Been vaping 8 weeks now after many years on the fags, I have moved up from a starter kit to spinner with Mini Protank 3 and Vamo 5 with Protank 3. Tried many juices until settling on RY8 in fact bought so many juices I pushed up the share price of PayPal !! After a few leak problems I thought I would upgrade to the Naturevape coils - excellent performance and a change in flavour. But guess what - I don't like the enhanced flavour. What do I do, revert back to Kanger coils or start the juice hunt all over again ? I feel that I am making progress by not having a fag for 8 weeks after been on 30 a day but I can't find a combination that I can settle with. HELP

Well done on giving up the stinkies I would suggest keeping hold of the coils you have. Depending how long you smoked your taste buds may still be adjusting slightly - you may find you enjoy the juices through the nature vape coils later. I would reccommend holding on to them for the time being, try some new juices in them and see if you readjust to the enhanced flavour with something totally different. If you are still having trouble with new juices then perhaps try the Kanger coils again. Many people seem to have success recoiling the protank coils so you could consider that - might give a flavour and performance somewhere in between. Sure many others will have sound advice to give, whatever happens I hope you find the happy medium that works for you. Best of luck, Mikey.

I would revert back if you were happy with the flavour before. Could be that the protank mini3's are dual coil naturebreak are single coils. I prefer the single coils of protank mini2's with cotton wick but it's all personal taste.

What flavours were you enjoying goneforagasper? Many new vapers start with tobacco flavoured juices but go off them after a couple of months as their taste buds come back to life and realising that stinkies really do taste

Can I suggest if you have the protank 3 the large one that you are using with the vamo, get a kanger airflow controller if you don't already have one, this will allow you to find the airflow that suits you. Adjusting the airflow also has an impact on the juice. For example, if you have a thin juice, you would open the airflow and if you had a thicker juice you would close it a little to aid with wicking, that may cure your leakage problems.
In addition, with protanks,the trick is to not let them run too low, it is recommended that you should be refilng when you get to around a third full, some say that this is because the tank operates on a pressure system and needs to be over a third to perform optimally.
Over your vaping journey your tastes will change and it may be that you no longer like the juice that you started with. Chuck it in the cupboard for now and explore some of the samples out there, it can be frustrating finding the right juice, but don't give up.
Well done for keeping off the stinkies and don't loose heart, hope I've helped

I don't like fruit ones and did like the RY8

Well done for keeping off the stinkies and don't loose heart, hope I've helped I have the airflow controller and do adjust it to vary the draw and I do keep it topped up not letting the levels get too low. I hear what your saying about continuing to try more juices but I seem to be trying so many If I knew of a retailer in West Yorkshire with a big selection of samples I am prepared to travel to find a juice that I like

Its not that it is too strong it has changed the flavour and I am not suited to the "new flavour" I have been mixing one or two of my liquids to try to improve it but no luck so far

Good idea thank you. When I have tried liquids I have loaded them into my tanks. I believe you can use drippers to test 2 or 3 drops of each but I don't know what they are (sorry to sound thick - I have a lot to learn)

Looking further down the line, if you don't mind the flavour from standard Kanger coils, then you can always use premade wires (£1.50 for 50) from Fasttech. They take 5 minutes to change over. I am alternating between these and homemade microcoils with cotton wool. 3p or, about 3p...

I will order those Karma, thank you - can these be used more than once or is it 1 dripper per juice sample
