OutWest - are your atomizers with the awful taste also from best-e-cigs? Mad, I bought a set of 5 atomizers from them some weeks ago too. I have meanwhile tried 3 out of those 5, and all 3 have the same issue as yours. It's bad enough that I can't find the courage just yet to even try those last 2... recovering at the moment with the use of other atomizers I luckily also had around...
So... it might be a very bad batch of atomizers from the one company?
(Edit: if it's just the primer, first blow out what you can, that lessens what you have to work
through by 90% if not more...) (and no, I know what primer-issue is and the issue Mad and I are having is definately not a primer-issue).
