If you don't align the cart correctly when you drip, you WILL melt the cart. 100% guarantee. So you must align it, like the guy said earlier.
It would be nice if you guys or someone could design a cart for the 510 that you do not have to align. That you can just stick in there, and not worry about it melting.
And this could probably be done rather easily.
But yes, you must align the cart properly. Mik, I am shocked that you don't know this.
This is not true. So please dont post things you believe to be true unless you have sufficient proof for this.
I have a mod here that can go from 0.2 volt up to 9 volt - i have tested this from 3.7 to 7.5 volt and i have NOT melted a cart, EVER.
Also, in my 7-8 months of
vaping ( rather intensely i must add ) i have NEVER melted a cart. Be it on 3.7, 5 or 6 volt. NEVER.
My entire family are vapers now - none of them have EVER melted a cart.
I spoke to Ethan from JantyUSA he has NEVER received ONE email about this problem.
So - you see, MY proof is pretty solid. This is NOT a general problem. And thats where it ends for me. We are not going to redesign an entire cartridge system based on something less than 3% of our users are experiencing ( and thats if i shoot the number high ).
I hope you understand that there is a difference between how people vape, - how often they vape, how little rest they give their atomizers, if they use carts, if they drip, if their atomizer is "safe" (meaning that they are not running it on 6 volt - or that it is well maintained, in the sense that it hasnt lost its resistance or been damaged in any other way where it will cause much higher heat than its supposed to.
All of the above factors in when something like a cartridge melts. Ofcourse making a V shaped cut will solve this - for you - but a V shaped cut will also mean that liquid can leak out of the cartridge much faster, and the very spot it will leak out ( to the sides ) means that there is a very increased risk of this leading to liquid getting in your mouth - or flooding your atomizer. So the V cut is NOT a fix for the 97% of our users that dont experience this problem; In fact it might even worsen their experience.
So please understand that while i am sorry this is your experience, it is not a problem that is "big" enough for us to try and solve right now. Its an oddity - and probably one that has to do with what kind of PV you have, and how you vape.
And when you use JANTY products, this problem should not happen - not at the voltage they are running, and not how they are designed. IF this happens ( and i know you will say it does on Janty products ) then it is still such a small percentage, that we can not fix it - we can only offer advice, - or try to solve it by studying why it might melt with you, but not for everyone else.
It is NEVER as simple as "I experience this, fix it by doing this" - trust me.
And dont take my long post here as a rant or as if im angry - im not, im just typing very fast as i just got home and i got alot of pressing matters to deal with, so i dont have time to word everything perfectly - i trust and hope you will see past that!
I do appreciate everyone taking time to catch my attention on this issue,and taking the time to post here though.
EDIT: And if you are only dripping, why not just cut 0.5 mm off the tip of the cartridge ? That way it never makes contact with anything, and since youre dripping you dont need it to. Thats a simple, but permanent fix right there.
