I consider myself an intermediate user. I've been vaping for 13 months now. I have been building for 10 months. I still have ALOT to learn, but I also know what I'm doing. Or so I thought.....
I ordered the Kylin mini, and I'm having problems with her. She ohms out at .22, but she sizzles real bad (not that sweet sound of wicking sizzle, the burnt bacon kind) and the tail end of hit is dry. I unscrew it immediately and the cotton is soaked in juice still. That's the issue I've never had. Sure I've had dry hits, but if I look at the cotton after a dry hit, the cotton has the whites sploches, it's dryish. This isn't. It's completely soaked.
I have wicked this several ways. First wick I had the cotton just ever so slightly sticking out the wick holes in bottom of tank. And I was getting dry hits, and when I looked at it, the cotton was dry. So I rewicked, and the cotton was too short. It was leaking. The dry hits went away. But to much leaking. So I rewicked again and the cotton is just bairly visible, and now it only leaks after I fill it and open the airflow.!! Which is problem number two. But I also can't go above 50 watts without dry hits and sizzle. Not the good kind of sound, nut sizzle like frying bacon.
I let a buddy borrow it, and when he gave it back his wicking job looked exactly like mine, now. We use same cotton, the amount if cotton and length are the same. But it wicked, tasted and Vaped beautiful. Now when I went to change the cotton. I can't get it right again.
So let's recap.
1) Can't vape without dry hits and sizzle but cotton is saturated.
2) leaks ONLY after i refill it. I close the airflow when I refull. When I reopen it...it leaks. More then one should. I clear it out and it's fine until next refill.
And the build and cotton are the same as when my buddy had it. And when I got it back, I Vaped it for a few days no problems. I've checked it over and cleaned tank also. Nothing missing.
I tried to upload some photos but it said file was too large. If there is anyway or anywhere to upload them let me know if ya wanna see it.
I have read up on the wicking of this tank. They say not to let the cotton come out of the bottom of the holes (when the tank is assembled)
