Ok got a dct from hc and the first 2 days of vaping are great! Throat hit and flavour was excellent. Then the bottom of the carto starts to leak, (the part where is screwed in the battery ), causing my battery have some juice on it too. What should I do? Give up on carto totally and use attys? Really love the dct 6ml for the capacity but the leaking is driving me nuts...

Its normal. Try slow but long steady draws.

You want it to flood? simple.... take 5 - 10 quick fast, very hard draws and your DCT will start flooding. Alternatively you can blow hard instead of sucking and ALL the e-juice will empty out.

Yea I tell myself to take slow draws but maybe I'm too used to smoking analogs.. wasted 3 cartos alr damn

Doesn't really matter what you use, at the end of the day, it's how you use it and how heavy of a vaper you are. If you vape really heavily a carto or atty will only last you about 7-10 days. At most I'd give a carto or atty a max of 2 weeks, then its best to just change it. I wouldn't advise dry burning pre-built factory made attys either, even though there're videos to show you how to do it, resistance wires, the wires that coil around your wick are also prone to wear and tear, too much dry burn will shorten its life span, you can clean the wicks and whatnot but ultimately it comes down to the resistance wire. It will eventually short out or fail to fire.

You can get a rebuildable tank, those tanks you see out there are just tanks, in the middle they still use a carto, I went into rebuildable tanks and never looked back, I got an Odysseus, but they're rare and hard to get, although there're many other options out there for rebuildables you can look at.

Yes, I am using a rebuildable tank from hc too, but I gotta unscrew the carto from the batt each time i vape and usually find a drop of juice on the battery which came from the carto
