I ruined one atty 3 days into it when I first started. That was totally my fault tho. Since then, a little over 3 months, I have been using the same four attys with no loss in performance. I am a heavy vapor and rotate between 4 pvs during the day. I was expecting maybe 3 weeks per atty, so I have plenty spares on hand too.
I , like most of you have had some last for over a month and still work well. I just don't do anything to them except blow them out every so often though. My favorites are from Puresmoker. A bit more expensive than others, I know. But they seem to always be the ones that put out imo.
Oldest atty is a 510 and its 14 months old. Still works great though.
I just lost the wick on mine it is 6 mos old it still works, I just took the bridge out and drip with it now.
I purchased a bunch of EM-LR5 atties when they went on sale in May. Been rotating three of them in a Reo, eGo and Mr. Puffer. Wicks removed before first use.
One died last week (probably because I went two weeks without cleaning it). Another broke when I dropped the mod. Third is still going strong. Hot water/dry burn weekly. These things are fabulous for the price.

yeah i just blow mine out every other day or so and i dont vape heavly on it i was like a half pack a day smoker and now im even getting good with vaping just at night unless im at work then im not being kept occupied
the first 2 batteries in my starter kit lasted just over one month, then both died on the same day. I rolled out 3 more, one of which I just decided was only going to be used for VVs chocolate mint, since i can't seem to get the taste out of an atty even after cleaning. So of the other 2 one is still around and the other lasted about 3 days. The third one will forever smell like a thin mint.
Do atty's just die? or do they sometimes slowly fade away? I have yet another that technically seems to be working but isn't producing as much vapor as i'm accustomed to.

been about 2 months on my current atty. (510 LR). When i was using high VG mixes, i blew em out daily and an alcohol bath each week. Since i moved into a 80% PG, i dont blow em out anymore (never seem to need it), but i still rinse em with alcohol once a week or so.
I've got one atty that's still working after two months of heavy use, another that's worked well for over 6 weeks. I clean them weekly by soaking in vodka, rinsing with water, blowing out and letting them air dry.
I lost one atty when I tried a spearmint flavor e-juice that was so intense it burned my taste buds for hours. No amount of soaking would rid that atty of its horrid (to me) spearmint infection and I finally tossed it.
I use one atty for my all day menthol vape and one for my morning coffee Turkish vape because it seems to me that attys lose the purity of a flavor if you switch up juices on them. I've got two on stand-by for new flavor experiments and/or technical failures whichever happens first.

I just threw out my first atty today and it was one of the originals that came with my Riva kit on the 17th of September. I've got 6 others which are still going strong and were also purchased when I bought the kit.
I vape a LOT. And, I've been doing that for ten months. It's hard for me to judge atomizer life because I usually have 5 or 6 in rotation, several at at time ... I always have at least two complete PVs on my person. Having said that, in ten months, I've got two dead atomizers, and a fistfull of KR808 atomizers which I'm not going to bother with. Still use KR808 routinely, but if one ain't up to sniuff, it's tossed.
I have been extremely lucky with attys. I started vaping in May and have lost less than 10 attys. Most of those were actually murdered in de-bridging or alteration attempts. I've blown more batteries than attys.
Average span for me has been about 3 months before I notice the performance drop to a point where I needed to replace them. I cleaned them regularly about once every week and a half. Good lifespan/no complaints!
