I have been using ecigs for about 2 months. i love them, but it seems like they taste burnt way too often. i have a kr808 and i seem to only be able to put in about 6 drops before it comes of one of the ends....i have tried different methods of dripping, all with the same result - coming out of one end. what am i doing wrong??? its really frustration when i put the ecig in my pocket and sneak away for a break and then it tastes burnt :(

Cartomizers are rated for 1 use. You have to be really careful not to smoke it past its prime or you will burn the poly that surrounds the coil... Once the poly is burnt, the wick doesnt absord the liquid and you are smoking dry wick which is why you always get a burnt taste.

Are you by any chance dripping into the center airflow tube? If you do, your eliquid will run through the carto never saturating the filler. Try dripping slowly down the cartomizer walls untill the filler is fully moist but not dripping wet.

What cartomizers are you using? They are not all alike, but most should accept at least 25-30 drops (when empty). Some take more.
