I can't seem to get my new atty to produce vapor.

It tests good with multi-meter. and tries to put out vapor, but make very puny vapor clouds. Sad .

Is there a secret trick I don't know about?
I top off the cart, that doesn't work. I try dripping directly onto the bridge, that helps make one puny little, ,miniature cloud, but that's all, then it quits again. :mad: I tried fresh, new batteries, I've tried blowing out the atty to make sure it's not clogged, I've tried more liquid, less liquid, drawing slow, drawing longer, etc, etc. I'm pooped! I don't get it.

The meter says its a good atty.

Is there something else I can try? What does this mean, does it mean I flooded my atty, did I add liquid to a hot atty and ruin it, or something? idk.

Have you had this happen with 801 atty's and if so, were you able to make it produce vapor finally, or no?

Any suggestions would be great, thanks!!

:confused: *sigh*
