Might want to use a bit more cotton, should be tight enough to have some tension without distorting your coil and thin the tails a little bit as well. Be patient with yourself while learning to wick. I've learned it's not so frustrating if I just laugh and say well damn. Then do it again. Best to rewick until you get it right so you don't juice up your mod too much.

Not stressing at all I just got this to play around with and I am using the juice that I hate lol so it can leak as much as it wants until I figure it out.

One more question flavor sucks big time... Cloud is awesome tho would it be the problem premade coils?

Letitia9 · Jan 20, 2018

Flavor is subjective. Wick and wire both play a role, as does air flow and drip tip. You want your coils level with your af. The are some good tutorials for wicking the Bellus on youtube. I would recommend you watch several of them with the rta in front of you. Easier for you to learn visually.

That's exactly what I am doing right now

But I will replace the cotton and try to squeeze more cotton in there

Nameste · Jan 20, 2018

I think I fixed the leak issue.. I took out the cottons and kind of squeezed more cottons in coils but I cut sides a bit shorter they are half way down not touching base of the deck it looks like it stopped the leak.

And before I think I didn't have enough cotton in coils and had my first dry hit and it definitely not pleasant at all.. My throat still burns

Nameste said:
So what now just vape until it starts to give burn taste and replace the cotton?

Yep, clean the coil between wickings/when coils get gunky.

Nameste said:

From what I've seen, you want the cotton to fill the wick channels and it doesn't necessarily need to go to the bottom of the deck, ok if it does tho.
You want enough to fill the diameter of the wicking channel [can tool it in there after you juice it] > so that the juice doesn't flow up causing leakage,,,whilst not so packed that it doesn't wick properly and dry hit.

edit: oh, looks like you got it

Nameste · Jan 20, 2018

It looks odd on revenger tho

Nameste · Jan 20, 2018

Leak definitely stopped and flavor is back.. I can't believe how much wicking effects the flavor.. Thanks for all the help..

Now new question some cheapo but ok mod for this bellus that you can recommend? Plus I only have revenger if something goes wrong with it I don't have backup...

Are you limited to vape shop purchases or can you use online vendors?

Nameste · Jan 20, 2018

I don't like online purchases I like to see it before buy it if possible

Vape Fan · Jan 20, 2018

That's going to greatly narrow your choices and cost more.

Nameste · Jan 20, 2018

Even from online sources if I get the name of the mod I can look it up around here.. There are lots of stores around here
Thanks

Vape Fan · Jan 20, 2018

There are so many mod styles and brands,,,, maybe look and see what you can get locally,,,based on your taste and $,,,and post the choices back here? Do they have online inventory? Who are they?

Letitia9 · Jan 20, 2018

I understand wanting to get a hand feel for amod before purchase but you will pay 20-40% over online prices. What do you like and not like about your Vaperesso so we can narrow down your choices. There are many good mods out these days.

Smaller as in single 18650 battery?

Yeah I dont go over 70w even if I need to revenger can do that

cheapo but ok mod

What's the limit in US $ ? What stores can you shop at?
Because a list of mods won't do any good if your store(s) don't have it.

Example: My 1 and only single battery died and I've ordered this $50 one.

Letitia9 · Jan 20, 2018

Sinuous P80, Primo Mini, Pico 25 (75w), Orbit 80w are a few that come to mind I've heard good things about. All budget friendly online, don't know current shop prices.

How is Eleaf Pico Dual 200W Kit w/Melo 3 Tank?

mikeyboy74 · Jan 21, 2018

For a simple proven but slightly dated little single 18650 mod that I still see on occasion in vape shops, the ipv d3 is a workhorse. There is a newer d4, a little more ergonomic.

Did quick check online. I know OP prefers in person, but eightvape has the ipv d3 listed for 29.99 USD.

Since dual batteries have gotten smaller, I use them for battery life. But my ipv d3 is still fine for the Cleito or Super Tank Mini.

I also have an Innokin Coolfire 100TC with internal lipo battery, that I use with a Baby Beast. The various Innokin mods are simple, well built.

Letitia9 · Jan 21, 2018

I always forget about the Innokin mods, guess because I've not had one. Would recommend them tho, great little work horses.

