Cartomizers not working?

[MrTanuki]

Hey all,
I was just wondering if anyone was having any troubles with their cartos?
It's happened on only a couple occasions for me.
I got a 5 pack of Pineapple in 18mg, 2 of them vape great, and the other 3 just won't do anything. I've tried them on my regular autos and my xl manual, same results on both batteries.

Also, my friend received one of those super sale kits with the two unmarked batteries, and 3 cappucino carts he received with that he told me don't vape at all. I haven't gotten a chance to let him try on my batteries yet, but he assured me he charged up the batteries and has cranked them all the way down.

I've tried unscrewing the carts a slight bit to see if that works, but alas, no vapor.

Any ideas?

I'm new to the VK, but I just ordered Hilton carts and they didn't fit the batts (didn't screw down right) but work on the PT. (not sure if that's your problem, just an idea)

Wow, I don't know why I haven't tried them on my passthrough. I left all those "bad" ones in the car, and it's cold outside, so I guess I'll bring them in from work tomorrow. Lol.

Take a look at your carts and batteries do they have a slot at the end of them? Your new battery might not have a slot but your carts should.

I have 1 that wouldnt vape,but after I put it on the passthru for a few minutes it worked fine on my bat.

I have had a couple that didnt want to screw down all the way on the battery. It's the threads on the carto not being "perfect". Forcing them on will "cut" the threads and now they work fine. If you dont want to force them on in fear of messing up the battery threads, then don't, simply stating what worked for ME.

I have a couple of cartos that won't screw down all the way on the battery. No problem; I just use those on my passthrough.

A few of my cartos didn't produce any vapor when I first attached them to the battery. Put those on my passthrough, took a couple of drags to wake them up, put them back on the battery and they were good to go.

Like Dan, I have had a few cartos that didn't want to screw down all the way and I just gently forced them and then they were fine. I did get a chocolate carto last night that didn't want to vape - terribly hard draw and not much flavor or vapor. I opened it up, readjusted the tubey thing to the center and fluffed up the filler and it worked better, but still not as good as usual.

The other day I had a carto with almost no airflow. I put a paperclip through the battery end, but it wouldn't go thru.

Popped the cap & pulled the O-ring & everything looked fine. When I put the paperclip thru from the top, a little piece of metal fell out the battery end. It looked almost like a tiny bullet.

Just one of those odd things.

I just got a starter kit from V4L, I had a grape and a chocolate that did not produce any vapor. I emailed support and mark actually called me. I was unhapppy with it and wanted a refund. The next day I changed my mind cause I missed the throat hit and flavor,I refilled the pineaplle carto with pina colada and now I am vaping for life. I also filled cinnamon roll from diy flavorshack in a rinsed out whiskey {yuk} carto and I am in vaping heaven. The grape cartos that I got would not vape? so mark is sending me a new 5pk of my choice,Now thats customer service!!!!
