Aero tank mega resistance increasing

[xantivenxm]

I think salted caramel is a strong cause of coil gunk...
Just swapped one today as I said.. just went from the 1.3 ohms it started as to 1.4...

That was the problem then. In your last picture that is exactly what the older dual coils head was like, very easy to coil in.
First question, can you coil?

If not prepare your heads to that point and send them to me, I'll coil them wick them and send the back as the older style heads, which in my opinion work much better and are far easier to rewick. They will be single coils but I've got them in any number of protank aerotank mega tanks, all work very well.

As I said the old protank heads are even easier just needing an inverted chimney silicone on the chimney to seal it. Pm me one way or the other.

prr thought I'd give an update on this! I pulled apart a few more of the kanger heads to find they all had the same issue. Gunked up, most were black as coal! I found several coil legs snapped with the bottom coil resting on a working leg - probably the cause of the resistance issues.
Got myself some kanthal a1 0.4mm thickness wire, and built a coil using that builder guide and your instructions and hey presto new working coil!
The guide gave me 8 wraps to get 1.2 ohms but it's settled at 0.7/0.8. Working perfectly fine and vaping happily at 12W
I will try the salted caramel juice to see if the cotton wick is able to handle it any better - but at least I can now remove the cotton to dry burn and re wick!
Thanks for your help mate saved me hundreds I'd have spent buying more of the kanger coils only to have them die in a few days!

xantivenxm well done bud, pleased for you and glad to be of some help!!

prr definitely were, didn't have the courage to try coiling before! Preach the word lol down with premade coils!!
