Ive been using 510 attys from that devil company for quite some time, and decided to order some from another site. they seem to dry burn alot and i noticed that the bridge looks taller than the my originals, also the metal inside looks different. I think maybe the tall bridge is pushing my filler in deeper and losing contact, i dont know why it would? unfortionatly cant remmember where i got them from, very displeased with losing $26-28 .Please help, thank you, Mo.

The quality control is not the best - but the company that makes the attys for that devil company is, imo, one of the better ones. Depending on what you got the joyes/TW should have a metal mesh base and again, depending on what others you got - SLB, eg. may have a bit of metal mesh or just a washer type base. The metal mesh base tends to keep the coil wetter and so less likely to get a dry atty burnt taste. But the best prevention and what you can do with the ones with the washer base is to refill or drip on the first sign of a loss of flavor so you keep everything wet - near flooding but not quite so that you don't get to the no flavor or burnt taste which is what you get if you go past the 'decrease of flavor' stage. I don't use anything but the joyes on the 510 unless I'm trying stuff out.
