VTube kind of lacking something...

I have a VTube that I had picked up from Apollo. It blew me away when I first got it but I have found that I have steadily been increasing my voltage and being rather underwhelmed with it as of late. Vapor production seems mediocre and throat hit and flavor are hardly there at all. It is marginally better with a fresh battery but after 2 or 3 pulls it is back to being just kind of blah again.

I do not have an ohm meter, but I believe that all of my attys are 3.0 ohms. I currently have a smoke tech dual coil carto with a tank on it and it is still lacking. I had the tank/cartos for a few weeks now but I never used them before today. I am getting a bit more vapor out of it but it is still lacking flavor/throat hit. Since I have been feeling that it is kind of lacking I have been changing the atomizer more frequently and it doesn't seem to make much of a difference.

I did some reading this week and I have been finding that Provari has consistency in the voltage going for it. That is what you set it for is what you are getting out of it. I have a feeling that my VTube is not really putting out the voltage that it is set to since it fades so quickly once there is a little drain on the battery. That being said, my batteries are a bit old. Some of them are from February or so and the others are from May. I am not sure if they might be kind of decaying with age?

I ordered a Provari last night with some fresh batteries and new attomizers. I am hoping that it will do the trick and make vaping as enjoyable as it was before. Until that arrives though, anyone have any ideas for what I could try to get some life back into this thing?

I once had a huge drop off in ProVari performance and it was 100 percent user(my) error. Even though the ProVari site warns to clean the battery contacts and the top atomizer contact with 91-99% alcohol on a regular basis I did not. When my second ProVari started acting funny thats when I finally looked into it.

After a quick swabbing everything was back to normal.

Just a thought.
