So sorry if I'm posting a question that's been asked. I searched the forum first but any question of air flow was returning posts that didn't resolve or pertain to my problem & I eventually gave up. 2 days ago my Alien 220 started giving me a lot of air & almost no vape. I turned up the wattage & managed to get some cloud but it came with a heavy dose of ejuice that burned my throat- as the nicotine tends to do (I'm using the vape as a method to quit smoking).
I typically use it with a 4.5ml baby prince tank but I've been experimenting since the trouble started. I have changed the coil multiple times, changed the O-rings (including the top barrier piece), switched back to a regular un-beveled tank, changed my settings; all to no avail.
Right now it has the smaller tank, new rings, new (primed) coil, the wattage is set to 'soft' at 65 & I'm getting almost no vape cloud at all. If I pull hard enough I get more but I also get juice.I've tried the normal & hard settings, changing the temp settings... It does nothing. I have also tried rotating the air flow valve but at the position I usually use it I get too much air & when I close it off enough to get some vape I also end up pulling much harder & either getting juice in my mouth or the cotton burns.
I'm really frustrated & finally broke down & bought some cigs because I couldn't figure this out. I thought at first it was an air pressure problem, then a cross-threading issue, then a tank seal issue, or maybe I bought knock off coils... I have addressed each of these possibilities & it's still not working.
Please help! And again, forgive me if I'm re-asking something that's been asked before. It's not always easy to find the right search words when you're a noob :/
