new fully filled carts and 2 puffs later it tastes burnt like crazy. let it sit for about 5 minutes and 1 more puff before it tastes burnt again. i pulled the ptb out of a fresh filled cart after 4-5 good drags and it was damn near dry. do the 801's normally suck up that much juice? my 510 as everyone knows has a much smaller cart but it lasts so much longer than this new 801 i just got. can someone please shed a little light on this for me?
I have a brand new atty that goes through juice like an older atty does at 6V. My thought is the resistance of the atty is allowing the atty to run hotter, thus use more liquid.
I don't use carts, because I'm simply not good with them. I never had luck with PTB's, and the best use I have found with carts is a stock cart on an older atty with a higher resistance. It doesn't go through the juice so quickly and seems to do well at keeping up with the vaporization of the liquid.
There's a bit of a science with all of this. You have to keep the atty wet as Sun said, and if there is anything preventing it from remaining wet (chugging through liquid faster than it can wick, or simply using liquid at a fast rate) you are going to get that flavor no matter what type of atomizer that you're using.
As you use the atty, the resistance will build and it will start performing "slower" which may be better for your carts.
EDIT: I almost exclusively drip, even at 3.7V. 5-6 drops on a low resistance atty, 4-5 drops on a high resistance atty, no matter what voltage.
