BGOUGH Posted May 3, 2014 Author Share Posted May 3, 2014 actually right at this moment, when it happened, I'm using my back up battery which is an ego 900 mAh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeffb Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 Sometimes coils dont last long. You end up getting a burnt taste or its vapor production goes down. If your unit came with extra coils, pop a new one in. If not, make sure you order some new coils. Its always good to have some extras on hand for back ups.

Tam Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 Before we can give you detailed directions, we kinda need detailed information. The eGo 1300 -- is it a fixed voltage device or variable voltage? What ohm coil are you using? What kind of juice is in it? Meaning what PG/VG ratio? Is it very sweet? All this will help us to help you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bad customer service...) and kinda sweet, kinda mentholy, and a little acidic, but not very much. Fixed voltage Not sure what ohm, oops. haha. Hawks Sauce, from Mt.

I can't imagine the coils could only last for 2 days, my crappy CE4 disposable clearomizers coils lasted longer than that. Its a possibility but I don't think so.

BGOUGH Posted May 3, 2014 Author Share Posted May 3, 2014 I have thrown out coils after 1 hour of use. well I guess its worth a try, Im not really sure how to replace the coil on this fancy clearomizer, any videos or instructions from someones who has had the same one I have.

BGOUGH Posted May 3, 2014 Author Share Posted May 3, 2014 So, i had 2 replacement coils. Really easy to fox, although as I took off the bottom part (trying to take it off my battery) I pilled the wrong part off now I have niccy fingers. Anyway, Im waiting for the wicks to soak, But the problem seems to be solved. How can I avoid coils burning out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeffb Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 The only advice I can give is make sure and keep your tank filled up. Sometimes it doesn't matter what you do. They end up getting that yucky burnt taste and you gotta toss em Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mvince201 Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 I have thrown out coils after 1 hour of use. Same here. Even with my kanger coils every once in a while I get one that just don't last long. Not sure why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tam Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 The darker, sweeter juices tend to gunk up coils faster than lighter colored, less sweet juices. Keep in mind that dual coils will cost a little more than single coils. You might want to think about picking up a Kanger Pro Tank mini or Anyvape Davide mini. These use single coils and most often the same Kanger coils that run around 2 dollars each. You can get them in a 5-pack. The two I mentioned are also bottom coil with glass tanks.

On the dual coil note, I also noticed that with my protank 3 mini stock dual coils, I picked up a burnt taste much easier than with a single coil installed (obviously because of less heat). But this may also be what you are experiencing. I switched to the single coils and like them much better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, i love my tank, i just didn't expect it to quit on my that fast. its only 2.99 for a coil thank you for the advice!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tam Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 On the Anyvape Davide minis there are four holes at the base. I just covered one with tape and it took care of the airy quality of the vape. Also, the kind of drip tip you use on these (you can change them), will make a difference in how airy a draw it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charliestheman Posted May 3, 2014 Share Posted May 3, 2014 I had exactly the same problem with an Aspire tank, I thought I burnt it. It turned out, I wasn't only using a new tank, I had put new juice in the new tank. I saved a bottle especially to put in the new tank. The juice was my problem, it tasted exactly like a burnt with but it was really that the juice hadn't steeped and the alchol/chemicals hadn't evaporated. Before throwing out the coil I decided to change juice to what I knew was good because I had been vaping it. The tried and true juice was PERFECT and that's all I changed. It's definitely something to consider, but once you get it right, the Aspire ETS is my favorite above all my other clearo/cartomizers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So glad I stocked up with extras before they started using those damn dual coils! Still have 4 in the box and 10 in rotation! Tam 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
