i don't have any way to meter the battery .. what is that thig you use to do it? what is it called and do you know where i can get one?
Can't remember who it is, but someone's signature that goes something like "A vaper without a multi-meter is like a doctor without a stethoscope". A muti-meter is required equipment for anything by the most casual vaper IMHO. Helps you keep tabs on your
batteries, chargers, connections, atties, etc. You'll have a MUCH better idea what's up when anything is not performing as expected. The number of ohms is the resistance to current pushing through the attie. The lower the number, the more current may flow through and (assuming your battery is up for it) the more power (read: heat & vapor) you'll get from it. The exact definition of LR (low resistance) versus SR (standard resistance) is a bit ambiguous, but, yeah, once you hit about 2 ohms, you are in LR territory for a 3.7v device.
Sounds like its flooded.
These fine people can help you I bet.
Another good possibility. If they are both behaving the same, it could also be you are flooding them. Does it gurgle when you draw, get rather warm, and yet have very little vapor? Sometimes (depending on nic/alcohol content) it could still be harsh on the throat even without the vapor in this case. Blow it out really well (from the end you drip into) into a tissue, add just two drops right on the bridge, wait a few seconds and try again.
