Hey everyone,
So I thought I'd made the perfect coil yesterday. Lovely flavour, looked great in the tank and was performing well.
Fast forward to about an hour ago and it was nasty dry hits, burnt flavour and generally crappy vape.
Also, and maybe this is just coincidence it seemed like my juice was just disappearing a lot quicker (no leak).
I'm using a Crius 2 single coil rta by the way on an 80 watt mod with a .42 DIY spaced coil (well I was).
Anyway I stripped it down and first of all the coil looked like it had shrunk, it looked like it had re coiled itself to virtually touching again (a tight no gap coil, still don't know their name yet lol)
It also look generally really scorched.
Then I got my tweezers to pull the wick out and it was basically already in half within the coil and looked pretty scorched in the centre.
Any reason this would happen? Maybe not enough wick?
I've just rebuilt the lot and added a bit more cotton this time.
I will take pictures if it happens again and also take pictures of my build next time to show coil placement and the wicking.
I've already rebuilt it now so I've missed the chance with this one.
Thanks in advance for the help.
