I have some information for you all.
I just rebuilt a cCell using the good casing parts from the one I cut apart, The outer shell from the boiled one, and the Ni200 ceramic and coil that came out so white and good looking from the cleaning attempt.
One of the legs had broken off, so I soldered on a wire taken from an extension cord that was close to the same AWG size, but slightly larger. I cut a strip of Japanese Cotton to wrap around it, and pulled it into two thinner strips. I started the wrap beside the solder joint, putting the fluffy side out, so it would be at the juice holes. I wrapped it around two times and cut it just before reaching the solder joint again. I rolled it between my finger and thumb a few times to get any slack out and installed it in the good Inner Chamber.
In case the solder joint decided to short to the Inner Chamber wall, I made that leg Ground in the Grommet. I put the Plus Pin on the other leg and pushed all of that into the outer shell, with the Silicone Seal already inside.
The Vaporesso Target Mod reads it at 0.15Ω and it works TC Mode at 400°F, but after a few vapes, I had to keep cranking the Temp up with each vape to get good flavor, but the vapor was extremely thick. When I had to set it to 600°F, I put it on another TC Mod. That one reads 0.19Ω. It works nicely at 30W and 500°F. I just put it on yet another TC Mod that reads it as 0.17Ω. When I set it to 30W and 500°F, it works as well as the 2nd, but a little hotter. I set it to 25W and 450°F and it works nicely, but I'm getting a little gurgling, so I'm putting it back on the 2nd Mod and letting them both cool so I can lock the resistance. That might be effecting the flavor.
The flavor was not as good after a few vapes, but that could have been because the Ohms were not locked on the Vaporesso and the 2nd TC Mod. The 3rd one seems to lock that by itself. There is no way to manually lock the Ohms. Once it has cooled and I can lock the Ohms, I'll continue to use it on the 2nd Mod.
But even after all that Ni200 coil and ceramic tube have been through, it is performing and blowing big clouds again.
I think this cleaning procedure may work very well when done properly. I'd love to try this on a fresh cCell, or even a used one that needs to be revived for the first time. If not, there's always Efferdent.
