Hiya. I've tried cleaning this atty, but for some reason, even if i drip 3-4 drops on it after cleaning or blowing out the atty, it will glow bright orange within a second! Did i mess something up with it, and is it salvagable?
510 attys glow orange FAST! help?

keep dripping until it stops glowing. your juice might be too thin to drip with.
attys always take a little bit of extra dripping to get them back up to speed after a cleaning or blow out.
Just to clarify where my logic on this issue stems from:
I'm a 510 dripper with a tornado battery. I modded my attys by pulling the wick and bridge out. I can't say for certain if my logic is applicable to normal cart usage. But I can say for certain that the first time I dripped was the last time I used a cart.
I've yet to find a straight PG juice that hasn't proven to be problematic for dripping. They just never seem to hit right. But using a 20% VG mix does the trick wonderfully.
So with that in mind...
Don't be surprised if you have to put 4 to 6 drops in to get an atty to hit right after it's been cleaned. And I always end up adding a drop every 2 or 3 puffs for a bit to keep it from running dry (turning orange) until it gets back to normal. From that point on you can just add 1 or 2 drops per usual. Hope this helps

A nice cleaned atty will start to vape well after the second round of 3 drops on the bridge. It takes some juice to moist all the mesh, but you can't flood it also. So 3 drops...vape a bit...3 drops more and cart in. It will vape normally after a few puffs.
My cleaned and bone-dry 510 atomizers take 10-15 drops to make sure I saturate the coil area. That nickel foam holds a LOT of liquid! I don't count drops anymore, I simply squirt liquid onto the foam until I think it's too much. Avoids getting that nasty dry cart taste.
