Isub 2.0 coils

[wil7985]

Anyone use the isub 2.0 ohm coils, can't stop mine from leaking I have no problems with the 0.5 ohm coils. I have tried four or five now and they leak after an hour or so, they become saturated almost like not enough wattage but I'm vaping at max recommended 16 watts, any ideas folk ?

Try upping the wattage . . . . or/and replacing the cotton wick which is so simple to do wil7985 .





You might also find that 16 watts on whatever device you're using isn't quite enough . . . . I vary between 20.5w - 25ish on the 0.5ohm coil between different mods.

( shez had the same leakage issues with hers, which were cured by more power. )

Hello, just to say that I too am using the iSub 2 ohm coils and have never had an issue- using at 12.5w.

Actually I never even knew that a coil could leak by itself, isn't it usually something on the tank not being tightened enough?

It might worth to change the O ring at the bottom of the tank section

All the o-rings have been changed on three different tanks (isub- g's) they still leak after about an hour pancser and I have tried two different batches of coils. Strangely no leaks at all when I put 0.5 ohms coils in, gotta be something to do with the 2.0 ohm coils.

Thinking about it maybe something to do with what beeper said, I have arthritis in my hands perhaps I ain't getting them tight enough?.

I agree with the change the wick method, they might be a little to thin.

I have had a go at re-wicking Perpetua and so far wrecked three coils (bloody arthritis in my hands), the recommended maximum watts is 16 in the 2.0 ohm coil. I used some rubber gloves last night to tighten the tank last night as beeper mentioned and so far it seems ok,  .

I'm sure someone would have a go at re-wicking them for you wil7985, if you put up a wanted ad . . . . sorry to hear that your arthritis prevents you from doing the job.

What PG/VG ratio do you use - as you might also find a higher VG ratio ( if you don't currently use it ) would help.

Thanks folks for being so helpful, as you always are.
