Joye 510 Std. Atties -- I'm through with these.

[Whistle_Pig]

I think this is very odd, still. My first 3 510 atties lasted months. Now, they've become a hit'n'miss proposition, with the emphasis on the miss.

Last month, I ordered a 5-pack. Checked each one when they arrive on Sat, 22nd, for DOA, and all were functional. The first one I used lasted 8 days, dying on the 30th. My DMM says it's resistance is 17Kohms. Of the next three, I've lost track of which lasted how long, but 1 lasted less then 24 hours before heat and vape output nosedived (that one I started using last night). The other two I used between the 30th and yesterday (Feb 9th). Of those 3, one has a resistance of ~500Kohms. The other 2 are at 2.1, so might be salvageable. I haven't started on the 5th one yet.

I use only eGo batts. I've been using only vendor-supplied juices. I didn't dry-burn any of these. I drip.

I will never buy another Joye std. 510 atty, unless there's some huge news about them suddenly producing a fantastic, reliable, consistent product.

ETA: Well, 1 atty resurrected. I guess it was just hopelessly clogged. Never had that happen that quickly before.

hmmm i hope you're wrong about that as joye reg 510's listed at 2.2 Ohms are my favorite (until i get used to HV attys).
I just got 10 of em over the last week, and haven't blown one yet. I use an eGo, a Phidias, a Provari, and a Darwin... the last two are VV and i have gone up as high as 4.2volts without problem... but i am a delicate vaper... what i mean is i don't vape the heck out of them each time... not saying you do, but i don't like a harsh vape so i have to make sure i have just the right amount of drops in there.
I guess if there is not enough there is the chance of frying them...

these were on sale, DFWvapor.com "forum special" $5.00 a piece. shipping is $6. so i got a bunch.

I've never had a problem with genuine Joye 510 atty's.
Are these from the same vendor as the original one's you got that worked well?

There are alot of knock off's from different companies and some just don't vape well or hold up. I've gotten a hold of a couple and they died in 1-2 weeks.

 

[Whistle_Pig]

The first ones I got that worked well were from ecigsupply and Cignot. These were all from ecigsupply. Real Joye, AFAIK.

I've also purchased quite a few of mine from cignot and they've been great, so perhaps you may want to stay with them since you had no problems with them( genuine joye's)
I can't say on ecigsupply 510's as I've never bought one from them( only a 901)

I've also gotten 510's from Rocky Mountain Vapor and Litecigusa and never had a problem ( also genuine joye)

There's always a chance to get a dud every once in awhile but I've honestly only had 1 in all the time I've been buying.
(resistance was 110.5 and wouldn't fire on my ego lol)
Most last me at the very least a month, most 2-3 month's on average. I vape heavy, 4-6 ml's a day of 100% VG to give you an idea of how much use these get.

The only times I've had issue's is when I roamed from my normal suppliers and got knock-offs that died in a week : (

 

[Whistle_Pig]

The ones from ecig supply are Joye. Don't think it matters what supplier I get 'em from. I've had genuine Joye from 5 places. I can only conclude that there's something I do that makes a difference. But lots of folks drip with eGos, so I don't know what it might be. Once I'm using a 3.7 mod, I won't care so much, but until then, I'd like to not have to throw money at more 510 stuff.

It's official. All 5 are bad in some way.
