Titan Tank Serious Issues.

[Jonnizero]

Okay so I bought a Titan Tank today so I wouldn't need to cart around my big DCT set up.

So I got it home, charged it up, filled the tank with liquid, popped it in and the following happens:

First the vapor is like burnt rubber, the taste is foul and the vapor itself is stinking I even dropped some liquid onto the atomizer and truthfully I aint sure if its actually vapor or smoke from something burning inside!

Secondly after 2 - 3 puffs the atomizer get so hot it feels like its burning my hand! It cant even be handled comfortably.

...and to top it all of the atomizer and battery don't even thread together well, I'm afraid I might break the damn thing just doing the simple task of screwing on the battery!

I don't want to do it, but this might be the first time I will want to get my money back from TW.  Am I doing anything wrong? I followed all the instructions and even looked through the forums and videos on youtube and can't see anything I have done differently.

The wife has a Titan Tank and it works like a charm.
Simply screw together insert Tank & vape.
It looks as if it’s a job for customer support. 

[Jonnizero]

Yeah, Its a shame really. Its the first time I have been dissatisfied with a TW product. Maybe its just a dud?

i have been looking at some fault finding and the tank has not to bee filled up full just leave about a 2ml air gap at the top when filling up this alows for air flow let me know how you get on thanks

[Jonnizero]

Yeah I left the gap lol. I followed the online tutorial and I read the instructions. I will bring it round for you to see over the weekend.

Strange? I have got the same had no problems with standard cardridges and atomizers on the Titan only burnt issues on the Cartomisers,  Cyborg's right! Talk to TW

Looks like our re-seller djbazx has sorted you out Jonnizero...

Defo sounds like there is a fault somewhere.

Let us know how you get on.

Thanks

I believe this got sorted. It was a mix up between PG and PEG. PEG just want doing the job so barry will get some PG sorted out

[RichJr]

Peg-400 is an aquired taste

[Jonnizero]

Yeah. Minor mistake made and getting sorted. Props to Barry for sortin it out for me.

[danwldr]

Ok, I get the taste thing, but why was the atty getting very hot?
Just for future reference 

[cyborg]

Not sure what was wrong but its good to see you got it sorted.

[Jonnizero]

Not sure what was wrong but its good to see you got it sorted.

Well apparently the atomizer has to work a lot harder to vaporize PEG-400 because it has a much higher boiling point than PG or VG its also quite thick and can crud up the atomizer.

[cyborg]

I can see the reasoning now, I haven’t used PEG myself but do know that an old tired atty isn’t up to the job so I assume the atty has to work harder than normal therefore heating up more than normal.

[StevieD]

Whuile PEG does need an atty to be at the top of its game as a tired atty won't get hot enough to vape it properly, it doesn't 'crud up' an atty any more than VG or PG. If however you flood an atty with PEG it does take more work to clear it by tailpiping if you don't blow the atty out.

[Kenneth131]

Well I tried peg yest but i had to keep the power on the atty a little longer to get vapour. It wasn't the best vapour and some went in my mouth it tasted like a burnt rubber band it was not pleasent. I'll stick to vg and pg

[RichJr]

Well I use peg sometimes and yes it has a taste sort of but as for the vapor, peg-400 rivals 100% VG! I've never run my peg mix through my VV but it does rival my VG mixes at 3.3v. I bet at 4+v it's amazing! You may want to use a higher amount of flavor concentrate to hide the oily taste / feel. Also peg has a larger molecular structure so in theory it won't get lost in your body as much as pg (VG is in between both).

[Jonnizero]

Well after discovering and correcting the mistake the Titan is vaping like a charm and I will be steering well clear of PEG-400

[Kenneth131]

glad you got it sorted mate and glad your enjoying the Titan its a nice compact kit for taking about with you.

[Jonnizero]

Yeah that why I picked it up really.... I was getting some dodgy looks in the pub when I pulled out my 1000mah ego with DCT lol

[Kenneth131]

ah after a while you dont even notice and pick it up without thinking,. I was in Hamilton asda tonight and was vaping away going round. Probably go some looks but suppose just sparks their inquisitive mind. There was some amount of drunken bams around in the store mind you. Thats what happens when its sunny out i suppose. Strathy park was full of drunken teenagers as well was a bit of a pain in the ass but was a nice night for a wee walk

[Jonnizero]

Haha well my mate says "It looks like a crack pipe" Let me tell ya... standin at a bus stop in Sunny Springburn with a pipe like device can get you some amount of attention...

One old woman looked at me and said to her wee pal... "Disgraceful"

[RichJr]

I really love all my devices. I use different ones for different occasions. I do love the look of the steel mega titan tank when I'm out looking flashy

I've had much the same issue with one I bought last week online.
