Hy everybody. I'm new here and very need you advice.

I have my TW Titan 510 for a week. I can't really say is it was all time or no... so here is my problem:
I can normally smoke my ecig only when dripping on the atomizer or when overfill my cartridge. In other words I enjoy my smoking only wher atomizer have liquid on it. If liquid in the cartridge - I don't feel it.
If I refill my cartidge and make it full I can puff only 3-5 times. Then I feel much less taste and got smaller fog. If I wait for a minute I can also make 1 good puff without taste dissapearing. My cartridge foam is still all in liquid but I can't normally smoke unlill I drip a few drops into the atomizer. I just don't feel the taste. When i drip some drops into the atomizer I can make about 30 really nice puffs. And then I need to drip again to feel something. But my cartrigde is still filled and this liquid in the foam just not using by the ecig.

Is it normal? I heard 1 cartridge is like 20 cigarets but I don't feel even 1.

sorry for my English :)

Either the "foam" is pushed down too far, or it is packed in too tight. If it's low, pull it up. If that's not it, pull it out and cut a little bit off then pull it apart to make it less dense/tight but so that it still fills the space.

P.S. There are better things to use than the stock filler. This forum has many options and ideas:

If you are/were a very heavy smoker, the filler material can't "wick" the liquid quickly enough to the atomizer for you. It can't keep up with you. This is why I don't use filler, I just "drip". You can modify a cartridge so it looks like an empty tube, and does not need to be removed when you drip. I find this to be a very convenient way to use my 510 and my 901 atomizers.

If you click on my signature (the picture below), there is a more detailed guide to doing this.

Also, your English is very good. It is much better than my Russian. :D You are in the right place to find help. If you have any more problems, you only need to ask!

Justone, your english is certainly good enough! With all the slang terms we use for ecigs, you are doing just fine. What you are describing is exactly what many of us 510 users find. I too was topping off every 5 or 6 hits with 36 mg juice, or just dripping directly on the atty.

Blue foam has a great reputation here, but I personally use the zero-filler mod (ZFM), which uses a drinking straw and the cart cap, which you cut into a plug with an xacto knife. Its an auto-drip mod. I get 50-60 hits before needing to refill the cart, and it allows the atty to work properly all the time. Because of that, I only need 12-14 mg juice most of the time now, rather than 36 mg. Not saying this will be the same for you, but a properly working atty/cart can make what you vape much more efficient.

Good luck!
