juice too thick for my carto or what?

[jmoney402]

just got boba's bounty in the mail. dripped it in carto and filled up tank and when i try and vape it it feels like its suction closed or something no vapor at all, not even any air coming through.

please help, been really excited to vape this and it wont work

I am not experienced enough to really be offering advice but I do know that sometimes you get a dud carto in a box. It's happened to me and no matter what I did to try to fix it, in the end I just had to throw it away and get a new one.

Could be flooded/clogged, have you tried blowing into it while holding a paper towel over the connection side?

You could thin it with a tiny bit of distilled water or pure grain alcohol, but I would say avoid that if you can.

Boba's Bounty is 100% vg, so it's thick and can gunk things up. I don't vape that ratio, so I'm curious to read how people deal with it. I know it can be thinned with distilled water, but wouldn't that mute the flavor?

ETA: I know PBusardo vapes it a lot, maybe in this video he will have some tips (I haven't watched it yet)

i appreciate the input. i actually did watch that video, he commented on briefly. i just decided to put it in my vivi nova tank, it works fine out of that, cant wait to get more of them. only have 2 but prefer them over my carto tanks(which i bought 6 of before trying the novas)

LOL the best thing about his reviews is that woman screaming "Can I taste yo juice!?"

I love 100% VG juice and that is what I started with in cartos. When I switched to tanks however, I had to switch gears a lot. Some juice im finding will just not flow for me at all. I've just ordered a bottom feeding mod to hopefully rectify that issue, while keeping my provari and tanks for thinner juices. I WANT IT ALL DARNIT!

I was having a similar problem with thick 100% VG a couple of weeks ago. I was getting minimal air flow and no vapor. I went to a triple-punched LR cartomizer and it worked for me.

same issue here...i couldn't even prime the carto the juice was so thick it just stood on top of the filling, the filling wouldn't absorb it.
why not use distilled water or alcohol? i've heard this works well and adds vapor? i've heard even vodka works well...

I don't think DW or PGA will add vapor. PGA will add some throat hit, but I think DW is quite inert except thinning the liquid (and from what I've read a little can go a long way).

You may need to add a drop or two if distilled water or pga just to get it to wick better. Lots on here use the nova without problems.

 

[zapped]

Add more holes to the carto.Thicker vg juices need more holes to wick properly.

As to Bobas in a clearo...you might try the above.

I doubt youre getting anywhere near an accurate flavor with that setup. Ben the owner of AVE has ackowledged that he hasnt tested his flavors in newer juice delivery devices like a ViVi Nova. Ive found that they will wick okay but mute the flavor of all my Alien Visions juices when compared against a properly set up and aspirated carto tank.

I use Boba's in a Kanger T3 Bottom Coil and a Ce3 both from Smokeless image. Dont have issues with either

I find no problems adding water to hundo vg. Really
Doesn't kill the flavor for me. With a new carto best way to prime it up I have found is a few drips of water to start wetting and wicking.
You can easily dilute 100 vg 10% if needed. Start with 3 and work up. If its too thick youll have a hard time getting it into carto. I imagine bobas is very thick, never tried it. You just need to find the sweet spot for your device.
