How to clean atomizer

[LuckyCharm]

atomizers can be brought back to life but for how long varies..at the moment there made as disposable personal imo... i don't use any cleaning technique's any more... when the atomizer stops working i replace with a new one.

Thanks for the feedback, Kit. I guess if I'm going to treat them as disposable (which I am inclined to do), it wouldn't hurt anything to try some warm water and detergent, good rinse, maybe follow up with vinegar and drip dry. That seems safest to me. If it doesn't work, oh well....

Cheers,

By all means there no harm in giving it a try

Okie here goes...
I only read about 20 pages into this thread. I was thinking about trying to clean my atomizers in Everclear in a ultra-sonic jewelry cleaner. I'm not sure if the UK users can get this stuff but it seems to me once the cleaning "cycle" is complete the drying time would be VERY short since the Everclear dries up quickly. Also I have the cheap and crappy (from what I've read) Smoking Everywhere ones, fromwhat I can tell they are the RN4082's I have 4 batteries, 2 atomizers, and I recently stopped buying the cartridges from them and bought 2 bottles of "Juice" from PureSmoker.com, which I must say is going/vaping VERY well! I've just been re-filling the emptys/empties with the "Juice". Just thought I'd chime in my thoughts here for my "FIRST POST!" hehe

I realy dont think tha the liquid has that much impurity but i did a little test for thouse ppl that r worried about it..

cut a analog filter in a querter of its size put it in the cart an thats all (i use the dipping method so i dont use the insert of the cart)

yeah, I was thinking about the same.

What can happened if the atomizer is dirty, less smoke?

I don't get any smoke at all, could it be a dirty atomizer? I was cleaning it with vinegar, but it made no difference.

The instructions with the pipe is to cross the two studs with metal for about 10-15 seconds. This turns on the light and smoke appears coming out of the atomizer. This seems to cure that burnt taste. I really prefer the pipe to e-cigarettes.

i cant get through all the pages... has anyone tried lemon juice soaks,
the sugar free cola and vodka(and congac yummy taste) soak did a decent job. but lemon juice is much more acidic..... doesnt it clean a penny too?

i revers blow thru mine with no cart in.. it heats up the coil more than normal and burns the crud of.. apart from that a straight forward rinse under a running tap seems to work as well as anything.. but i am convince these things just wont last long whatever u do with them.. in essence they are disposable items and need replacing every so often.. how often depends on how much use they get.. some just die completely but all produce less vapour after xxx number of puffs..

OOOOHHHHH I been sucking em.. (er that didn't come out right!! )

That is exactly what the manufacturer's want us to do.
Every part of these e-cigs are designed for a short life span.
1) The Rechargable battery in general. (I've always hated those things. Charge for 8 hours to get about 2 hours use) Will need to be replaced.
2)The battery charger it'self will need to be replaced.
3)The Atomiser will need to be replaced.
4)The cartridges will need to be replaced.(but we knew that anyway)
No part of the e-cig is built to last for more than about 3 months. (if that)
In fact they are quite shoddily and cheaply manufactured.
They are made this way because the Manufacturer's are making them to make lot's of money.
They are not making them for the good of our Health.
It's called Business. If they designed them to last they would not make as much money.
Your not supposed to wash it,your supposed to replace it.

That's just my opinion after using the e-cig for 2 weeks without smoking a real cigarette. In 2 weeks i have 1 dead battery, 2 dying battery charges and an Atomiser which won't give me enough smoke to get a fly high.

It's the old story. "Getta ya Tootsie Frutti Ica Cream"

Hell that sounds like Ford and GM

Has anyone come up with a method to use the e-juice without the e-cig parts?????

I'm sure other methods can be used, hense no need to buy replacement parts.
