Bought some of these in the GB. Am using an sr one at the moment & I have to say so far I'm not impressed.
Tried it on my LT with pretty rubbish results. Now trying it on my riva style batteries & still pretty rubbish.
Quite a tight draw, hardly any vapour & certainly no throat hit.
Is this normal, or am I potentially using a duff one?
Also, how do you rinse them out?
I have been filling this one with a spikey thing to avoid getting juice into the air tube thing. Must have re-filled about 3 times, so thought the vaping experience would've improved.

Hmmm I get loads of vapour from mine admittedly I don't get fantastic throat hit but that doesn't bother me too much as I get really good flavour from them. I'd open another one and see if it's the same, if that one works then I reckon the first one might be a duff

The other thing is the "vaping position". I find they need to be held more horizantal than a carto, and I also roll them about a bit to keep the wick thingies wet

I really only have VG juice gordy. Although I did by a PG RY4 to try out. Although not sure I would risk filling a vision ego with it in case I don't like the flavour.
Yeah karma I will let you know how the lr ones fair.

i used 100%pg and getting same disapointment with mine. really tight draw and not much vapour and no flavour. only had one fill though but got another from hc so hopefully this one will be different.
i got some ce4+ a month or so ago and theyre heaps better....i was initially disapointed with them as they way to wide for egos and look a little big but really airy draw and nice vape and flav.

Stardusts do not work well on RIVA batteries because the battery connector is fatter than a ego or ego passthrough making the draw very tight.. Try your LR stardusts on your modded SDK and you may be pleasantly suprised.. You can change flavours quite easily..Dry burn and wash it out with hot water..

I did see on a youtube review that these things need to broken in , I am however getting really good flavour and TH on mine using a 510 / ego adaptor on my LT at 4 volts , must say I am pleasantly surprised and hope my others work as well as this one , juice is from HC and doesn't give vg/pg content on the bottle
Edit: I bought the 2.5 - 2.9 ohm version

They don't need to be broken in Storm..Just need to give the wick a little bit of time to prime by lying it on it's side..Like maybe about 2 minutes..If you fill by dripping along the wall where the wick is you can vape straightaway as it will prime during the fill.
The biggest problem with these is that the tubes crack..

Hey don't shoot the messenger I'm only relaying what was said in a tube review I filled mine and it vaped straight away macca , maybe I was lucky , but as for being broken in , I would certainly say the flavour has improved throughout the course of today , 1st time I've used one btw
