I recently purchase the all black eLead iStick Pico with the black Melo 3 tank (like this) and so far have found it pretty good, despite a couple of leaking issues which i think were probably me accidentally refilling with the airflow open (lesson learned!).
However, I've been vaping it at 40W with the pre-installed .25Ω coil because I find if I push the wattage much higher (certainly if I go above 50W), the vape becomes a bit burnt-tasting and less flavourful. Reading around, my understanding is that higher wattages should lead to more flavour, not less and obviously starting to get a burnt taste is never good!
I don't think the coil is dying yet (I've only been using it for about a week) and I will try the other supplied coil (a .5Ω version I believe), so I'm wondering if my expectations are just off - should I be able to move up in wattage with this setup and expect good performance? Is it possible I just have a bad coil (it vapes just fine at 40W) and what alternative coils should I consider if not just more of the same ones which came with the unit?
Appreciate any advice or suggestions, thanks in advance!
