Hey ECF, I've been doing some simple tests - no sort of hardcore vaping - with some clearomizer models at 3.3-3.8V and heads that are anywhere from 1.8-2.8. However, after failing to get much of any good experience from them, I go to inspect the heads, and quite a few of them look extremely charred. Shriveled up where the coil is, the wick completely charred, they look like they were set on fire, and I'm quite concerned since A. Silica is supposed to be heat resistant and B. My battery shouldn't be doing this to wicks this quickly (obviously a burnt wick will taste bad or put out no taste) at the settings I use. I have indeed had my battery tested and there seems to be no voltage issues - using thin juices by major brands. To put it frankly, these wicks make Tim Heidecker covered in Cigarette juice (see below!) look downright pleasing.
Any answers? What do your wicks look like after a few short periods of vaping?
