510 Loosing Vapor???

[SlowsIsFast]

OK so I have had my 510 for about 2 weeks now. At first it produced good vapor then it seemed to produced better vapor after being used for about a week, now it is hardly producing any vapor. I have 4 attys and it is the same story with all attys. Any ideas as to what could be going on? Are my attys dirty? I cleaned them in Everclear. Also there seems to be less flavor coming from my 510 than when it was new. If anything there is more of a burnt taste than anything else. This is going on with all of my attys. Any help would be great. Thanks.

The 510 is fussy - my personal view is they don't enjoy being cleaned. I've cleaned ONE in 4 months that was acting up and it didn't really help it. I usually just buy new ones as a pack of 3 is cheaper than a weeks worth of cigs. where I live. My average life span on my JOYE 510 attys is roughly 4 months (thats with no cleaning, just blowing them out). I have some non JOYE attys (cignot was out of stock so I went elsewhere) and they haven't lasted AS long but theyve been 'ok'.
I have to add that I drip with ALL my attys (even the 901s), and I find that helps a lot as far as avoiding burnt taste goes. I think almost all the attys Ive tried just need to be wet constantly, and not even a bit dry or this burned taste thing can happen. Sometimes its also a crappy atty, but Ive been lucky there so far. If the atty is dead I jsut chuck it and replace cos life is just too short to be mucking about with em

You probably just need to blow out the juice. Blow into the tiny hole end of the atty until a few drops come out, then tenderly blot the atty inside and out with a kleenex, and you'll be good to go. I think.

OK blew out the attys and it is making a little bit more vapor. Still not as much as it was before. Maybe my attys are already on their way out.

I've been having the same problem with my 510 atty's. I got mine from Heaven Gifts Wholesale & Retail Best E-smoking Supplier in China, not sure if they are "low quality" or whatever. I tried cleaning them out by swirling them around in some boiling water, it brought them back to life for a few hours, if that. I vape VERY heavily though. My ecig never leaves my hand. I would say its just poor quality atty's but my last batch from the same supplier lasted several months and my new ones are only lasting a few weeks. I think maybe its time for me to try another supplier, and while I was at it I went for a more powerful PV, needless to say my Janty Ego is on the way and im hoping ill be pleased

I don't know what's happening with the 510 attys. The first ones I got last September stayed strong for literally 3 or 4 months. Now the ones I buy from anyone just seem weaker for some reason. They don't die off, they just seem weak in the vapor department.

Have you tried the drip method with a T-tip? I haven't used carts of any kind since I started dripping several weeks ago. It works great, you can get lots of mileage out of 3 or 4 drops and it's so much cleaner than fooling around with carts and filler materials all the time. Have a look at the metal T-tips at Super T Manufacturing's subforum and the delvin (plastic) T-tips several others are selling now.
