Hey friends,
First of all, I've been vaping for close to a year now and it's great.. My current pv is the totally wicked tornado (aka ego?). I use the standard 510 atty, and I drip liquid into the cartridge (menthol is lovely).
The problem I'm having is that I've started mixing my own liquid and it's not wicking properly. When I use the pre-mixed liquid from Totally Wicked, I can vape continuously until the cartridge dries up (the wool turns white), but when I vape with my own custom mixed liquid I can only vape until the atty dries up (the cartridge stays saturated even though the vapor tastes burnt and dry). It doesn't seem to matter how I mix my liquid.. I've tried mixing with straight PG, with straight VG, with a 50/50 mix of PG/VG, and I even tried thinning the liquid with Vodka (even with half vodka and half PG).. No matter what I do I can only vape until the atty dries up, at which point I have to continuously drip onto the atty to keep vaping.. As soon as I switch back to the pre-mixed liquid from TW I can vape the cartridge dry with ease.. I've also had the same results with multiple attys, and have the same results with attys cleansed in alcohol..
I'm running out of things to try. WTH is going here??? Any ideas? Thanks for listening!
