Julbil, it's probably just a manufacturing defect in that one carto. I had a Boge 2.0 one time that didn't have the little side air hoses drilled. Needless to say, I wasn't getting any draw on that carto at all.

So now, in addition to testing the cartos with a DMM, I give them all a good visual inspection before filling them.

Things like that happen in the manufacturing field. Cutters and drills break and wear out. Operators make mistakes. And I know for a fact that every single part does not get 100% QC'd.

I don't think it's worth trying to fix. Just chalk it up to the cost of doing business (vaping) and trash can it.

Or maybe the dealer will replace it.


Yeah, I finished squishing down the insides to get some more of my juice out. After your post I checked and there aren't any vent holes either. Missed that part. LOL I've had a few DOA that seemed normal, just was hoping for a fix. At these prices I really don't worry about the occasional malfunction. Thanks for the help!

Andrew, ive asked this earlier, but i dont think you saw my post.

Are you getting mini lavatubes, as well? Or just the regular versions?


getting a sample one with my order, we are getting the new an improved lavatubes, that actually let you drive a dual coil at higher volts without kicking down voltage., and read ohms of the carto also.

On the 510 end of my Ressurectors there is usually a center post that looks like you could put a screwdriver to it and turn it, I just filled a new one and that center piece is different. It doesn't have that cross hatch. When I put it on my battery it won't fire unless I loosen it up about a half turn and even then it pops and won't give me any vapor. Is the bottom missing something? I've had a couple of duds that were obviously doa, because they tasted yucky, but this one seemed like it wanted to work but something was missing. I checked all my others from that shipment and they all have the cross hatch thing. Anyone know of a way to fix it. I sucked the juice out with a syringe, didn't want to waste it.

It's actually the cross slot that didn't get cut out of the bottom of the center post. You won't get vapor cause that cross slot is where the air is pulled thru and into the bottom of the carto. I've had 1 carto just like that. It was like suckin on a Mc Donalds milk shake. You could see the vein in my forehaed poppin out. You can't really fix it unless you have a dremel and just do a cross slot across the whole bottom right in the middle. That's what I did and it worked fine. That's 2 cartos now that I know of that missed the cross slot cut in the close to 2 years I've been vaping....very rare defect.
