Burnt coils

hi I have been vaping for a few years, but I recently switched to th Smok V8 pen. I switched my tank to a Tebecco. I have been having a lot of trouble with my coils burning out quickly. I usually vape very tart juices, like Lemonade flavors. Are they burning so quickly because my V8 doesn't have a temp control? Or is it the coils? Or my VG ratio? (Which is 70VG/30 PG? Any ideas?

Thanks

1. How fast are you going through coils?
2. Are you using the 0.5 ohm or 0.2 ohm coils? For the V8, the 0.5 coils may be best as they require less wattage.
3. Are you priming your coils when you first install them?
 
I'm going through coils about every 2-3 days. i am using the .5 because the .2 is way too harsh. I always prime them too. I just bought a few new juices with a 70PG/30 VG ratio.i thought I would try that and see... but I'm considering going back to a temp control so I can adjust the heat. I just really like the V8 stick size. What do you think?

Thanks for answering me
