so i had some problems with two atomizers...(previous post), where they weren't vaping properly, i figure it was the carts

now i changed them ( atty ) and after about 1 hr, no vapour

took it out, put a few drops on the mesh, then kapow... vaping again

1 hour later, same problem

is this normal? or bad batch of attys again

the cart still has a lot of moisture in it btw, tried not sending it all the way down as well

i use a M401

ok this is crap now.......

i am on my second new atomizer in 24hrs.....
the first one i spoke about earlier is producing no vapour now....

i soaked it in vodka, then rinsed in hot water as well ( saw a cleaning method like that on this forum ) blew it out, allowed to dry, put 2 drops... hardly any vapour.... could it be the batteries causing this?

After cleaning my M401 attys like that, I put a few more drops than 2 & let it sink in. They're VERY dry after cleaning, some times you have to give it a few drops, put the cart in & give it 5 minutes or so to get good & wet.

I'm new but that's what works for me. I use the carts but drip pretty frequently on the atty also and haven't flooded one yet.

It could be the batteries, but try getting the atty wetter first.

Yeah they need more drops than usual to kick back in. I never liked the standard stuffing in m401 carts it dries out on me as well. When at home I'd try to use a contact lense case, shot glass or anything similar to put some drops in and dip the very top of the wick in it. Take out the inner cart and use just the mouthpiece. You might not go back to carts after you try this. Out and about I usually hold the cig horizontally drip one drop on one side of the wick and another on the opposite side. Lasts about six good puffs.
