I can't believe it's been 3 years already. Vapor Talk was the first forum I joined when I started vaping my NJoy NPro, and I never left. Thanks to Christopher and the fine members here. I've had a blast hanging out with you all. :hugs:

So today has been a vaping fail...I know we have all had the moments where nothing wants to work or work correctly. I truly have a love hate relationship with vaping. When it works it is the best thing ever invented. When it doesn't I want to throw it all away and bash my head into a brick wall. Maybe this is just me. Perhaps not. Having vaped for almost a year now I know this is just a phase that will soon pass. I have had these times in the past and they can last a couple hours to a couple weeks. I hope this is just a one day thing. At the moment I'm dripping on a 901 and it at least is working...lol there is a small light at the end of this head bashing tunnel of vaping failure. Keep your head up and keep on vaping...by any means necessary.

Since you prefer SR, I'm going to suggest IkenVape's IKV 901 SR Atomizer 2.5Ω. IkenVape produces some really incredible atties, and are the only place I know of at the moment who have quality SR and HR 901s. The complete IkenVape 901 lineup (LR,SR, & HR) can be found here. Using an eGo drip shield, I start a fresh 901 atty off by dripping 6-7 drops in, wait about 30 seconds, and add a few more just before vaping. With said shield in place, I usually add 5-6 drops when vapor production starts dropping off. The 901 is a different beast as it has an air vent hole in it's side, and as you probably already know from your research, the drip shield was invented by Empire Mods specifically for the 901 atty to contain the leaking e-liquid and provide a reserve. The big difference between the 901 and 510s/306s is that the 901 seems to still produces good vapor when it's flooded (coil submerged), where the others don't (in my experience). Remember to get a couple because for some reason, higher end atties are a little unpredictable as to lifespan...my last one lasted just over 3 weeks, but I think I popped it by accident when I put it on my VV set for a HR atty. I hope this helps and I'm sure that once you try a good 901, you'll have a hard time going back to anything else. I haven't been able to enjoy my other atties as much since I started using 901s...at least that's where I am now.

Ive been waiting 2 years .... some of you old timers will get the humor

i see you are using a smok DCT (the tank) you might want to try the CE2 style DCC (inner cartridge) it might be easier to deal with since you don't have to worry about keeping the cart filled and i've had better expereinces overall with them http://www.madvapes.com/tank-replacement-dual-coil-cartomizers-1-5-ohms-dual-hole.html also, since you're using high vg blends (i do too) you might want to consider getting the DCCs with an extra hole (it'll help with the flow)

Congratulations Jeff!! Amazing how fast that 3 years went, huh? Even though I don't say much anymore, this is (and always has been) my one and only forum.

Well, mark me down as an idiot. Up until finding this video right here on this forum: .....I've been taking drags off of my Bolt by inhaling straight into my lungs. As opposed to taking a drag like a normal cigarette; pulling it into your mouth, and then inhaling it into your lungs. Once I changed my method, I was getting a much better vapor cloud and not as harsh of a throat hit. I really feel stupid. I guess all of the videos I've watched, to me, it looked like the people were inhaling straight into their lungs. Welp. Now that that's out of the way, I'm still on my quest to find the perfect ratio of PG/VG/nic and a favorite flavor. Got some more juices on the way as of last night. Thanks again for all the help, jeff. Much appreciated.

Also make sure your connections are clean. Sometimes juice gets in the connector and can cause problems

Hmmmmmmm, maybe the carto is flooded? How did it vape before you filled the tank?

Welcome to Vapor Talk Gunner. It sounds like the juice is not getting into your cartos in the tank. Did you prime the carto first? ( add about 20 drops to the carto before filling the tank) Sometimes a juice with a high concentrate of VG doesnt wick well into the carto.

I have only seen one result that has mentioned Smok Tech Triple coil punched cartomizers so I was wondering if anyone has tried them. I found them here: http://www.gulfcoast...-tp-dccarto.htm and was thinking about getting them. I just looked again and it is actually a triple punched dual coil. So does anyone know where to find a triple coil one? But I would like to get use to using the tank as I just got it today. I filled it up a little over 2/3 full and put only 20 drops in the carto and got a burnt cardboard taste. With a single draw like this will it affect its performance after it is filled completely? Anyways I ended up overfilling it a little and got several drops out the bottom. Then I got some gurgling and found that the battery had some juice on the contact so I wiped it out and everything was fine. Except it seems like the grape flavor of the grape ice is a little dull but I am not the only one saying it is. But other than that it seems to be working fine. I am thinking about getting a few of these as I think that is a really good price for a triple coil carto for the tank I have. But wanted to know if anyone has an opinion about them and if they would work with my joye ego battery if it is the 1.5 ohm instead of the 2.0. Also as a note the battery is a passthrough but not the true passthroughs that have no battery and plug directly into a usb port. I think I may get a true 510 passthrough soon as it is only 12-15 and not much and I have a all day job to do on Wednesday of next week so I should be able to easily get one.
