Sorry to hear about your atty reaction to JC. I haven't had any problems with JC for my attys with their regular PG solution. The reduced PG solution made the polyfil dirty very fast and had a distinct taste common for all the reduced PG flavors. Aside from that though, it was a vapor beast and didn't impact my attys. My main PVs are Blu and Modern Vapor with 306A atomizers.

In the first aid section. Labeled USP glycerin, but also labeled as "for external use only"... from what I've read, it seemed USP is actually higher "grade" than food-safe, but everything I found was confusing, and sometimes contradictory. I'm no expert and won't DARE say it's ok to vape. I used it for a couple days, without incident*, but that whole labeling as "external use only" nagged at me too much and I bought a couple bottles of "Wilton" Glycerine at Michael's (in the cake decorating section). That's what I've been using since.

okay so a few hours later and a very clean atty, my device is working again. I guess I flooded my atomizer? I dripped a little on the coil & I guess I temporarily f-ed it up. Im new to all of this but it just seemed odd that I wasnt getting any vapor after using johnson creek stuff. which has a good flavor and smokes up alot more than regular pre filled carts. i suppose my lesson is dont drip?

Johnson Creek juice, nor any other juice for that matter, stops atomizers from working.
It sounds like you flooded the atomizer, which is easier with Johnson Creek juice because it's thinner.
And then it sounds like you cleaned it, when you probably could have just blown out the extra juice.
And then it sounds like you did not let it dry long enough after cleaning it.
I hope you didn't throw the atomizer away, because it is probably fine.

I hate to say it, but I've been using JC for almost two months now and I just am attempting to clean my first Atty. It was still working but pulling through it was getting to be a bit difficult.
I also just opened my first bottle of totally wicked in menthol (never liked menthol analogs) and I love the menthol flavor.

How old is the atomiser ?, they dont last forever and some die after a few hours regardless of which liquid you use.
Just noticed you flooded it oh well at least you figured it out.

I do think that the JC juices are a little thin and usually add about seven drops of VG to my little bottle that came with the bigger bottles that I ordered when I refill it. However, I have vaped about 60-75ml of different jc juices over the past three or four months and have had no atty problems. I am still using the original two that came with my starter kit. I have flooded my atty before on accident. I took a few draws on my 510 and then didn't seem to be getting much vapor so I assumed that the atty was dry and added a couple drops on the bridge. This flooded it. The fact is that I took too many draws in a row and the atty was too hot and I think that is why the vapor was low. I have noticed with some liquids that if I get the atty too hot, then I get very little vapor. It is fine after I let it cool a little. Anyway, that's my 2 cents.
