401 through the wash machine.. still works!

[legbuh]

My wife accidentally put my 401 through the wash. It was a front loader, so that may make a difference.

Battery charged up fine, and atomizer still works. I'm still on the original 2 batters and I have 4 atts I cycle. Been about 5 months now.

Out of interest, which brand 401?

And the question is - does it performs better after washing?

You (your wife) may accidentally found the best way to clean the attys!!!

I washed an extra battery that I had stuck in my pants pocket and it worked fine after it dried out. It was an auto battery.

Not sure of the brand. Got it from e-cig supply.

As for cleaning the atty, soaking for 2-3 days in rubbing alcohol really makes them come back to life for me! And since running out of my favorite flavor of juice (cappacino) I've made my own blend of coffee, vanilla, small amount of chocolate and a few drops of double mint. mmmm...
