I have a Joye 510 manual and have had it about two weeks now. The last few days every time I use it the atomizer heats up and gets hot. I have tried making sure there is enough juice in it, making sure the fiber filling in the cartridge is placed properly in it and have cleaned (outer only) the atomizer and inside area in the batter. I am using a juice mix of 50/50. Can anyone tell me what may be causing this?
Atomizer getting hot

I would try cleaning the atomizer. Sometimes an atomizer gets gunked up then it's harder to get it to make vapor so you are holding the button down more and it gets hot.
You have a spare atomizer? If not, then you should have at least one spare atomizer. I was going to suggest switching to your other atomizer and cleaning this one.

If it wasn't getting as hot before then you need to clean your atty/coil - sometimes the resistance reduces making it run hotter when there's gunk on it. Soak it in 151 proof vodka (uncolored/unflavored) is best - the cheap stuff - Galen's for example. Let it sit for about 20minutes - then blow it out - you should see the vodka go yellow from dissolving the gunk. On occasion you may see particles. Anyway, once dry, then do a dry burn - hold down the button for 5 seconds about a half a dozen times and then remove and put it back in the vodka - this time 10 minutes - blow out and continue vaping - if it is still running hot, then it is wearing out - vape until death
Thank you all for your quick replies! My daughter and I shared the kit, so I am only using one e-cig right now, but I will try her atty and see if it does the same thing. If it does, then I will clean both of them. Thanks Kent C for the detailed directions for cleaning the atty.
