I've never been a fan of LR atty's. I use an eGo and find that LR atty's burn so hot that the liquid tastes burnt and unpleasant. I tried many types of liquid--same result
This is true for me as well.
And also the reason I don't like high voltage options either.

But I do use LR atomizers sometimes.
I have to pump the button a few times during the drag to keep it from running full steam though.

Doesn't pumping the button defeat the whole idea of a LR atty? I mean, wouldn't you have the same effect by simply using a regular 510 atty?

I find the method of inhalation varies with many variables as mentioned before.
So far I believe these include:

e-liquid composition
Atomizer quality, age
batteries ability to maintain consistent voltages, I guess a pass through would solve this?
How far the poly-fill is tucked in. I normally put mine 1mm below the top of the cartridge.
Dripping vs. no dripping
Topping off vs no topping
Voltage mods

The aforementioned points may effect the method in which you draw. Draw too hard after topping and I've had a mouthful of e-liquid. I'm sure there are more variables.
I'd say learning to properly hit your PV may take some trial and error. I normally find it most pleasant to fill my mouth with smoke, then inhale. That way I have an idea of the vapor before hand.

It defeats a good percentage of the purpose, but not all of it.
I can still get a lot more vapor using the LR atomizer, even pumping the battery.

How do I hit my PV? I place my PV on the floor, make a fist with my hand, and push my fist really hard and fast into the PV.

On a serious note, I myself observe the 4-5 second inhale technique. I currently only have auto batteries, so sometimes I do a quick primer puff before I drag, but I've found that it's really not necessary. It's become more of a useless habit. The first cartomizers I had were prefilled, and didn't produce much vapor or flavor at all. I was bummed until I ordered some blanks and juice from V4L. Flavor and vapor were noticeably improved. Just got a new flavor the other day, and now flavor/vapor is even better!
