I am using a 510, have been for almost 2 years. lately, I have been having issues with atomizers not lasting very long, even after cleaning, and I have tried almost every cleaning process listed on here.
I have tried buying the atty's in bulk, but evidently you get what you pay for. So, please give me suggestions as to where you get your atty's what the price normally is, (if you remember) and how well they last. Also for fyi info, I also always use XL batteries. Thx for your suggestions.

I don't know the price - I pay maybe $7 for an atomizer buying real Joye? I don't use expensive types of atomizers like those wide Ego ones or tank atomizers. I will not pay that much for an atomizer.

I use Liberty-Flights.com (press the 20% off upper left front page, then shop at the lowered prices)

And LiteCigUSA.net

And if you want something nicer like hybrid 510/306 see Avid Vaper

I have most recently bought the bulk joye atomizers from vaper king, but even brand new maybe 2 out of 10, work like other new atomizers. So, as it turns out not really worth it, they are like under $5 per atomizer, compared to other places that are around $7 to 8 per atty. I would like to get a month of use with an atty, with cleaning, but with the bulk atty's I am lucky if I get a week, or two, that is not the average.

I feel your pain about the bulk purchases. It's not fun tossing out 2 or 3 attys from a box of 5 after just a day or so. They're not DOA, but they sure are russian roulette at times. Sometimes they're ALL great. Weird how that works. Same thing with Cartos. Get a box of 5 and 3 are duds... then next time they're all great.

I think that's why a lot of folk are serious into the Buli and Iatty type of Build your own attys.

With that said, I've never had problems yet with Cisco's. (but, naturally, there are a few reports on them even).
IkenVape is another great one. (so far...)

Good luck!

Hi,
I feel your pain! I recently bought 5 Vapage 2ohm hybrid bridgless attys from COV. They were on sale for 5 bucks, I think before they did an upgrade. (thus the 5 bucks) First lasted about 2 weeks, second lasted about two weeks and sucked like a golf ball up a garden hose. The third lasted about three weeks...better draw but gurgled alot. I was just happy for three weeks! Seems like I have to turn the voltage up to get a better hit as time goes on, then at about 4Volts, Bang, cold air! Hope to keep the Fourth one under 4v to see how long it lasts. For a bridgless dripping atty the Vapage does have the best flavor so far. Trick is to remember to keep it wet!!! I will recommend them only after I test the new 9 dollar design.

Sorry, I forgot to mention I use a vvmod, evercool. Regular LIon batterys go from 4.2v to 2.5v thru the discharge cycle. I usually start out on a low voltage setting on break in, like 2.8 volts then after about a day or two ramp it up to 3.6 depending on the flavor and throat hit. Those with iron throats run them over 4v and above... I adjust my voltage to the liquid type in use.
