I don't know how to clean 510-T attys (I don't know if the strike plate needs to be removed) but hopefully someone knows.

I recommend you also try some 3 ohm Boge 510 cartomizers from Liberty-Flights.co.uk - those are the best way to keep flavors totally separate. they have limited lives (I can get about 7-10 days use out of each) but they are good for flavors you don't want in your atomizer. They are also great as a backup if you ever have trouble with your atomizers.

I rinse them thoroughly with hot water and blow them through several times, then flush with a little plain PG and blow it out again (this also leaves the atty somewhat primed afterward). This is only for when I store them, though, when I'm using one regularly I'll just blow it out in between flavors and/or vape through whatever remaining flavor is left in it.

Another option is to just vape through a cart of un-flavored juice. By the time you get done with the cart, the old flavor is pretty much non-existent


Everyone has their own methods for cleaning tank attys. I've never found the need to remove the spike plate or dry burn them, myself. The two above methods have worked just fine for me and run less risk of damaging the atty IMHO

Soak them in 90% isopropyl or even vodka will work. Every few min scoop some into the atty and let it run through. After 20 ~ 30 min rinse with hot water, blow it out and let it dry over night.

The instructions I got when I bought mine were to boil water, put in a bowl, put in the attys and let them soak for 15-20 minutes. Rinse them out in hot water, blow them out and then let them dry for 24 hours. I did this and it worked for me, aside from the 24 hours. Took maybe 30 or before they were completely dry. Good Luck!

I use the boiling method too but i do it slightly differently. I throw my atties into the cold water and boil it together with the water. I take them out when i see boiling bubbles, about 10mins. After which i'll let them sit in the sun for a few days to dry out. When they are ready to use, i prime the atty with 2-3 drops of liquid and let it soak in for 10mins.

Does the trick well but not so good for heavily gunked atties. The alcohol/vodka cleaning method will be much better i think but i couldn't be bothered because i don't wana waste any spirits. Not that expensive to get new atties anyway.

Another thing i'm gonna try soon is using those 20 bucks ultrasonic cleaners.

That's what I did. I use the isopropyl but if you use vodka you could probably use it immediately. If I wanted to use it immediately, I just rinsed it with hot water.

I've always just soaked them in vodka. Put them in a glass overnight, then lay them on a paper towel the next day until they are dry. I usually keep enough attys so you can have extras while cleaning the others.

I can't help but feel that this is a terrible waste of vodka!
