Cisco Atty playing games

[alexvander123]

So about a month or so ago I got 3 510 1.5 ohm Cisco attys for my Reo mini the 1st 2 were great but once an Atty starts to lose performance I chuck it. I threw my last one on yesterday and it was the best out of the 3. It held juice great and hit like a champ, until this morning it kept giving me dry hits I fiddled for awhile and unless I flooded the hell out of it, it would give me dry hits. So fellow Reonaughts any ideas?

Can you measure the atty's resistance with a multimeter? You can also try cleaning it to make sure the air holes are not clogged.

I use them exculsively on my mini and grand. Clean them weekly with PGA, swap with a used one. I've only had one fail in 2 months (1.8 Ohm) and that one was a slow death. I tend to keep mine just on the line from flooding and squonk every 2-3 toots! But I have also found that every atty/device/liquid takes a little fiddling. Not a big deal for me as I seems to get consistent performance.

Check your tube to see if its not feeding up properly.

Yeah I'll measure the ohm when I'm done with work. But I'm only 18 and its sorts of hard for me to get my hands on some PGA are there any other cleaning methods I could try?

You can use 91% or 99% isopropyl alcohol instead of PGA or Vodka.

Thanks everyone for your recommendations! But I was stuck at work with a bunk Atty so on lunch I dry burned it a bit and ran it under water dry burned again then more water blew it out and dried it with a heat gun a bit. So far so good we'll see how this goes.

Boba's Bounty is known as an carto killer. You have to keep them clean. I ran about 100ml through a couple of atty's and found it quickly clogged them. Cleaned them every 6ml. Super hot water and a good blow-dry work well as long as you don't go to long between cleanings. One reason he started making a custom atty for 100% VG.

Here's the solution.

common folks, i just wanna know more about dry burn if this is it (the solution)

from what i read dry burns burns the goo off the coil/bridge of atty, but it shortens the life span if it.

Dry burns are bad .... don't do it.

What solved the OP's problem wash just the wash and dry.
I've had it happen several times on Cisco 1.5 attys.

Here is my take on what causes this. Sometimes juices gets burnt and is mistaken for a dry hit because of the retched taste. So another squonk comes along and now your vaping along on the wet side but it still taste really really bad. That burnt juice co-mingles with the fresh juice and now you have more burnt juice in your atty.

The only thing to do IMO is rinse it out and begin again.

I havent nailed down how the juice gets burnt to begin with but I have a theory its vaping too wet and taking too long of drag.
Coincidentally if you are vaping too wet sometimes only the long drag will get the vapor you desire.

I've backed this up by learning to vape pretty dry in the atty and I haven't had burnt juice in months.

 

[jun0felix]

yeah, that's what i know about dryburns too. recently i read about dryburn - if ever - only at very low voltage, e.g. 3.1v (some people use to dryburn as a visual test for their genisis-type atty...) so far i have no success by cooking, hot water, alcohol, even supersonic treatment ...

so keepin' the atty dry is a good reminder