I have read about problems with the battery door on the Dual and I am not a fan of the Melo 3 tank.
I have the Pico 75w single battery and use with the Tobeco Super Tank Mini 22mm.
There is also the newer Pico 25, single battery but will accept up to a 25mm tank, Tobeco has a Super tank 25mm size too, that I own and like much more than the Melo tank and the STM are very affordable.
The Tobeco Super tanks will be able to use many different easy to find coils, there is a thread here on compatible coils like the Aspire Triton and Atlantis along with eLeaf Melo coils, and Tobeco all work in this tank.
Single battery affordable mods I own- Pico 75, The Funky Box 60w, Sigelei Minibook 40w, Kanger Nebox and 1 internal battery- the Yosta 60w kit.
I have not used these but the eLeaf iKonn or eLeaf Invoke look like nice inexpensive dual battery mods.
Inexpensive dual battery mods that I own are the Yosta Livepor 160w and the Vapor Storm Puma- both lightweight, work great ,dual battery!
RTAs that I like for no leaking are the OBS Nano and the Geekvape Zeus- easy single coil, more forgiving in wicking. The Geekvape Blitzen looks like another great leak resistant tank and I will probably purchase next!
I have the OBS Crius ll RTA that can leak if not wicked right, but awesome tank, love mine.
My favorite RDTAs are the Ample Pixys, they have the Skelly too- very easy to use, leak resistant and can work on the deck without taking the whole tank apart.

Nameste · Jan 21, 2018

Thanks for all informations!

So far Bellus stopped leaking, clouds and flavor is pretty good actually I really liked it.

Second mod probably I will get Pico 25 or geekvape aegis, haven't decided yet which one to get.

I will get some cottons and wires today and play around with coils and wicks

Nameste · Jan 21, 2018

Any feedback on the Joyetech Ocular C box mod? Found at very good price

Vape Fan · Jan 21, 2018

I, like it lol. 2 battery, not too big, ergonomic, nice big screen with some color. Joyeteck is mainstream and been around for a long time.
I think your tanks will look good on there. Personally I'd pick up a diff drip tip or 2 for the Bellus, to shorten it a bit-but that's me.

tom donahue · Jan 22, 2018

I would recommend the clieto 120 then get the RBA deck comes with a good set of prebuilt coils in it so all you’d have to do is put some cotton in it I was just like you wanted nothing to do with building coils now I’d never go back it’s very easy to wick the coils and you’ll be very satisfied and you can also get the expansion glass/ fatty glass for the 120. Just my opinion hope it helps

Got this

I wanted something simple but price tag was awesome on this mod I got it for $30

sealed box. It looks good with Crown 3
Little heavier than I like but no big deal

Letitia9 · Jan 22, 2018

I've read good things about the Ocular, congrats finding such a good deal.

Thanks so far no issues didn't have time to play around with menu and settings yet but I like it.

And 5th day on crown 3 with 0.25 coil still on. Flavor and cloud are still awesome!

New mod gave up on me

hmmm...wonder if the 510 is connecting like it should. It's adjustable on some tanks, but I've never done it.

Nameste · Jan 22, 2018

I have searched and it is a common problem for this mod with rta tanks once pin gets pushed down it won't come back up... Stupid design... That's all. I will be replacing it with different mod

Try to gently pull the 510 pin on mod up with a tiny flat head screwdriver. Works on the istick mods, might work for this one too. Make sure the mod is turned off.

Nameste · Jan 23, 2018

No big deal they will replace it

BTW I am vaping on my first very owned coils lol coils came out as 0.32ohm I was trying to get 0.25 lol but it works well so far.. It is at 40w and cloud is awesome flavor is coming up slowly tho..

One odd question these squonk mods can be used with subohm tanks or it has to be rda/RDTA?

SkoldVape · Jan 23, 2018

If you put a sub ohm tank on top it would be pointless as you wouldn't be able to sqounk.
A sqounk mod relies on an RDA that has a sqounk pin.
You squeeze the bottle and it pushes liquid into the RDA.
I like to use sqounk mods when on travels as it means I don't have to drip.

SkoldVape · Jan 23, 2018

I can't get anything to match my revenger btw so I feel your pain.

Yes I know I won't be able to use squonk but high pethadicly

mod will fire up subohm?

I like revenger so much but not many matching tank around blue crown 3 would match but place I got it had only blacks it doesn't look odd at all but bellus looks weird on it for sure

There are a couple of RDTAs that are squonk compatible. The Cthulhu Gaia is pretty good and I hear you can get a pin for the Pindad. There are a couple of others, a Google search should pop them up.

It will yes

SkoldVape · Jan 23, 2018

And I know what you mean. I have a green/black revenger and nothing match it. I'm not keen on the NRG tank that comes with it
