Have you give it a good blow through ? That sounds like a wicking problem or flooding

sounds rude! How do I give it a good blow through?

Oo er missus

This is going to sound pornographic

Get a piece of tissue and put it over the bottom of the attie and stick your gob round the end were the tank goes and give it a good blow
You'll get rid of all the trapped juice and it should help with flooding/wicking problems

camperman this is what I think i will do, I'm going to steer clear of the LR tank atties from now on.

Are the standard tank atties more reliable in your opinion or would i be better with a cleromizer?

It's all about preference really as I use both

If your happy with the standard tanks carry on using them if you want to try something different try clearos, not much help I know but both are good.

I've not used a standard tank atty, as I much preferred the LR510 attys over a standard 510.... I just bought the LRTanks automatically.

[bluecow1980]

just done the blow through on my LR tank, still dead... which tbh i expected as it popped before it died.

I agree that the LR tank attys are absolute rubbish.If you want tank attys that last longer,get the standard resistance ones.I would try the 2.4-2.6ohm clearomisers,they are alot more reliable and give a much better vape than the tank attys.

The words "cracking" and "popping" make me wonder if the batteries are too powerful (too high voltage) for the atties ??? In other words, best not use LR atties on those batteries.

[bluecow1980]

i would agree scylla, except i'm using the same batteries that come with any tank kit....

[camperman]

All my atties crackle n pop Scyl as it shows it healthy and theirs juice wicking on it

[Scylla]

It's just that that's what happened with some standard 901s I had when I used them at 5v. They died Whereas other standard 901s were fine on the same battery ???

I've also had crackly/poppy atties that were good. But when they're crackly/poppy and they die... well

Maybe somebody put rice crispies in them when we weren't looking

Yep! my crackles but I cannot get nothing out of it! and sucking like hell! tried to demo it to the bluecow over the phone this morning! Shes tried to put me right but reckons I am a lost cause!
That said - the new itank (which I am using now) seems to be cracking good in comparison!

[bluecow1980]

she is a lost cause..... ive known that for years now!

Worth pointing out too, that holycows atties are the standard tank atties as they came with her tank kit.

Ive never got on with the tank attys.I bought 10 and then quickly sold them on as the first two were pants.I only use the maptank now as it holds 5ml and wicks brilliantly.I think the tank system is a good idea,just needs to be drastically improved.
