OEM 510 attys vs After mkt attys

[JKBonin]

OK. I've been vaping for 2 weeks. Was a 2+ pack/day smoker. In 2 weeks I've smoked 2 packs total with my 510. None today and am really hoping I don't weaken and buy another pack.

To be sure I have no excuses, I bought some extra attys and batts. The 1st 2 attys I bought do not have the white oval at the bottom of the attys. The one's I've bought recently do.

I needed to clean my atty, (my wife uses the 2nd of the A/M(after mrkt) attys), and grabbed the OEM atty. 10 minutes of vaping and it melted the cart. Emailed the girls @ cignot.com wondering if it was something I did, and 4 minutes later they emailed back the tracking # for the free replacement atty. I thought, ok, wasn't me. (And wow am I ever blown away by how good their customer service is!!)

I only drip, and just read another thread about cutting the carts back and that got rid of some of the 'chemical' taste I was experiencing. YAY! And TY to whoever wrote that post. Plus, now I don't have to worry about cart alignment!

Picked up a few extra OEM attys today. Popped 1 on to get it broken in and man did it taste like azz. And yes I blew out the primer. I've been vaping on it now for about 8 hrs and although it produces clouds of vapor, there is no taste.

Here's my question... Do the OEM attys burn so much hotter than A/M attys that it cooks the taste off? I'm using butterscotch VG, 36mg & 18mg. I can usually taste it fine, but not with the OEM. Have any of you found this to be true as well? Or do the OEM attys take longer to break in b4 the flavor comes thru?

Right now, it just tastes like wet cardboard and steam. Not pleasant at all. And I DO NOT want to go back to analogs!

Any and all help is appreciated.

Sorry, no answer - just gotta say that I love your sig. It just inspired me to change mine to "Cogito, ergo vape."

Um... "I think, therefore I vape"?

Yupper!

 

[JKBonin]

Hmmmmmm ....

I may just steal that. Seems more.... powerful than mine.

Hmmmmm

Course now, mine is stolen as well. Can't remember from who, but semi credit where it's due.

Not sure if I can nail your exact problem.. but do let me say this.

I popped open a brand new Joye 510 atty today and was absolutely shocked at the amount of primer that was in this unit. It was saturated and then some. I blew it out.. blew it out some more.. and then blew it out again. Still flooded with primer.

I have no personal patience for that, so I rinsed it out, dried it out, and then re-primed it with my own liquid. If I had used it in the "typical" manner (primer dilution) it probably would have taken me the better part of the day to get the taste to where I expect it to be.

Yup, the one I'm using now was loaded up too. Took me a good 10 or 12 blows thru to stop the primer from coming out. Maybe I shoulda kept on for another 10 or 12.

If it is still primer, after 8 frickin hours, will that override the butterscotch I've been using?

 

[Scottbee]

The primer kills the taste on most of my "delicate" flavors like English Toffee.. Butterscotch.. etc.. Only my tobacco and menthol flavors usually punch through.

I had been vaping Vapor King 510's from Electroniccigarettesinc.com from the beginning and would have flavor fluctuate from, what I thought was, good flavor to bitter to no flavor on the same juice. I bought a pass through from Purevapor with some of their atomizers and I was so totally surprised at the fantastic flavor I experienced. I then bought an Ego and added mega atomizers/carts from totallywicked.com and it just got better. I don't know if this addresses your question but I have become quite particular in choosing atomizers now. By the way the mega carts are great they hold so much juice they are fantastic (wish they had whistle tip though).

Im kinda picky on my attys as well, only Joye what type attys are you using?

So you're saying the pureflavor attys are A/M, not OEM? Cuz like I said, I do get more flavor from the A/M attys. Does PV have real JOYE attys?

The A/M attys came from the same factory that makes them for Joye, but don't have the white oval inside. (or so I was told). I have 2 of those and now have 4 or 5 Joye attys w/the white oval.

I am using Purevapors' 510 on the pass through (dripping) and Totallywicked's mega 510s on the Ego with mod mega carts, both have been performing wonderfully.

inspired me as well

inspired me as well

lol "I vape, therefore I am."? Pretty sure. good 1

 

[Gsr1379]

I was thinking about with new attys. i would start to blow them out and then vape just pure VG until the flavor was gone. and maybe even start doing that in between flavors. Just a thought

Alright, now I'm gonna have to adopt that "vapito" since it sounds so much better than vape.
