I have been vaping since September 9th. Started with a kbox mini-c, and I've recently purchased a Smok Procolor with the X-baby tank. Everything I've read, everywhere, says my coils should last at least a week.... I'm not vaping more then 200 pulls a day, if it's more then that, it's like 210.... my pulls are no longer then 3.5 seconds EVER, and I typically vape around 30-40w. On my kbox mini-c I was using ssocc coils at 0.5ohms, ALWAYS primed them, sometimes longer then 10 minutes (is it bad to OVER saturate a coil in the beginning of its life, cuz I probably do?). And never had one coil last longer then 3 days. Now that I have the procolor, I'm able to keep track of my pulls, how long of a pull I have, etc... and I've had it for just under 2 weeks and I've gone through both coils the tank came with as well as 2 coils additional that I bought. The procolor coils I'm using are v8 x-baby m2 0.25ohms AND v8 x-baby x4 0.13 ohms. The x4 lasted me closer to 4 days, after I put holes in with a pin.
I am not using dark juices, though, I guess they are sweet ... 70/30 drip more strawberry kiwi at 6mg and 3mg. Sometimes that's the only juice my coil gets, sometimes I mix in strawberry palm from drip more. I've also used vani-tea, magnetic worm, and a local shops juice in a grape flavor @ a 50/50 mix.
I don't understand how I'm going through so many coils so quickly...if I go over that 3 second pull at 34w, I taste burnt coil... after 1 day. After 2 full days, I can already start seeing the blackness that's building up on the cotton. I do not chain vape, I do allow a few seconds between pulls, and sometimes, I even do pulls without firing just to make sure the cotton isn't dry before I take my pull.
What am I doing wrong? I am so frustrated and sad..... please help me.
