Hi gals and guys,
Im e-cigarettes newbie and I encountered the problem which I cant solve myself nor find the answer searching Internet. I described it exhaustively to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings.
The device
After a few days of research I decided to bought:
1. Smoktech Mod Natural.
2. Smoktech RSST (Rebuildable SS tank) it uses a new type container which has milky color while the older version of the container was transparent.
3. Mesh 400.
4. Kanthal D 0.25 mm.
5. Two batteries: 18650 3400 mAh and 18350 800 mAh for the comparison purposes.
The problem
According to my research Genesis Atomizers should give the best taste and smell sensations and Mechanical Mods are very reliable and tough. I chose Smoktech Mod Natural with Smoktech RSST because I like their design features and adjusting possibilities. Unfortunately in my case they reveal some nasty problem. I tried a few tobacco liquids made by a few producers and in each case the taste and smell were almost the same: more or less oily. In fact its very unpleasant motor oil-like taste and smell greasy and artificial.
The setup
I washed the atomizer before I used it for the first time and since I encountered the mentioned problem I wash the atomizer meticulously each time before I change the liquid in such a case I also burn an old liquid on the wick or I change a wick.
It seems that my coils are perfect without any hot-spots. I cant measure their resistances because I use Mechanical Mod and my multimeter isnt precise enough to detect such a low resistances. I make the coils wrapping Kanthal D 0.25 mm wire on a bar which has 3 mm diameter and I do 3/4 wraps on it. The distance between the lower and the upper wrap in my coils is equal about 5 mm.
As for the wick I tried three variants: 1) 20 mm wide Mesh 400 wick made using the method described in Internet as petar k method the wick in that case isnt oxidized but just burned gently to clean it; 2) 30 mm wide Mesh 400 wick moderately oxidized; 3) 50 mm wide Mesh 400 wick intensely oxidized.
The liquids
So far I tried a few tobacco liquids made by three producers: Dekang, Joye, and Trendy (Polish product). As for the mentioned Dekang liquids I had the opportunity to try them before I bought them. I tried them in the shop using the sellers eGo Atomizers filled with 1.1% liquids and then I bought 1.8% liquids. All of them tasted and smelled rather well on eGo Atomizers but they taste and smell more or less horrible on my Genesis Atomizer.
When I sniff the fresh liquids I smell the same motor oil-like odor. So my problem concerns the liquids rather than the device. Because the results were always similar and bad at the same time Im hesitating which liquid I should buy for the next time to test it. I suppose that all liquids which I tested so far are based on propylene glycol. So maybe some liquids on the basis of vegetable glycerin would be suitable for me? Unfortunately the liquids contain apart of propylene glycol, nicotine, and fragrances a lot of the other substances so I cant be sure that the propylene glycol is a culprit all the more so because its allegedly tasteless and odorless substance.
The conclusion and the question
The results of my tests seem to show that Genesis Atomizer reflects the real taste and smell of the liquids indeed while eGo Atomizers and probably the other devices as well falsify the taste and the smell. Unfortunately I dont know which ingredient causes that unpleasant effect. So my final question is: which tobacco liquids dont have the dreadful greasy and artificial motor oil-like taste and smell?
Because of the mentioned reasons I direct my question mainly to the Genesis Atomizers users. To swap Genesis Atomizer to eGo or the other one isnt an option in my case. I have already the satisfying device now I need the satisfying liquid. To try the liquids including a fruity or the other fragrances isnt an option as well. I dont need the liquid which camouflages the unpleasant taste and smell but the one which hasnt it a nice tobacco-like liquid.
