Cleaning Attys

[Curlygirl27]

I am sorry if i am repeating this question but....

I have seen quite a few comments about cleaning attys. How often does one need to do that? What is your favourite way?

I have a luci right now which i am playing around with until i get off my buns and get something that's actually good. Will probably try out any suggestions on the luci but would really like to know for when i get the good one... thanks!!

I personally don't clean my atty's, I just blow them out once in a while if the performance drops. I think most people clean their atty's every week using this method:

wonder if that will work on my BLU.....been using my BLU for over a month now and it vapes like a champ. Gonna try cleaning the atomizer and see how better it does......wont do it though until my 510 gets in!!!

I, like Rosa, never clean my attys, and I have the original 3 that I bought three months ago, and they are still working great. I blow them out once or twice a day, never dry burn them, and never let them dry out while vaping.

I'm still using my originals from back in March. I did dry burn one once no problem - I had something in there that I just had to get out, it was worth it.

I clean mine once a week rinsing it out under hot tap water from the faucet. I blow it out then let it dry overnight. Carts work like new again!

Right when I started I was rinsing out in the sink a couple times a week but laziness kicked in and now like alot of people i just blow it out after vaping for a bit and seems to still work ok. Had the same ones for bout 4 months now. good luck

.. well, an update... tried the hot water method I heard about on here of soaking attys in hot water, blowing them out and letting dry... My atty no longer works. This could be a blessing in disguise since I want a different system anyway but also means i can't vape until i get the money together to get one.

Suggestions/ ideas on how to get my atty working again are welcome...

I alcohol soak mine about every two days.........then rinse in water/blow out into paper towels. Probably not necessary, but I get a LOT of crap out of them this way.

Let them dry for a couple of days and try them again. Sometimes people think they're dead when, actually, they just aren't totally dry yet.

Good luck!

+1 on Rosa's last note....Nightseer too. I rinse em with Isopropyl Alcohol, blow em out, let em dry. The Alcohol evaporates quickly. Some don't like it tho. I try to make sure I don't vape it, or soak em real long either (?something I read about glue in atties dissolving?).

With water, you can vape em "dry" in a minute or two. Add juice tho. "Dry" in this case means get rid of the water, not the juice. They will start working quickly. I don't inhale the water vaport, but do puff the atty to dry it.

Just FYI.
