So, I'm curious about some of the maintenance habits of your 510 owners. How often are you cleaning your carts? How often are you cleaning your attys?

I'm talking about how often you take out the filling and rinse it out, how often you give the empty (no filling) cart a good cleaning, etc, etc.

I've been vaping off my 510 for a solid week now. I've been using one cart the whole time which I cleaned thoroughly when I first got it (didn't like the prefilled e-liquid), and then once again about 2 days ago. The atty I cleaned out when i first got it and that's it.

I use a cart for about a week,but have gone longer. Might pull out the filling mid week,give it a quick rinse,roll it dry,and put it back in.They are cheap.
I dont really mess with the attys unless they start to mess up (other than blowing them out on occasion). I havent had much lucking truely bringing one back from the dead (or near dead).

I agree with you on the cartridge. I usually don't do anything with the carts unless I notice a wicking problem or see that the top is getting stuck together.

The atomizers I use until they seem to drop off in vapor production. The I will soak them in alcohol for a day or 2, then blow them out real well, rinse them out with water real good, blow them out real good again, and let air dry for a while. Don't let them stay dry too long. Drop a couple of drops of liquid on the bridge, install a full cartridge and vape.

This is what I do, others may differ but it works for me. I usually keep only 2 atomizers in rotation and switch back and forth from time to time. Keep a wet cartridge on used atomizers to prevent them from drying out.
