Noob - Joye 510-T Issue

[jbones733]

ok, got the joy 510-T atty, tanks carts, using standard manual joye 510 batteries

thing works great right away, but then after a little use, it works like crap, no throat hit, less vapor, etc, etc , so i switched atty's and it worked awesome again, for a few hours now poof same thing, i have to suck on it for 10 seconds to get anything throat hit gone, etc, etc

what can i be doing wrong ?


thanks in advance, i havent had an analog in 3 days, longest stretch in years, and love vaping when it works, just frustrating that this happens

You are right where I was about three weeks ago. Endlessly cleaning ego-t atty's to try and get them back to how they were when new. In the end, after disassembling one atty to try and replace the wick, I found I had been sold cheap knock offs filled with fibre instead of the proper Joye units with the mesh inside which can be cleaned. Since replacing that rubbish with genuine kit I have had no problems and both me and my wife are loving vaping. Bottom line is you are doing the right thing, hang in there and persevere, do not give up. If your current PV isn't working for you get something else. Keep trying until you find your happy place. It is possible, I've done it and it is worth all the hassle in the end I promise! Good luck!

A few hours is not long enough for thee to be serious gunk build up on your attys, so my next thought would be your attys are flooding, a notorious problem for tanks. Try blowing them out and keep an eye on your tank see if it seems to be draining when you are not vaping, or if there is wetness around the connection to the battery.

thanks guys

i have some boge cartomizers coming any day now, so will see if that is different, the atty is wet where it screws into the battery, is that the problem ???


another question, i seem to get an hour tops out of a manual joye 51- standard battery when using the tanks, i know the battery life is short but is that normal ???

i am rotating 3-4 batteries constantly like every hour

Yep sounds like your atty is flooding. Take the tank off remove the atomizer and hold a tissue over the threaded end while you blow through the top, move the tissue to change air flow a few times then wipe up any wetness and put it back together, it should work fine.

Also it is very common for a 510 battery to only last an hour for a heavy vaper. I have one standard 510 battery that my wife uses when she goes out. I can vape it dead in about 45 minutes. But I only get about 4 hours out of a 750mAh battery. Thank goodness for pass-throughs.
