I only use CE2 customizers and several were starting to go down hill, poor draw and burnt taste. Having taken several apart when they got that way, I came up with a way to somewhat clean them. Take a syringe, fill with water and squirt the water thru the threaded end. Also it will help to loosen the grit in the little cup that sets just sets below the coil with a needle. The grit is what mainly causes the poor draw and the grit also adds a 'NICE' flavor to the juice. After doing a couple, they are working fine, not quite as good as new, but a lot better than before cleaning. The main thing a bout this way of cleaning is that no juice need to be removed before cleaning. Just clean, blow a little bit on the coil, then vap.:vapor: Been using the same CE2's for over a month now, like using these better than trying to drip and refilling carts all the time.

Ok, heres how you clean them.

You open your trash can, you hold them over the can and you toss them in the bin and close it and never look back.

Look, if you are finding success in the Ce2's then good for you. The best waste to clean them is through hot hot water and then try burn the coils. But, even after that, the only way i got them to work was to direct drip them (Which defeats the purpose)

They don't wick fast enough. Bluntly said, gravity is working against you, you will not get the eliquid up the wick fast enough to vape successfully. VG they said was the problem "It's just too thick of a liquid" they said. Ok, so i tried 100% PG. Negative, didnt work.

even the clearomizers (or fluxomizers) i've tried and after about 75% eliquid you end up getting a burnt or dull taste.

if you like them and feel they are working, hot water will do the trick. i'm not comfortable running them in boiling water cause it ruined one of my clearomizers. i'd suggest just running it under hot hot water and then dry burning the coil to red.

That is all.
