If I use cartos on my 510 gear, it is generally Boge 3.0 or 2.4 ohm soft tips. Both are great, with good heat-resistant filler and little to no taste of their own. I also use CE2 cartos (3.2 ohm). Can't say abouut the longevity of the CE2s, but I expect well over a month. The Boge cartos last well over a month for me, but I rotate several, so not a continuous use of just one.

My juices are either my own DIY VG juices (~10% flavor, ~10-15% distilled water, nic, VG).

When they start to get funky or boggy, I soak them for an hour or two in vodka, flush with hot water, dry in 200 deg oven, and reuse. I can get probably 5 or so washings, and many refills between each washing, before its too far gone.

Right now I am really digging the Boge 2.4 ohm cartos on a 3.7V PV with drip tip, so I can add a little juice occasionally and change up flavors a bit. Not sure of the lifetimes, but I've been using some of mine since Christmas. The key is to wash them as soon as funk starts setting in, or clog starts forming. The Boge filling seems to be really good at being washed clean.

I use blank 510 mega cartos that are suppose to be close to 3 ohms, I buy only from two suppliers, I do think they are both boge. I do no maintenance, I fill from the top, use a drip tip and don't leave it sit unused, rather I use the same one everyday. I do not vape till they are dried out, rather I keep topping them off, like a direct dripper would sort of do. I use them for up to four weeks. They never die, but I usually over use them because the taste does change, then I just throw them out. I use the same flavored juice everyday so I am kind of use to the over used carto flavor with this particular juice.

If I am using mulitple flavors/cartos, I put the caps on them and top them off with more liquid before using if they have been sitting for a few days. If they have been filled and sitting for a few weeks I normally just toss them out.

I will say that I over use mine and I do not believe it is recommended. Life span may also depend on brand and flavor of liquid and voltage you are vaping it at. I use mine at 6V.
