also I don't really know much about wicks, because the person I go to didn't really explain it properly, is there any way of looking up pictures of how they are supposed to look? The way he explained it was that wicks were being outdated and the tank that I have doesn't... use them? I could be totally wrong here, and that may be one of the things I know least about. I'd put some pictures up but it's not letting me oh um sorry it was just messing up it obviously did post two, I have more If this actually posts then these are the other two pictures, if not, let me know if you see anything from the previous two pictures, sorry I'm not sure if it is because I've only just joined or if there is a fault in the forum just now

hmm that could be something I could try, but the device is running cool, not heating up, my step father had an issue where it wouldn't go higher than 8.5w and had to change the coil, so I've tried to learn from the mistakes. I don't really know what "burnt" is meant to taste like if you know what I mean, I just know that it doesn't taste right, maybe sort of like plastic if that makes sense? Yeah it's by the same company totally-wicked I think, it says on the box. I just didn't think there would be an issue after a proper clean, change of atomizer and fluid a few times. The PG on UK fluid is more dominant so could the throat hit over time affect your sensitivity to the taste? Obviously in America (Where it has been more established) companies have had more time to adjust things, and althought I'm what you might call a *Cloud Chaser* lol, it just seems that over here they tend to go 70/30 pg/vg for some reason, maybe for a higher nicotine level, I don't know the whole chemistry of it, but it's just what I've noticed. I've just tried what you said, and seems to be displaying the same voltage/wattage regardless, could it be due to the fact that I usually use it at a higher wattage in general. I can't find many guides for either TECC curve 2 or eleaf istick in regards to charging depending on what wattage you use it at and how long you inhale, are these all variables that need to be taken into consideration for a healthy battery life and atomizer, I really am a noob come to think of it, but good at explaining things I guess lol. Also thank you for the quick reply

Ok so this is a weird question, I've been vaping for about a month and would like to think I generally know stuff about it. I stopped smoking a long time before I started vaping as more of a hobby and tried lot's of different vapors from the same company which all taste different and I grew to love. I've also got different vapors with higher vg to pg ratio so I know this can't be it. Let me start with the basics, there are 4 of us in the family that have the same model (Eleaf iStick 20w, except here in the UK it is called the TECC curve 2). I tried a new flavour and thought it was disgusting, then I realised my atomizer was probably time for a change, so I changed it and the fluid to a different flavour just to see the difference, cleaned out the tank and let it absorb. I'm still getting the same flavour and I've changed it to two different and stronger flavours with different PG/VG. I've also tried the same flavour through other family members tanks and tasted it totally fine. There is just this weird disgusting flavour. At first I thought it was possibly something to do with the fact I got a scope down my nostril to my voicebox last week with local anesthetic so maybe affecting my taste, but when I realised I can taste the same flavour differently from theirs (and even when I put their tanks on my battery) I'm really confused as to what the problem could be. They say that mine tastes fine to them as well, on both mine and their box, So I can't put it down to vaper's tongue. They were heavy smokers just getting their taste back, I never was and didn't smoke for long, is it possible that they are still experiencing the sudden experience of heightened taste compared to me, or can you just kind of go off vaping that fast? I usually exhale through my nose to get full flavour. (sorry for the repeated use of the UK spelling of "Flavour" but it's just habit) For example Raspberry Sorbet and Ice menthol both have the same disgusting flavour but I love both of them. Is it possibly temporary? The other weird thing is that I used to go up to 11.2w which would be 4.0v with an ohm reading of 1.5, right now the highest I can go for similar is 9.7w for a 4.0v reading with a 1.7ohm reading, could that be affecting the flavour? I do know some things but I'm still quite new to the whole thing so any feedback is really appreciated. PS I'm not dehydrated, no allergies are affecting me and I'm not ill at the moment, so any pros keep that in mind.
