You really don't need to fill cartos before using on a REO

This is pretty much what I've been doing since I switched to cartos but sometimes I get a carto that doesn't want to prime and I have to squonk on every vape or I get harsh burning taste. I'm not sure what the issue is...I'm trying it with various juices so should I chalk it up to a faulty carto?

I'm using Boge and Resurrectors if that helps at all...it seems to be more of an issue with the Resurrectors.

I'd say it's probably a batch of faulty cartos. I've been reading several posts about both brands having really slipped in QC as of late.

I popped on a boge and it's business as usual. Just another reason I'm happy with cartos. I've got enough boge and resurrectors to last me at least 6 months and even if 1/2 of them are bad, I'm not out that much money and still have enough to last 3 months. When I used atomizers, if one went bad, I had to evaluate my stock, clean everything, see if I could get it working again and ultimately replace it.

I'd be mad over a bad atomizer but I toss out cartos guilt and worry free.

That can happen if you burn them some right off the bat. I try to be really careful on the first few hits to avoid that.
I just bump or pulse the button the first few times to make sure I'm burning juice not filler.

Once you get a slight burnt taste it can hang around forever. And just like you said if you give a tiny squonk every hit it seems OK.

I also conclude that the 1.7s do burn more than the 2.0 Boge as well. Makes sense I guess.
