Hi All!

I'm still somewhat of a noob at this. I quit smoking a lil over 6 months ago and have been vaping since. Started out with the 510 kit and now I've been vaping with the LR atty and eGo battery for around 4 months now and I absolutely love it! But there's a catch, within the last month or so I've been having to buy a new atty once a week at a minimum, sometimes more. I'm not doing anything different than when I first started. They vape great for the first 5 days, then pop goes the weasel. Where as they used to last at least a month. Is anyone else having this problem? Also, i dont use the carts, i drip, if that helps. Thanks in advance :)

What's the exact atty you are using? Do you have a link to it? The model or listed resistance might be helpful to someone who knows how low you should or shouldn't go.

Are you buying them in the same place and they look the same?
Anything different about the way you are using them?
Are your connections clean and shiny?

LR's can do that but you can help your case a lot by having a few - three or more even - going at a time. Perhaps put different flavors in them (but not necessary) so you're putting it down and letting it cool off a bit. Also load up as soon as you detect a loss of flavor because if you continue past that - you'll first get no taste then the burnt taste and soon the atty will die. Also some soaking in 151 vodka for about 15minutes helps alot.
