I'm getting tired of never having any flavor. Right now I'm using an aspire BDC system, and the flavor vanishes within a day of changing coils. Grrr, I love this little clearo. I've also done tanks with cartos, and I lose flavor in those too! Its getting so frustrating.

So 1) what can I do to fix this without going the rebuildable route? I really REALLY don't want to do rebuildable coil systems.
2) Is there a better clearomizer that doesn't lose flavor like I seem to be doing with nearly everything I've tried lately?

That's easy: buy coils.

It's a very simple choice; you can't have it both ways.
Either you buy coils or you go rebuildable and just bay a roll of kanthal instead of spending all that money on coils.

I struggled with protank coils for 9 months, but now I've got 2 30mm rda's and with that size I can now zip up a fresh coil in a few minutes; plus with more space to work with I'm using 28 gauge which lasts a long time;

oh wait; you didn't mention anything about dryburning/cleaning your coils?
When you pop in a new coil, you can put the old coil to clean, or you can dryburn the old coil to burn the gunk off.
Some people have reported good results from using denture cleaner.

the aspire nautilus is the most popular/ well liked I know of in terms of pre made coils. It does sound like maybe you got a bad batch or where you buy them from ordered a large bad batch. My father uses those and I think he gets around a week or 2 from a coil depending on the liquid. Dark/ sweet liquids gunk it up faster and some say higher VG does as well so i guess perhaps the liquid is the bigger culprit. Out of genuine curiosity, if you care to share, why do you not want to rebuild?

I'm assuming that you've ruled out the fabled Vaper's Tongue? I find that I sometimes have to 'get away' from a flavor for a day to really enjoy it again. If you haven't tried that you may want to get another device and vape a different ejuice.

If this isn't the case, are your coils getting all gunky? Some ejuices will trash a coil pretty quickly but you should be able to do a quick search and see if yours is one of those.

Yes, tried new coils, they work great for a day or 2, then the flavor vanishes. Maybe its just me. I actually forgot I had one soaking to clean right now! Thanks for reminding me. I will try above suggestions though, other than buying new coils-I already have 2 sitting here, and the coil in the tank right now is fairly new, about 4 days in tank.
