How do you know when a cartomizer's done?

Noob here having a hard time telling whether my cartomizers are done. I've been switching between 5 cartomizers with different juices since Friday afternoon - vaping on some more than others. What's a telltale sign that a carto is done?

It still doesn't work well after a good cleaning.

Can you explain what you mean by "doesn't work well"?

Poor vapor and flavor, or if you really want to know it's dead completely - no vapor or flavor. Personally, I toss them when vapor and flavor are poor after I've given it a good cleaning.

What if there's still a lot of vapor but the flavor's been muted a bit?

That would be a personal decision and whether or not you want to continue burning up expensive juice in a poor performing carto. In other words, is it good enough to continue using it? You'll have to decide that.
