I am a dripper but decided to try LR Carts based on some really good info on ECF. I followed the instructions on filling using the condom method and gave it a try. I got very little vapor and after the first puff it started to taste like burning filler material. Is this normal? Is there less vapor in a cart than dripping?
I will never ever ever ever ever recommend LR 510 carto's untill they fix them.
Unless the design has changed the sleeve over the filament on the inside is not very heat resistant, at all. 3 out of 4 LR 510 atomizers that I buy ALL burn up that sleeve. Your inhaling whatever that crap is. I've only bought about 10 of them the entire time I have been
vaping.. thinking I was doing something wrong or maybe I got a bad couple batches.
It doesn't matter how wet I get them, how long I let the juice soak in, or what kind of juice I use. They all melt the sleeve.
The last one I had I threw on an ego battery (which, granted, was already 4 months old) and when I activated it got REALLY hot really, really fast. Something inside it actually caught fire, and the battery died instantly. Was it just because it was an old old abused ego battery? Maybe... But I dont trust those lr carto's and I will never use them again, period.
If I can figure out which graveyard bucket they went into I'll rip it open and post some pictures for you guys.

Mine may have been a bit more charred, but this is pretty close.
I use carto's because when im out because I do not want to be dripping every 2 minutes. Having to keep it it *that* saturated to keep the thing wicking fast enough to avoid the burning is counter productive.
