Well, I think I finally have found a good ecig. I went through a Luci, a SE, and now just received a 510, and absolutely love it so far. The Luci and SE were so bad that I stopped pursing the ecig for several months. I do have a few questions about the 510 though.

I noticed after my first pre-filled cart that after a few smoking sessions that the vapor goes down, throat hit goes down, and a terrible burning sensation takes over my throat. The 510 also gets very hot. But, if I put a few drops on the atty, it vapes great with big throat hit, nice vapor, and no burning sensation. The 510 also doesn't get as hot. Why is this? Do carts just not work well with the 510? Anything I can do to make a great cart so I don't have to drip all the time?

On a side note, LiteCigUSA rocks! I placed my order last Friday night and received it Monday morning. Great service there.

-Thanks

Sounds like your cart is going dry.

The 510 carts with standard fill don't hold much juice.

See the cart-mod section of these forums for examples of folks trying to get a more consistant vape.

The poly fill can also become hardened at the atty end and not wick as well. You can flip it for a bit longer life on it, but I'd just replace it.

Yes, and that is why you need to start looking at your options in the following subforum...

Thanks for the advice. Whenever this happens the cart still looks to have some juice in it, so I figure its the filling that is causing the issue. I've done some searching on the tea bag carts and hope to give it a try soon. I love this 510.

Thanks again.
