I ordered an assortment from Pink Spot. 'Outlaw' - 'Ry8' - 'USA Mix' etc...

None of them hardly produce any vapor, but a wicked throat hit.

What the heck is going on here?

Wheres my vapor?!

Also, they all seem to taste the exact same. I'm not sure why, but they all taste the same. Could it be a bad batch? Im starting to really doubt my love for e-cig's. If it's not one thing wrong, it's 12 others.

It's much eaiser to open a pack of analogs, and go to town. And at this rate, it's much cheaper.

This is pretty much it for me honestly. I've had 70% failures since I've gotten into this.

BTW: I'm using a K-GO 510 dual coil & my SB & 3.7 volts w/ both a DC Carto & a LR 510.

Well, that should give you a bit more vapor. My guess is that you might have overfilled/underfilled your cartomizer. This will lead to a lack of vapor. Dual coils generally only take 45 drops. Letting it sit for an extra 30 minutes will let it seep throughout the carto so that it can get the diapers (cotton piece wrapped around coil) wet.

I figured as much. I do the condom method and filled it 3 times, standard 510 dc carto condom. Have been doing this many other times with the same amount per fill with other juices, and it's indeed just fine. I have not-- I repeat not flooded my atty's while trying this juice. Wicked throat hit, barely any vapor at all. I've tried this now on a wide rage from spare Volt cartos, to SmokTech, HR, LR, SR res attys (510). I'm pretty floor'd by how angry this has me. I have PG dominant juices @ 24mg's that don't cause this havoc on my throat that this VG dominate 18mg is.

edit: not to mention the pg dominate juices are actually producing vapor.

If your using a standard 510 condom. Than you also have to drip on the top of it as well. This will ensure all of the filler is properly wet.

I'll tell you what is wrong, their juices. I purchased several last month and don't care for them. No vapor, flavor is okay, and the TH wasn't a TH...it was a nightmare. I believe they use Lorann's flavorings which aren't the best flavorings to use for vaping. They have a tendency to cause the same problems you're experiencing now. I gave up on buying another round of eliquids from them.

Brand new cartos. Let me say this: i have absolutely narrowed it down to particular juices. all my pink spot flavors. If i plugin other cartos that ive filled OR ATOMIZERS with different juice, i have no problems what so ever. with other juices it literally spews out vapor.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks it's their juices and not the hardware.

Maybe they didn't steep them. I always steep loranns in my DIYs.

i placed the order last wednesday, got them today. i'm quite sure they've had time to steep in the mail + the holiday.

sob. i feel so outrageously let down and just literally want to cry, lmao. it's been a long day and this is the last thing i needed. sigh. first time in a quite a while i truthfully want a cigarette.

    Pink spot is my daily vape and I never have any problems with it. Pink Spot...Blu spot and candy cane are some of my favs. If cost is an issue you have picked a premium e- liquid. Its cost is twice as much as some vendors. Ivape is a good middle of the road juice and its all very good. Rawr is expensive but is great at tobacco juices. Vapor cast are the menthol kings!

    You shouldn't give up. IMO it's a great time to get some juice that's actually worth it. Here's a couple of places where I get my juice from and had no issues with them at all:
