I recently bought a 901 LR atomizer from empiremods.com and I'm using it with one of their drip shields (not really relevant to this issue) and a 510-901 adapter on my Ego battery.
I'm more than used to getting a primer liquid / taste out of an atomizer, but this is my first 901 atty and it's giving me a lot of trouble getting it to taste right.
When I first took it out of the package I blew out (battery-end down) any liquid that was in there. Then I put 4 drops of e-liquid on the atty and did a few 2 second dry burns. Then I blew the contents out again and repeated. Then I started taking a few puffs without inhaling, then repeated the process. This is what I normally do, perhaps it's wrong.
As a last resort I've also tried soaking it for 10-15 minutes in pure grain alky.
After dripping and blowing over 20 times it still tastes like primer.
Does anyone have any tips for me as to what I did wrong? I have one more left and I don't want to ruin it. Do I treat the 901's differently than a 510 (which is what I'm used to)?
