out of no where my atomizer doesnt work. when i say doesnt work i mean it doesnt produce vapor but it does glow orange and hot and it sizzles. the poly fill is in its place and theres the right amount of ejuice in the cartridge and the battery is connected properly. atomizer works but with no vapor. ive tried soaking it in iso alcohol, blowing it out, and dry burning it. it sizzles, gets hot, and the coils glow orange so what is going on? why doesnt it make vapor? help?

Sounds like the juice is not flowing from the cartridge to the atomizer. Put one or two drops of juice onto the bridge of the atty then make sure your cart is moist but not soggy, put the cart into the atty and take a couple of puffs without pressing the battery switch. Sometimes the wicking action seems to need a jump start.

Good luck.

thanks for the imput. i found out that my atomizer was actually flooded after washing it with water. after i washed it i didnt let it fully dry out i only blew it out but the wick was still wet and got even further saturated when i primed the atomizer with a few drops of eliquid. thats why it wasnt working, the damn thing was flooded with water and ejuice! so i blew out the water and ejuice and and did not put a few drops of ejuice to prime it this time and with a new cart it works!
