I bought a Bauway 510 Atomizer 2.5 ohms for my ego 3.7 volts. It burns, burns, burns. First couple drags were pretty good, tons of vapor and flavor was so so. After that though it burns my throat, the taste is burnt and I have to drink alot of water to put out the fire in my throat. I've tried it on my passthrough (5 volts) but that was even worse. I also tried it on my 901 with an adapter and that didn't burn quite so bad but still taste burnt and the light on the battery continued to glow for a few seconds after I stopped inhaling causing the atti to over heat. I don't get it. Am I using the wrong device with this atti? In all my tests I used plenty of juice and dripped a drop or 2 on the atti so it's not burning hot because of lack of juice. Can anybody help?

I would be checking the resistance with a multimeter. Attys always have a range of ohms, and this one could be closer to 2 ohms. Also, I find with a dry atty, 4 drops on the bridge is the right amount of juice for dripping. 1 or 2 is often not enough. Burnt taste is generally from an atty that is not wet enough, either not wicking juice well from the cart or not enough dripped. Too hot is generally a resistance issue.
