I ordered one Joye 306 some time ago to get my order above the limit to receive free shipping from VaporKings. It has sat alone and unused until yesterday when I slapped it on my Grand and was pleasantly surprised. Flames on pretty good and made it through today in like fashion. I am considering buying more but hoped to hear from fellow REOnauts who have more experience with this atty. Anyone?:)

Hi Roger,

I used them for about 6 months -- I was so happy they didn't get all gunked up by my VG juices like a cartos did. Once you get that primer out, it delivers good taste and vapor. I had some that lasted 2 months or more... but found that with age, even with cleaning, the draw would get a bit tighter... other than that, it's a good atty with a good ROI!

vape Happy my friend :wub:

Yep, was my "first" 306, and the only 2 things I didn't like were the amount of wicking material (burns fairly easy if your not careful), and the "tighter draw" than I like. I did drill one of the side air intake holes with a 1/32nd" drill bit and it made them more enjoyable. I dewicked also to alleviate the "burnt wick" issues I was having as well... Lets just say I have a few in the stash for "hard times" :2cool:

I've had good and bad luck with the joye 306's. They can go from decent to the shi** and that can be right out of the box. If you like a tight draw even after drilling out both air holes you might like them. I've found about 1/3 of them are junk right out of the box. Too tight. Have to draw so hard it feels like my teeth are gonna popnouta my head. I don't mean to be totally negative but that's my experience with them. I've had virtually complete good luck with cisco's

I had pretty good luck with them but I just am not a 306 guy. I would have taken the Joye 1.5Ω 510 over them any day.

For me they just tightened up too quick even with a good cleaning. I could get much more longevity out of the 510 for some reason.

But the VK bulk is a screaming deal.

Oh, I remember my other gripe now ..... (been a while) .....
The diameter of them didn't seem very consistent ..... My cannon drip tip wouldn't even go down half way on some of them :(
