Hi guys!
So, I have an iPv4 with a subtank mini on it. I'm running the iPv4 in temp control mode at 25j, 420F, 2.68v, with a Ni200 build (10 wraps around a 1/8th drill bit) that comes in at 0.16ohms.
I was using organic cotton (the sandwiched stuff) for about a month (no joke, the wick was perfect until about two days ago.) and started to notice a decline in flavor of my anti-lag juice (60%VG/40%PG) which still tasted pretty good. So, I rebuilt a new coil because why not and wicked it with my normal sandwiched organic cotton, but my vapor tasted like t-shirt.
I took everything apart and rewicked it again, thinking maybe I'd man-handled the cotton too much the first time, but to no avail. It still tasted like t-shirt. No hint of my anti-lag juice in there, just... wet t-shirt. I'd cleaned everything really well and what not, but thinking it might have been the cotton, I ordered new cotton.
But in the mean time, I needed something to vape until my cotton gets here on Saturday, so my husband took me up to Walgreens and I picked up some organic cotton balls. However, now, with the cotton ball wicked in my coil, it tastes like nothing. Not t-shirt, not burnt toast, not anti-lag, just nothing.
Does anyone know why this might be happening? I'm not necessarily getting dry hits (I think o: ), but I miss the taste of my juice and it's a little frustrating.
I tried positioning the wick different to see if I can accommodate the stupidly small juice holes on the subtank mini, but it didn't help.
I'm just looking for a temporary fix until my cotton comes in. Any ideas?
Also, completely side question, does anyone have a suggestion for a RTA with a wider deck and better juice holes that performs as well as or better than the subtank mini? I do enjoy the STM, but I have essential tremor and it makes difficult to put a coil where it needs to be to line the ends of the coil up with the screws.
I've looked at a few, but my vape contact is MIA for the moment, so I can't get opinions. :c
