    Maybe i am being paranoid lol. I have a pen style on order with passthrough from bestecigs, apparently the atomizer does not get as hot. I just dont want to have gived up smoking only to have taken up something with dire health risks.

    I do understand how you feel, I am a little paranoid about it myself...I don't worry too much about the vaporized juice...but for some reason I do worry quite a lot about the idea of inhaling 'any' burnt polyester type material. I suppose the tiny amounts couldn't possibly be worse than smoking tobacco but the worry is still there.

    Have you tried dripping? I never bother with cartridges, too much faffing around.

    Looks like it just might need washed, dried, and filled up again. I'm still fairly new at this but after a week I noticed performance reducing. I took out the cart stuffing, washed it under very hot water in a small tea strainer, let it dry and it worked much better. Plus it looked new again. After so much liquid I thinks it gets gunky and compresses. Just my thoughts.

    Flooding your atomiser isn't really a problem, you can just drain it but getting liquid in the battery isn't good, that can kill them. The skill with dripping is to learn how to keep the atomiser not too wet or dry. It takes a bit of practice but I think it's better than cartridges once you get good at it.

    If you get a good UV light like the Stylus Streamlight UV, you'll be able to clearly see any filter material that's gotten stuck in your atomizer.

    Bad news, dripping appears to have killed my usb passthrough, maybe I went overboard. Am attempting to dry out on hot water cylinder. Luckily I have 5 batteries.

    Kept same cart in for an extended period and noticed that the cart is melting. Topped up regulary.

    This happened after using batteries for power.
