burnt taste, please advise!

[NoobPatrol]

I just recieved my unit today, it works fine with a cartomizer, but when i tried the atomizer with a cartridge i get a burnt taste, i made sure the cart is nice and wet, but not overflowing, but i didnt put anything directly into the atomizer, should i? If possible, please provide with me very specific instructions on how to get this thing working in the best way?


Thanks in advance!

pull the stuffing out of the cart use it as mouth piece only... then drip like a 70 year old prostate. Search how to drip.

Did you blow out the primer? Blow the atty's out into some paper towel. Add a 5 or 6 drops of your juice and do the same again. Add 2 or 3 drops to the atty and reinsert the cartridge. Give it a primer puff or two and off you go. Should be good.

Stuffing shouldn't cause this when "nice and wet." My vote is for primer fluid, or didn't give it time to wick.

yes i would put 5 drops directly on atty then blow it in to a tissue really good then 2 drops and pop your cart back on , first thing u need for an atty is a drip tip

 

[NoobPatrol]

which end do i blow from, the metal end that attaches to the battery, or the open end?

 

[wood]

i blow from open end , pput a tissue at the battery end and blow

mine tasted burnt taste also , so i dropped 3 drops on the ato and work fine (i always drop 2-3drop on the ato)

thanks all! I will try this asap, is this also how i would drip? I am looking to try 9-10 flavours tonight, so how do i go about dripping? I dont have the drip tips, is it possible without it?

ya just pull the white filler out of a cart , basically every 5-8 puffs you will add 2-3 drops , once the flavour or vapor fades its time to add 2-3 drops , u want to drip right before it tastes burnt to keep the atty nice and wet , you may flood it a few times getting the hang of it but just blow out the atty if you think its flooded ,
i aso blow out an atty to change flavours
you will just have to pull your cart off to drip and then put it back on

Yes, you can use a cartridge as a drip tip. Just pull the stuffing out.

Thanks for all the help! This forum is fantastic.

After further reviewing what i purchased, i have a "cart cone", is that for dripping? or what purpose does it serve?

if you have a drill or sharp knife you can make the hole in the cart large enough to have a makeshift drip tip.

I Find a 306 atty is preferable. Both the 510 and 306 atties I use are low resistance. So far the 306 atties I've used have come with no primer liquid in them making them quicker to break in. I use a Reo Grand and I've found that a freshly charged battery can be on the hot side resulting in a burnt taste. Trying to combat the "hot" toke I find myself pumping more juice but this can result in splashing, I hate that. Using the plastic tip that came with the atty or a carto will greatly reduce any splash. After running the Battery down a bit then a regular drip tip and conservative squonks and I'm in Bliss. I'm starting to think I should use a standard resistance atty with a fresh charge battery and then swap in the LR after an hour or so. I think I'm starting to see what the benefits of a VV, Darwin, or kick would be . I'm hoping they come out with a Kick that will work in my Grand soon.

What juice you got ? and ecig?

 

[NoobPatrol]

i have a kranger 801 (808) or something like that, with the 1100 mAh batteries, cartos, carts, and clearos with it. I have about 12 different types of juices, raspberry, banana, rootbeer, etc etc. So far it is good, i just need to sit down and try all the flavours tonight!

Sorry I guess I digressed a bit, My points were Burnt taste from 510 atty is likely from primer I recomend the 306.
Burnt taste can be from to many volts this can be corrected by changing the ohms of your atty or using a Varible volt mod.
Yes you can use a cartridge or plastic end in place of a drip tip, which will also help if your experiancing splash.

i havent heard of a 301, is that a different thread? I am very new to this (today is my first day with the unit) I dont want to drip regularly, i cant be doing that at work, etc, i just want to do it to test all the flavours i have. Thanks for the help.

After all the good advice given Primer on atty or dry atty you guys are forgetting the taste of the fumes from money burning a hole in his pocket. Welcome to E cigs
