    you can get wall mount USB adapters that you can plug into.. for things like iPods and such. I have one for my iPod, and got one (basically) for this eGo charger.. anything that scales down to 5v for the input should be fine for the pass through, I'd think.

    Best cleaning I've ever done (following Ping's steps with textbook results). My attys must have been gunked badly: I'd just gotten Bananas Foster & Atomic Cinnacide from TV, and before cleaning I could baely tell them apart for the weakness of the non-cinnamon ingredients. After cleaning, the bananas come through!

    I clean my 510 atty's once a week using Ping's method.

    Just saw your post. Wow!!!! These are some powerful mods you came up with. Do they get great vapor? How about th? Just how much juice is there in the base juice reservoir...looks like at least a pint.
    When will the mojofunk mod be available to purchase?

    I finally got around to trying this with the 510 atomizer I had been using for eight months.

    I had been cleaning it with a Coke bath every week and using it every other week, so it had been in business for four months. But the vapor was starting to get weak, and it was getting a burnt taste that cleaning didn't get rid of.

    SAVED ANOTHER ATOMIZER!!!

    It's working like new again, and I have a feeling that using this method my atomizers just might seriously last forever. I am going to vote this cleaning method as the best new thing in the next Vapy Awards.

    HP your method works really well! Resurrected 6 of 7 old atomizers and I am truly impressed. Thank you.

    This method is awesome. I have had a lot of success with this. I tweak the process here and there depending on what is going on with my atty, but this is probably the best atty maintenance method I've come across. I'm so glad I hadn't thrown out all my old 510 attys. Many of them are back in business!!!

    I don't think anyone will ever find a better method.
    This is practically perfect.

    Just revived a friend's 901 atty with this great method. As the battery was auto i just used my KR battery to dry and blind burn the 901 atty. As soon as it was dry i used the button pulse for 2 rounds of 30 secs. The atty is performing as a brand new one.

    this resurrection method is excellent, i used to do a similar cleaning before, 5 seconds dry-burns in a row after a quick wash, but now i understand it did clean the taste but not restore the coil perfectly.
    This method involve more burning-dissolving of the gunk and if you mantain the 'orange' glow by pulsing the button the atty won't pop.
    It's amaizing, thank you so much for your very useful post.
    this is pure genius.
