If it worked after a week of draining it wasn't destroyed. No reason to try and vape water, but water IS the universal solvent and is good for cleaning. You just have to blow it out and let it drain and dry before using it.

When I clean attys I do a final rinse with a little water mixed with about 20% glycerin then dry it. The little bit of residual glycerin leaves it primed for wicking e-juice so there is no break in period or bad taste.


I've had one atty fail in over 40 days and it failed because I kept it too hot for too long with a 5 volt mod. It burned open and was done.
