Need some advice about cartomizers

[Helzopro]

So I recently bought some cartomizers and am fairly new to vaping, I have 2 E Liquids, one is a Eggnog one which I got for free, and I also have a menthol one.

I seem to be having trouble with the menthol juice in my cartomizers, it just seems to burn out, so i've burned 4 cartomizers from that juice. I was wondering if a CE2 would perhaps be a better investment of my money seeing that i'm not having much luck with the original 510 cartomizers?

Hi Helzopro

Can you tell us what type of e-cig you are using & which cartomisers & where you got the menthol e-liquid from?

Also how are you initially filling your cartomisers & then keeping them topped up?

Hi I currently have a JoYe 510 and and was using Innokin Cartomisers. The E-Liquid was from paradise vape UK as it was recommended by a ECF user. I've tried 2 different ways of filling my cartomisers, Using the condom from the cartomiser to fill it up from the mouthpiece end, and the other is using the condom but filling it from the battery end. Done it twice with both methods but they burn up instantly. I just don't understand!

 

[Chrissie]

It's best to fill using the condom method by pushing the battery end into the condom half filled with e-liquid, then adding a few drops to the mouth piece end. The wadding inside needs to be nice & slushy & you need to keep it like that.

I forgot to add that I do add some drops to the mouth end, let it get all wet e.g I leave it for like a minute and move it around. But when I go to vape it justs burns?

Should be around 30 drops of liquid into the cart, if you are doing that and it still burns out then i can only imagine the battery is dodgy as you have burned 4 carts so i cannot imagine all 4 carts to be dodgy, or it might just be some dud liquid..very strange indeed.

Do you have a friend who has a e-cig that you can test out some of your parts on bit by bit?

 

[Helzopro]

I'm afraid not Rome.. It's quite aggravating really.. So could it be that one of my batteries is outputting too much current?

Where abouts in the Uk are you Helzopro?

Good chance there could be someone on AAE-C UK near you to help -
