Do some juices last longer and or wick better than others?

[happyonnic]

I am very new to this so dont have much frame of reference but my halo juice wicks better and gives me what seems to be three times as many draws as the prefilled carts I bought with my first ecig. I havent noticed in the juice reviews Ive seen any mention of wicking quality or number of draws produced.
I am using an m401 from litecigusa. The prefilled carts I have are the small ones with the three little wings on the side from litecig and were visibly full. I rinsed the carts and am using the same cartridges for my halo juice yet it is performing 60% better. I am suprised that those qualities are not part of the judging criteria given such a marked diference between products, but like i said I am new.
I have seen alot of people saying their 401 only vapes half of the juice they put in it. Mine is vaping every drop of the halo everytime. Onthe prefilled it was hit and miss, but mostly miss. Sometimes it would vape it all but usually not. Maybe this juice is just better in those catagories. If that is the case I hit one out of the park on the first pitch coz the taste and the experience is very realistc to me especially if I mix freedom and newpure, but again i am a newbe.

Never used halo but quality juices will produce much different results when compared to some others. In prefilled carts the juice may also have been in the cart for a long time so this could have some effect. VG is thicker than PG and can cause difficulities in some models

Emphatically, yes! I'm surprised there isn't more discussion about this either. There's a big difference in different suppliers' liquids, I've found, and it's not always the cheaper brands that don't wick well/produce a lot of vapour, though I can say that the biggest juice manufacturer (Dekang), which most suppliers sell, rates poorly for me in wicking/vapour production.

I haven't tried any VG yet (just ordered some), but most here say it produces more vapour than PG. However, I've gotten lots of good vapour and wicking from several PG brands - Vapor Station's juice is excellent in that regard and myvaporstore is a good one as well.

I believe Halo juices are a mixture of VG and PG. I bought it becuase it is made in USA and has really good reviews. Im not sure how it compares pricewise its 25 bucks for a 30ml bottle and you get a 10ml sample free and free shipping. As of now I am sticking with them. They only have 7 flavors though all tobacco or menthol 1 vanilla cigar i think. I personally dont care to even try anything sweet or fruity so that works for me.

I use an M401 as well, but I'm using the blue foam cart mod. It works wonders for wicking and vapor production for me.

The blue foam also helps the M401 use practically all of the juice in the cart.

Where can i get blue foam?

Actually if you add VG to any juice it will produce more vapor.
As far as wicking thats another story..

In my experience, Dekang seems to make my atomizers last longer. That's about all I can say.

You can get it from a pet store, in the aquarium supplies area. I couldn't find it in my area, so I just ordered it from http://strictlyejuice.com/ for 75 cents. They're pre-cut for 510 and 901 carts, so you can just stuff em' in.

I find the 20ml bottles last about twice as long as the 10ml bottles

Would those work for m401/402 carts?

I bought fluval from the pet store for my 401 (on advice from another member) and it is easy to insert and uses every drop. 1 box will probably last me a lifetime.

Looking forward to receiving my first order from Halo. The comments on both the clean, pure taste and the fact that it seems to last longer than others is intriguing.

As to the blue foam, I love it, but suggest that you run it through the dishwasher light cycle with no soap prior to use. There is a film and smell on it when it is new, and while some folks don't notice the smell/taste the film can present its own problems, including burning on your attys (as reported by others, I couldn't get past the smell and feel, so didn't use it before cleaning). If you don't have a dishwasher then rinse well with very hot water and don't use any soap (I originally tried to clean with soap, and then couldn't get that smell out until I hit upon the dishwasher idea).
