510 issues?

[gaz140]

So, I loved my Imist so much that I bought my mum a 510 starter kit thing.

Its charged up, it's filled up, it's producing vapour however there is no flavour, taste or throat hit.

Any ideas?

Odd one... does it use cartomizers or cartridges? is it available online?

If it wasn't the juice vaporizing, you would get a nasty burnt taste....

Carto, it's this one http://www.ecigwizard.com/shop/en/electronic-cigarette-starter-kits/186-510-get-started-kit.html


Theres no taste at all whatsoever

What juice are you using?

 

[gaz140]

18mg sweet tobacco from wiz mix to get her started, tried it in my Imist and had no problem at all

Make sure the cartomizer is good and soaked...any safety pins lying around? you might need to poke it a few times all the way to the bottom, if there is any air bubbles inside, it could be causing dry drags.
Can you hear the carto sizzle when you fire it up?
Also, it is a small battery, it could just be that it is not putting enough out, try another cartomiser.

Ok, I'll try another carto. I'll also try adding more liquid and poking and let you know in five minutes

Yep, a good poking never fails
A lot of people have similar problems. Perhaps I should get together with the mods and make a sticky post..

"troubleshooting the 510" sticky would probably be very handy. I'm gonna leave it on charge for a few hours and see if that helps. The light turned green before but now I've plugged it in again it's turned red again so will wait for it to charge up again.

Yeah, I am not a big fan of the small penstyles, even though thats what I started out with. Most people upgrade from them really quickly!
