I like them especially when driving.
If you get them be sure to give them a good prime for trouble free use.

I only use DCT's.

They go all day (and into the next) without needing to be topped up.
No leakage issues, I made the mistake of buying some CE3's a couple of weeks ago just to try them out, whilst they vape very well I wouldn't trust them in my pocket whereas with the DCT's I've never had a leak.
It's true that the cartos are a bit like playing roulette as to whether it's going to be a popping/crackling good one or a hissing bad one but at the price of them I don't mind too much. I do find that if one in a pack is bad the other is too so maybe it's just someone in the factory that needs to go back to carto school.

I find with the new 2 holed cartos you don't have to be so OCD about the initial prime as long as you leave it overnight to soak before vaping. Also I don't need to top up the carto anymore which I used to do every fill of the tank with the single holed ones.

Im a firm believer in the dct. Once I got the first one primed I never looked back. Gave away all the tornado and ego-c attys I had. I just got in some of the new torpedo chrome clearomizers but that was mainly just to try them and I like the drip tips. But all in all cant go wrong with a dct

Definately worth it, do it.

I started out with a liberated EgoC then bought my own and tried DCTs pretty much for the sake of it but also because the other half had started using clearamisers or some such(see thru cone things ) and the flavours were coming through considerably differently.

Anyway DCT bought, delivered and properly primed on a 1000mah battery and it's really hard to go wrong, I find the flavours more pronounced, in so much as with the DCT I pick up bits that I seem to miss with the Ego.. Might just be me.

Be warned though shiny syndrome can bite if your not careful you'll be colour coding your flavours before you know what's happened.

Enjoy!

How long would you say best to prime them?

I have had a couple of them that have gave me a burnt taste from the start. But when I get one that works I don't think there is another product that comes close.

I prime with 20/25 drops then leave for 5 mins.

Adam I just do 4 - 5 drops a time, dripping In rotation in quarters I do this twice stand it up and leave for a minute. Then same again with another minute rest and keep repeating until I get a small amount of juice weeping out of each hole on the cart. Once weeping I place it inside the tank and fill. Fingers crossed no problems to date no burnt taste and works very well.
I no others with much more experience than me do theirs differently but you will find a way which best suits you.

Do mine with a syringe and usually get at least 1.2 - 1.4 mls into it before it starts to leach from the holes at the bottom, so I don't think 20-25 drops is enough.

I may not use a syringe but I definitely use more than 20 - 30 drops

Ive never really counted but it takes me a long time to fill one. I put a lot of drops in it then let it sit for a while. Then do it again. Then once I feel it is full, I fill the tank and let it sit over night. Might be kinda slow but it works for me and havent had any trouble.

I don't count drops. I slowly add drops while rotating the carto, avoiding the centre hole. Once the juice stops going down quickly I leave it in a upright position for 5 or 10 mins and then have a look to see if the filler is wet on top or white. If it's gone white again I add more drops then leave again. Again, if it still looks wet after 5 to 10 mins I then leave it alone and fill the tank if it's gone white again I add some more. I then leave it in the filled tank FOR AT LEAST AN HOUR (preferably overnight) to allow the juice to soak all through the filler and around the coils. This is the key I think as I've never had a burnt taste.

And me, not a counter either, but I drip juice in till it is almost sitting on the wadding, then leav for a few ins and do again.... After that though it's fill the tank and vape,....which is working just fine for me

Well, I whined at first that I had some attys that didn't vape well from the start, and was all too ready to blame the atomiser but to be fair, I suspect I didn't prime the carto well enough... I've not had any bad ones in a while... new user error when I started using them I'm sure but following the advice and what lots of other people have said, priming it to the point of well and truly sodden must have worked for me because I haven't had one with burnt taste since the first couple of weeks using them... I don't have the organisation to prime a night in advance but I should lol... I'll try to get them done and soaked for a while in future...
