burnt taste

slayer420-x · Nov 9, 2015

Lately i've been getting a nasty burnt taste from my haze rda clone. I have a 24 g 7 wrap 3 mm on my ipv2 at 50 watts. Same setup ive used always just fine. Im not sure if its the rda or what. Its not hot spots that i can see, i always pulse and blow with cap off coils dont glow while wicked so thats good. Not to high watts cause i always use same setup until recently getting this. Tryied re wicking... it'll be fine on fresh wick few vapes or so, seems to do it more if i try a 4 -5 sec drag. Idk if wicks to tight or loose, when it taste burnt wicks still plenty wet.

That's why my girlfriend stopped vaping after a week cause she tried different juices an same as we are both new to vaping I'm quite knowledgeable on the important things but in the back of my mind I think that but taste could be from the kind of juice an nic level? That's why I vape flavors can't vape nic anymore. I'll keep up with this post cause I would like to know as well
Vape on

Since you've mentioned, it's fine for a few drags, when re-wicked, the only conclusion I have, is your wicks are too tight. They are getting choked by the coils, thus hindering the juice from getting into the coils.

Clean you atty in PGA.
Break it down to all parts and pieces and inspect them, if there is scorching you have a short somewhere.
Recoil and re-wick, juice and test for hot spots.

There is a little bit of a black spot looks like scorching on positive post it doesnt wipe off. Could be the atty?

Could be.

Is it better to have wick bit tighter or looser. When i pull it through coil's back & forth, should my box mod be tipping to or should it be still?

If its too tight, while the wick tails maybe wet, it may keep juice from wicking into coils.

How long have you been vaping current flavor? While most people report vapers tongue keeps them from tasting certain flavors, I've had it to where flavors tasted burnt regardless of changing coils or cotton. If you vape your current flavor alot, try a flavor that is quite a bit different.

I use the same coil in my mutation x but in a different mod. I don't go near 50 watts. I would think you can only get two or three good hits at that watts with a single. I would turn the watts down to 30 on the IPV D2 and try it. Also, it continues cooking after you let off. At 50 watts it is really cooking after you let off. I have an IPV D2 and seldom go over 30 watts, but I am not a high watt vapor.

I would knock 20 watts off and give that a go, after you rewick.

If it's still cooking more than 5 seconds after, them i would suspect the wicks aren't wicking. I run between 110 and 130 watts with my sapor and only time it continues to cook is when it is dry. .....yes i like it warm.

Should be still. However, you want to feel a slight resistance when pulling back and forth. With some practice, you'll know what it's supposed to feel like.

Wow, can you describe that as warm? Sorry I suggested anything. I should have seen that you have all the answers.
