Possible for liquid not vape on carts versus cartos?

[mjt]

Using the same mix I can get almost no vape on my cartos with one liquid that was working fine with carts. Other liquids are working great so it's not the a mismatch on the cartos. Anyone else experienced this?

Then my guess is it's too thick for cartos. I use 20% VG or less in standard stuffing cartos. 30% works but I feel the drag/wicking suffers a bit. I won't go thicker on standard resistance cartos (which are all you can use on slim ecigs). tanks/reservoir cartos like 20-30% OK and maybe some thinner 50/50's

Alternately - if you are using thin liquid then maybe the carto is improperly filled/settled. Or maybe you are using CE2 cartos and the wicks are pinched. I don't know. Not Enough Info on what you are using. What is your PG/VG, what ohms atomizer, what type/ohms carto?

They are just labled 510 - 2.2-2.4 Ohm Cartomizers, my battery is 280m. The juice is 100% PG. That's all I know.

PG certainly should work.

Stuffing cartomizer? Clear cartomizer? (CE2's can have pinched wicks and need modding)

If they are some random crap brand then there can be wide variation in how well the carto works. I got some crap brand of 2.5 ohm stuffing cartos - first was super (so good I bought 2 more packs) and the second was like sucking on a wet dog - was barely firing and tasted stale. Right in the trash with that one and I plan to throw away all 13 I have left. Crap cartos. They were also inconsistent inside - one had noticeably less/shorter stuffing than the other.

And even a good brand can have an occasional dud though I have never had a dud with Boge.

Yes they are stuffing and a no name brand. I've learned my lessons in 3 weeks. I bought all new gear.

I bought all new gear after 3 weeks too.

Try another carto from the same pack - maybe it will be OK.

Then I'm in good company!!!


I have wasted two cartos trying to get a decent vape.
