Redripping Frustrations

[honsano]

Okay so I have been using my 401 for about a week and a half now. I ran out of the cartridges they gave me pretty quickly and instead of buying more I went economical and bought liquid instead.

So I drip and I puff. 3,4 maybe even 5 drags then boom....nothing comes out. I open up the cartridge and there those tiny little fibers so shiny with liquid are attached to my atomizer. Then I have to take them off and get the liquid which I just put on them all over my fingers as I try to stuff the fibers back into place. This is about the most frustrating thing in the world. I am puffing then it stops and I open it up and without fail the stupid little fibers get sucked up into the atomizer.

At first I thought I was pulling too hard. Becoming over-zealous for the vapor. I'm beginning to think this dang thing is just flawed. Anyone else having these redrip issues? It's killing my atomizers and I can't get a decent vaping session. If you have this problem and found a way around it for hte love of god share it. I'm a pretty chill guy but this is top 5 most annoying things I have come across.

Are you dripping with a cart or just an empty moutpiece?

ETA: If there is no filling in the mouthpiece, then I have no idea. I am sure someone here can help though. If you are dripping and using the cart, the cart cannot be dry.

Sounds like the fiber in your cart is out too far......it should be flush with the end of the cartridge...there is a thread here also(somewhere) on maximizing cart usage that might give you some tips...I mostly drip directly on the atomizer itself..so I don't have that problem! Good Luck!The Wiz!

Like Wiz said... make sure the "fuzz" is flat with the end of the cart. If you are using a paperclip to push it up before you refill it... use that same paperclip to push it back down in there into the mouthpiece before you put it back together. I notice if the cart is not all the way into the mouthpiece and the atomizer hits it when I put it back together.. then I end up with fuzzies on the atomizer. Also... if you are re-stuffing carts with new poly stuffing.. use fluval instead of batting. Reduces the fuzzies.

hi hanso . I gave up on cart refilling along time ago they are simply to much hassle on
a m401/evo ,they are ok for direct dripping though .If your not already ,just drip about 2 drops
on to the steel wick and wait for it to soak in a few seconds (the wick actually carries the fluid up behind the heating element) then add another couple of drops .this should get about 12-15 very good puffs .If your a good aim you could also just drip 1 or 2 drops down onto the batting to keep it moist it can get bit fluffy sometimes and get stuck to the steel wick. Just a well tried and tested technique hope it helps
