Hi everyone. I am in desperate need of assistance. I just received an order of "GotVapes FLüXomizer™ CE2-X CLEAR KR808 XL 1.8ml 2.4-2.6ohm" from Gotvapes.com

I removed the black cap.

I Removed the rubber ring

Injected juice into the little tiny hole at the top, filling the cartridge with juice and no excess anywhere.

I replaced the rubber ring

I turned the clearomizer upside down and let it sit for a minute to let the wick get soaked.

I vaped a couple pulls on a 3.7volt manual and it tasted burnt.

Why? :oops::oops::oops:

After destroying 3, this time I looked up some other advice I saw on the forum and tried something different.

I took out the piece under the rubber o ring, the other rubbery piece, and then filled it by dripping down the side, and then dripping a couple drips on the wick at the top.

So far so good! Massive vapor and clean taste. vaping Johnson Creek Black Cherry 18mg and the vapor is just ridiculous. I feel like the flavor is diminished though, maybe I'm just NOT tasting burning polyfill?

Cool thanks. When you say clip the wick opening, do you mean the wick wrapped around the coils, or to either side?

Is the first o-ring after the black cap necessary? I can't see its purpose. The one I am using without that is fine. The others with it are kind of leaking juice into the mouthpiece, but only because I think I stretched the tube when trying to get a damn drip tip on, and may have overfilled it to boot. lol the drip tips just won't insert past the rubber ring..have to use the one it came with, which isn't terrible. I was thinking of cutting off the rubber ring on one of my drip tips to see if that would work..

The silicone/rubber seal that sits on top of the atty does not give enough room for the wick to absorb the juice in that small tight tube.

Here are is a video from gotvapes that shows how to use a paper clip to lift both sides of the rubber seal and give enough room for proper wicking. YouTube - CE2 Clearomizer Cartomizer Tips - Gotvapes Fluxomizer

The same CE2 works like magic in a tank set up because the tube does not press on the wicks and provides ample room for the wicks to absorb the juice and deliver it to the atty.

Once you lift the seal a little the clearomizers are fantastic and give the best flavor/vapor/TH next to dripping.

He means clipping the little notches in the silicon ring near the wicks a little bigger. I just lift the ring a bit myself giving a little more room, and don't cut anything.

The second ring can be left out. It's there to prevent leaking (it covers those little side filling holes when in place). I leave them out when vaping around the house...and pop them in if I'm planning on taking a road trip with several filled cartos :)

Thank you so much for posting this video, i have been sitting on 4 CE2s for over a month, after trying the first one and killing it, this video opened a door to vaping that i couldn't have dreamed of. Loving the CE2 now!!!!!!!!!!!

I've yet to find anything that gets as close to dripping on a de-bridged atty as the ce2s. Like everyone, I wish they were hassle free but they are what they are, and I'm willing to work with them for the smooth vape. Really, all I do is take out all top plugs, pop on a drip tip and go. Only down side is that I can't lay my pv down or it will leak.

If you have a spare cart, you can cut a little off the bottom and use it for a tip. You have to take it off to drip but with the ce2s you can drip 10 to 15 drops at a time so it's not to bad.
