There could be a few reasons why your Novo 2 pods keep burning. Let’s dive into some possible explanations:
1. High wattage: One common reason for burnt pods is vaping at wattages that exceed the coil limits. Each coil has a recommended wattage range, and going beyond that range can cause the coils to heat up too quickly and burn the wicks. It’s important to stay within the recommended wattage range to avoid this issue.
2. Chain vaping: Another reason your pods may be burning is if you are taking many puffs in a row without giving the wick enough time to re-saturate with e-liquid. When you vape continuously, the wick can dry up faster than the e-liquid can be absorbed, leading to burnt hits. Try to take breaks between puffs to allow the wick to soak up more juice.
3. Insufficient priming: When you first install a new pod or replace the coil, it’s crucial to properly prime the wick. Priming involves saturating the wick with e-liquid before using it to ensure that it doesn’t burn. If you don’t prime the pod adequately, the dry wick can quickly burn when you start vaping. Make sure to follow the manufacturer’s instructions on priming your pod or coil.
4. Sweet or high VG e-liquids: Some e-liquids with high levels of sweeteners or high VG (vegetable glycerin) content can be thicker and gunk up the coils faster. This can lead to a burnt taste and decrease the lifespan of your pods. Consider using e-liquids with lower sweetener content or a higher PG (propylene glycol) ratio to help prevent coil gunking.
5. Overusing a pod: Pods have a limited lifespan, and using them for an extended period can lead to burnt hits. As the coil gets worn out, it may not be able to vaporize the e-liquid efficiently, resulting in burnt taste. If you’ve been using the same pod for a while and experiencing burnt hits consistently, it might be time to replace it.
To summarize, burning pods in your Novo 2 can be caused by vaping at high wattages, chain vaping without allowing the wick to re-saturate, insufficient priming, using e-liquids with high sweetener or VG content, or overusing a pod beyond its lifespan. By staying within the recommended wattage range, allowing breaks between puffs, properly priming your pods, choosing e-liquids wisely, and replacing worn-out pods, you can help prevent burnt hits and enjoy a more satisfying vaping experience.
