I am very new to e cigs and am going through atomizers like water. About every 10 days, they get hard to draw, start getting hot, and then stop working. Somebody out there help. Am I supposed to be cleaning, doing something I dont' know about? I got the smoking everywhere gold and am really wondering if I should have picked another model.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I really like the ecigs but am very frustrated.

Thanks!!

Sorry to say but smoke everywhere has a terrible rep on this forum. I see more negative reviews than any other device.

You should clean your atomizers. I blow mine out each night from the hole side with a can of air duster and then let sit on a paper towel. I clean them in Brew Rite coffee cleaner about once a week for about 4-5 hours and then rinse very well with boiling water and let sit till dry.

When you buy your second device, do yourself a favor and get a bigger battery manual switch device if you would rather have much less hassle with your vaping. And BTW, since starting to use the Screwdriver 3 months ago, I haven't had one atomizer go bad on me.

I have a new dse 801 and the wick is much larger than the prev. atty. Takes forever for the wick to get saturated enough for a good hit and it pushes the wadding halfway dome into the cart. I am refilling with e-juice every 4 or 5 hits. Meanwhile the atty gets so clogged it leaks a little from the batt. conection. Sometimes too i can remove the cart and hit straight from the atty. for a couple huge throat hits. Seems like the smaller wick gave me more consistant hits with less wicking time. Anybody?

You might find the culprit being that your not completely filling the carts.
