IMO, the filter mods will not help with your problem. I think the mesh that surrounds the coil is too dense to wick the juice well enough. Dripping solves the problem because it pretty much wets the coil directly.

After working for a while with the Stick, I gotta agree with tmbrown on this. The screen mod I was using ended up flooding the atty too often. I ordered some non-Janty attys, and the difference is night and day. I'm back to using straight polyfil the wicking is so good and consistant. I've moved the exact same cart, without alteration, between the Janty and non-Janty attys as a test, and there is something definitely worng with Janty ones. Is this a known issue? Other than tmbrown's comments, I haven't been able to dig up any information on the subject.

BTW - on another note, I am curious to know if the USB charging port on the v3 acts as a true passthrough while connected? Again, I searched around a bit, but couldn't find any info. (Maybe I'm just not a good forum searcher! :p)

Oh, and Happy Easter everyone! :D

I would like Janty to investigate this atomizer performance question (I won't call it an issue or problem yet, I've only seen sporadic reports of this in here and in other forums). IMO, the Janty atty currently being sold is way too fussy about wicking. I suspect the metal mesh of the atomizer is either too fine and acting like some kind of filter, preventing the liquid from getting to the coil, or it's fine enough to clog very quickly (i.e., less than a day's worth of vaping).

I think it just acts as a battery charger, I don't think it passes the voltage directly from the power supply to the atty. You get the full charge voltage of the battery, but not the full voltage of the power supply.

I do have the eGo and I did buy/try 2 LR attys and my experience was informative. First I should say I sold one of the two attys after 2 hours of vaping cause it was too intense for me....I learned I did'nt like HV. It did what you have heard. Lots of vapor big TH. I did clean the atty before juicing it but the TH were very harsh...too harsh for me. It does drain the battery faster I noticed. Though I disliked it...if you want a cheap HV experience then I say you need to check it out before buying a HV device.

Just an observation...

I have noticed with the LR atty... just as one would with a HV device.... that not all liquids respond well to the increase in power. Some love it.. some can get quite harsh.

Also... I have noticed that my LR atties tend to "mellow" just a little bit with age.. as they become "gunked".

Thanks Scottbee, good to know. You always have helpful info. Unfortunately I traded mine for 2 new joye 510 attys in the classified section. I vape Atomic Cinnacide 20%VG and 80%PG also all PG Captain Morgan"s Rum and they both seemed really harsh. The person who I traded with says they LOVED it so I'm thinking its me!:(

Hey guys,

As the headline suggests, i raise the question "Why use Janty atomizers?"

Well, there are alot of reasons. The simplest answer is, quality. Our factory has standards, and unlike other factories in the very same area, we do not use the cheapest materials in order to gain a profit.

For instance, Janty atomizers are tuned for Janty batteries and Janty accessories and liquids (due to density of the liquids we provide for our atomizers). Using Janty atomizers with other then Janty batteries or accessories such as passthroughs or other then Janty liquids, could (and in alot of cases will) damage the Janty quality atomizer.

Our products are quality checked and produced to the highest standards. Other products coming from Chinese factories do not meet the JANTY production standards. Combining others manufacturers products with our products will have a negative effect on the performance of our Janty products.

We just thought you should beware of this - those of you that are long time Janty customers, using only Janty gear knows what we are talking about - since it is infact rare we ever have a complaint from you guys :)

- anyways just posted this up on jantyworld, so i thought id post it here too! Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend! :D

Hey

Well Janty has LR attys enroute to the shops, so no worries there. We spent alot of time trying to perfect these in terms of giving more of a kick, but not wanting them to be too much. So when people say they give you a vape similar to 5-6 volt, i dont think its all true.

Id say it gives you something similar to 4.5'ish - and in any regards i think theyre great!

And in most cases, ill have to say that if an atomizer gives you anything but a silky smooth vape, then its time to clean it - all my atomizers always gives me a silky -- strong - but silky vape. If they dont, i rinse them as per the manual, and theyre fine again!

Maybe this is why with the hundreds of complaints about http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/ecigarette-technical-issues/66080-burnt-taste-all-my-attys-38.htm none that I've seen have come from Janty.

Testing has shown the bad attys on the market are being manufactured by Joye using an inferior nickle mesh material that emits a foul taste and crumbles when it gets hot. It's upsetting that other suppliers aren't putting pressure on Joye to manufacture a better, more consistent product. I'm glad to hear that Janty is!

Sounds like it wont work right with your array of juices Antisocial its not the correct juice for the battery.
I agree Hammond, there is no special tuning incorporated in a atomizer. It is just the same thing in all atomizers, some with inferior parts some with better, but all are designed the same way, Ceramic, Nichrome coil, bridge, Mesh, and pcb but there is no adjustment I can see other then the resistance on the coil from length and diameter to give you different OHMs.
I have to laugh at the claim that an atomizer can be tuned for use with a specific battery, accessory and liquid.:rolleyes:
