Kingpin Joye 510 Very Little Vapor

[lunaruss]

I am new to using e-cigs i purchased the Joye 510 Starter Kit from kingpincigs.com with the standard atomizers. I have read that the 510 has very good vapor but so far i am getting very little vapor out of them, if i use one of the 510 Cartomizers i am getting decent vapor but with the atomizer and cartridges i am still getting horrible vapor. Is this normal? Anyone have any suggestion?

If you have another atty, try that one and see if you get the same result. The only other thing I can suggest is rinse it out in some hot water, let it dry and try it again.

Yes it came with 2 atty's and they both seem to give the same result. Is there a difference between using the standard resistance atty's and low resistance atty's?

 

[MarvelSlasher]

you might have bum atty's happened to me a few times, or you just need to break it in sometimes it takes me a good 2 days of vaping to get the atty working fully.

I am a noob but...

- Is it a prefilled cart? Can you tell if it looks a bit dry? If so, try topping it off with just enough drops of ejuice to make it look moist but not a puddle. If the cart looks fine, try putting one drop of ejuice on the atomizer bridge. Does that help?

- Does your atomizer have a pointed bridge or a rounded bridge? I think there are two 510 atomizer manufacturers and the rounded ones may be better. (I could be wrong on this)

low resistance atty's will give you better vaper the only problem i have had with them is they tend to burn out on me faster.

I am starting to think i may have gotten bum atty's then because i have been using it for about 2 days now and am getting no better vapor then i was when i first got it. The carts that came with the package were prefilled and did seem to be wet, after i wasnt getting much vapor out of them i did add some more juice to it but it didnt seem to help at all. And they are the rounded coils from the looks of them.

I wouldn't use a LR atty with a 510. The LR attys need bigger batteries and even then they really decrease the battery life.
Try this with your attys and see if it helps at all:
Highping's Atty Resurrection Method
If that doesn't do the trick then you might just have a couple of bum attys like MarvelSlasher said. If that's the case, I would contact the vendor immediately and see if they can be replaced.

WomanOfHeart i tried the method you suggested but to no avail, i have gone ahead and emailed the company about the issue to see if i could get a replacement for the atty's. Thank you all for your help

I reckon they are not Joye 510's but lookalikes. Their web site describes them as "Joye style" and says "You can now choose have low resistance (2.2ohm) atomizers instead of standard (3.1ohm)." Standard Joye 510 atomizers are around 2.4 ohms (that's what I've measured them at, but some on here say as low as 2.1 ohms). That will partly explain the difference in performance.

BTW do they look anything like this inside with a metal disc around the bridge?

 

[lunaruss]

So you think i would have better luck if i got actual Joye 510 Atomoizers? And no there is not metal disc around the bridge at all if i look inside of mine.

This is what the inside of mine looks like, though the picture is fuzzy.

I hear LR attys are not recommend for standard batteries, however I've been using an LR atty for 3 weeks now with my standard 510 batt with no problems. Actually I only take 2 - 2.5 second hit with an LR, with a standard atty (2.5ish ohms) I'm hitting the 5 second mark. My batts are lasting twice as long when using the LR attys because I'm just not hitting them as much, which leads me to believe they might actually give my batts a longer lifespan. I dunno, could be wrong.

The disc one is not a Joye (I think its an SLB made atty). There are a few companies making copies though. Here is one that is a Joye 510 I've got (bought from Totally Wicked) and it looks a bit different.

Yes if the atty you have is 3.1 ohm copy then a genuine Joye 510 one will work better.

 

[lunaruss]

Is there any place you can recommend buying genuine Joye 510 atomizers?

Some of their other stuff is pricey but TW have a good deal on multipacks - 510 TITAN Electronic Cigarette 5 x Atomiser Multi Pack
