Can a Dirty GG burn out Atty's quicker?

[designinme]

I have a GG Transformer, and REALLY like it. I have had great luck using BE-112 attys with the GG. Recently, I purchased 10 new ATTYS, same place I usually buy from.

In 3 days I have burned though 3 attys? The attys work great for about a day.. then the next day the vape drops off. I have to constantly blow them out.. and refill with e juice ( I drip,.. have been dripping for 5 months ). I don't run it try.

In three days, three have died. I mean, absolutely no vapor. The only thing I can think of is my GG is kinda dirty. I have yet to find a good solution to soak it in to get ride of the build up. I highly doubt that could cause damage to any atomizer, but I have to ask? I am using the same type of batteries and same juice.. and the same brand BE-112's.. I don't know what is going on! Any help?

Same thing use to happen to me dripping, I never had any luck with dripping 801's, I did find some that use to last longer than other though but finally I went to the LR801 Atty and have had much better luck.!! Just a question why not use an AFS instead of dripping this will resove you problem, I use to do just as you are till I switched. The AFS works great on your GGT as well

There was a reviewer that complained how hard it was to maintain a GGTS a couple of months ago. Since then I've been experimenting. I haven't been cleaning mine. I wipe the outside with a paper towel if it gets "juicy", and I blow the leaked juice out of the atty connector, or just rinse it under the tap. I drip with 510 attys. So far, I haven't had any problems.

a dirty GG not only will not burn atties but it will make them last longer my friend design because it lets less current to pass through the atty. The batch of your atomizers is bad. Very common problem with China atties. Some day we have to solve that problem too.

At the end of the day it is not a GG problem, it is a atty problem ie how much juice you supply or how long you supply current and how much, you may have purchased a bad batch of atty's
I have been dripping for month's with L/R atty's which last me about 2 weeks with original Slim & 16340 or TR 123A GGts with no problems at a cost of about £2 a week for atty's i'm happy, on 901 at 1.7 ohm at mo lovely
To be honest the low resistant atty's last me just as long as standard

I was watching a video yesterday about the dry burn atty cleaning method. (Didn't bookmark the thread, alas.)

Can't remember who it was exactly, but I've seen the guy around a lot.

Anyhou, he was saying that he had to be careful doing that with 801s, because they were more prone to a stray bit of juice hitting the coil after heating it to the glowing point and snapping it.

Hi Clyde
I'v tried all cleaning methods but if you buy 5 packs of atty's they work out very cheap and last on average about 2 weeks so why bother

Sorry, I didn't explain adequately enough. I'm thinking that, postulating from what was said about cleaning the 801's, that it may not be the best for dripping. In other words, a stray bit of juice may be hitting the hot coil and snapping it.

Yes see what your saying, mind you who would drip on a red hot coil?

 

[clyde2801]

Hopefully no one. And who would drip on a coil in the middle of a dry burn?

What I am saying is that a stray drop of juice already in the atty may hit the coil while vaping; same as the other guy said it did during a dry burn.

I dry burn, red hot all fine then it dies when I use it normally in a nano second... No telling with these stupid attys

The stray liquid will be hot so cannot see his point unless you use a mega big atty about the size of a bucket, most of mine get to hot to touch

I've had very unsatisfactory results with a recent batch of LR BE112's. I get between 2 - 4 days before the vapour drops off (using GGTS with AW18500 batts). I'm sure I got longer before... 10 - 14 days I think. I really love this configuration with the GGTS, so I'm going to try LR 801's and hope I get a little more success. I can't afford £8 per week on atties...

Something wrong there. Try Cartos from here :

You using an AFS/AVS?

Thanks for the info sadtranz

I won't mention where I got the LR BE112s from, but I'm sure the supplier must have had a bad batch- they are usually very good. I haven't tried the LR 510s from LF so will definitely give them a go if they last a bit longer.

I used to be a bit fussy about atties and flavours, but since I got my GGTS a few months back, any atty and almost any flavour gives a very satisfying vape.

I have found that, Sometimes ya get some really good attys and sometimes ya dont. It seems like not one is the same. I have had a great one from one batch, and a crap one from the same batch. Usually the airflow is different on many of them too....some are tight draw....some are very breezy draw...same batch, same kind of attty.

It just seems that the margin is so wide when it comes to attys...I really hope over time, they can make them more reliable.....They vary so much...That ya dont know what to expect sometimes.....It can drive ya nuts...

 

[HoPeFuLLL]

Agreed Tim. Certainly makes life hard when a reorder gets you something different.

 

[Zoranth]

The problem isn't so much which supplier you buy them from. But the complete and total lack of adequate Quality Control from the other side of the pond. For some reason, they are unable to make the exact same part, the same way twice. This is because each atty is assembled by hand and leaves way too much room for variables. If they were assembled on a mechanical assembly line, they would all be the same every time. This holds true for everything you get from over there and will always be a problem until the manufacturing is done where someone actually understands the concept of reliability and repeatability.

 

[imeothanasis]

True!
