Wondering about IClear 30...

[niko69]

I got mine 2-3 weeks ago and it started loosing taste, still have plenty of vapor and throat hit but absolutely no taste. Could I remove the wick and do a dry burn, and would I be able to put the wick back in place? I searched for an instruction video but couldn't find one :-(


Thanks

Are you using the iClear 30 or the 30S?

Could be case of the dreaded "Vapor's Tongue" - are you switching up flavours and staying hydrated?

Wow! If your head lasted 2-3 weeks, that's awesome! I'd take off the atomizer head, run it under HOT water for a good few minutes then do a dry burn. You can also soak it in vodka or grain alcohol too for a few hours, rinse it off, then do a dry burn. Here's a how to video! Hope this helps!

Assuming that a 30 and not 30s, I usually just do a dry burn with the wicks in. They're silica so they won't burn. Then I rinse again, soak briefly in alcohol again, and do a 2nd dry burn.

That typically snaps it right back to like new for me.

I kind of love and hate that tank. Sometimes it's great, sometimes a real PITA. Really depends on the juice. For the most part, 70VG/30PG juices (or 60/40 DIY) seems to be the most optimal for it on my end.

No matter what though, I can't go more than 2 or 3 days of continuous use without a good cleaning and dry burn, so at 2-3 weeks you're probably far past due for that depending how much you use it.

Mine did the same thing. I tried everything. New heads, lower/higher resistance, lower/ higher wattage etc... Nothing worked. It's just a flavor killer. Great vapor and throat hit but no flavor. It seems ok right after I switch flavors but after an hour or so all I get is that weird metallic taste from the tip. I keep mine as a backup but switched to an rba, I get the same vape and all the flavor.
