Boge Cartomisers How Long Do They Last?

[dj9928]

I bought one of these for £1 just to try it out, wasn't hoping for much but have to say they are fantastic, and cheap as chips, how long does one generally last? Might stock up on a dozen or so of them for all the price of them

It mostly depends on the liquid. A week might be a good approximation. But you can clean them afterward and reuse them again. I've had good success doing that.

Higher VG liquid will gunk up the filler and coil some. Also darker liquids then to shorten the life span.

I read somewhere that disposable cartos grow some type of mold or something inside them.
as for me ... i would just clean them once every week or two and see what happens. (Boil mine in DISTILLED water)

fyi: I use cartos/tanks in my ego t setup .. the cartos give NO dry, nasty hits like the tank does .. but at the same time i learned to use the tank, and its gotten alot better.

Usually I get around 7 to 10 days on a 2.0 XL, I top off every couple hours to keep it nice and moist which helps keep it running strong. Dark Juice and sweetener will shorten the life span as they tend to gunk up the wick and element during use.
You can clean them, the best method I've heard is to put them in an ultrasound cleaner with vodka, I've yet to try it myself, but others on the forum do seem to get good results from that method.

Around a week, and then clean them. But they are supposed to be disposable, so they will only last soo long. And no, you don't need to worry about mold. PG and VG are both anti-bacterial.

I use VG Dekang RY-4 and I normally get about a week before the vapor production is down or they taste a little off.
I use punched XXL's in DCT'S, I think they're supposed to last longer when used this way but the VG effects them more, after the bad taste appears I throw 'em out - too much hassle to clean and you can get 10 for $9 from China.
