Harsh vape from RTA

Hi dear vapers,

Ive got myself a reload 26mm RTA. Took few attempts to get the wicking right, and the flavor is really good.

But one thing ive noticed is im coughing much more and vape feels to have more throat hit than when i vape the same juice in steam crave supreme v3 or even the blotto.

Has anyone experienced something similar with various RTAs and does this got something to do with the coil placement and coil leg length

As rule for me my coils run about 1to2 mm above the bottom airflow if its side air, mid to bottom of the coil gets the air ,wattage and your draw strength can also affect things hope that helps

it may not be wicking fast enough and drying out a little causing you to cough. Maybe wattage is too high? I’m not familiar with that particular RDA so I can’t advise, but maybe your ends need to be thinned out, or maybe too long? If you’re a chain vaper, as I am, this happens often with wicks that aren’t “just perfect”. Hope you find the problem.
