    Hi guys,

    I just got my kbox nano yesterday.

    I am facing 1 problem and need some advice.

    No matter how much watt i use, my juice seems to be spiting to the drip tip and i have juices on my lips.

    Thought of buying a longer drip tip later.

    Will it help?

    Please advices.

    Thanks

    When you take a vape, are you pulling (inhaling) strongly? If so, more juice may be entering the coil than can be vaporized. Try rolling up a tissue and inserting it into the chimney of the tank...let it sit for a few minutes to blot up the excess juice and then start vaping again. I just let the vapor come to me...but I'm a mouth-to-lung vapor...

    It sounds like you have too large juice flow. The coil can't vaporize everything. I do not know how to reduce the juice flow on your device. Another option is using a thicker liquid.

    If you just use a longer drip tip, the device will start to gurgle at some point and may be drowning in the end.

    I agree softer drawing can also help.

    It will help from the point of view that the juice will spit still and not reach you yes. But it will still spit.

    Personal experience is that I found more spitting the more PG in the juice. Also the Kanger sub tanks, I have 3 all different sizes, all tended to spit more than other tanks I use. No idea why.

    But I am sure there will be others that can give better information. I only used the sub tanks for about 2 weeks. Sick of dry hits on the build deck from the tiny juice channels. Lol

    Only been vaping for a few weeks, so I might be talking bollocks, but here goes, from my experience. If you are just coming off cigs, you will draw very hard. Set the air hole to the smallest setting and draw slowly. Gradually increase the draw, then move up a hole during the day. I still have to start in the morning with little puffs, but by bedtime (now), I can take a big lung full, like a You Tube reviewer. Like I said, I talk bollocks, listen to the experts.

    Coming off cigarettes, you are probably drawing too hard. Use a smaller air hole to start with and work up from there. The draw on a e-cig is much different from a cigarette. Also use lower wattage if you are using the smaller air holes. I have not used the K-box nano but if it is similar to the Subox kit, 8-10 watts or so should get you started. Once you are accustomed to the draw and open the air up more you can then increase the wattage. The best I could do on the Subox kit with the airflow wide open was between 25-30 watts with the .5 ohm stock heads. Anything over that and the juice started cooking. For the most part if you are getting a lot of spitting with factory heads it is usually due to drawing to hard on a low amount of air flow. There are other causes but I think, in your case, it has to do with the draw and airflow.

    Guys you guys are so helpful. Thank yoi guys so much i am trying each and every advice. I will keep you guys posted on which way work out for me. Might be due to im drawing to hard.

    But if i let the kit boil i can feel the juice spitting like from the drip tip.
    Just like not burn by the coil or something. I need to take out the drip tip and clean it. After cleaning things were find for a few vapes. After that the juice start spitting again.

    Im using 22-27 watt.
    If i go too high the drip tip is hot.
    I am too new to this need to learn more tricks.

    You could try with less airflow, but personally I found the stock Kanger coils exactly the same. Shit.

    I have a similar working eVic Vtc mini.

    You could try the Ti coil at 240 C with 30 W, air-flow tight, 80 - 90 % closed.

    Don't forget locking the resistance when the device is cold.

    Don't know if it will help, but go down on the wattage and see if it stops. Try it out at no more than 15 watts. What resistance coil are you using?
