Why do my fluxomizers taste bad?

[Pineapplecawks]

I have opened 3 of the 5 fluxomizers that came in my pack.. i have been filling them with Gummy bear, caramel apple, and blue berry. no matter what flavor it is after filling them i get about 5 good hits of flavor then they start giving me a burnt taste.. the taste is almost exactly the same as if that batting on a normal cart and atomizer set up was in need of a refill. very unappetizing to say the least.

Am i doing something wrong when filling them? i have tried to flip them up and let them sit so that the wick would be re-wet but i come up with the same results every time.

Most likely the bottom silicon seal around the ceramic cup is pinching the wicking material. I would suggest pulling that seal out, fluffing the wick a little, and then putting the seal back down in, but not seating it tight... Also, not sure what the liquid is you are using, but thick VG may not wick as well.

Another option is to trim that seal were the wick goes through. I wish I had time to post pics for you. But I just use scissors and cut a larger "V" hole for the wick.

And finally, if you have the XL's try taking the bottom seal out completely, putting the second seal back in and then the plug, tip, or your own drip tip.

There is a great thread on the GotVapes grand opening with some suggestions and also a huge thread on CE2 R4's somewhere on ECF. Just search.

Good Luck and welcome to ECF fellow Virginian.

You can also try tipping up the battery end when you vape...helps wick the liquid to the top where the element is located.

I just tip it after every few vapes, and it seems to take care of the issue.

Because Microcig still has a mediocre product and not to name a few are rebranding them and selling them.
