Ego-Tank and atties in general: Maybe try this prior to utilizing your cleaning method of choice.

Thank you so much for posting this duck! I've been looking for a way to clean without ripping my Ego-t atty apart, or doing soaks, and was wondering if this would be an option. Sadly I've over budget for my vaping gear this month, but I have some 0nic nearly flavorless vanilla sitting around that I'll use for now and hopefully have good effect, I'm finding with the darker ejuice (Ultimate Vanilla atm from TV) that it seems to get clogged sooner, so hopefully a tank of the clearer stuff will help loosen it up!

I just resurrected a 510 XL Clearomizer by going back and forth between wet burns using pure vg and dry burns. With the tube off I would fill the cup that the coil is in with vg, boil it away, blot it dry, dry burn, and repeat. Eventually I was able to wipe away the heavy buildup between the coils with a very gentle stroke of the tip of a pin. After about three cycles, I was able to see the distinct lines of the glowing coil rather than a solid glowing red mass. I ended it by filling half way with vg and vaping on it for a little while. I can now taste my French Pipe juice without the slightest hint of a burnt taste for the first time since I got the bottle! This carto was on my table waiting to be tossed next time I clean the table off. It is now my best functioning vape!

i've been strickly sticking with the 95-100% VG.. i wonder if that's whats causing my atty's to gradually fail... i keep getting the 'burning taste' then have to reclean.. a couple days later i go through the same procedure..

i've only been dealing with VG but i've heard of the side effects of using PG.

maybe i should try it and see if it works for me.

Thank You
