of you guys out there having trouble. Maybe your troubles lie in the device you are using, (or juice), and not the BCC!!! Just a thought...

I've had great results with mine as well, and I've run 100% PG (Boba's Bounty and Gorilla Juice) through mine several times, on the same 2.2Ohm head. I think there must be a heap of bad heads out there. That's the only variance (that I can think of) that explains why some people are having such a bad experience with them.

I had a similar issue when I got my first Vivi Nova, but just using a different head (happened to be the same resistance I think) fixed my own problems. I hope something gets the BCC Mega working for you folks!

same that happened with T3. I suggest you mention where you bought them to be able to pinpoint where are the bad heads

 

[zipflint]

I would, if I could remember where I got 'em from. I *think* the not-so-great T3 heads came from Stormy's, but they are clearly listed as "Tabac" (NOT Kanger) T3 replacement heads. I've got two, 2.2Ohm replacement heads for my VapeOnly BCC but I'm not sure where they came from....

anyone else finding singe marks on their silicone bungs?

 

[Jeremy Evans]

As a follow up to my post earlier, I tried rewicking mine with some cotton that I had got from High Desert, I tried a single strand and doubling up the strand, as well as one thicker piece of silica wick( frayed method) that I had from there as well, on all three the flavor was amazing but then subsequently followed by flooding. With a doubled up cotton, the flavor was great nad the flooding did take longer and actually thought I had nailed but then I filled it up the rest of the way and it flooded. I tried adding some wick above the coil to see if it would help stop the flooding but no luck there, I only have enough kanthal for one more coil, so I am waiting to try and see if someone else can post up with how many stands they used to re-wick theirs before I use the last bit of wire I have.

When you took out one strand out did you get any gurgling or any fluid built up in the tube? I might try this when I get home and see if that helps. As to what device you are using is really irrelevant if everything else I have works flawlessy except this one. Your vape is really dictated by the method of delivery not what is giving power to it.
