Hey I see you’re using the zeus tank. I’ve a question. What is your opinion about the tank?Because i don’t know how I feel about it. Sometimes I even like my smok sub ohm tank more than this one. I do not get a lot of good flavour out of it, and if I do, it lasts about 1 or 2 tank refills, and the taste goes blend. I’ve had it for a couple of months now, and I wick properly ( the guy at my local vape shop says so). What should I do, or what am I doing wrong?

Well... It honestly sounds like you're using a bit too much cotton. Or it's not "fanned" before you wick. Also, worth noting is this is the Zeus x mesh.. but if we're still on the same page, make sure when you're trimming your ends to not allow them to touch the bottom of the tank, they should be just long enough to stay tucked but not so long as to touch the bottom. That will cause improper capillary action in the cotton. I've personally found that the feather cotton the tank comes with is a smidge too bulky, it doesn't wick real well, and causes dry hits after two or three hits in quick succession. I personally use firebolt cotton. Two of those with proper trimming and wick length works great for me. I've had the same wick in for around a week and a half and it still has awesome flavor.

I love the tank, and I'm kind of a geekvape, well.... Geek. Feel free to pm if this doesn't help much, it took me about a week to get the wicking on this thing figured out. As with all mesh rebuildables, they're not for the faint of heart but when you get it right, the flavor is insane.

Are you using the original Zeus, or the Zeus X? Is it single coil, dual coil, or mesh?

I have Zeus X and it's better than I thought, maybe you are using too much, cotton, maybe it ain't good cotton or wicking technique, also if the juice is sweet it will wear cotton faster (on standard liquid after 1000 puffs the cotton is still perfectly white and the flavour is pretty good, but when I switched to some sweet af juice after 150 puffs it tastes way worse and the cotton is almost black). If you have any questions just text me
