if its tasting really sharp or almost metallic, I could be arcing... if the coil is to close to the wall of the atty, or perhaps a screw isn't tight enough.
you may also have hot spots or clipped a leg screwing it down.
take the wick out and dryburn it checking for hot spots if its not that make sure the legs are in firm but not clipped.

those are the firs thing that I would think

if its a series box, you may have to much power for the wire, I wouldn't advisee using 26g on a series mech. I would start at 24g and thicker from there. unless its claptons or something like that

Usually the box mod should be matched with suohm tanks, you may lower the power and try again

what? no, not true at all!!! especially if the boxmod is a series mechanical boxmod with hybrid connection.
please don't make blanket statements that can result in unsafe practices.

I agree with @f1r3b1rd 's second post. Would be checking out the coil for hot spots. Hot spots can cause bad grief on a vape.

Note: No, I'm not backing him up because he's a mod. Backing him up because I as a vaper can see the valid logic in what he says. This is not some other vaping forum. Users are not afraid tell mods to go to take a leap if their views are out in left field.

Excuse me, need to shout out. @Hank F. Spankman , "Yeah you Doc Spanky, GFY!"

Doc Spanky will probably agree to checking for hot spots. Kind of a rule around here that three serves as the hat trick. It's written, it's done.
