Atomizer failure

[a2dcovert]

Well I just had my first real atomizer failure. Was vaping real good and it just suddenly stopped producing vapor. At first I thought the battery had gone dead but no, changing the battery had no effect. I put the ohm meter on it and got a reading of 30,000 ohms. That much resistance will stop 3 volts dead in it's tracks. Guess there was some king of mechanical breakdown. Shucks, now I have killed 2 atomizers in 5 months.

Stuff happens.

2 in 5 months is pretty damn good...only been vaping a little more than 3 weeks and had my first one die today.

Well I've now lost 2 801 attys...tried the boiling suggestion posted elsewhere on the forum and let them dry overnight. Now neither is working and a bunch of the paint was left in the pan. Good thing I have a couple spares.
