Ok, first off I'd like to say, Yes I know I'm a dip-sh**... I washed my atty last night to get the menthol flavor out so I could see what my other flavors tasted like. I stood it up on a paper towel all night like someone said and put it back on this morning with a fresh cart. Well it won't vape now! I made sure it was completely dry and everything. I've been puffing on the stupid thing for 15min. and get nada damn thing!
What did I do wrong? BESIDES THE OBVIOUS!
So anyhoo, my dh and I have been vaping with 510 since Saturday, and for the most part we're doing really well. we started with 18mg. and found out very quickly that that ain't gonna work... have some 26mg coming! But I did notice that Sun. and Mon. I was pshyco biyotch! I was ripping throats and crapping down the holes ...... for no reason! I broke down and smoke 1/2 a cig on Monday, but couldn't finish it tastes so bad! Then just started using my moms 26mg with my 18mg mixed in... that was LOTS better... I'm sorta human again.
Then Tues. I smoked 3 gigs while drinking with a Gf. at that point I couldn't taste anything. (she has ordered her own 510!) I don't feel like a failure, but I do feel like I should have a lil more will power! I don't wanna smoke I have thought for the longest time that it's nasty, but I can't seem to help myself.
Any suggestions?

Hmm, when I clean my atty's they usually take awhile to start producing vapor again. It's like I have to break them in all over again.

Did you drip some liquid directly onto the atty bridge to prime it after you dried them?

Did you let them air dry or blow dry them? I've found that even if the wick is a little wet with water they'll hardly vape.

Did you get on your knees and pray?

Hope something helps.

If you use water it could take more than 2 days to dry, you have to connecte to the battery and inhale for a while until it gets fully dry

Umm... sorry... but I just don't feel the same way. Can we just be friends?



:D
Sorry AngusATAT, I think she was replying to me, I'm her mother and the one whose juice she's been using. ;-)

Doing a few analogs is not being a failure, just think of all the analogs you've avoided. You're doing fine, but remember, I jump back. LOL

Don't beat your self up about having a few cigs. I went through half a pack of a friends cigs last night after months of no cigs along with many beers. We lost a horse last night in a totally freak accident so, yeah, I backslid big time. Today hasn't been much better but, I'll come around again. Least of my worries right now. :(

Stock up on some attys and you'll be set to go!
