I am pretty sure the yeti cartos don't hold much to begin with,but they should last more then 15 mins unless you are chain vaping... find another supplier and see if maybe you can get a larger capacity standad 510 carto... stay away from the lr or dual coils if you are using a yeti

also you might want to look into filling using the carto condom method... its the only way I fill cartos :)

The condom method is when you fill the little rubber sleeve the carto comes in with juice about half way. Slowly push the carto in battery side down into the juice. It forces the juice up into the carto. Then add some drops to the top.

I usually add about 5-10 drops, shake like a thermometer, add 5 more, shake repeat until it's fully absorbed. Get yourself a drip tip so it's easy to top off your carto with juice. Once you get that burnt taste the carto is usually done. You have to keep the carto wet.

Don't feel bad. I did that for months and couldn't figure out why everyone was so thrilled with the condom method.

I've never had the atty die in a carto actually. I just had them get old and really gunked up with juice so the draw was really hard. You'll sort of know when a carto has had it.

Some people have really good luck washing them. I haven't but many people here have. I have washed out the clear dual coil cartos but not the regular cartos.

well then I retract my previous post... your last post changes the whole field...lol

try a diff vendor, try diff cartos.... all cartos are not created equal.. look into xl dual coil cartos...or even my fav which is the 306 carto from avid vapor...

What ohms should be used? The 2 or the 2.8? Those are for the 306 cartos you recommended.

I use the 2 ohm....it has a nice draw, excellent vapor, nice warm flavor and the throat hit is just awesome...and the good thing about avid vapor is they have a first class shipping option, which is a lot better then paying for priority mail
