Wierd wicking issue with MBV Blood orange

[Sniffle]

Not sure if this is in the right place, and if it's not sorry mods please move it...

So, basically i started experimenting with new flavors recently and grabbed some MBV blood orange with max VG, love the flavor!! my only problem is that for some reason, it doesn't want to wick well. I use gennys, 500 SS mesh tight as i can get it(100mm) and it is in a Richman rba, with all the shorts out of it i can vape 2 maybe 3 drags on it before it goes to an extreme burnt dry hit 5 min later I can do it again.

Now before people start screaming that its my setup in the Richman i have an AGA-T+, and it is vaping fine with a near identical setup with my standard go to tobacco flavor, which is also max VG(5% pg maximum). I have even tried high resistance and low volts just to see if it is a juice that doesn't like high temps.

I am at a loss. It just seems like it doesn't want to wick up to the coil like my other juices do.

anyone else have experience with this issue? or am i the first case?

the only real solution i can come up with is to get a dripper if someone doesn't have an idea on what might be going on.

Thicker VG juices don't want to wick very well. I started getting the 70 vg / 30 distilled water from MBV because the water thins out that thick VG some. You're definitely not the only person with this issue.

yeah that's the wierd part, unless my tobacco juice is actually watered down and i didnt know it... hmm..

i have DIY supplies coming to make my own... i will have to look into this more... sigh.. still so frustrated... i've been at work all weekend and loking forward to vaping the ever loving crap out of this juice... and been fiddling with my builds instead... oh well should have known that looking forward to it this much would have a hiccup in it somewhere

sorry for the stream of consciousness

Bumpity.

Sniffle, did you ever solve this problem?

For me, bottom coil is the only surefire way to go with high-VG juices. I tried a couple of VG juices in my wicking tanks and was quickly disappointed. The bottom coil tank vapes like a bloody champ.
