Hi Guys

Has anybody else been having problems with these coils lately? I recently purchased a 5pack of the 1.4ohm MTL coils and for the first 3/4 days it's amazing thereafter loses flavor and I only get dry hits. Is there something wrong that I am doing? I believe these coils were meant to last close to a month? I have tested with different flavors and still get the same problem.

Can anyone suggest an alternate coil that I can use for MTL hits? The device that I am using is the Vaporesso Target Mini.

Any assistance will be much appreciated :)

If any of you still have the Vaporesso Gemini Tank that take the cCell and gave up on it because of the airlock... I may have a solution for you thanks to Jess at Ohm my ECig and Ben who visits the shop often... take off the top as if you were gonna fill the tank and then remove the O-Ring from it and replace it with a smaller tighter O-Ring... I didn't think it would make a difference but it most certainly does and I have been using my Gemini tanks again!

Given the choice I would always choose a Melo 3 Mini for the simple reason that it is perfect in every way other than size.

Nope I just grabbed a small one from my stock... but I'm told those little O-Rings the kids use (multi coloured ones) work... I didn't have any so just tried ones I had...

Any fix for the guardian tank @Rob Fisher

On a side note, just received my melo 3 mini tank today. Quite keen to give it a go after your recommendations:)

I haven't played with the Guardian Tank much but didn't have an issue with it... it's more for the MTL crowd...

You are gonna LOVE your Melo 3 Mini... hope you got some 0.6Ω cCell coils for it?

I think I may have just fixed my cCell airlock issue in the Lemo3 by adding this o-ring - thanks for the post @Rob Fisher
At the same time, I removed the o-ring that I'd put on the top of the coil-head (as per the tank instructions).
Not sure which one fixed the problem, or whether its the combination of both. But I'm pretty chuffed to be enjoying that elusive cCell flavour again!

I'm part of the MTL crowd, so if you do come up with a fix please let me know :)

I actually decided to try out the 0.9 CCell on restricted airflow and it gives a pretty decent MTL on the Melo. Flavor is amazing and no airlock issue!:clap: The only thing I don't like about the tank is that it's such a mission to unscrew the base to replace the coil.

Yip, MTL all the way for HRH and I on the Melo3 with either the 0.9 ohm cCell or the ECR rebuildable.

This tool works perfectly to hold the top part (grip it on the metal at the bottom on the glass) whilst you unscrew the base. Get it here.

Ahhh I need that tweezers in my life! Thanks @Andre .

Do you by any chance have the link for the ECR rebuildable? I would like to read up more on that option.

I'm really quite keen on doing the rebuild after seeing that link you posted but I have a few questions if you don't mind me asking @Andre, as I'm completely clueless with regard to coil building.

1) How many times can the ecr head be used ?
2) What other supplies would I need to buy to start building my own coils in addition to the ecr head (in the link you provided)
3) How does this route compare cost wise with commercial coils?

P.s ideally I would want to build 1.4/5 ohm coils, I found that resistance I enjoy the most for mtl.

Thanks in advance :)
