first week and i'm off the ciggs after 37 years.

i have so many questions but i'll start one at a time. i think i might be frying the attt's by burning too low amount of juice. .it's an ego with standard 510's. when should i add more juice?. i'm dripping so i always start with three drops which i assume to be close to 0ne ciggie. ( i'm getting there with the question, i'm just taking the long way).
is it the "sizzle" or the gurgle that counts?
i'm vaping pretty much continuesly through out the day and used maybe 3 ml of the first week but 2 joye atty's 510's are weak.

Welcome to ECF. It's the taste. Gurgle means you have too much liquid. 3 drop on a standard 510 atty should net you around 10 -12 draws at 6 secs each (this is a rough estimate and your results may vary). When the atty is getting dry you will notice a difference in taste and vapor will feel "Dryer". One more hit and you will know what a wet mop tastes like:). Chain vaping and running an atty too hot is a killer for them. If it is too hot to hold your finger against then back off a little. Hope this helps

Good question. I'm vaping my very first cartridge right now and I also want to make sure I'm not running the atty too dry. It's starting to taste a bit dryer but still getting good vapor out of it at the moment. I know you're referring to dripping, but I'm also trying to discern if there's any sounds or other cues that it's time to refill.

A few hits ago I was getting a good sizzle sound after the first second or two of having the button pressed. Now it stays pretty quiet. I would imagine this means less fluid is getting vaporized.
