Atomizer Resurrection, Pt 1

[40bikes]

Kin, I just measured (eyeball) where the base ff the bridge on my 4081 atty is from outside the tube and bent my paper clip prybar so that it wouldn't go in past that point. worked great, I'm going to go steam clean the carpet LOL. Thanks Jaxx, seems to work on the 4081 model as well. bikes

I don't know who was the first to suggest Crest Health-Pro mouthwash for atty-soaks, but I have to say that I have two 510 attys that were so clogged they were going to die from overheating. Two hours in CHP, then long rince with hot water and blowing out and drying, and they were better...but they improved even more so after another day! Now they are like new again, and its clear my stash of attys are going to live much longer than before. These were clogged, not cold. Cold is dead, gone, history...unless we can figure out how to rebuild them.

So a big tip of the hat to whoever the Crest person is. Genius! Nice to have a backup when PGA soaks don't help! THANKS!!

Just a confirmation that this works very well for 801 as well as 510 atty's .. thanks ever so much.

I have an M401 now so this method is not useful for me right now but I plan on getting an SD or SB that uses a 901 or 801 atty so this will come in handy eventually.
Thanks

This fix is genius.

I nominate this thread to be a sticky. Anyone second?

Here, Here! Jaax truly is a BE112 atty savior!

As an aside, I wasn't successful with a paperclip..too flimsy I think, but I found a sewing machine needle that works a charm! Dad always said "Son, you need the right tool for the job..."

Wow! I just tried this on an atty that was functioning, but I wasn't happy with it and it's amazing. I did it with a large paper clip that I straightened out. I was a little worried when I felt a significant CLICK sound. I thought for sure that I hit the coil, but it fired up like it never vaped before. The trick is to make sure you are entering the right spots. This post definitely deserves a bump.

This is the most valuable thread I've ever come across in all my time here - mods, PLEASE sticky it! Every newb should be reading this.

The Jaaxx method is quite simply the single best atomizer "trick" in existance, and will save people tons of money and frustration over the long haul. Works like a dream for 801's and likely several other models as well.

Can be used on both new and used atties as req'd, whether a misalignment issue or a clogged hole.

Thanks to the Jaaxx method I am now keeping old style 901 attys vapable for months. I just wish the new style attys could use this method too, so far I have not figured out a way to make it happen. If anyone knows of a way to prolong the life of the new kind I would love to hear how to do it.

I just saw another atomizer resurrection thread and was reminded of this one. Jaaxx grinned when I showed him that people were still benefiting from the Jaaxx Method in 2010!

Thanks so much for all the kind words! (from Jaaxx)
