in the past 9 days I've quit smoking 1-2 pks of camel crush for too long... (20+years)

and jumped in both feet/head first and bought s bunch of beginner stuff-- also I've been reading endless reviews and comments about this and that

I purchased-

2 Kangertech Aerotank mini's
2 Kangertech EVODD VV
1 Aspire Nautlius Mini
1 Aspire CF VV+

Since purchasing I think I've burned through lots of coils (I think) they have a harsh taste to them

6 of the kanger coils 1.5
And 4 of the Nautilus coils 2
1.8's and 2 of the 1.6

Any way I've read tons at articles about making them last longer and what not -
My question is what do they look like when it done? The coil that is

Well, apparently you can't post a pic via iPad -

So I guess my other question is 10 coils is obviously a lot for just over a week and probably a total of 7-8 ml of juice...

Would 2.0 coils help this? And if someone could post a pic of a burnt out coil that would be great.. Maybe I'm just being a puss

What E-Liquids are you vaping and what type of device are you using and what power setting?

Let's see- ?Lots of different liquids---
Ripe vapes - coconut thai - 100% vg - I know, but I only used that once and surprisingly it didn't clog my coil...
CRFT - trail mix
Ruthless - swamp thang
and my favs-
MERKURY - carnival, smoked banana custard, dori cake, and SLURP (my new fav of all time) local to me

All are only 6% nic and pretty ligt in color...

The devices I use are the Aerotank mini and nautilus mini with the VV batteries and I keep them about the middle to low end - less then 4...

I found a video about burning the nautilus coil to clean them kind of... Do you guys change coils every time u change juices?

I just kind of empty the tank and refill... But all my juices are about 50/50 blends-- would thatbr my issue-
I like variety- going to buy another nautilus so I can have 4 differnt juices
Also I use both wide open as far as air holes go...
Is that dumb?

I go through Aspire mini coil about every 2 - 2 1/2 weeks..I can't say much for the Kanger mini's...my opinion I have nothing good to say about that brand, they drove me nuts for months

If you're chain vaping like I did when I first quit, you might just be overworking them and getting dry hits.

What's considered chain vaping? 8ml total for 10 coils?

It's the amount of time between hits. 10 coils can't be bad going through only 8ml. Specially with two different tanks. I suspect you might be vaping faster than the wicks can keep up and you're tasting the wick.

I go through more than five ml a day on my Nautilus and change my coils maybe every two weeks. I do get a dry hit once in awhile and it takes a few hits for the harsh wick taste to go away.

I have gone thru 30 ml of space jam ASTRO and only used 1 coil in my kangertech protank 2. Something has to be up are you properly priming the coil?

Hmmm.. 30ml! Damn- by priming I usually fill my mini tank- pull on the drip tip till I can taste the juice (not literaly taste it but you know- when it stops tasting like air)

And then I usually I let it sit and soak in for 10-20 min...

Off topic question - seems that I may have given myself nicotine poisoning ???
Or nic withdrawal?

I've only been buying 6% nic juices and it's been a little over a week and I've gotten dizzy/ fainting spells 2 times now... So maybe I am vaping too much-- hee her

If I get 0% juice and mix what I have would that be advisable? Or should I just give up on the nicotine all together and test my brain with zero?

I thought 6% would be ok... Smoked a pack of camel crush a day for a long time...
And I've read people started with 24%, got dizzy and went to 12 and were fine...

Same, 18mg, few 12mg but it's really aggravating that venders are dropping 18mg especially whens it's one of your top 3... I still need my nic

I got the same way dizzy/nauseous when I was chain vaping just drop to a lighter nic %. From what you say you do to prime you should be fine. I dropped to 1.6 and I'm good now I was smoking almost 2 packs of reds a day (cowboy killers) and never felt sick till I chain vape 2.4%. Then again I'm a newb myself to dripping but have changed from disposable tanks to a kangertech pro tank 2 . Plus a kamry drip tip. And for later I have a 16350 Fogatti T22 hybrid for when I learn more about rebuilding.

You might try to tighten the draw on your Nautilus mini. A tighter draw(smaller air hole) will pull more juice into the wick should help with the dry hits. I don't have any Kanger gear so can't help there.

Sorry but could you explain? This - 1.6 and 2.4%?

I started with 12% nic and switched to 6% is that the same thing you were talking about?

Had to leave work got too dizzy and I haven't touched my vape since noon.... Sucks

I'm guessing the 6 is .6 in the area I live 99% of eliquid is shown LIke that on the bottles like I was saying im a newb to the newer mods but saying like 24 is 2.4 here 16 is 1.6, 12 is 1.2 I'm assuming 6 is .6 I would take that info with a grain of salt though. Maybe a senior member would be able to help out with better info on that. Just be careful on chain vaping . Vape on my friend!
