so i got some juice from viking vapor for my dse 901. i just 5 different kinds. and on 2 that i have tried so far, the vapor and taste is way down. to make sure it wasnt the atty i cleaned it and tried a different company's juice. atty's check out fine. i got the mix. so it is 70%pg 30%vg. any ideas???

if i have a brand new cleaned atty the vapor and taste is there for the first battery or so( 2 refills worth) but then after that it drops off very quickly. even on a fully charged battery.

Some juices, imo just seem to be a bit to thick for smaller devices. Tasty vapor was the same way for me. Didn't want to work that great unless I was cooking it with a 18650 battery for some reason. At 5v, it's really good. But like you say, after a little while on a device running maybe a 14500, it seems to clog the atty up.

well i e mailed him and this is what he said:

Hi Jon,

You will find that we typically will leave our liquids as concentrated as possible in an effort to preserve flavor strength and allow the customer to receive the most bang for their buck. Unfortunately, depending upon the device and method of use, this will dance on the edge of being to thick for some vaporizers. Dark liquids typically contain thicker flavorings and it is common that folks will want to thin these a bit to customize for their own device. You'll likely find this to be the case with your Root Beer and Smore (Eggnog is usually not an issue but may be in your device).

In order to thin down your liquids you can simply add a few drops of distilled water to the bottle and shake it up until a consistency is reached that works best for you. Typically the amount needed will not be enough to significantly decrease flavor or the nicotine strength. Even thinning them down the dark liquids will still remain to be higher maintenance however and you will probably want to blow your atty out every few hours. I personally love the darker flavors and will typically direct drip them (drip 2-3 drops directly onto the bridge of the atomizer rather than fill carts). By keeping the atomizer wet I am able to get several hours of use prior to having to blow them out.

Hope that helps and please let us know if we may assist further in any way,

i will thin them out a little and try again. i did blow out the atty like he said and it did help.
