I have a question that is prolly answered somewhere on this thread but too lazy to look. How are you cleaning your tank when you want to change flavors? I have a fresh, slotted boge but what do you suggest I rinse the tank out with? Do you take off the end caps or no? TIA :)
All I do is clean the tank and end caps (yes I take them off) in hot soapy water. Then I rinse them in hot water, dry them, reassemble and fill.

Sounds good to me. That should clean them quite nicely.

Since I rarely change from Menthol, I don't do this too often. I have a 2nd tank if I want to vape other eliquids and that one I clean between flavors..maybe. I have just wiped it with a tissue and called it "good".

I have years of working for our government, so I learned early on how to "skate" thru the challenging times.:ohmy:

But of course I do it "aesthetically".:vapor:

I haven't cleaned mine yet. I've been switching back and forth between two flavors that compiment each other. If you add the new flavor when almost empty, you taste the mix for a little bit, then then the new flavor!

When you do clean it, don't forget to lubricate with juice of pg before putting the tops back on... wouldn't want to crack your tank!

Yep Moo, I relubed the ends and they slipped on like butta :)

I quit doing that on my MAP because it made them slip out too easy. But the MAP has a thicker tank so maybe you have to grease that one up. It sure made my endc stay in place though. I can't wait for Mike to get his done.

OK... so how do you know when your carto is done or close to done. I put this fusion on at some point last week. It just isn't working well all day. The taste is off, it is more of burnt taste then the flavor that is in there... It is however firing OK. Is this what happens when a carto is done???

I tested it. It started off at 2.0ohms and now it is at 2.1ohms.

That's when I file 13 them and start on a new one.:thumb:

They can last months or minutes. There just isn't a fixed timeline for cartos. I usually get pretty good time out of one. The Mega 808 actually tasted better but it was off and it had been going around a month so I changed it. I've also changed them after a day. I don't take any chances when it comes to things I'm putting into my body.

Sound advise. As it was my first carto gone bad I wasn't sure. But before anyone even posted back I kind of felt the same way... it was tasting like burnt plastic, if I wanted to put something burnt in my lungs I would not be trying so hard to quit smoking! So I just threw it away, thats the reason I have 20 fusions in my vaping drawer!

Yuo people need to get serious about your tanks. I only have to fill this one once every 3 months.
