Like everyone else, I got two new atties with my Joye 510 kit. It took a good day of vaping on each atty to get them broken in nicely, to where the primer taste was totally gone and vapor production was high. Both were swimming in primer out of the package, so I blew and blew until they were as dry as I could get them before first vape. I've had these both for a month or so now, I vape fairly heavily, and both are running strong and beautifully.
Nothing lasts forever, so I hit up Rocky Mtn Vapor for a couple of new Joye atties for the inevitable time that my originals die. I got them today and decided to begin the breakin on one of them. There wasn't near as much primer goop, but enough blew out so that I know there was certainly an adequate amount for shipping. I blew it out well, attached, and dripped 5 drops to prime. Before those 5 drops were depleted, the chem taste was gone and it was blowing nice clouds of smoke. I guess my question is this: Is it normal to have such a seemingly short breakin period? I mean, I'm not complaining at all here, it just seemed very atypical compared to my first experience with the first two atties.
Also, the flat sides of the bottom of the cartridge (that surround the bridge) all seem to melt a little on every cartridge I have, whether I use it for dripping or filling. Is this normal or am I causing this somehow? Too long of a burn? Design flaw? What? I don't seem to notice a burnt plastic flavor, and it does not seem to inhibit performance. I was curious if anyone else has noticed the same thing. It seems like every cart is just a tad too long, and that being too close to the coil is melting it a little.
