hdryder Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 I got my tornado on thursday the first atty I used works GREAT but the second one I get very little vapor out of it . Is it bad or do I just need to break it in??? Any Ideas ??? Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christopher Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 Probably just needs to be broken in. 510 atomizers usually take about 20 minutes or so to break in sometimes a day or so to really start to kick our some vapor. With that said however, every so often you'll get a bad one that just doesn't vape well. Just how it is in the world of vaping Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kitsune Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 before you declare it dead or dying, try draining it. use the corner of papertowel or kleenex, push into open end of the atty and let sit for 10-15 min. add a couple drops of liquid to the atty and see if it vapes any better--if not it may well be a dud. I now use a multimeter(if I can do it, anybody can) to double check the voltage if I am not sure. has really helped me determine the viability of some ify atty's. you can contact the company you got it from and see about returning it if it is a dud.

stubear62 Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 Hi, Since you say its a Tornado, just shoot an email to TW (they sell Tornados) and let them know you had gotten a DOA (Dead/Dud on Arrival) and have them replce it. Good luck and let us know how it goes.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brian1g Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 I had a similar thing happen to me with the atomizer that came with my ego. I had a really hard time breaking it in. I vaped it for a day and a half or so before I decided it was just a bad atty. It never seemed to get warm enough to make a good vapor. I put it to the side for a week and gave it another try and it worked perfectly lol. I agree with kitsun, Blow it out well and put a piece of kleenex or paper towel in it to wick out the old juice.

hdryder Posted March 14, 2010 Author Share Posted March 14, 2010 If I check it with a volt meter what should it read ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nana Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 I believe it should read 2.2ohms. I haven't checked any of mine yet, but from what others have said, that's what it should be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
