One flavour just doesn't vape very well

[kibbster]

I've got some Dutch chocolate mint and it's one of my best ever flavours.
But...
It kills coils... Fast.
Within an hour or so performance starts to drop off, still good flavour but no vapour.

I don't understand it, I use the same ratios with all my liquids but this flavour is the worst best vape.

I can only think it coats the coil within minutes and reduces its efficiency.

Any ideas?

An hour?
Is it vg heavy as well?

I have used chocolate, and chocolate mint, and I always change heads every couple of days as I now use custard but an hour??

Maybe caramelising, try vaping with a bit more power to cut through it.

First thing I would try is to use a higher resistance wire that heats more effectively. My custards gunked up my coils within days if I used 0.28 kanthal

switched to twisted 0.15 and it pushed the efficency up to around a week

microcoils with cotton would be something else to try too..

We should try this in one of my new mini Kanger dual coils. Sounds like a match made in heaven...

Yeah running at 10w to try and get anything out of it.
The vapour drops off within no time, still tastes lush though.
Resistance stays fairly even just takes more and more work to get a decent vape.
It's 70/30 PG mix with 20% flavouring.

No sh** !

That might explain something.

I've just tried the evod 2 on 3 different mods. It's terrible.

The resistance reading is 1.6ohms. The vape is similar to an underwater barbecue.

With all my other flavours I find the Evod2s excellent.
They just don't like chocolate obviously

Glad to hear that.

Maybe mine will turn a corner in the next 24 hours.

Could be a crappy head?
Kanger aren't known for their consistent head quality

Could be a higher percentage of sweetener in that flavouring Kibbs, which is nobbling your coils faster than others.
