Atomizers seem to be getting clogged

[mknick1219]

I've been vaping for about 2yrs now and have tried multiple things. I didn't care for cartomizers much since I liked being able to switch between flavors without carying different carts around and getting them mixed up. I tried some of those nice looking clearomizers but, the "improved" case on it kept cracking on me. In the end, I have stuck with just basic atomizers and dripping.

I noticed that pure PG liquids tended to leak from the atty more often so, I switched over to a 70/30 mix of PG/VG which I kind of like. The only problem is that it seems to clog up my atty pretty quick. I have pretty much stopped doing anything like soaking in cola or alcohol and use water and blowing them out, manually, to try and clean them out.

These 70/30 mixes don't seem to work too good if I fill in cartridges and I prefer dripping anyway. Is there something I'm missing that might keep my atty from getting clogged so easily? Seems to be a pain trying to unclog it, doesn't always work.

I removed the bridge from an atty about a year ago when I was still doing pure PG liquids, will that do anything to help prevent clogging? Or maybe just trying to pull those little fibers out from under the bridge?

Any tips/tricks would be appreciated, seem to be running through atties pretty quick ATM.

try expanding the airholes on the battery connection, helps increase airflow,
some people use 1/32 drill bits but i just use a fork, easier to control...

I drip 100% vg on Cisco 306's all day long. Blow them out with a can of compressed air every few days and done that's it. This one I'm on now has been going for well over a month now and still like new.
