Atty problem

[zoeconner]

How do you know when an atty is bad? I have one that wont turn red when turned and dry burn but still does vape a little. Could it just be flooded?

You might need to just clean it. There's a thread on here somewhere about how to clean an atty.

These can benefit from cleaning although for me, when they get like this (no red glow) I think they're about to die, so this is the only time I clean mine (usually just blow them out). Cleaning is a last ditch attempt (for me) to resurrect them. Ive read for some members that they can get a few more weeks out of an atty this way, but I never have.
Look on the tips n tricks forum and hte maintenance forum for cleaning ideas.
I dont like spending too much time on atties, once they start going downhill I get new ones lol

i've seen a few people remove the bridge on these dying atties and use the for drip only with some sucess, could help if your waiting for a new atty
