30 days and counting on my atty for the penstyle (KB). Use heavy and pretty much exclusively with diy and other eliquid. Blow out and leave to dry usually at night. Only real precaution I've taken is to keep carts topped. Just got some atomizers from beci today and really like the draw but, will probably save for backup.

On a side note: has anyone done a mod for home use? I don't really care about the size since it will primarily be used at home. This way the protables can be used when you're out (at work or play) and a big heavy duty, easy to clean, replacable parts can be used at home. I envision something no bigger than a can of redbull. This way you can open the atty and clean the crust that builds up inside. If a part fails then pop the thing open, pull out the part, replace it then vape away.

Jangler try the modders forum

My original 901 white atty is still going after 172 days, tho' the vapour is now getting a bit weak. I fear my trusty friend will soon depart to atty heaven . I have had other attys, that I used for different flavours go after only a week. My first black atty still going after 150 days. I generally have 3 different flavoured PV's on the go, depending on my mood.
All told I have gone through 4 attys, if I include my original which is on it's last legs

The one atomizer that came with my Kick "Lil white" still working after about 6 weeks with heavy use the first 3 weeks and light use the past 3 weeks. I ended up buying a VK in case it died (Jane's been out of stock since I ordered it). Does anyone know what atomizer's might be compatible? I really want to keep it working as a backup (especially since supplies are getting tough to come by).

I've had the same atomizer for my supermini since I got it back in early Feb. I never clean it, but it does clean itself fairly often. I have set it upright to drain a few times but not regularly. The only issue I have is the charge life on both batteries has dropped dramatically to 1-3 hours instead of all day.

Well Mr Hoyle, I think that you're doing rather well if that is your only issue. Batteries die over time - it all depends on how often and when you charge them. If you've had your batteries since Feb without other issues - congrats! That's about as good as it gets - until you get a usb passthrough!

It's been over two weeks, maybe close to three now since I've gotten my 901 and 801. The 901 atty has never been cleaned and it's still working like brand new (and this kit is being abused the most). The 801 atties I've had to clean and alternate, however (I switch between 2 atties as a result). No atomizer has broken down yet.
