510 atty always flooding

[P4C0]

Hello, I got 2 attys and the performance is terrible compared with the ones that came with my kit, the problem that I'm having with them is that no matter what it seems that they always get flooded.

If I refill a cart (no mods, original) I get one puff then hard drag, super hot atty and no vapor. If I blow them off and burn everything, I add 2 drops of liquid, one puff and then hard drag, super hot and no vapor 8-o

What I have to do to get it back on track is to blow it up a bit (from battery end or cart end, doesn't matter) it then work again but I don't get much of it (specially almost no throat hit).

Is it possible that there's something wrong with the bridge? or similar? looks to me that instead of getting liquid in the coil it goes to the air inlets... Is there a process or something that I can follow to make it better?

Both from the same vendor, I used them 1 week or so without problems then this the original ones have been working without any issues (same liquid) maybe I got a bad batch or maybe fake attys? (is there such thing as fake 510 atty?)

Help please!

Well I'll address the one that ticks me off the most about this market first, I've been dealing with the manufacturers for a little while now working on my own brand..

Yes, there are fakes. Just about every factory from the reputable ones to the bs ones all offer a "510" model. Some vendors save a few bucks getting it from another manufacturer cheaper, or possibly they're further down the supply chain and their own distributor is doing it without them knowing, so don't jump to throw accusations against your supplier.

Personally i'd mention the problem to your vendor first, since its clearly a problem with the atomizers you bought. Any businessman worth two cents knows many customers would return and even pay double price with a vendor they know will bend over to make sure they're happy then chance it with one that might tell them to .. off post-sale.

That said.. when the atomizer is failing on you, are you trying the same cart with the other atomizers that then work? When I had a 510 I constantly had problems with flooding with refilled carts, and I've had atomizers fail instantly upon flooding on top of it.

Personally that and randomly premature battery failure and the whole "turns itself on for no reason even though its a manual battery and you dont notice until you hear it hissing or pick it up and nearly burn your hand off" turned me away from the 510 but it was a great starter ecig.

OH!

last ditch effort, give the atomizer a bath in cola or alcohol, let it dry well, and try it.

I've saved one 510 atomizer that was 100% dud doing so

Try tilting the l.e.d up and take drag if you think its getting flooded. Keep it tilted up for a min then turn it down to get juice to drip or wick again onto the atty. Hope this helps. It works good for me.

I think there's something wrong here, if I refill the cart complete (not just 2 or 3 drops) even if I insert it with the battery facing up and take a puff that way it gets flooded same cart in the original atty (the one that came with my kit) works perfect...
