Is there a 510 (or any carto for that matter) break-in time? I got the pre-filled carts (big mistake) and didn't like the juice. I vaped it for a little while anyway, but couldn't tell if the lack of vapor was because I wasn't using VG (like I normally do). I was generally unimpressed with the cartos compared to the 3 piece design, but again maybe it was because of the pre-filled juice. I blew a bunch of the juice out and did some taryn spins and condom fills with my regular VG and it seems like it's getting better but now it's making some new kinds of weird sizzling noises.

I know cartos are notorious for their crackling sounds, but I didn't get much of that with the pre-filled liquid. I get some sizzling now (not too much crackling) with the VG. Is there a break-in time for cartos or do I just need to vape with my normal juice to fully enjoy them?

I never found there to be any break in time on mine.

One thing you can do with a prefilled carto is to flush the factory juice out of it. Just pop off the tip and flush out the carto under Warm tap water. Blow out as much water as possible and let sit in a warm place for a hour or so. You can also gently suck out the carto with a shop vac. Then refill with you favorite juice.

One note. If you get a carto the draws to easy, too much air, you can plug one of the small holes in the carto with a filled down tooth pick.
