Hi everyone! This is current list of steps involved with cleaning my Aspire nautilus. This information has been compiled using several forums, and sourcing from many different posts, so it is not a definitive step-by-step instruction set. I'm looking for tips, suggestions, and modifications to these steps to produce the best possible non-alcohol based cleaning method. If anybody suspects that a step is dangerous, or may hard the components, please notify me!
1) Place all components into a wide mug, fill with boiling water, preferably from a kettle. Do not microwave.
Notes:
- Do not dry burn nautilus heads.
- Alternatives to vinegar exist, such as denture tablets, alcohol, even Coke (supposedly!), but I'm looking at a primarily vinegar based solution, as it is cheaper and more readily available for me, at least.
I would like to make a special thank you to LR40K for his help!
1) Place all components into a wide mug, fill with boiling water, preferably from a kettle. Do not microwave.
- Make sure that all the components are cover by the water.
2) Place components into cup of 1:1 water/vinegar solution. Soak for a variable amount of time, depending on e-liquid strength/thickness, etc.
- Minimum or maximum time is unknown [input please].
3) Repeat step 1, replacing the water until it is somewhat odorless.- So far, I have not been able to produce an entirely odorless water. Still investigating.
4) Dry components. They need to be entirely dry.- Speeding this up would be ideal. I have a feeling that an oven even at low temperatures would ruin the heads. Blowdrying should be fine.
