Hello, I am new to this site, but have been looking at it for a long time. I have an Electronic cigarette, 1 of those cheapy 20$ ones and I refill the cartomizers. After a little while, they stop absorbing the eliquid and only get like 2 drops in. I tried a version of boiling but that left no vapor or flavor when i refilled it(but it did refill). I know its not full when it stops absorbing because I start to get a different taste and vapor goes down. I have been struggling with this problem for a while and would really love some help.

Use thin juices (high PG). I use 80PG/20VG

Use light clear juices. Dark, cloudy or opaque juices often drop flavoring sediment that clogs cartos and turns the stuffing into a solid pudding-like mess

Cartomizers are disposable. I can get 7-10 days of use out cartomizer or about 20ml run through it. Then I fill and settle a fresh one and throw out the old one.

Thank you for all of your advice. I just recently ordered the 510-t ecig and in wait for it now. I have found a solution to my problem by removing the filament of the cartomizer and direct dripping onto the atty inside it. Turns out the inLife Regal ecig cartomizers have a bottom coil atty inside so i was able to remove all of the burnable material. I am now looking for a way to turn the cartomizer into a tank or possible mod it into a 3 piece ecig for my own amusement :)
