Am I really that hard on atomizers?

[justincase]

Also one of the main drawbacks of cartomizers is that they are not really meant to be refilled. I am poor and buying a ton of cartomizers would be costly. I would much rather have a properly functioning atomizer any day. (properly functioning is defined as lasting more than 1.5 months)

Can someone help me with something? I am very new to vaping and my first, (and only) PV purchase was for the Vapor King. It uses cartomizers and from what I have read and seen on youtube, they can be refilled. Up to as many as 10 times if your lucky. Ok. Sounds simple enough. Where I am getting confused is with the 3 piece PV's. You can refill the cartridges, but for how many times? Forever? And then you have atty's that only last for a while. What is the cost comparisons for atty's and cartridges in relation to the replacement cost of cartomizers?

It also helps if you take off the cartridge, grab the e-cig by the battery with your index finger and thumb, and shake it with the atomizer pointing down. This has the same effect as a dry burn and throws away any excess liquid in the atomizer. Most non-working 510 atomizers are not usually broken, they are just overloaded with e-juice and need to be cleaned
