need help.

Equipment.
2 smoke liberation batteries
2 totally wicked atomizers
1 broken smoke liberation atomizer
Regular pen style tip.
Johnson creek smoke juice sample kit (read some where they cause atomizers to fail?)
red bull and strawberry vapornine juice

Ok sorry about repetitiveness (posted in another section) but i need some ideas and suggestions.
I got the new atomizers yesterday and poured some juice in it. Seemed fine for a few hours and than got a plastic taste. tryed the second one, same thing the next day. The only way i get rid of the taste is to fill it with a lot of liquid and i dont know if thats helping. Any one have any tips that i can use?
Also what kinds of material i can use in the tip because im running out of the sample cloth from the old tips they had (maybe everyday household items bla bla)

thanks

The plastic taste comes from drying out. You need t keep the cart moist. As for dripping on the atomizer, how much are you putting on it. I don't drip, but almost everyone I see here recommends only 2-3 drops at most.

The debate is over whether it shortens the atomizer life........

Sorry DR1, your description threw me, I read your post earlier and couldn't figure out what you were doing. I've never heard of anyone "Pouring juice into the atomizer"

i dont pour into the atomizer, i drip one into there and then soak up the polyester

See the above bit confused me, and I bet a lot of other folks read it and couldn't answer you.

From what I understand you are topping off the wick/filler in the cart.. Is this correct? If so it will take more than 1 drop probably more like 3 or 4 drops. The taste may be from the wick/filler threads falling into the bottom of the atomizer. You can see them clearly with a blacklight if this is the case. You could boil or pick out the wick/filler in the atomizer if you can see them with a pair of tweezers. Now if you prefer dripping then you would only need to use the mouthpiece and can do away with the wick/filler and place 1 or 2 drops into the atomizer. Finally if you prefer, you can use a needle and syringe to fill your carts. My penstyle takes about 1ml of liquid to fill it.

If you dont have extra wick/filler you can buy the stuff for fish tanks at petsmart if you have one where you are. I use the fluval filler squares and cut to fit the cart.

Hope this helps some.

Yeah, im going to buy some polyester from micheals and see if that works than probably boil the atomizers every couple of weeks.

What do you mean by the fish tank stuff can you give me a link?
