I have not personally tried nicotine salts myself, however I have read positive reviews on getting that "feeling" you are looking for in regards to vaping. Now keep in mind, nicotine salts are typically used in pod type systems BUT can be used in a non sub-ohm tank with an atomizer higher then 1.0. I'm not sure if the AIO has higher atomizers I, personally have an AIO, and I myself seemed unsatisfied with vaping with that particular device. I am a seasoned vaporer as I have been vaping for 7 years but maybe see if you can get higher ohm atomizers for it and give nicotine salts a try.
Not getting the nicotine...?

Similar to analogs, when I first started vaping, I got a "nic buzz" and even posted about it in this forum (it was with a Blu 
). I focus on the flavor and inhale now and don't worry about it. I still get a certain "craving satisfaction" like when I first wake up in the morning and thats good enough for me.

If regular nic alone isn't doing "it" for you try a mixture of regular nic, WTA, and Salts. That is what I had to do for the wife.
Essentially up to 6mg nic divide your "dose" by 2 and get half the nic from freebase (regular) nic and half from WTA. For any amount over 6mg handle the first 6 as above but get the rest from salts. So if you want 12mg you would want 3 from freebase, 3 from WTA, and 6 from Salts. This provides a good but not overwhelming TH, and pretty much all forms of nicotine and the rest of the alkaloids. If TH is too much you could drop to 2mg freebase, 2 WTA and the rest Salts.

Being able to stop smoking without cravings shows that you are getting the nicotine. 24mg juice was plenty enough for me to give up the smokes. As others said, cigarettes companies use additives to free base the nicotine and give you the rush and a feeling of satisfaction. Vaping is more like taking nicotine tablets. You get the nic, but not the sense of immediate satisfaction that smoking provides. What you get from vaping is the nicotine replacement along with the hand to mouth simulation of smoking and that's really what the addiction is all about. Smoking is a relaxing activity.

An interesting read, but I wish they had published the amount of nic in mg, not %. % of what? Smoke volume? The weight of tobacco burned to that point?
