Need help

[gill50]

Please can someone help me. Been vamping for about 4 weeks I have an iclear 16 I changed the wick thingy and know the juice tast like its burnt what have I done wrong.

gill50 what did you use to re wick it ? did you let the juice soak in the wick before vaping it ?

[gill50]

I just replaced the wick with ones purchased at the same time.left it to stand for only 5 mins. I didn't have any trouble when I used the compleat I clear 16 for the first time.

[Grandad]

5 mins should be long enough, Unfortunately i dont have a iclear 16, someone should be along soon that can help. Hope you get it sorted
Why did you change the wick ?

[gill50]

It had gone very dark and didn't seem to be vamping very well also turned the juice dark to.

Have you changed the coil to sounds like the coil may be giving you the burnt taste ?

When I change the coil head/wick in the iClear I turn the voltage down on whatever I'm using. what battery are you using gill50 ?

Also, you could have washed the old head, an overnight soak in a steradent solution and left to dry would get you another few weeks from it

That's what I thought  I think Grandad thought you'd rewicked it yourself which is virtually impossible I think with the 16s.


The other thing i'm thinking is that the new head is a lower resistance than your original one which could account for the burnt taste.

Sorry I'm using an ego 510 I think that's what it is. Is there anything I can do or have I messed up big time.

[gill50]

I have just checked and I got 2.1 coils same as the 16 was supplied with

I don't think changing the wick would have made the liquid darker , did you get the spare wick from the same place you got your iclear ?

No you've not messed up.  Wash the old one out and let it dry.  Do you have any more clearos or heads?  Just that if it is a lower resistance and the juice tastes burnt to you then there's not much can be done with the set up you have.  You would need a higher resistance replacement head

It would be worth investing in a cheap Variable Voltage battery.  that was you can turn the volts right down when you fit a new head and turn up slowly until you get a vape that suits you

If you look closely at the heads the resistance is on them.  I'm suspecting the one you're using now is 1.5 or 1.8 and that the original one was 2 or higher.

Yes Myepack

I use the same as u ....when I change the head even if they r new or one that have been washed and dry burn I put a couple of drops of juice direct on the coil its takes a bit to come through but I leave mine 4 about 10 mins, may be u have a duff one sometimes happens
