Ceramic coils and compatible tanks

I have a Velocity v2 BF, Marshmallow Man, a few drip tips from @hands and a Gemini tank in my @Sir Vape basket.

With all these hassles, I'm wondering whether I'm making a mistake with the Gemini tank.
 
I am just sitting everyday reading this thread while vaping on my Crown.Never an issue never a problem.

Vaping doesn't have to be such a hassle.

Crowns Rock !!!!!!!!

You simply can't compare the flavour from a Crown to a Gemini or a Target Tank. Not even close. No question the Crown is trouble free and a great leak free and a tank that works well. But flavour wise it's no competition.

The reason we are persevering with these issues is because when they do work they cannot be beaten for flavour.
 
I've got a Gemini & a 2 Target Tanks .... never a issue with the Target Tanks, but the Gemini leaks like crazy, even with the juice flow holes closed. I leave it to stand over night with the juice flow closed and in the morning it's leaking! Same with priming coils - battle to prime them in the Gemini, change them to the Target, give them a few pulls with the air holes closed and away they go..... Anyone got a Target Tank they want to swop for a Gemini?:Laie_22mini:
 
Oh wow I now have the same issue in both Gemini tanks!

The one tank has worked like a dream for weeks now... and the moment I put the 0,8 coil in it's now giving crap. OK can switch the coils back now...
It must definitely be the coil then

I personally have 2 target tanks and 2 crowns.Target is nice for low power 30W but some juices just don't shine at that wattages.

Some juices need more power to shine.Crown give me that flexibility.

I got my crowns a year ago.I also keep on buying all the latest tanks but there is just nothing to compare it with.

Unfortunately it spoiled everything else for me.

Everyone's vaping style is different.(Big thing is the juice one vapes and the wattages one prefer)

It is just funny,that all my customers that buy a crown,never even try anything else.They are so happy with it.

Some sell it to try another tank,then they always come back for another crown.

All I am trying to say is,is it really worth spending so much money on trial and error all the time.....

I hear you... can't argue with your rational... but it is worth persevering because for me nothing matches the quality of the vape on cCell ceramics!

Is it worth doing anything! some of us like the journey, the quest, the adventure and the fun. If we all gave up at the first little obstacle sat down threw our hands in the air and waited to die (and you will die one day) what a sad dismal World it would be.

So update from my side went to vape cartel and got me some ccell 0.9 kanthal and primed coil with few drops filled tank and right now busy vaping on it for past few minutes and I'm smiling again. Taking big lung hits and no problem no dry hits no bubbles just pure enjoyment. I feel like swearing the idiots at vapereso who supply shit that we paid good money for. I will update if anything changes but so far almost finished half a tank and loving every second...:campeon:

OK so the 0.8Ω work but they stuff up the Gemini system and we have the bubble or lack there of problem... gonna rip out the 0.8Ω now and replace it in the new tank...

We will eventually win! ;)

I think vendors need to send the cappy coils back and demand for new ones coz it's upsetting to the clients too. Moral of the story with ceramics stick to 0.9 coils and u will be all day every day

For sure they should send those coils back because in essence you are paying for them . They came with the purchase of the tank but it's all included in the price. Now I had to fork out another R365.00 to buy a pack of 5 coils.
 
Anyway Mr @SAVapeGear Vape store owner, Supporting Vendor, and poster of over 1200 post on here.
Just look at the contribution (to the World) you have made through time, money, effort and endeavor, quite an achievement.

" Is it worth doing anything! " - Yes it is worth giving people advice. Some people have money to spend and others don't.

My statement I made is " All I am trying to say is,is it really worth spending so much money on trial and error all the time..... "

Thanks @DaveH

I strive to give the best advise if and when I can.I just tried to make it clear that some may have money to throw in the water and some don't.

I personally have made a lot of bad choices on gear in the last 7 years and waisted a lot of money on this journey.

This is all I wanted to say:

China is taking all our money :D
 
The rest is all forgotten. Last night I swear I was ready to do a preasure test on the Gemini and ride over it with my car, but tonight I think she might be sleeping between me and my wife... Hahahaha
So conclusion- if you have a target or gemini tank. Just use the 0.9 ohm coil and you sorted.

I was also checking most vape shops they aren't stocking single coils anymore and u basically forced to buy 5 coils and hope and pray at least one work I think it's Bull. If you bought eggs or goods from a supermarket and only one out 6 eggs were right you would take it back and merchant will refund or replace. That's what I think should be happening imo

Its really sad about the 0.5 coils because I am so tempted to get a pack at vapeclub with their brilliant pricing. :(

If they willing to take it back if they duds go for it. Otherwise I wouldn't take the chance. I haven't read one persons comments that are good regarding the 0.5 coils.

Suppose its worth a shot asking if they would. Its a steal at the price for 5
 
Nah actually it is a good price

Seems the 0.5 is good for 3 puffs a day. One in the morning, one around lunch and then just before you go to bed.

Update on my gemini tank using the ccell 0.9 ohm kanthal coil. On tank no. 3 and still going strong. Not even 1 sign of a dry hit. Pure smooth flavour.
If you considering a new tank/rta you gotta try the Gemini. We've gone through the pain and suffering so you don't have too. Just grab your tank and .9 coils and you will be smiling away :)
 
I agree vendors should be held accountable to replace/refund for bad coils. We already know from brother Rob's attempt to even just get some clarification from Vaporesso direct is they are not going to deal with end users directly. Coils picked up from a local B&M maybe easy enough if the vendors live up to it, but from long distance vape mail another story, including that most will cost you the shipping back to them to get a refund/replacement (at least from most sellers).

Fortunately runs of all to near all good so far .9Ω coils have been found, so quality control or design specs must have changed from those first lots of them. Unfortunately it's looking like a repeat performance from Vaporesso with the other Ω value coils, and now maybe faulty Gemini tanks to boot. So a race for the almighty buck by Vaporesso who is putting the cart before the horse at customer expense and satisfaction. That does not speak highly of them.

I have to chuckle some at the comments about "having to buy 5 more coils" though for whatever the reasoning is simply because the coils are not renewable. Buy them now or buy them later, but buy you will if you want to keep the tanks in use, and you knew that going in. ;)

Personally I am going to stay with just the .9Ω Kanthal coils in my tanks. I have 48 coils from the same lot number/same vendor that I have never found a bad coil in (yet) to see me through. The vendor would refund without question I think because I discussed it at length via phone with them when trying to confirm a large supply of good coils with the same lot number as mine for everyone here. If any/enough ever do fail to warrant my even bothering about it I guess I'll find out.
