I got some rubber tipped/silver thread cartos during the week. I have been using 2, one worked ok right away the other one is producing very weak vapor, no th. The later one has been in use for about 48 hours or so. I'm using 25 drops. Should I just throw it out versus contuning to waste liquid on it? What is the normal brean-in time for these? I decided to go with cartos since they are cheap and I was getting frustrated with regular atty's going out on me all the time, also for use while driving since I only drip. Thanks in advance.
1st attempt at 510 carto's, questions?

Mata, are you using the same liquid in both cartos? And what is your method for filling? I use 510 cartos and have had great luck with them...except the ONE I didn't put enough juice into, and it burned

I just remove the rubber top and drip 25 drops onto it. I am using the same juice for both.
Edit:
Now both of them are producing weak vapor. I belive these are made by Bodge, not sure if spelled right. These are the ones everybody think are best fom what I heard. I'm using a tornado battery.

When I refill, I will use one of two methods...When dripping into the carto, I will then cover both ends with a tissue and shave it really hard, even tap it onto something hard, then cover the battery end with the tissue and blow any excess liquid out of the carto. Having too much juice in the carto will stop vapor production. I also condom fill and do the whole cover, shake and blow with that.
Some juices will also be too thick, or too high a PG concentration will contribute to less vapor. Are you getting flavor and no vapor? These are all questions one would ask to help you completely.

I am using 18mg dk liquid. I tried blowing it out to get ever last drop of juice out if the carto. It looks like I'm getting good flavor. I'm going to try to get 10 drops via the condom method, then 10-15 drops on top. Thanks.
Yes, the battery is clear of juice. My first one seems to be defective. The second one is now producing ok vapor/min th, nothing to write home about. I'll just continue using these strictly when driving/going out. Another possible solution would be to go with higher nic liquid to make up for the crappy vapor production, I will try this later on. Thanks.
