How long can I use a cartomizer?

[OrthodoxAtheist]

I have a similar experience to Rob. I drip-filled 1.7ohm LR Ressurrector cartomizers from CCV, and the first two I used each last me 7+ weeks, with no cleaning, and no reduction in quality or draw before taking a sudden dive in draw at which point I broke out a new one, since my daily cost of use was down at about $0.03. I use them on an eGo battery, with near-clear or totally-clear 66:33 PG liquid, so about close to perfect scenario for extending the life of cartomizers. I also can't vape non-menthol juice and if my 7 months of vaping have taught me anything, its that menthol seems to drastically reduce deposits. I've even had near-dead atomizers which have been reinvigorated (for 1-4 days) just by using menthol e-juice. The short life that many here have described is more like my experience with eGo's atomizers. If I could buy stock in Ressurrectors, I would.

I wonder if that's the case with all of the mint flavored juices. I noticed that the cartos I use with the wintergreen/spearmint/bavarian cream juice I mix seem to last much longer than the ones with non-mint flavors.

I've never seen a carto as "nasty" as the one in tj's pic....yuck...perhaps I throw mine out too soon....I usually toss when the draw becomes real difficult. I've been able to use a Kanger I had for almost 3 weeks but the flavor was suffering. I've never had one stop heating though.
