I hear ya, believe me that juice is not the norm what i have been mixing and or buying is the 24mg and I have been thinking of cutting that down too where i Vape pretty much constantly so I figured if i cut it down maybe to 18mg and see how that goes. I was surprised when last night i picked up my LR T atty after cleaning it out and letting it sit because i didn't seem to be getting the flavor i was looking for an I filled up a tank of flu cured I had sitting around for 2-3 weeks popped it on my 900mAh batt and took a big Ole toke and was very pleasantly surprised at the flavor i got out of it. I think the problem was I was not waiting long enough between tokes the first couple hit were really good but as I started hitting it more I noticed it was getting that dull flavor again so I sat it down grabbed my mod took a few tokes off of that,then went back to the LR T and it had good flavor again, so I guess it takes longer to wick up the juice, I checked the wick out and it is even with the lowest point on the spike, so what do you all think is it because it takes longer to wick up the juice?

That's part of why I keep 4 or 5 going in rotation, so I can take a hit or two off one, then set it down and move on to another, let it wick up for 5 minutes before I hit it again.

There does seem to be a correlation between length of service and wicking speed. The darker and sweeter juices also greatly effect how quickly the poor performance point is reached.
I've found that once an atomiser has a slow wicking rate and requires a rest between vapes it can only be saved by thorough hot tap water cleaning,possibly alcohol soak(PGA or Vodka) and dry burning the coil.
I have been able to restore innumerable atties and CE2 cartos using these methods and the only casualties of the dry burn abuse have been four "burners":1-801,1-510,2-CE2s.
I have even successfully dry burned a "pillow stuffing" carto from which I'd removed the filler. The original 4081 atomiser which was my first vaper lasted 10 months "in rotation", as Rez recommends, and it failed in normal service not during a cleaning cycle.
On dry burning I only pulse it for 4sec. on so I don't get into the electronics duty cycle of the battery. When smoke from the atty ceases and sizzle is still present the incineration of coil crud is complete. There will actually be a fine ash covering the coil which you can observe if the coil is exposed. Rinse and recharge with juice and your vaping quality should be near "normal". YMMV
