LR 306 Longevity?

[designinme]

I have heard some great things about ikenvape atty's. I recently acquired a Reo Grand unit, and I dropped in an 18650 battery and I was pretty impressed with the taste/flavor/warmth with a LR 510.

My question is, what kind of longevity are people experiencing with the 306 LR atty's from Ikenvape? I know that it depends on usage, experience, and keeping that atty pretty wet. I am pretty experienced with vaping, so I am curious what I should expect?

Right now I am getting about 10 days out of a LR 510 Joye. Three weeks being the absolute max, but honestly, I think that has only happened once.. and usually by then the vapor production sucks and it's well on it's way out anyway.

I also noticed that if I use dark juices.. my atty's don't last as long? Anyone else notice this? OR could it be just my supplier?

Thanks!

I'd swear they're made of some previously undiscovered secret alloy from space aliens or something. Let's just put it this way. I had 2 that I had been rotating between since November of last year. They still haven't died, I just wanted to buy the new ones that Isaac just released, so I set them aside. I am still on my first one of the new batch and I bought these when he first released them 3-4 weeks ago.

YMMV, obviously, but I run about the thickest VG known to man (Vaporstation's) if that helps.

I've ordered a total of seven, and am on my second one. The first one kind of fell apart when I went to clean it (the bridge mesh came off) but the second one is going super strong, 10 days now... using 50/50 PG/VG liquid and it still hits like the first time I used it.

You can still drip with it even though the bridge is gone...

306s are where its at for me... especially IKVs. I like the HV 306s at 6v. All of their attys are made from higher-quality materials and people are getting nice, long lives out of them. Keep the LR wet, no dry burns, etc. I've heard of people getting up to a month or two out of them...

It felt weird in the back of my throat after I removed the bridge from it. May have been a placebo effect... but still, I didn't like it lol.

I haven't had one die a natural death yet. I've accidentally destroyed a couple of them.

Dropping a heavy mod is tough on any atomizer.

I've had LR 306s which lasted at least a month though, when not abused.

I too have noticed a decrease in performance when used with heavy juice.
