The REO works fine with the thick juices, but what atomizers are you guys using to be able to vape one all day? A freshly cleaned and dry burned Joye 510 standard resistance will clog up after 1ml. With a Joye 510 LR (1.7 Ohms) I might get 2ml through the atty before the draw is as tight as trying to suck a frosty through a straw. It's driving me nuts.

I'm willing to give that a shot when I get a chance to pick up some small bits but I really don't think it's the side holes that are the culprit. If I take the atomizer off, it's just as tight as it is when it's on and that opens up the big center hole for air flow, right?

I picked up a brand new set of Eastmall 510-LR atomizers to try out and they were clogged as soon as I PRIMED them. Completely unusable.

I'm getting really frustrated. Dripping won't clog them as fast. Cartomizers don't clog, either but the flavor is gone after 1-2 ml. Sure, I can go to dripping/cartos but then what's the point of a bottom feeder?

AAAAARRRRRRGGGGGHHHHH!!!!!

Most of us use the Cisco attys from avidvapers. But I have used the Joye and don't get the clogging problems you are getting...I thought it was bad that my 306's were getting clogged after a week. I hate to say it, but maybe your juice is an atty killer?

This is happening to me using Boba's Bounty and other VG juices that people seem to be able to vape for days without issue. After 1-2 ml on a cleaned atty I can barely get any air through. I'm just wondering what atomizers they're using to do that, cause I want me some of that.

Nope, can't be the Boba's...way too many folks using that. You said you usually drip. Are you maybe keeping the atty too wet?

I'm not really a dripper. Occasionally I do it for change in flavor or when sampling juices but up until I got the REO I used carts, tanks and cartos. Perhaps I'm keeping the atty too wet but if I squonk/drip less than I do I get dry hits (blech).

Just as an update, I picked up a 306LR. It vaped like a champ for about 12 hours and I started getting a scorched flavor within two hits of squonking or dripping. I pulled out the wick and the scorched flavor disappeared.

I can totally abuse this thing now. I can practically flood it and it still throws out tons of vapor. I can run it almost bone dry before I get a dry hit. 24 hours on one atty with super thick juices and I'm still rocking it. I think I've finally found a sweet spot.

:vapor:
