Are these the ones with the softer plastic tubes? It most likely depends on the juice you are using and how long before the tube will crack. As with all disposables, they do vary! Also, the user varies in how long they think they are performing well enough to keep.... I have had cartomizers that should have gone into the trash, but I just turned up the voltage and kept on using them!

Some juices, like cinnamon for example, are really harsh on the plastic and if you are using a heavy cinnamon, you will most likely get less use out of them!

I usually get 4+ weeks use from a Phoenix BC 2.6-2.8 ohm. I use the same one all day every day and vape 3+ml a day.
I do give them a good rinsing every 2-3 days and dry burn about once a week.
NOTE: I am using the older ones not the reborn, I haven't tried the new ones yet.

Same boat :D Only tossed 2 so far since release....

Wow, that is a lot of use! I am going to have to check these out!

I have original Phoenix BC's that I've been using since September. Of the original ten I bought I just retired the last two even though they still work. I rotated them a lot, rather than use one until it dies, and cleaned them after two fills. IMO, the less dry burning you have to do to clean the coil the better. Frequent light cleaning is better than having to burn off thick crud.

Initially, I had some issues with the Reborns when they first came out. Those issues were covered in this thread. I'm happy to say that my latest pack has only one plagued by light hits, and none have burned out prematurely. Hopefully QA issues after the change have been addressed.

In any case, the reborns that have been problem free have been holding up well. The oldest ones have lasted about 5 weeks so far.
