WARNING: IClear30 2.0 ohm coil/wick replacements

[Zuko]

Thought I'd let everyone know about my experience with these replacements.

I bought my two IClear30s with 1.5 ohm coils installed. They worked amazing and I got a pretty damn good vape out of them in both taste and vape production. I recently bought replacements and when I went to install them I noticed they never tightened snuggly and just wanted to continue screwing on to the bottom of my tank causing the connection at the bottom of the tank to to stick out. My MVP will not hit when the tank is completely screwed down so I have to unscrew the tank slightly causing the tank to wobble and spin (I must have my beauty ring installed for the tank to be installed somewhat snug). Also whenever I try to take off the top of my tank to refill it, the replacement spins with it and I have to reinstall it back onto the bottom of the tank. This is when I noticed the "2.0 ohm" on the replacement.

I went back to the local vape store I bought them from and they have some IClear30s with the 1.5 coil in it for tasting liquids. I put one on my mvp and it fit and hit perfectly. I told the manager about this and he opened up a couple IClear30s to give me a 1.5 coil and they all now have the 2.0 installed.

My IClear30s are now pretty much garbage and a huge hassle. Having to find that sweet spot when screwing it on my mvp just for it to hit and constantly have to snug the tank back down when I take it out of my pocket. Having to completely take apart the tank when I refill because I have to snug the coil assemble back down.

Time to start looking in to Kangers or something as I wait for my RBAs to arrive in the mail.

That's odd. I've had no problem with my four iClear 30 clearos on my MVP or Provari. I'm using the stock 2.0 versions. I prefer them over the Kanger Protank.

So the manager gave you the 1.5 ohm coil and they didn't work or fix the problem? You're stuck with the 2.0 ohm coils that caused all the spinning and distortion of your iClear30? I guess what I'm asking, are your iClear30's permanently damaged so that the 1.5 ohm coils didn't fix the problem once you received them?

If something screws out could it not then screw in?

i got an iclear 30 and 30s today. the 30 came with a 2.0ohm and it wouldnt read. apparently the 2.0ohms my local guy said sometimes well mroe often the coil are coming more loose. so when someone buys one he'll open and make sure its connected right

The only thing I can think of is the possibility of you store getting clone's from his supplier. I go to a B&M that is an authorized Innokin dealer and 4 Iclear 30 and now 2 30s tanks and never a single issue with any of them. I did however stray one time and purchased a 5 pack of replacement coils from a "trusted" eBay seller that were advertised as "genuine" and they weren't. They were all over the place on the meter, a couple screwed in correctly and 3 didn't. I took a couple of them to my B&M and we compared. They looked the part but when really looking close there was a lot of difference.

Have your shop verify that their supplier is in fact an Innokin supplier and not someone with a 2 car garage and a daily delivery from Fast Tech.
