how long does your carto last?

As the title says. How long? Hours? Days? Weeks? Months? Let the community know.

Most mine last about a week or maybe more before I change them, some lasted me longer.

2 weeks for a Smoktech, 1 week for Boge.

I bought a bunch of Boge carto's split between 2 & 3 ohm last November. I have one tank I use them in. I have gone through 5 of them so far - averaging about 17 days per carto, but the last one lasted me an insane 6 weeks. Taking that one out of the picture, they last me about 8 days average.

2 weeks with my Smoktech single coils. BUT I can boil them and get at least one more use before tossing, sometimes more.

How do you go about boiling it? Do you just do the obvious and just through it in a pot of boiling water? Lol, sorry I actually haven't heard of this.

I use distilled water in a stainless steel pot. I end up boiling them three times ,changing the water between each. You'll notice that the water gets a little clearer each time. Sometimes I'll also put some high proof vodka in the water

After they have cooled off, I blow each one out really well and sit them on a sunny window sill for 24-48 hours to dry.

Hope that helps.
