I've been looking at a lot of atomisers and wondering why the 510..
a. gets so much vapour
b. tastes good for 3-4 drags then tastes like burnt plastic.
c. the attys heat up SO much
d. any flavour used on a 510 atty lasts forever it seems. not in a good way. i used a coconut flavour that i hated today, and put my "super mint" flavour in, even dripped on it and topped off the cart - it tasted like a cooling (mint) coconut nastiness. i couldnt get it out. i even washed it out as much as i could (without cleaning it, which would take 24-48 hours to dry)
i SOLVED THE PROBLEM.
You know that fiberglass/polyester/etc filling under the atty? YOU DONT NEED IT. that's there to give you a little more vapour by essentially having fiberfill "under" the atty as well, or so it seems. i devised a super awesome way to get this out without ruining your atty!
(i will make a video later, i don't have any attys with the fiber stuff still in them currently)
take a paper clip, and curl out the end to make a poker. The tip of this, about 1mm down.. Bend so that it is at a 80 degree angle (slightly hooked in, like a fishing hook)
put this down underneath the coil, and "hook" as much "fiberglass" as possible. take a pair of small, needlenose pliers and pull out the "fiberglass" it will come out with ease. do this until you cannot see any more fiber in there (2-4 times should do it)
then, clean as you would normally (i use 50% rubbing alc and hot water)
i did this because i accidently pulled out some of the fill under one of my attys 2 days ago, so i just pulled it all out because it was burning. that atty just dried and it produces
MORE VAPOUR - while it seems like more liquid around the atty would = more vapour, the "fiberglass" seemed to drown the atty.. hence that *bubbly* noise you tend to get w/ the 510 sometimes.
Better taste - i've yet to experience ANY burnt or chemical taste from my 510, and flavours seems to shine through better than before!
less "retention" - if i switch carts, the old flavour isnt stuck there for half my new cart.. it goes away in 1-2 puffs. nice!
Less heat - the atty seems to take another 1-2 primer puffs than normal, but i can chain vape much longer (especially w/ no bad taste) before it begins to heat up to the point where it hurts to hold it over the atty area.
less effort needed to drag: there seems to be more air flow around the atty, and i can take lighter draws and get the same amount of vapour than before.
dripping is a bit less effective, i would imagine.. but for people using stock carts, this is awesome! i can't think of any other atty that uses a "polyfill/whatever" under the atty either.
i will make a vid once i get my webcam working (psh.. sure...) or take pics next time i do the "operation"
hope this helps anyone with the 510 harshness problem!
