So what model # is the SE Gold?

I'm asking because I'm in the market for a new atomizer.

Any good recommended web sites that sell these?

I believe the SE Gold is a "badged" RN4081. I'd do some searching based on that information and see what you come up with.

Yep, I found it. Of course I would like to find it cheaper. I'll do some more research.

I have a JOYE 510, but I like this SE Gold. I love the taste of its mint cartdriges, and when you manipulate the air holes on it, it produces excellent vapor. I may just invest in another atomizer or two. They look to be fairly cheap.

I have an 801 that I purchased from LiteCig USA. It had the burnt metal taste straight outta the box and it doesn't nor has it ever vaped right. I watched some instructional videos here at the forum. I thought mine was vaping right untill I watched those. The guy in the vids was using a 501 I think. I read somewhere that the 801 doesn't perform nearly as well as some of the other models. I have been able to get the 801 to hit and vape right by covering some of the 4 air holes on the atty with my fingers. If I do it right, it hits smooth, no burnt taste, and I get lots of vapor.

Some of you may wanna try my technique. Just cover some of the air holes on the atty and see what happens. The atty gets a little hotter than usual doing this, but it hits WAY better.

The whole metal tasting thing really stumps me. I busted my atomizer trying to fix it.

So if youve sacrificed any hrdwr doing this...again sorry

So I'm a bit baffled w/ the inconsistent results.

FYI...I'm using the atts w/ string removed that I recieved in a starter kit from innovapor
As of my original post about removing the said culprit...I'm still on the same atts.

I constantly rotate 3 batts I have on charge and VAPE MY FREAKIN BRAINS OUT, especially in the eve's and wknds...matter of fact I'm lookin into a pv because of the whole battery charging drama LOL..any suggestions?

go to Mod forum to learn how to make you a 18650 batt box, that would last you over a day of mad vaping!

* For the burnt atts taste, even you ppl do not want to pull those nilon string out, you still have to trim the parts that turned( had been burnt) to black to totally get rid of that taste.

dont burn your atty's.

I'm sorta new still. Been vaping for about a month. No burnt atty's yet... Just keep it nice and wet, not flooded. Only do dry burns after I blow everything out first.

Not sure why so many people seem to be having so much trouble with this. It just doesn't seem that complicated to me I guess.

To poster #2 - I would not every mess with my attys - Yes, make sure there is no cart filler material down there but other than that, everything thats there is there for a reason...

Lashes · 11-05-2009, 07:22 AM

And to the poster that says their atty doesnt burn red hot - Either you arent doing it right, its too wet, or your atty is bad.

A dry 510 atty should glow red within 5 seconds or so of holding down the button...

You guys are getting that burnt taste because you are running your attys too dry. Wetten em up a bit.

The way to get rid of that burnt taste is to soak them in ISO (rubbing alcohol) for an hour or two, blow them out, run them under the water faucet and blow them out a couple of times. Then let them dry on the kitchen counter batt side up. Burnt taste gone.

SO I made the same mistake as many and pulled out the inner wicking to discover my atty was giving an even worse burning taste. I decided to try a little folded strip of nylon tulle, that i use for cart filling (it doesn't melt at least from atties), and stuck it inside the mesh. Dropped a few drops and now its working just like it used to with no bad taste.

I'll keep this thread updated if anything bad happens =)

EDIT: Also just tried this on my High-bridge 801 atties which i couldn't get wicking well, now they work GREAT hopefully its not just the dripping and the cart will wick to it as well.
