I vape close enough to 100% VG and I'm getting fed up with the constant clogging of carto's with in a day or two.

Is there any Atties or Carto's that are made specifically for thicker juices but still produce and equal amount of vaper to the likes of Boge LR and Kanger HC carto's ??

One of my favorite juices clogs up a carto with in a day and then I spend the next couple of days feeling like I'm trying to suck a tennis ball through a straw, it's startin to peeve me off.

Can't afford to be replacing carto's every second day, there's must be a better way.

Thanks guys :D

EDIT: Awww maaaan just realised I left the " i " out of Juices in the title ..... DOH!!!

Unfortunately the answer is no. Thick juices that clog cartomizers will also clog atomizers. One option is to thin it down with distilled water, vodka, or pga. I wish there was a better answer for this but there isn't. I agree, it's a PITA when you get clogged (that doesn't sound right) but you know what I mean. Another option is to have 2-3 atomizers handy. vape one until it's clogged, soak it while you vape on another..keep rotating them out. Even then, it's still a pain.

My 2 cents: I thin thick 100% VG juices with distilled water. I tried booze pga/vodka and didn't like the taste. At first it was just a little weird. Then it got worse. YMMV

I drip almost exclusively. Once you get the hang if it attys can last months. I figure I'll spend $50 with shipping over the next year on attys. I get them in bulk (10). Far less than I'd spend on cartos. Hope you find your happy place soon.

I have tried Distilled Water and didn't like it. It reduced flavor, vapor and made me tight in the chest just the same as what PG does to me, I could definitely tell which of my juices had it in there. :(

This is why I've posted on here as I've tried all the other options and nothing so far works :(

I last used Atties quite a while ago before I found Boge LR and Kanger carto's as the flavor and vapor out of these was awesome so I never went back but I have no doubt there are Atties that perform the same just don't know which ones.

Which are the better Atties in the crowd for flavor and vapor ??

The lr306 seems to get mentioned a lot in dripping threads. I like attys at about 2 ohms for my 3.4v ego and 3.7v e-power, but I'm not sure how they'd perform with all vg. The 1.7 ohm boge attys should be a good candidate as well.

Something for you to think about might be a bottom feeder. The boge revolution and the vapage v-mod have both been upgraded by their manufacturers. Also, some of the lower cost box mods have been getting good reviews, such as this one. http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...at-mods-original-3-7-bottomfeeder-sale-3.html

For a carto I'd recommend CE2. There is no filler to clog and and they are easy to clean, mine last months with periodic cleaning. They can be fiddly though to get the best performance out of them.

If you don't want to go that route someone mentioned a bottom feeder, that matched with a good atty is probably about as hassle free as it gets.

Personally I hate the ce2 cartos, but everyone has their own preference.
I'd maybe try the Ressurector cartos. Their made for 3.7V, but will work on an eGo, just not at their full potential. They are wrapped
More loosely than some other cartos and seem to be able to handle thicker juices better. The ce2 cartos arnt bad, I just hate how you always have to do little things just to get them to work like their supposed to.
I vape a dark 85%vg juice that is thick and have been using the same ressurector for it for almost 4 weeks, and I never clean them. Filling them right is very important to get them to last long, I use a syringe.
While thick juices def clog cartos I find that's not the biggest culprit to quickly clogged cartos. Juices with sediments clog cartos faster than anything so I recommend you try not to use them if you can. I've been vaping 2 juices a lot lately. One is 80% PG with sediments, and the other is what I said before, 85% VG but without sediments. Even tho the 80%PG is very thin, it clogs my ressurectors much quicker than the thick 85% VG. I easily get a few weeks out of one carto with the thick juice, but with the thin juice with sediments, I barely get a week on a Ressurector.
So if you can, try to stay away from juices with sediments, your cartos and wallet will thank you
