510T; Do they just fade away?

[KonaNeil]

I've been using BE112s and 510LRs for quite some time. Am trying my first 510T.

I know everyone says that atomizers should last a month but mine start to lose heat and vapor after about 2 weeks. Sometime in the 3rd week I'll toss them or try to clean them.

This 510T seems to be fading away after less than a week. Is this normal for this model? Also, I don't see a way to do an overnight drain like one does with normal atomizers. Is there a trick to doing this?

Other than these issues, I like it very much; not having to top off a cartridge all day, just refilling in late afternoon.

It depends on weather that particular T-atty is wicking right. If you hear a sizzle after you let go of the button, it means that not enough fluid is getting to the wick. If that is the case, the atty will only last a few days, because it is always burning the wick.
I would say at least half of all the e-go tank atty's don't wick right. The evidence of this is a diminishing SSSHHHEEEWWW sound after you take a hit.
