Me three! I have 3 flavors that don't seem to work well with my LR510's - Vanilla, Malty Toffee, and Maple. Occasionally I get a good hit, but mostly little vapor and TH. So I've put them aside until I get some new equipment.
I've tried the Cisco 306's, but for some reason I cant get them to work right. I switched recently to Ikenvape 510's from the Cisco because I got a metallic taste from the Ciscos. So maybe I'll try out the Ikenvape 306's.
I always remove the driptip before drippping with 510's. When dripping on a 306, do you do this? Also, how do you prime them? With the 510's, I fill it with PG up to the bridge and let sit for 15 minutes to soak. Then I blow out and drip. Works really well. I used to have a lot of trouble getting new atties broken in and would typically burn the wick early on because it wasn't primed properly. Anyway, any suggestions for using 306's would be good.
If it's a Cisco, theres no primer... any other vendor, I rinse it out with hot water thoroughly... rinse, blow out, rinse blow out, etc... then let it sit overnight... or in front of a hair dryer on low for 8-10 min.
A clean and dry 306 will take 7-8 drops... when the taste starts to change, add 2-3 drops. I usually do a "partial" de-wicking... ONLY remove the portion of the wick that lives right underneath the bridge and blocks your view of the coils. I usually pry it out with a needle or tweezers and then cut it with a razor, being careful not to pull from the bottom... only from the top. This leaves the wick that runs through the coils and a little bit sticking out on either side. Be VERY careful not to remove the wick that runs through the coils... if you pull this out, the atty is basically ruined.
to change flavors, just blow it out.... then add 5 drops of the new flavor and you're ready to go. It takes some trial and error, but eventually you'll figure out how much juice it can hold, how many hits you can get, and when to fill it back up. Also, I DONT remove the drip tip. If you get the standard plastic urethane DT, there is more than enough room to get drops down in there.
Every few days, I'll rinse these with hot water... then a quick dry-burn to make sure the coils are clean... then let them sit overnight on my computer fan. If they get gunked up, search for "my atty resurrection method"...works wonders on 306s... just be careful... and only use it when the performance drops off severely...
Cisco 306s dont necessarily need to be cleaned out that often... but I do it occasionally to keep the flavor up. Blow it out thoroughly, 5 drops, ready to go... or blow it out, rinse it out, dry burn, air dry... and it's fresh and ready to go in the morning.
Ikenvape 3.5 306s are fantastic at 6v... and Cisco 1.5s are fantastic at 3.7
hope that helps!
