question about cartos??

[LuckyLulu]

I recently bought 5 Smoketech 510 mega cartomizers 1.7 ohms to use on the gripper mod.
Every one of them makes the juice taste burnt. I use 3.7v 16340 batts.
I have been vaping for 2 years, normally drip but trying carto's again and I love this little mod.
According the chart on MV, these should work fine.
I am not "tech" smart and have no idea what an ohm is. Can someone tell me what I carto's I should try that would give good warm vapor and not burn my juice?
Thanks!!!!

Those cartos should work perfect but u might have gotten diff cartos. I use my fav boge 2.0 ohm with 3.7v mod. Any carto with a resistance of 1.25-2 ohm will work. As for the burnt taste, I guess you know how to fill and when to refill cartos? I'm always having to refill my carto, I use tanks. I fill my boges with a syringe to fully saturate quickly and kinda open up the poly fill. Remember higher ohm carto with higher voltages, and lower ohm (resistance) cartos with lower voltages(3.7v)!!

Thanks for replying. I am saturating the cartos first, some have been sitting overnight before I even try them.
I'm going to toss them and try again.

sometimes there ia a bit of primer...kinda tastes like burnt ........do some quick puffs then take a real puff and see if that helps.

could be the flavor settles down when the battery drains a bit. A freshly charged battery is pushing 4.1-4.2 volts which on a 1.7 ohm is around 10 watts of heat. My lavatube wont go over 4.1-4.3 volts on a 1.7. When the battery drains down to the normal 3.7v you'll be seeing about 8 watts of heat which a lot people consider the sweet spot.

Remember also that there can be a plus/minus .2 ohm's on any carto. If your 1.7 is really a 1.5 then you hitting almost 11.5 watts on a fresh charge.

A 2 ohm carto with a freshly charged battery will give you around 8.5 watts of heat and when the battery gets down to 3.7 you'll be just under 7 watts.

I wouldnt mess with a 2.5 ohm, thats going to be around 7 watts fully charged but down to 5.5 watts which would be pretty anemic.

Every juice responds differently to different levels of heat.
