..vaping that is...
I'm going through one of those periods when nothing at all seems to be working properly.
I've been here many times before, the worst one being when everything I vaped tasted of nothing at all. That was well over a year ago..
This time it seems to be down to equipment.
All my various batteries seem to be in good working order but my atties, whether clearos, cartos, LRs, regulars, 510's, 901's, blue foam, tanks, mods.....all rubbish!
Everything leaks or doesn't provide flavour or vapour.
I'm at a bit of a loss really...
Any ideas?
Lynda

Hy Lynda, Have you given dual coil clear cartomizers a go?! Good luck and a strong hug!

Everything tastes metallic to me at the moment I was blaming some new LRs but have tried some well seasoned ones and some strongly flavoured juices but the metallic taste is still coming through.

I'm just about to fill a clearo Roachie. Pretty sure it's me though. I might test a menthol burst on a cart to see if it cleanses my gob.

Have you tried the latest Tank atomisers Lynda?
Type B, 2ml tanks, sold on LF, Ivapour and TW.
They give a very good throat hit (LR version), decent flavour, plenty of vapour, and so far, for me they have a decent shelf life before wimping off.
I hated the 1st lot of tank atomisers with a passion, but these perform way better. There's no leakage, and no dry hits, just a very consistent performance.

i think we all go through this at some point as its not like smoking a cigarette were you know exactly what you getting on every drag, i think using eliquid has a lot more to do with our taste buds and is one of the reasons why i now tend to use a different tasting eliquid every day. youve all seen the advert for air fresheners that spray 3 different fragrances as if you only spray the one smell constantly you dont smell it in the end as you get used to it so i belive eliquid is the the same and you need to circulate your flavours regular or you dont taste it after a while. ry4 has always been my biggest bug bare as some days i absolutly love it and others i feel like throwing the whole stash in the bin.

I can relate completely to what you're saying Lynda . . . have you tried the Map/Arry Tanks with the LR clearo innards? They're really rather good and not horribly expensive to have a try of.

Mine tastes like that from time to time, some of the stuff I buy like attys are cheaply ade compared to others I have. I have one atty with steel fittings and other with brass, the steel one is crap. Another packed up on me after a week. Clearomisers leak from the bottom and are really bad quality. I'ts good in a way that i know I'm not alone when it comes to a period that nowt seems to work as it should.

I've recently had the lack of taste/vapour/leaking thing too! I switched to a drip tip and am still on it... back to normal now. Sean

I have dual core carto's, they aren't rocking my boat so far to be honest....
Have an Arry Tank that seems to have wasted me a lot of juice. I must be doing something seriously wrong.. . Have clearos that are just about ok.
My best vape so far is Sean's lethal weapon mod and a dual core thingy.
I just seem to waste so much juice messing about with things that are supposed to contain and vapourise juice and don't do the job for which they are intended....
Lol..I'm really grumpy now!

(((Lynda))) I just mainly use drip tips these days - you really can't lose much juice with them. OK, not so good for out & about though.
