Clearomizers turning white

[Madball]

I am new to vaping. going on 4 months. I've decided to make my own ejuice. But, I'm having bad luck with it. It's vapping well and taste great but my clearomizers are turning white then falling apart in a matter of two or three days. What is doing this?

I'm using 36mg nicotine in 25% pg and 75% vg. Mixing with vg. I picked this because I wanted the vap. Also using TFA flavoring from Myfreedomsmokes. I'm guessing here but I'm thinking it's the flavoring that I'm using. But I'm not finding anyone else having the same issues. What am I doing wrong ??

What flavoring are you using?

 

[Madball]

TFA Cinnamon Redhots

I believe flavors containing cinnamon will destroy plastic tanks.

 

[Madball]

That was my suspicion. Seeing that no one else was having that issue. Well there was one post but all they said was "I won't do that again" but didn't say what caused it.

Also the ones with citric acid can do that too.

Yep, it's the cinnamon.

Here is the most current list of tank/ce2 crackers List of known juices/flavors that crack tanks/ce2s/clearos

You can get CE2's with metal casings instead of plastic ones.

That's exactly why I asked what flavor

If you want cinnamon, I would get a glass tank setup.

WOW thanks guys. I was thinking I was doing something wrong. Turns out to be just the flavoring I was using. Thanks all for your comments. I will rush new flavor orders ASAP so I can keep vapping.

Just read on that list you posted DeviantDe that my new favorite, Spearmint, could do it too. Dang!

I will be purchasing one of these for my cinnamon flavors as I bought a lot of it lol.

Cinnamon melted the tip of my Stardust, but I replaced it with a stainless steel one. No trouble after that I could tell, but impossible to get the flavor out. My vivi nova mini seems fine, but I'm watching it very carefully and will probably order a metal tube for it soon

Dang, I bought a lot of that cinnamon flavor. I will be purchasing this to curve that problem.

Those look cool! But out of my price range for now.

On the glass tanks you might also want to go with stainless end caps.... I have delrin drip tips that the cinnamon juice ate as well, so I'm sure it would do the same to delrin end-caps in tanks


You can get a plain pyrex tank with SS end caps at Phiniac
Just click "clear tank included, SS caps only" in the drop down menu.
