Is Ultrasonic cleaner necessary?

[Botakkk]

Just wondering about your take of a ultrasonic cleaner

If you have a lot of tank to clean and want to use all your tank at once then get one. But if you only use one tank per month. No point. Save money for juice or something

Eliquid doesn't spoil the way food does because germs and bacteria can't live in it. Some flavorings could be more sticky than others. Soaking in alcohol should do a good job of cleaning. May be some small diameter bottle or tube brushs would help. I use rda's exclusively. I rinse in plain water, may be do a little brushing with an old tooth brush.

I recently purchase one and will be collecting dust...
I much prefer the good old way with old toothbrush and mama lemon.

Any suggestion of cleaning and taking care of the vapor? I don't have one for now, but wish to learn so that I know how to take care of it when I have one.

An ultrasonic cleaner is not necessary, but it is convenient.

It is especially useful for new atomizers. With dish soap, a splash if alcohol, & ultrasound, all traces of machine oil disappear.

Useful yes, necessary no. Electric toothbrush soap and or ketchup works for me

I bought 1 since its cheap..like $20+ but still in the box. Not only can use to clean tank but your glasses, metal watch straps etc.

 

[xtinct]

Yes.

Once again. Ultrasonic cleaner are very efficient and effective at cleaning away grime. You can just dump your collection of atty into cleaning solution of your choice. But to me, the money can be used to buy more atty as I feel that cleaning manually is good enough. To each and his own.
