When I first started I was using 3 atomizers. One for coffee flavors, one for cinnamon flavors, and one for fruit flavors.

I never got consistent vapor with my fruit atty and thought it was the juices, it was really frustrating because I had so many fruity juices and liked the taste of them. My atty was brand new and seemed to work fine, wrong.

It was just a weak atty, I finally switched attys just to see and it was perfect. Clouds of vapor like I like. Sigh of relief... and that is my newbie story, hope it saves someone the trouble. :)

what were the symptoms of the bad atty? I just started vaping it does seem rather inconsistent. One minute a get a good hit, the next a really weak one. One minute, hard throat hit but little vapor, the next no throat hit and a bunch of vapor, then a proper mix of both...argh! I'm still trying to feel out the different in a dry cart, different fillers, or me just not allowing enough time for it to replenish the atty, etc.

Just buy yourself a multimeter and you will never have to guess if you have a bad atty again. You will be able to measure the ohms.
