Okay, it's got to have something to do with my slight subtle mods and primer flushing methods... because I'm using an authentic Joye 510 atty and battery. I get loads of vapor and throat hit. In fact, I just accidentally blew vapor towards the computer monitor and can't see a damn thing! I only get JC's PG juice recipes, and I don't do ANY custom mixing with them (they're already premium as it is).
So... it must be the following "little" things I'm doing that makes the difference...
- Using premium poly-fil to make cart filler. very small, very thin, and loose. not stuffing it, but making actual cylinders with it and triming squarely to fit. using lighter to quickly burn flash the loose fibers for just a fraction of a second. then I'm poking a hole with a small cd drive eject pin into the center of the filler to prevent syphoning effects.
- I never fill the cart up with juice first before inserting the filler. I always insert the filler, THEN drop the juice in (15 to 18 drops on a fresh filler), I don't mind taking the time for a quality vape. Apparently it pays off. I use to replace the filler every 5 days, but now I'm getting lazy and only do it every weekend, which doesn't seem to make a difference either.
- I hate those stupid little white wicks under the bridge they have now! So I remove them before I ever fire up the atty the first time. Only takes 2 strokes and WOCKUP, it's outta there!
- I blow the primer out from the atty end, NOT from the battery connector end. Then I flush it some more with either PG or e-liquid (about 8 drops). I put the atty in a KR808 condom cap, I drown it with the PG or e-liquid, let it sit for a minute, drain, then blow it out from the atty end. Dry off the outside of the atty, drip 1 drop of e-juice into it again, and insert a cart.
not done yet... LOL
- while waiting for the atty and cart to get friendly (juice absorption and distribution), and IF, and only IF, it's a brand new cart, I pull out the mouth piece end cap with that same cd drive eject pin I mentioned earlier (I bent a tiny 45 degree hook on one end of the pin). Why do I do this? Because I want to remove the vapor condensation disc that's behind it, which that hook does the trick. After removing the disc, I put the end cap back on, just snaps into place. What's the reason for this? Preference mostly. I'm picky about my air flow because I like to direct-lung inhale sometimes. This optimizes the air flow for that purpose, plus it increases the internal air pressure during a draw to help suck the juice out of the cart faster. Which in turn helps the atty to keep up with my demands. I'm a forceful little ........ ain't I? Hee Hee.
Then I fire my baby up and slip into vaping heaven. It's an art really. It really really is.
Also, I never drain the atty dry overnight, I always keep it wet. In fact, I never clean any atty anymore. Whenever I run across a trouble maker juice (usually VG), I run a cinder burn on the atty (glow and blow), and it only takes a few seconds to do that. Normally does the trick and rises life again. If that doesn't work, then I put it on my stationary HV mod and do it again. If that doesn't work, then I remove the atty bridge and turn it into a dripping machine and sqeeze another month's use out of it on my HV setup.
My average atty life span is roughly 2 months, but that's on average. I had a mystery atty that lasted around 9 months last year. [Rest In Peace Little One, I miss you.]
And that's how you master the Joye 510 and get great vapes on JC juice, or any other juice for that matter. User mileage may vary.
I do have a few words of caution though. There is an evil atty I have discovered! Yes, it's very WICKED! It will make you sick and tired, and drains your wallet without noticing it at first. It disguises itself as a 510 and it's diabolical plan is to steal the 510 legend and gain popularity. Yes! It's very WICKED indeed... it's the Gold TECC Titan 510 MP atty's from Totally Wicked! [gasp] How dare it try to imitate the legendary master with it's inferior quality! But beware Mr. Titan, for I can DEFEAT you! I've got your number! [2.82 ohms out of the box] You are no match to my skills and power! [5 volts, 2 amps, first cart, magically converts it into 2.4 ohms] Even my Joye 510 shorty batteries laugh at you after I beat the poor quality out of you! - Seriously though, you have to break those stupid things in before they start working right.
But anywhoo... I Love the JC Smoke Juice. PG Artic Menthol, Summer Peach, and JC Original.
