Default Filler sticking to addy??

Has anyone had problems with the original filler and/or the Fluval filler getting stuck to the addy. I use a 510 and both fillers I used were constantly getting stuck to the addy and creating a terrible burnt smell and taste. I cut the filler shorter to counteract this and then not enough juice gets to the atty and it runs really hot. Anyone else?

I also need to know this. Are there errant fibers sticking out of the batting or the fluval? Whichever one doesnt is for sure my winner.

The Fluval seems to be better than the original batting but still has stays. I bought the Fluval tonight and tried it as soon as I got home and within 3 puffs I pulled off the cart and it was stuck to the addy. I even made sure to trim it up nice. So I dunno. I have been using the teabag filler which works well but I can never seem to get them to run dry before I need to top it off because I am not getting very good hits anymore, so I feel like I am wasting juice with them... not sure what the best solution is.

Fluval never seems to be that much of a problem sticking to my atomizer on the 510, be sure your not confusing that with the the wicking stuff under the atomizer that some people have and pulled it out thinking it didn't belong there and it did.

What I do is fill the cart with 8 drops or so, slide the Fluval down in so it saturates and pull it back up so it's just below the edge of the cart and put a couple of drops there but not so much to puddle. The trick is to keep it wet, I also will flick the wrist before starting a vaping session like it's a thermometer.

Fluval in my Dragon works great... I just cut it to size, I add about eight drops in my cart and then put in fluval, then add a few drops to top it off, I don't flick my wrist... (Don't want to shake liquid into my battery...) - I usually have a tad liquid at the top of the cart and just gently touch my atty to it before slipping the cart back into mouthpiece and sliding mouthpiece onto the atty... So no need for a "flip" and I get every drop wicked out of my cart ALWAYS- when I take the fluval out, sometimes there will be like a drop maybe of liquid in the center of the fluval piece... I just refill w/ same flavor or a combination that includes the same flavor- or... now I will be squeezing that last little bit w/ syringe into an empty bottle and save it for a custom mix or something... I did just rinse that last teeny bit out and use again...
Ever since I got Fluval it works wonders... oh! I have no fibers hanging out of it either- I cut it w/ clean sewing scissors (I also sew and stuff so these are readily available to me) ...

Never twist your cartridge once you have inserted it onto the atomizer.

Ahh, the twist may be the problem. Lets see if that makes the difference....
