Default Auto Cleaning Frequency

has anyone else noticed a difference in the frequency of the auto cleaning cycle in their ecigs?

it used to be rare for me to see a cleaning cycle in my older devices,but now with newer devices it seems to happen every few days...even though they are the same models from the same supplier.

im just wondering if manufacturers have reduced the number of puffs between cleans...to make it more efficient or improve performance or something....or maybe i just got a weirdly behaving batch last time.

Did you notice more on a specific model ecig (ie: penstyle, mini dse901, etc...) or just generally overall?

I haven't noticed anything as of late as far as extra cleaning cycles go Speaking in reference to my penstyle.

oh yeah,sorry...its specifically the RN4072 im referring to...the penstyle like pillbox,smokester and Meltrex sells...

i just wondered if had changed as an industry standard.

its strange,because im not vaping any more than i used to before...when it only happened once in a blue moon.

That's what I said in another thread Darcy!

I remember when you said that yours had self-cleaned and it was like a 'once-in-a-lifetime' event.

But mine seems to do it at least once a week and I can't think what else it could be doing besides self-cleaning.

sounds very familiar! i have learned to hate those days. after its done, i drip frantically trying to get rid of the taste.

haven't noticed a changed in the frequency, but new generations of atomizers/penstyles are coming out daily. i think they were on generation 4 last time I checked.

hope this helps!

Apparently once a week = once in a lifetime for some of these things. You're just lucky...
