Let's be honest: dry vape hits are the worst. If you've ever experienced one, you know exactly what we mean.

Picture this: you’re craving a vape, so you grab your device and start puffing away. Suddenly, the vapor tastes burnt, and the throat hit becomes unbearably intense and hot. What you’ve just experienced is a dry vape hit—every vaper’s nightmare.

A dry vape hit is caused by improper wicking or the heating coil leading to burning through e-liquid too quickly. This results in a mouthful of hot air or smoke from the gunk burning off the coil.

While bottom-coil clearomizer tanks are designed to reduce dry hits by keeping the coil saturated, they can still occasionally fail, resulting in that dreaded burnt taste.

Although dry hits are not usually dangerous, they can be harmful especially if recurring. They can cause throat irritation and coughing and potentially lead to harmful substances being inhaled. This is all because of the overheated materials. Regular dry hits might indicate a problem with your vaping device or technique, so addressing the issue promptly is very important for a safer vaping experience.

While it's impossible to eliminate dry hits entirely, you can take steps to minimize them:

1. Keep Your Coil Moist: Always ensure your heating vape coil is wet. A moist coil prevents dry hits.
2. Avoid Over-Vaping: Refrain from chain vaping, power vaping, or using too much voltage. These habits can dry out your coil.
3. Lower the Voltage: If you’re experiencing regular dry hits, try lowering the voltage. This can help maintain proper e-liquid saturation.
4. Take Longer, Slower Drags: Give your device a rest between sessions and take longer, slower puffs. This helps maintain proper wicking.
5. Use Primer Puffs: Occasionally take a primer puff (without activating the battery) to force more liquid into the atomizer chamber.
6. Adjust VG Levels: High VG e-liquids can cause wicking issues. If dry hits persist, consider using a lower VG e-liquid or diluting your e-liquid with distilled water.

An advanced vape kit offers various settings to help avoid dry hits. If you’re still experiencing issues, it might be time to upgrade your vaping device.

If none of these strategies work and your box mod is getting hot, it's a sign of other problems. Upgrade to a premium vaping kit to improve your experience and reduce dry hits. Check out VaporFi's collection of high-quality vape pens and vaping devices.
