Junky wick

[Yeh.zak1]

Hey
So i bought a griffin 25 plus for a month now
Running dual coil kanthal 22 builds
I feel like my wicks get junked so freaking fast.
Its a day or a little bit more then my wick gets that black color and the flavour becomes awful or less than that when i first wicked my coils.
And sometimes i get black stains just next to the juice control holes.
Ur thoughts ?

If you're using high flavor percentages, dairy or pastry flavors, or super sweet juices, that will happen.
Those are coil killers.

That will do it, especially if you're vaping commercially made "premium" juice as they are almost always over sweetened, and over flavored.

I use mostly tobaccos... I am happy when I get past the first day. 2 days or more calls for a party.

I use to get really nasty coils in my dripper literally black after 1-2 days but I was happy with the performance and taste so I let them be until I feel it's time. Tobacco flavor with some kind of sweetener. Unless there is a health Hazzard I'd just go by taste.

My ADV is a vanilla custard and I get at least 2 days on an RDA without any black marks. In fact, I hardly ever get black marks. The wick gets golden to brown and the coils get black, but It doesn't start tasting bad to me. I usually just dry burn and rewick because the coils get gross looking.


My husband, however, burns stuff up so much faster with the same type of coils, wicking and juice( I do the building and wicking.). I blame it on how he is vaping it. I don't think he pulls any air through after firing and lets it stay so hot that the juice cooks on.

If you are vaping NETs (Naturallly Extracted Tobacco) juices they are notorious coil/wick killers because of the very fine particulates that don't get filtered out..

Same here but additionaly the flavour producing quality decrease alot.

Me too...i take 2~3 puffs and let it cool without pulling air

I cool mine by pulling air for a bit after firing and it keeps it nice for longer. Being that I have to build and wick for the both of us, I like to have it last a little while. Rewicking isn't my favorite activity but I like vaping it. lol
