atomizers caromisers oh my!

[gijills]

so I am newish and am just really getting into trying different juices. I got a sample pack from Want 2 vape. I got a atomizer and some caromizers from my local B&M store. So the question is how do I drip. and how is best to clean out the atomizer afterwards. I got a little baby food jar and filled it with vodka and am soaking them but how long? Can caromizers be cleaned out or are they a toss out? at a $1.50 each I hope not. Any way a bit of advice would be much appreciated!!

Cleaning atomizers and cartomizers... is a difficult proposition at best... at least from my experience.

Cartomizers.... I have heard that some people have done it but... for most they are throw away after using.

Atomizers... you don't have the filler material in there but I have tried everything (almost) under the son including a hyper-sound cleaner and, my atomizers tend to develop scabs around the coils and, essentially no way that I have found gets rid of these scabs.

But, the development of scabs around the coil in the atomizers varies from juice to juice... with coffee juice the most clogging... and the one juice that I use the most... tends to hardly clog atomizers at all (lighter colored juices clog less) and I can go with the same atomizer at least one month of heavy usage and maybe 2-3 months.

Otherwise, I use clearomizers (because I can replace the heads for just $2.60) but cartomizers are a choice that a lot of people go with also.

Hope this helps.

I use both.
Attys taste a bit better but are for the most part more difficult.
They tend to leak but some are better than others.
Cartos on the other hand do not have quite as good a flavor but you can slap a big tank on them and vape long periods of time.
Attys clean a little easier but cartos can be cleaned. You just need to push and pull warm water in and out of them then puch and pull some vodka and let dry.
Both Attys and cartos have a life span though.
