Round Three : Testing the e-liquids ingredients seperately:
Part 1. Glycerine
(click a thumbnail for bigger image)
btw there was a Round Two (15 ml flavoured PG liquid):
but the wire snapped due to the coil expansion with the hard build-up, sigh.
Anyway moving over to Joye510 atomizers, which run hotter than 901's,
(taking 850 mA at 3V rather than 500 mA).
New coil:
After vaping 28 ml of plain Glycerine (VG) over 3 days
(actual recipe was 30 ml glycerine + thinned with 4 ml deionised water):
This build-up is definately softer than round two at the top.
Not decided yet which way to test cleaning.
Thinking I might try a sequence of low to high probability of success:
1 water wash
2 alcohol wash
3 vinegar soak
3 lemon juice soak
3 coke soak
6 Heat wire at 1200 mA, or at least bright cherry red.
7 hydrogen peroxide 'boil-in-place'
or should I just go for the kill (i.e. 6 & 7 only) ?
or maybe 7 first, then 6 & 7 to see if it gets any cleaner.
I used to be indecisive, but now I'm not so sure.
