So, I got my Artemas Locking 510 DCT carto tank in the mail today. It came with a pre-punched, dual-coil XL cartomizer with a grooved bottom so it locks into the grooved bottom cap. I filled the tank without priming the carto because I figured, since it was a punched carto, it would soak up the e-liquid while sitting in the tank and prime itself. This has proven to not be the case. When I take a puff, it tastes burnt and is producing a minimal amount of vapor. It's a LR (1.5ohm) and I have my PV set to around 3.5v, so I know that's not the problem.
Is this just a problem of a bum carto, or is it because I didn't prime it via "condom method"? If it is because I didn't prime it, can I just take out the carto, prime it and put it back in the tank? Or is it permanently ruined. Lastly, I have some XL Boge cartos lying around. Can I use those in the Artemas? My concern is that, since they don't have a grooved bottom to lock into the grooved bottom cap of the Artemas, it will be a messy ordeal...
Here's where I got the Artemas, by the way: Artemas Locking 510 DCT, Clear
Please help!
