Priming/Flooding is where you saturate the wick of the atty, and flush out the factory primer prior to first use. You should do this after every cleaning as well.

Stand the Atty up on a napkin, threads down, and put 5-10 drops in atty. Wait 5 mins. There should be a ring or pool of liquid that the napkin has absorbed. Put the atty on the battery of your choice, vape, enjoy! After that, place 3 drops in anytime flavor/vapor production decreases or you get a burnt taste.

Vaping with a dry atty is a sure-fire way to kill it. Keep it wet, and it will last a long time.

If i add a little drop of water to my e-liquid will it might make it less harsh? any suggestions on harshness. Also it seems like using my brand new tankomizer or cartomizer it seems way harsh compared to dripping. And yes i did clean both cart and tankomizer before using. Should it be like that? Im just looking for a smooth flavor that doesn't have a big throat hit. Do you think the water idea will work?

Also if i get a lower nicotine level e-liquid would that bring down that harshness of the throat hit. Im not sure if its because my inferno and attys are so new that they need to broken in, or if most e-liquids are that harsh. please help by answering this question and the ones above. Thankyou :)

The two best methods to reduce throat irritation, is to drink water (not soda, coffee, etc.) before vaping, and reduce nic. Other methods will also reduce flavor and don't help as much.

yes cutting down the nicotine will help lessen the TH and the harshness of it. Also adding more VG to the juice will smooth it out a bit.
